Audio System Essential Information Additional Features
FUEL TANK CAPACITY/FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS:Your Aviator’s fuel tank can accommodate 22.5
gallons of fuel. Your vehicle is designed to use “Premium” unleaded fuel with an (R+M)/2 octane
rating of 91 or higher for optimum performance. The use of fuel with lower octane ratings may
degrade performance.
FUSES:If electrical components in your vehicle stop working, a fuse may have blown. (You’ll notice a
broken wire within the fuse.) For information on changing fuses, please consult your Owner’s Guide.
TIRE PRESSURE:Your tire pressure is properly set at the dealership according to the
recommended specifications found on the Tire Pressure Label located on the driver door jamb. Please
check your tire pressure during routine maintenance and seasonal changes. If the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System light stays illuminated after starting, immediately check your tire pressure.
Warning: Improperly inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly, possibly resulting
in loss of vehicle control.
CHANGING THE TIRES:Your spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system
sensor. The tire pressure monitoring system indicator light (if equipped) will illuminate when the
spare is in use. Replace the spare with the road tire as soon as possible. If your vehicle is equipped
with AWD, remember that a spare tire of a different size shall not be used. It can make your vehicle
difficult to control and can result in damage to driveline components. If you get a flat tire while
driving, do not apply the brake heavily. Instead, gradually decrease your speed. Hold the steering
wheel firmly and slowly move to a safe place on the side of the road.
•SPARE TIRE:Under the vehicle, just in front of the rear bumper.
•SPARE TIRE WINCH DRIVE NUT:Rear center of the cargo area, under a lid.
•JACK, LUG NUT WRENCH, JACK HANDLE AND WHEEL CHOCK:Behind the rear seat under the

2Headlamps
Rotate the headlamp control clockwise to the second position to
turn on the headlamps. Pull the headlamp control towards you to
turn on the foglamps. Rotate the control counterclockwise to
initiate the auto lamps. (This light-sensitive system turns your
exterior lamps on and off automatically. It also keeps the lights on
for approximately 20 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position.) To turn the system off, rotate the control
clockwise to the OFF position.
3 ABS Light
Your anti-lock braking system (ABS) detects the onset of wheel lockup
during brake applications and helps prevent wheels from locking
during extreme braking situations. The ABS warning light will
illuminate when you start your engine; however, if it stays on,
continues to flash or fails to illuminate, see your dealership's service
department immediately.
5Speed Control
You must be traveling at or above 30 miles per hour to use the
speed control system. Press ON to enable speed control. Press
SET + to set a speed. To set a higher speed, accelerate to the
desired speed, press and release SET +. To establish a lower
speed, depress the brake pedal; when the desired vehicle speed
is reached, press SET + /SET -. To return to a previously set speed,
press RES. To disengage speed control and erase the previously
programmed set speed, press OFF.
12Parking Brake Release
Pull the release lever to release the parking brake. Driving with the
parking brake on will cause the brakes to wear out quickly and
reduce fuel economy. The parking brake is not recommended to
stop a moving vehicle. However, if the normal brakes fail, the
parking brake can be used to stop your vehicle in an emergency.
Since the parking brake applies only the rear brakes, the vehicle’s
stopping distance will increase greatly and the handling of your
vehicle will be adversely affected.
11Advance Trac™ (if equipped)
By monitoring vehicle speed, yaw, lateral acceleration, and
intended direction, the AdvanceTrac™ system provides enhanced
traction and stability on slippery surfaces, or in emergency
maneuvers. The system defaults to on. If your vehicle should
become stuck, try switching the system off by pressing the
AdvanceTrac™ button on the center console. When the system is
functioning, a yellow icon will flash.
10Defrost Windshield
To clear thin ice and fog from the windshield, choose defroster
mode from the manual override controls; this control will
distribute outside or recirculated air through the windshield
defroster ducts and the side window demisters. To return to
automatic operation, press AUTO.
8Turn Signal/Wiper Washer Controls
For a single swipe with no wash, tap the end of the stalk briefly.
The bars of varying length are for intermittent wiper operation.
When in this position rotate the control upward for fast intervals
and downward for slow intervals. For three swipes with wash,
push and hold the end of the stalk. For a longer wash, push and
hold the end of the stalk for up to ten seconds.
For rear wiper operation, rotate the rear window wiper and
washer control to the desired position. Select INT 2 for normal
speed operation, INT 1 for intermittent operation, or OFF to turn
the rear wiper/washer off. For rear wash cycle, rotate (and hold
as desired) the rear wiper/washer control to either position. The
control will automatically return to the INT 2 or OFF position.
9Clock
Your clock is mounted on your instrument panel. Press the right
control to increase the time displayed, the left control to decrease the
time displayed.

4Service Engine Soon
This light will illuminate briefly when you start your vehicle to ensure
that the engine warning system is functional. If it comes on after the
engine is started, one of your engine’s emission control systems
may be malfunctioning. Or, it may stay on because your vehicle is out
of fuel, existing fuel quality is poor, or the fuel cap hasn’t been
properly tightened. If you have added high quality fuel or tightened
the fuel cap and the light continues to stay on, remember that it can
take three driving cycles for the light to turn off. (A driving cycle
consists of a cold engine startup followed by mixed city/highway
driving.) No additional vehicle service would be required.
