System (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Make sure that the garage door
and security device are free from
obstruction when you are
programming. Do not program the
system with the vehicle in the garage. Do not use the system with any
garage door opener that does
not have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal
Safety Standards (this includes any
garage door opener manufactured
before April 1, 1982). Note:
Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in
other vehicles as well as for future
system programming.
Note: We recommend that upon the
sale or lease termination of your

immediately. Do not drive your vehicle
if you smell exhaust fumes. Carbon
monoxide is present in exhaust fumes.
Take precautions to avoid its
dangerous effects. Important Ventilating
Information
If you stop your vehicle and the leave
the engine idling for long periods, we
recommend that you do one of the
following:
•
Open the windows at least 1 inch
(2.5 centimeters)
• Set your climate control to outside
air.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
(IF
EQUIPPED) WARNINGS
Failure to follow engine block
heater instructions could result
in property damage or serious
personal injury. Do not use your heater with
ungrounded electrical systems
or two-pronged adapters. There is a
risk of electrical shock. Note:
The heater is most effective
when outdoor temperatures are below
0°F (-18°C).
The heater acts as a starting aid by
warming the engine coolant. This
allows the climate control system to
respond quickly. The equipment
includes a heater element (installed
in the engine block) and a wire
harness. You can connect the system
to a grounded 120 volt AC electrical
source.
153
Starting and Stopping the Engine

We recommend that you do the
following for a safe and correct
operation:
•
Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension
cord that is product certified by
Underwriter ’s Laboratory (UL) or
Canadian Standards Association
(CSA). This extension cord must
be suitable for use outdoors, in
cold temperatures, and be clearly
marked Suitable for Use with
Outdoor Appliances. Do not use an
indoor extension cord outdoors.
This could result in an electric
shock or become a fire hazard.
• Use as short an extension cord as
possible.
• Do not use multiple extension
cords.
• Make sure that when in operation,
the extension cord plug and heater
cord plug connections are free and
clear of water. This could cause an
electric shock or fire.
• Make sure your vehicle is parked in
a clean area, clear of
combustibles.
• Make sure the heater, heater cord
and extension cord are firmly
connected.
• Check for heat anywhere in the
electrical hookup once the system
has been operating for
approximately 30 minutes. •
Make sure the system is unplugged
and properly stowed before driving
your vehicle. Make sure the
protective cover seals the prongs
of the block heater cord plug when
not in use.
• Make sure the heater system is
checked for proper operation
before winter.
Using the Engine Block Heater
Make sure the receptacle terminals
are clean and dry prior to use. Clean
them with a dry cloth if necessary.
The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0
kilowatt-hours of energy per hour of
use. The system does not have a
thermostat. It achieves maximum
temperature after approximately
three hours of operation. Using the
heater longer than three hours does
not improve system performance and
unnecessarily uses electricity.

Automatic Transmission
Adaptive Learning
This feature is designed to increase
durability and provide consistent shift
feel over the life of the vehicle. A new
vehicle or transmission may have firm
or soft shifts. This operation is
considered normal and will not affect
function or durability of the
transmission. Over time, the adaptive
learning process will fully update
transmission operation. Additionally,
whenever the battery is disconnected
or a new battery installed, the strategy
must be relearned.

Driving In Special Conditions
With All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
AWD vehicles are equipped for driving
on sand, snow, mud and rough roads
and have operating characteristics
that are somewhat different from
conventional vehicles, both on and off
the highway.
Under severe operating conditions,
the A/C may cycle on and off to
protect overheating of the engine.
Basic operating principles in
special conditions
•
Drive slower in strong crosswinds
which can affect the normal
steering characteristics of your
vehicle.
• Be extremely careful when driving
on pavement made slippery by
loose sand, water, gravel, snow or
ice. If Your Vehicle Goes Off the Edge of
the Pavement
•
If your vehicle goes off the edge of
the pavement, slow down, but
avoid severe brake application,
ease the vehicle back onto the
pavement only after reducing your
speed. Do not turn the steering
wheel too sharply while returning
to the road surface.
• It may be safer to stay on the
apron or shoulder of the road and
slow down gradually before
returning to the pavement. You
may lose control if you do not slow
down or if you turn the steering
wheel too sharply or abruptly.
• It often may be less risky to strike
small objects, such as highway
reflectors, with minor damage to
your vehicle rather than attempt a
sudden return to the pavement
which could cause the vehicle to
slide sideways out of control or
rollover. Remember, your safety
and the safety of others should be
your primary concern.
If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck WARNINGS
Always set the parking brake
fully and make sure the gearshift
is latched in P (Park). Turn the ignition
to the lock position and remove the
key whenever you leave your vehicle. If the parking brake is fully
released, but the brake warning
lamp remains illuminated, the brakes
may not be working properly. See your
authorized dealer.
