Power Outlets
Your vehicle is equipped with 12 Volt (15 Amp) power
outlets that can be used to power cellular phones, small elec-
tronics and other low powered electrical accessories. The
power outlets are labeled with either a “key” or a “battery”
symbol to indicate how the outlet is powered. Power outlets
labeled with a “key” are powered when the ignition is in the
MAR (ACC/ON/RUN) position, while the outlets labeled
with a “battery” are connected directly to the battery and
powered at all times.
NOTE:
• All accessories connected to the “battery” powered outlets should be removed or turned off when the vehicle is not in

Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator Warning Light (MIL)
The Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) is a part of an Onboard Diagnostic System
called OBD II that monitors engine and automatic
transmission control systems. This warning light will illu -
minate when the ignition is in the ON/RUN position before
engine start. After placing the ignition to the ON/RUN
position, if there is a problem with the Sentry Key System,
the Vehicle Security Light will turn on. This condition will
result in the engine being shut off after two seconds. If the
bulb does not come on when turning the ignition switch
from OFF to ON/RUN, have the condition checked
promptly.
NOTE:
This warning light will illuminate when the vehicle security
alarm system has detected an attempt to break into the
vehicle.
Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor
quality fuel, etc., may illuminate the light after engine start.
The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through
several typical driving styles. In most situations, the vehicle
will drive normally and will not require towing. When the engine is running, the MIL may flash to alert
serious conditions that could lead to immediate loss of
power or severe catalytic converter damage. The vehicle
should be serviced by an authorized dealer as soon as
possible if this occurs.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as referenced
above, can reach higher temperatures than in normal
operating conditions. This can cause a fire if you drive
slowly or park over flammable substances such as dry
plants, wood, cardboard, etc. This could result in death
or serious injury to the driver, occupants or others.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) on could cause damage to the vehicle control
system. It also could affect fuel economy and
driveability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss will soon occur.
Immediate service is required.3

SAFETY 105
Base SystemThis is the TPMS warning indicator located in the
instrument cluster.
The TPMS uses wireless technology with wheel rim
mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels.
Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the valve stem,
transmit tire pressure readings to the Receiver Module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important for you to check the tire pressure
in all of the tires on your vehicle regularly and to maintain
the proper pressure.
The TPMS consists of the following components:
• Receiver Module
• Four Tire Pressure Monitoring sensors
• Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light will
illuminate in the instrument cluster, an audible chime will be
activated, and the “Check tire pressure” text message will
display when one or more of the four active road tire pres -
sures are low. Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible, check the inflation pressure of each tire on your
vehicle, and inflate each tire to the vehicle’s recommended
cold placard pressure value. The system will automatically
update and the Tire Pressure Monitoring Light will extin
-
guish once the updated tire pressures have been received.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h) to receive this information.
Check TPMS Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Warning Light will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and remain on solid when a system
fault is detected, an audible chime will be activated and a
proper text message will be displayed. If the ignition key is
cycled, this sequence will repeat providing the system fault
still exists. The Tire Pressure Monitoring Warning Light will
turn off when the fault condition no longer exists. A system
fault can occur with any of the following scenarios:
1. Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next to facil -
ities emitting the same radio frequencies as the TPM
sensors.
2. Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting that affects radio wave signals.
3. Snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.

106 SAFETY
4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM sensors.
NOTE:
Your vehicle can be equipped with either Tire Service Kit,
compact spare tire or regular size spare tire (with or without
original TPMS sensor).
1. Tire Service Kit (original tire sealant – if equipped): Afterfixing the punctured tire with original tire sealant, the
original situation will be restored, so system will turn off
the telltale during the normal drive.
2. Compact Spare Tire – (if equipped): The compact spare wheel is not equipped with TPMS sensor. So when
mounted, during the normal drive the system will turn
on the telltale (flashing for approximately 75 seconds then
remains solid). This condition persists until a wheel
equipped with original TPMS sensor has been mounted
on the vehicle. 3. Regular size spare tire (not equipped with TPMS sensor):
When mounted, during the normal drive the system will
turn on the telltale (flashing for approximately 75 seconds
then remains solid). This condition persists until a wheel
equipped with original TPMS sensor has been mounted
on the vehicle. Then the system will be restored and the
telltale will turn off during the normal drive.
4. Regular size spare tire (equipped with TPMS sensor): When mounted, the telltale will turn off during the
normal drive.
5. In all the above cases please check the replacement tire inflation pressure before driving your vehicle.
6. In case of tire replacement, if the vehicle is driven for short periods of time, then the system can take a while to
be restored.
NOTE:
For a correct Tire Pressure Monitoring behavior, please wait
for about 20 minutes in key-off during each tire substitution.

156 SAFETY
Periodic Safety Checks You Should Make Outside
The Vehicle
Tires
Examine tires for excessive tread wear and uneven wear
patterns. Check for stones, nails, glass, or other objects
lodged in the tread or sidewall. Inspect the tread for cuts and
cracks. Inspect sidewalls for cuts, cracks, and bulges. Check
the wheel bolts for tightness. Check the tires (including
spare) for proper cold inflation pressure.
Lights
Have someone observe the operation of brake lights and
exterior lights while you work the controls. Check turn signal
and high beam indicator lights on the instrument panel.
Door Latches
Check for proper closing, latching, and locking.
Fluid Leaks
Check area under the vehicle after overnight parking for
fuel, coolant, oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes
are detected or if fuel, or brake fluid leaks are suspected, the
cause should be located and corrected immediately.
• NEVER place any objects under the floor mat (e.g.,
towels, keys, etc.). These objects could change the posi -
tion of the floor mat and may cause interference with
the accelerator, brake, or clutch pedals.
• If the vehicle carpet has been removed and re-installed, always properly attach carpet to the floor and check the
floor mat fasteners are secure to the vehicle carpet.
Fully depress each pedal to check for interference with
the accelerator, brake, or clutch pedals then re-install
the floor mats.
• It is recommended to only use mild soap and water to clean your floor mats. After cleaning, always check
your floor mat has been properly installed and is
secured to your vehicle using the floor mat fasteners by
lightly pulling mat.
