The Cruise Control system has two
control modes:
 Adaptive Cruise Control mode formaintaining an appropriate dis-
tance between vehicles.
 Normal (fixed speed) cruise control mode is for cruising at a constant
preset speed. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Normal (Fixed
Speed) Cruise Control Mode” in
this section.
NOTE: The system will not react
to preceding vehicles. Always be
aware of the mode selected.You can change the mode by using
the Cruise Control buttons. The two
control modes function differently. Al-
ways confirm which mode is selected.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL (ACC)
OPERATION
The speed control buttons (located on
the right side of the steering wheel)
operates the ACC system.
NOTE: Any chassis/suspension
modifications to the vehicle will
effect the performance of the
Adaptive Cruise Control. ACTIVATING ADAPTIVE
CRUISE CONTROL (ACC)
You can only activate ACC if the
vehicle speed is above 32 km/h.
When the system is turned on and
in the READY state, the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
displays “Adaptive Cruise Ready.”
When the system is OFF, the EVIC dis-
plays “Adaptive Cruise Control Off.”NOTE: You cannot enable ACC
under the following conditions:
 When you apply the brakes.
 When the parking brake is set.
 When the automatic transmis-
sion is in PARK, REVERSE or
NEUTRAL.
 When pushing the RES + button without a previously set speed in
memory.

If the sunshade is in the raised posi-
tion and the vehicle is placed in
REVERSE, the sunshade will auto-
matically fully lower. When the trans-
mission is shifted out of REVERSE
the sunshade will automatically re-
turn to the fully raised position after
approximately five seconds.

SYSTEM
The automatic load leveling system
will provide a level-riding vehicle un-
der most passenger and cargo loading
conditions.
A hydraulic pump contained within
the shock absorbers raises the rear of
the vehicle to the correct height. It
takes approximately 1.6 km of driving
for the leveling to complete depending
on road surface conditions.If the leveled vehicle is not moved for
approximately 15 hours, the leveling
system will bleed itself down. The ve-
hicle must be driven to reset the
system.

INFORMATION CENTER
(EVIC) DISPLAYS
The EVIC display consists of three
sections:
1. The top line where compass direc-
tion, odometer line and outside tem-
perature are displayed. 2.
The main display area where the
menus and pop up messages are dis-
played.
3.
The reconfigurable telltales section.
The main display area will normally
display the main menu or the screens of
a selected feature of the main menu.
The main display area also displays
"pop up" messages that consist of ap-
proximately 60 possible warning or in-
formation messages. These pop up
messages fall into several categories:
 Five Second Stored Messages
When the appropriate conditions oc-
cur, this type of message takes control
of the main display area for five sec-
onds and then returns to the previous
screen. Most of the messages of this
type are then stored (as long as the
condition that activated it remains ac-
tive) and can be reviewed from the
"Messages" main menu item. As long
as there is a stored message, an "i"
will be displayed in the EVIC's
compass/outside temp line. Examples
of this message type are "Right Front
Turn Signal Lamp Out" and "Low
Tire Pressure".

Warning Telltale is illuminated and
you continue operating the vehicle,
in some circumstances you could
cause the fluid to boil over, come in
contact with hot engine or exhaust
components and cause a fire.
 Electric Power Steering
Malfunction This telltale is on when the
Electric Power Steering is
not operating and needs
service. OIL CHANGE DUE
Your vehicle is equipped with an en-
gine oil change indicator system. The
“Oil Change Due” message will flash
in the EVIC display for approxi-
mately 10 seconds after a single chime
has sounded to indicate the next
scheduled oil change interval. The en-
gine oil change indicator system is
duty cycle based, which means the

FIVE-SPEED AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION –
3.0L DIESEL ENGINE
The shift lever position display (lo-
cated in the instrument cluster) indi-
cates the transmission gear range. You
must press the brake pedal to move
the shift lever out of PARK (refer to
“Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock
System” in this section). To drive,
move the shift lever from PARK or
NEUTRAL to the DRIVE position.
The electronically-controlled trans-
mission provides a precise shift sched-
ule. The transmission electronics are
self-calibrating; therefore, the first few
shifts on a new vehicle may be some-
what abrupt. This is a normal condi-
tion, and precision shifts will develop
within a few hundred kilometers.
Only shifting from DRIVE to PARK or
REVERSE when the accelerator
pedal is released and the vehicle is
stopped. Be sure to keep your foot on
the brake pedal when shifting be-
tween these gears.
The transmission shift lever has only
PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, and
DRIVE shift positions. Manual shifts
can be made using the “AutoStick®”
shift control (for versions/markets,
where provided; refer to
“AutoStick®” in this section). Mov-
ing the shift lever to the left or right
(-/+) while in the DRIVE position, or
tapping one of the steering wheel-
mounted shift paddles (-/+) (for
versions/markets, where provided),
will manually select the transmission
gear, and will display that gear in the
instrument cluster as 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
