KEY FOB
Your vehicle uses a key start ignition system.
The ignition system consists of a Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) key fob with an ignition
switch.
Key Fob
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the
doors and liftgate from distances up to ap-
proximately 66 ft (20 m) using a handheld
key fob. The key fob does not need to be
pointed at the vehicle to activate the system.
NOTE:
In the ON/RUN position, the lock button is
disabled. Only the unlock button is enabled.
To Unlock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push and release the key fob unlock button
once to unlock the driver's door only, or twice
to unlock all the doors and swing gate. Whenthe key fob unlock button is pushed, the
Illuminated Entry will initiate, and the turn
signal lights will flash twice.
To Lock The Doors And Swing Gate

• Ignition key removed from ignition
• Battery at an acceptable charge level
• System not disabled from previous remote
start event
• Vehicle security alarm not active
WARNING!
• Do not start or run an engine in a closed
garage or confined area. Exhaust gas
contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is
odorless and colorless. Carbon Monox-
ide is poisonous and can cause serious
injury or death when inhaled.
• Keep key fobs away from children. Op-
eration of the Remote Start System, win-
dows, door locks or other controls could
cause serious injury or death.
Remote Start Abort Message
The following messages will display in the
instrument cluster display if the vehicle fails to
remote start or exits remote start prematurely:
• Remote Start Aborted — Door Open
• Remote Start Aborted — Hood Open
• Remote Start Aborted — Fuel Low
• Remote Start Aborted — Swing Gate Open
• Remote Start Aborted — System Fault
The instrument cluster display message stays
active until the ignition is turned to the ON/
RUN position.
To Enter Remote Start
Push and release the remote start button on
the key fob twice within five seconds. The
vehicle doors will lock, the parking lights will
flash and the horn will chirp twice (if pro-
grammed). Then, the engine will start and the
vehicle will remain in the remote start mode
for a 15-minute cycle.NOTE:
• The park lamps will turn on and remain on
during remote start mode.
• For security, power window operation is
disabled when the vehicle is in the remote
start mode.
• The engine can be started two consecutive
times (two 15-minute cycles) with the key
fob. However, the ignition switch must be
cycled to the ON/RUN position before you
can repeat the start sequence for a third
cycle.
Remote start will also cancel if any of the
following occur:
• The engine stalls or RPM exceeds 2500.
• Any engine warning lamps come on.
• The hood is opened.
• The hazard switch is pushed.
• The transmission is moved out of PARK.
• The brake pedal is pushed.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
— IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle security alarm monitors the ve-
hicle doors, swing gate, and ignition for un-
authorized operation. While the vehicle secu-
rity alarm is armed, interior switches for door
locks are disabled. The vehicle security alarm
provides both audible and visible signals
when alarming. The horn will sound, the
headlights will turn on, the park lamps and/or
turn signals will flash repeatedly for three
minutes. If the disturbance is still present
(driver's door, passenger door, other doors,
ignition) after three minutes, the headlights,
park lamps and/or turn signals will flash for
an additional 15 minutes.
Rearming The System
If something triggers the alarm, and no action
is taken to disarm it, the vehicle security
alarm will turn off the horn after three min-
utes, turn off all of the visual signals after
15 minutes, and then the vehicle security
alarm will rearm itself.
To Arm The System
The vehicle security alarm will set when you
use the Remote Keyless Entry key fob to lock
the doors and swing gate, or when you use the
power door lock switch while the door is
open. After all the doors are locked and
closed, the vehicle security light (located on
the instrument cluster) will flash rapidly for
about 16 seconds to signal that the vehicle
security alarm is arming. During this 16-
second arming period, opening any door or
the swing gate will cancel the arming. If the
vehicle security alarm is successfully set, the
vehicle security light will flash at a slower
rate to indicate the vehicle security alarm is
armed.
To Disarm The System
To disarm the vehicle security alarm, you will
need to push the unlock button on the key
fob, or turn the ignition switch to the ON/
RUN position. If something has triggered the
vehicle security alarm in your absence, the
horn will sound three times, and the exterior
lights blink three times when you unlock the
doors. Check the vehicle for tampering.The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle; however, you can create
conditions where the vehicle security alarm
will arm unexpectedly. If you remain in the
vehicle and lock the doors with the key fob,
once the vehicle security alarm is armed
(after 16 seconds), when you pull the door
handle to exit, the alarm will sound. If this
occurs, push the unlock button on the key fob
to disarm the vehicle security alarm. You may
also accidentally disarm the vehicle security
alarm by unlocking the driver's door with the
key and then locking it. The door will be
locked but the vehicle security alarm will not
arm.
NOTE:
• Unlocking the doors with the manual door
lock plungers or the driver's door lock cyl-
inder will not disarm the vehicle security
alarm.
• When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.

There are two heated seat switches that allow
the driver and passenger to operate the seats
independently. The controls for each seat are
located on a switch bank near the bottom
center of the instrument panel.
You can choose from HI, LO or OFF heat
settings. Amber indicator lights in each
switch indicate the level of heat in use. Two
indicator lights will illuminate for HI, one for
LO and none for OFF.Push the switch once to select HI-level heat-
ing. Push the switch a second time to select
LO-level heating. Push the switch a third
time to shut the heating elements OFF.
When the HI-level setting is selected, the
heater will provide a boosted heat level dur-
ing the initial stages of operation. Then, the
heat output will drop to the normal HI-level.
If the HI-level setting is selected, the system
will automatically switch to LO-level after
approximately 30 minutes of continuous op-
eration. At that time, the number of illumi-
nated LEDs changes from two to one, indicat-
ing the change. The LO-level setting will turn
OFF automatically after approximately
30 minutes.
NOTE:
When a heat setting is selected, heat will be
felt within two to five minutes.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to
the skin because of advanced age,
chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord in-
jury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus-
WARNING!
tion or other physical condition must
exercise care when using the seat
heater. It may cause burns even at low
temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat or
seatback that insulates against heat,
such as a blanket or cushion. This may
cause the seat heater to overheat. Sit-
ting in a seat that has been overheated
could cause serious burns due to the
increased surface temperature of the
seat.
60/40 Split Folding Rear Seat — Four Door
Models
To provide additional storage area, each rear
seat can be folded flat to allow for extended
cargo space.
NOTE:
• Prior to folding the rear seat, it may be
necessary to reposition the front seat to its
mid-track position.Front Heated Seat Switches

ther information)
• Oil Change Required (with a single chime)
• ECO (Fuel Saver Indicator) — if equipped
Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) — If Equipped
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system is en-
abled on vehicles with a manual transmis-
sion, or when a vehicle with an automatic
transmission is in manual shift mode. The
GSI provides the driver with a visual indica-
tion when the recommended gear shift point
has been reached. This indication notifies
the driver that changing gear will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption. When the up
shift indicator is shown on the display, the
GSI is advising the driver to engage a higher
gear. When the down shift indicator is shown
on the display, the GSI is advising the driver
to engage a lower gear.
The GSI indicator remains illuminated until
the driver changes gear, or the driving condi-
tions return to a situation where changing gear
is not required to improve fuel consumption.
Oil Change Required
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil
change indicator system. The “Oil Change
Required” message will display in the instru-
ment cluster display for approximately
10 seconds after a single chime has sounded
to indicate the next scheduled oil change
interval. The engine oil change indicator sys-
tem is duty cycle based, which means the
engine oil change interval may fluctuate de-
pendent upon your personal driving style.
Unless reset, this message will continue to
display each time you turn the ignition switch
to the ON position. To turn off the message
temporarily, push and release theMENUbut-
ton. To reset the oil change indicator system
(after performing the scheduled mainte-
nance), perform the following procedure:

cated message and/or acoustic signal when
applicable. These indications are indicativeand precautionary and as such must not be
considered as exhaustive and/or alternative
to the information contained in the Owner’s
Manual, which you are advised to read care-
fully in all cases. Always refer to the informa-
tion in this chapter in the event of a failure
indication. All active telltales will display first
if applicable. The system check menu may
appear different based upon equipment op-
tions and current vehicle status. Some tell-
tales are optional and may not appear.
Red Warning Lights
— Air Bag Warning Light
This light indicates a fault with the air bag,
