INTRODUCTION This is a specialized utility vehicle designed for both on-road and of f-road use. It can go places and perform tasks for which conventional two-wheel drive enclosed vehicles were not intended. It handles and maneuvers differ ently from many passenger cars both on-r oad and off-r oad, so take time to become familiar with your vehicle.
NOTE: After you read the manual, it should be stor ed in the vehicle for convenient refer ence and remain with the vehicle when sold so that the new owner will be aware of all safety warnings.
Failure to use driver and passenger seat belts provided is a major cause of severe or fatal injury . In fact, the U.S. government notes that the universal use of existing seat belts could cut the highway death toll by 10,000 or more each year and could reduce disabling injuries by two million annually .

A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS Y our vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. This system consists of a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter with integrated ignition key and a W ireless Ignition Node (WIN) with integral ignition switch. Y ou can insert the double-sided key into the ignition switch with either side up.
Integrated Ignition Key The integrated ignition key operates the ignition switch. It also contains the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) trans- mitter and a valet key , which stores in the rear of the RKE transmitter . The valet key allows for entry into the vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or the RKE transmitter go dead.
NOTE: • If you try to remove the key befor e you place the shift lever in P ARK, it may become trapped temporarily in the ignition switch. If this occurs, rotate the key to the right slightly , then remove the key as described.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder If you open the driver’s door with the integrated ignition key in the ignition, a chime will sound to remind you to remove the key . NOTE: The Key-In-Ignition reminder only sounds when the integrated ignition key is placed in the LOCK or ACC position.
NOTE: • The Sentry Key 威 Immobilizer system is not compatible with aftermarket remote starting systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting pr oblems and loss of security protection.
NOTE: When having the Sentry Key 威 Immobilizer system serviced, bring all vehicle RKE transmitters with you to the authorized dealer . Customer Key Programming If you have two valid RKE transmitters with integrated keys, you can program new transmitters to the system by performing the following procedur e: 1.
General Information The Sentry Key 威 system complies with FCC rules Part 15 and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following conditions: • This device may not cause harmful interference. • This device must accept any interference that may be received, including interfer ence that may cause undes- ired operation.
V ehicle Security Alarm is arming. During this 16 second arming period, opening any door or the liftgate will cancel the arming. If the V ehicle Security Alarm success- fully arms, the V ehicle Security Light will flash at a slower rate to indicate the alarm is set.
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter . The RKE transmitter does not need not be pointed at the vehicle to activate the system. NOTE: Inserting the RKE transmitter into the ignition switch disables all buttons on that RKE transmitter; however , the buttons on the remaining RKE transmitters will continue to work.
Remote Key Unlock, Driver Door/All Doors First Press This feature lets you pr ogram the system to unlock either the driver’s door , or all doors, on the first press of the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter .
T o Lock the Doors Press and r elease the LOCK button on the RKE transmit- ter to lock all doors. The turn signal lights will flash and the horn will chirp to acknowledge the signal. Sound Horn with Remote Key Lock This feature will cause the horn to chirp when the doors are locked with the RKE transmitter .
Using the Panic Alarm T o turn the Panic Alarm feature on or of f, press and hold the P ANIC button on the RKE transmitter for at least one second and release. When the Panic Alarm is on, the headlights and park lights will flash, the horn will pulse on and off, and the interior lights will turn on.
1. Battery access is thr ough a door located on the rear of the fob. Insert a small, flat blade screwdriver into the slot and gently pry open the access door . 2. Remove and r eplace the batteries. A void touching the new batteries with your fingers. Skin oils may cause battery deterioration.
If your Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter fails to operate from a normal distance, check for these two conditions. 1. A weak battery in the RKE transmitter . The expected life of the battery is a minimum of three years. 2. Closeness to a radio transmitter such as a radio station tower , airport transmitter , and some mobile or CB radios.
NOTE: • If an engine fault is present the vehicle will start and then shut down 10 seconds later . • The park lamps will turn on and remain on during Remote Start mode. • For security , power window and power sunroof op- eration (if equipped) are disabled when the vehicle is in the Remote Start mode.
DOOR LOCKS Manual Door Locks Use the manual door lock plunger to lock the doors from inside the vehicle. If the plunger is down when the door is closed, the door will lock. Therefor e, make sure the key is not inside the vehicle before closing the door .
If you press the door lock switch while the keys ar e in the ignition switch, and the driver’s door is open, the doors will not lock. The rear doors cannot be opened fr om inside the vehicle until you pull up the lock plungers.
WINDOWS Power Windows The power window controls ar e located on the driver’s door trim panel. There is a single switch on the fr ont passenger door/rear doors which operates the fr ont passenger/rear passenger door windows. The window controls will operate only when the ignition switch is in the ON or ACCESSOR Y position.
Auto Down Both the driver and front passenger window switch has an “Auto Down” feature. Pr ess the window switch past the first detent, release, and the window will go down automatically . T o cancel the “Auto Down” movement, operate the switch in either the up or down direction and release the switch.
Resetting the Auto Up Feature Should the Auto Up feature stop working, the window probably needs to be r eset. T o reset Auto Up: Pull the window switch up and close the window com- pletely , then pull and hold the switch for one second.
open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur- rence and can be minimized. If the buf feting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunr oof opening to minimize the buffeting. LIFTGA TE T o open the liftgate, pull up (squeeze) on the handle and lift.
Liftgate Flipper Glass The liftgate flipper glass is also unlocked when the liftgate is unlocked. T o open the flipper glass, push up on the window switch located on the liftgate. W ARNING! T o avoid injury , stand back when opening. Glass may automatically rise.
W ARNING! Driving with the flipper glass open can allow poi- sonous exhaust gases into your vehicle. Y ou and your passengers could be injured by these fumes. Keep the flipper glass closed when you are operating the vehicle. OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety features in your vehicle are the r estraint systems.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Buckle up even though you are an excellent driver , even on short trips. Someone on the road may be a poor driver and cause a collision which includes you.
W ARNING! (Continued) • T wo people should never be belted into a single seat belt. People belted together can crash into one another in an accident, hurting one another badly . Never use a lap/shoulder belt or a lap belt for more than one person, no matter what their size.
W ARNING! • A belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly . The lap portion could ride too high on your body , possibly causing internal injuries. Always buckle your belt into the buckle nearest you. • A belt that is too loose will not protect you as well.
W ARNING! (Continued) • A belt that is worn under your arm is very danger - ous. Y our body could strike the inside surfaces of the vehicle in a collision, increasing head and neck injury . A belt worn under the arm can cause internal injuries. Ribs aren’t as strong as shoulder bones.
6. T o release the belt, push the r ed button marked PRESS on the buckle. The belt will automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary , slide the latch plate down the webbing to allow it to retract fully . W ARNING! A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection.
As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will prefer a lower position, and if you ar e taller than average, you’ll prefer a higher position. When you r elease the anchorage, try to move it up or down to make sure that it is locked in position.
How to Disengage the Automatic Locking Mode Disconnect the combination lap/shoulder belt and allow it to retract completely to disengage the Automatic Locking mode and activate the V ehicle Sensitive (Emer- gency) Locking mode.
NOTE: These devices are not a substitute for pr oper seat belt placement by the occupant. The seat belt must still be worn snugly and positioned properly . The pretensioners ar e triggered by the Occupant Re- straint Control (ORC). Like the fr ont airbags, the preten- sioners are a single use item.
3. W ithin 60 seconds of starting the vehicle, unbuckle and then re-buckle the driver’s seat belt at least thr ee times within 10 seconds, ending with the seat belt buckled. 4. T urn the ignition key to the OFF position. A single chime will sound to signify that you have successfully completed the programming.
W ARNING! Using a seat belt extender when not needed can increase the risk of injury in a collision. Only use when the lap belt is not long enough when it is worn low and snug, and in the recommended seating positions. Remove and store the extender when not needed.
The front airbags have a multistage inflator design. This may allow the airbags to have differ ent rates of inflation that are based on collision severity and occupant size. This vehicle is equipped with window bags to protect the driver , and front and r ear passengers sitting next to a window .
W ARNING! • Do not put anything on or around the front airbag covers or attempt to manually open them. Y ou may damage the airbags and you could be injured because the airbags are no longer functional. These protective covers for the airbag cushions are designed to open only when the airbags are inflat- ing.
front airbags work with the instr ument panel knee bol- sters to provide impr oved protection for the driver and front passenger . W indow bags also work with seat belts to improve occupant pr otection. The seat belts are designed to pr otect you in many types of collisions.
Y ou should read the instructions pr ovided with your child restraint to make sur e that you are using it pr operly . 2. All occupants should use their lap and shoulder belts properly . 3. The driver and fr ont passenger seats should be moved back as far as practical to allow the front airbags r oom to inflate.
Airbag System Components The airbag system consists of the following: • Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) • Airbag W arning Light • Driver Airbag • Passenger Airbag • Side Curtain Airbags abo.
• The ORC also turns on the Airbag W arning Light for 2.5 to 8 seconds for a self-check when the ignition is first turned on. After the self-check, the Airbag W arning Light will turn off. If the ORC detects a malfunction in any part of the system, it turns on the Airbag W arning Light either momentarily or continuously .
• The Side Impact SRS Side Curtain Airbags are de- signed to activate only in certain side or rollover collisions. When the Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) detects a collision requiring the window bags to inflate, it signals the inflators on the crash side of the vehicle, and both sides of the vehicle when rollover is sensed.
abrasions are similar to friction r ope burns or those you might get sliding along a carpet or gymnasium floor . They are not caused by contact with chemicals. They are not permanent and normally heal quickly . However , if you haven’t healed significantly within a few days, or if you have any blistering, see your doctor immediately .
NOTE: The interior lights can only be deactivated if the key is removed fr om the ignition switch or the vehicle is driven. Maintaining Y our Airbag System W ARNING! • Modifications to any part of the airbag system could cause it to fail when you need it.
Airbag W arning Light Y ou will want to have the airbag system ready to inflate for your protection in an impact. The airbag system is designed to be maintenance free.
• Under certain circumstances, EDR data may not be recor ded (e.g., loss of battery power). In conjunction with other data gathered during a com- plete accident investigation, the electronic data ma.

enough for an adult safety belt. Always check the child seat Owner’s Manual to ensure you have the right seat for your child. Use the restraint that is corr ect for your child. W ARNING! In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby , can become a missile inside the vehicle.
W ARNING! • Rearward-facing child seats must NEVER be used in the front seat of a vehicle with the front passen- ger airbag unless the airbag is turned off. An airbag deployment could cause severe injury or death to infants in this position. • Improper installation can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint.
designed to keep the lap portion tight around the child restraint so that it is not necessary to use a locking clip. If the seat belt has a cinching latch plate, pulling up on the shoulder portion of .
NOTE: For additional information refer to www .seatcheck.org or call 1-866-SEA TCHECK. Older Children and Child Restraints Children who weigh mor e than 20 lbs (9 kg), and who are older than one year , can ride forward-facing in the vehicle.
LA TCH — Child Seat Anchorage System (Lower Anchors and T ether for CHildren) Y our vehicle’s rear seat is equipped with the child restraint anchorage system called LA TCH.
If you are installing LA TCH-compatible child restraints in adjacent rear seating positions, you can use the LA TCH anchors or the vehicle’s seat belt for the outboard position, but you must use the vehicle’s seat belt at the center position.
In addition, there ar e tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located on the back of the seat. Many , but not all restraint systems will be equipped with separate straps on each side, with each having a hook or connector for attachment to the lower anchorage and a means of adjusting the tension in the strap.
W ARNING! Improper installation of a child restraint to the LA TCH anchorages can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint.
the buckle, turn the buckle around, and insert the latch plate into the buckle again. If you still can’t make the child restraint secur e, try a differ ent seating position. T o attach a child restraint tether strap: Route the tether strap over the seatback and attach the hook to the tether anchor located on the back of the seat.
W ARNING! An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap. T ransporting Pets Airbags deploying in the front seat could harm your pet.
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation. This should be considered as a normal part of the br eak-in and not interpreted as an indication of dif ficulty . SAFETY TIPS T ransporting Passengers NEVER TRANSPOR T P ASSENGERS IN THE CARGO AREA.
Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in confined areas any longer than needed to move your vehicle in or out of the area. If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with the engine running, adjust your heating or cooling contr ols to force outside air into the vehicle.
Airbag W arning Light The light should come on and remain on for six to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first turned ON. If the light is not lit during starting, see your authorized dealer . If the light stays on, flickers, or comes on while driving, have the system checked by an autho- rized dealer .

Engine Idling - In Cold W eather A void prolonged idling in ambient temperatur es below 0°F (-18°C). Long periods of idling may be harmful to your engine because combustion chamber temperatures can drop so low that the fuel may not burn completely .
• 5.7L Engine — bundled and fastened to the injector harness. • 3.0L Diesel Engine — on the passenger side of the vehicle, mounted on a stud between the fresh airbox and coolant reservoir . W ARNING! Remember to disconnect the cord before driving.
W ARNING! It is dangerous to move the shift lever out of P ARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly on the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly forward or in reverse. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something.
5. Using the scr ewdriver , reach into the manual override opening. Press and hold the shift lock lever down. 6. Move the shift lever into the NEUTRAL position. 7. The vehicle may then be started in NEUTRAL. Have your vehicle inspected by your local authorized dealer , if the shift lock manual override has been used.
P ARK This gear position supplements the parking brake by locking the transmission. The engine can be started in this range. Never use P ARK while the vehicle is in motion. Apply the parking brake when leaving the vehicle in this range. Always apply the parking brake first, then place the shift lever into the P ARK position.
NOTE: T owing the vehicle, coasting, or driving for any other reason with the shift lever in NEUTRAL can result in severe transmission damage. Refer to “Recr eational T owing” in Section 5 and “T owing a Disabled V ehicle” in Section 6 of this manual.

The least amount of accelerator pedal pressur e to main- tain the rocking motion, without spinning the wheels or racing the engine, is most effective. Racing the engine or spinning the wheels, due to the frustration of not fr eeing the vehicle, may lead to transmission overheating and failure.
Quadra-T rac II 姞 Operating Instructions/Precautions — If Equipped The Quadra-T rac II 威 transfer case is fully automatic in the normal driving 4WD HI mode. The Quadra-T rac II 威 transfer case provides thr ee mode positions — 4WD HI, NEUTRAL, and 4WD LOW .
Shift Positions For additional information on the appropriate use of each transfer case mode position, see the information below: 4WD HI All roads surfaces such as ice, snow , gravel, sand, and dry hard pavement. NEUTRAL Disengages both the front and r ear driveshafts from the powertrain.
4WD LOW to 4WD HI W ith the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), key ON or engine running, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL, and raise the transfer case T -handle. The “4WD LOW” indicator light in the instrument cluster , will flash and go out when the shift is complete.
NEUTRAL Shift Procedure 1. Key ON, engine of f. 2. V ehicle stopped, with foot on brake. 3. Place transmission into NEUTRAL. 4. Hold down the NEUTRAL “pin” switch (with a pen, etc.) for four seconds until the LED lamp by the switch starts to blink indicating shift in progr ess.
Quadra-Drive II 姞 System — If Equipped The optional Quadra-Drive II 威 System features thr ee torque transfer couplings. The couplings include ELSD (Electronic Limited-Slip Dif ferential) fr ont and rear axles and Quadra-T rac II 威 transfer case.
OFF-ROAD DRIVING TIPS NOTE: Prior to off-r oad driving, remove the fr ont air dam to prevent damage. The fr ont air dam is attached to the lower front fascia with quarter turn fasteners, and can be removed by hand. When T o Use 4WD LOW Range — If Equipped When off-r oad driving, shift to 4WD LOW for additional traction.
Flowing W ater If the water is swift flowing and rising (as in storm run-of f) avoid crossing until the water level recedes and/or the flow rate is reduced. If you must cr oss flowing water avoid depths in excess of 9 in (23 cm). The flowing water can erode the str eambed causing your vehicle to sink into deeper water .
Hill Climbing NOTE: Before attempting to climb a hill, determine the conditions at the crest and/or on the other side. Before climbing a steep hill, shift the transmission to a lower gear and shift the transfer case to 4WD LOW . Use first gear and 4WD LOW for very steep hills.
T raction Downhill Shift the transmission into a low gear , and the transfer case into 4WD LOW range. Let the vehicle go slowly down the hill with all four wheels turning against engine compression drag. This will permit you to contr ol the vehicle speed and direction.
W ARNING! Abrasive material in any part of the brakes may cause excessive wear or unpredictable braking. Y ou might not have full braking power when you need it to prevent an accident. If you have been operating your vehicle in dirty conditions, get your brakes checked and cleaned as necessary .
W ARNING! Continued operation with reduced power steering assist could pose a safety risk to yourself and others. Service should be obtained as soon as possible. CAUTION! Prolonged operation of the steering system at the end of the steering wheel travel will increase the steering fluid temperature and it should be avoided when possible.
W ARNING! Fluid level should be checked on a level surface and with the engine off to prevent injury from moving parts and to ensure accurate fluid level reading. Do not overfill. Use only manufacturers recommended power steering fluid. If necessary , add fluid to restore to the pr oper indicated level.

wheel lock-up and help avoid skidding on slippery surfaces. All vehicle wheels and tires must be the same size and type, and tires must be pr operly inflated, to produce accurate signals for the computer .
W ARNING! (Continued) • The ABS cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, following another vehicle too closely , or hydro- planing.
• Do not drive too fast for road conditions, especially when roads ar e wet or slushy . A wedge of water can build up between the tire tr ead and the road.
W ARNING! ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. ABS cannot prevent accidents, in- cluding those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro- planing.
benefit of the system, you must apply continuous brak- ing pressur e during the stopping sequence (do not “pump” the brakes). Do not reduce brake pedal pr essure unless braking is no longer desired. Once the brake pedal is released, the BAS is deactivated.
NOTE: Anytime the ESP system is in the “Full Of f” mode, ERM is disabled. Refer to ESP (Electr onic Stability Program) for a complete explanation of the available ESP modes. W ARNING! Many factors, such as vehicle loading, road condi- tions and driving conditions, influence the chance that wheel lift or rollover may occur .
• Understeer - when the vehicle is turning less than appropriate for the steering wheel position. The ESP/TCS Indicator Light located in the instrument cluster , starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and the ESP system becomes active. The ESP/TCS Indicator Light also flashes when TCS is active.
High Range (4WD Models) or 2WD Models On This is the normal operating mode for ESP in 4WD HIGH range and in 2WD vehicles. Whenever the vehicle is started or the transfer case (if equipped) is shifted from 4WD LOW range or NEUTRAL back to 4WD HIGH range, the ESP system will be in this “On” mode.
NOTE: T o improve the vehicle’s traction when driving with snow chains, or starting off in deep snow , sand, or gravel, it may be desirable to switch to the “Partial Off” mode by pressing the ESP OFF switch.
W ARNING! W ith the ESP switched off, the enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESP and ERM are unavailable. In an emergency evasive maneuver , the ESP and ERM systems will not engage to assist in maintaining stability . The “Full Off” ESP mode is intended for off-road use only .

period of time after the driver takes their foot off of the brake pedal. If the driver does not apply the throttle during this short period of time, the system will release brake pressur e and the vehicle will roll down the hill.
W ARNING! • If you use a trailer brake controller with your trailer , your trailer brakes may be activated and deactivated with the brake switch. If so, when the brake pedal is released there may not be enough brake pressure to hold the vehicle and trailer on a hill and this could cause a collision with another vehicle or object behind you.
HDC (Hill Descent Control) (4WD Models With NV245 T wo–Speed T ransfer Case Only) HDC maintains vehicle speed while descending hills during off-r oad driving situations and is available in 4WD LOW range only . T o enable HDC (transfer case must be in 4WD LOW range), press the HDC switch.

NOTE: • The following table shows examples on how to calcu- late total load, cargo/luggage, and towing capacities of your vehicle with varying seating configurations and number and size of occupants. This table is for illustration purposes only and may not be accurate for the seating and load carry capacity of your vehicle.
334 ST ARTING AND OPERA TING.
W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Unequal tire pressures from one side of the vehicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to the right or left. • Always drive with each tire inflated to the recom- mended cold tire inflation pressure. Economy Improper inflation pr essures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tir e tread.
CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap (if equipped). This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage it. Inflation pressur es specified on the placard ar e always cold tire inflation pr essure.
loading may be requir ed for high-speed vehicle opera- tion. Refer to original equipment or an authorized tire dealer for recommended safe operating speeds, loading and cold tire inflation pr essures. W ARNING! High speed driving with your vehicle at or above maximum load is dangerous.
W ARNING! T emporary use spare tires are for emergency use only . W ith these tires, do not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h). T emporary use spare tires have limited tread life. When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the temporary use spare tire needs to be replaced.
W ARNING! The limited-use spare tires are for emergency use only . Installation of this limited-use spare tire affects vehicle handling. W ith this tire, do not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h). Keep inflated to the cold tire inflation pressure listed on either your tire placard or limited-use spare tire and wheel assembly .
These indicators are molded into the bottom of the tr ead grooves. They will appear as bands when the tr ead depth becomes 1/16 in (2 mm). When the indicators appear in two or more adjacent gr ooves, the tire should be r e- placed. Many states have laws requiring tir e replacement at this point.
Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with as little exposure to light as possible. Pr otect tires fr om contact with oil, grease, and gasoline. Replacement Tires The tires on your new vehicle pr ovide a balance of many characteristics. They should be inspected regularly for wear and correct cold tir e inflation pressur e.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Failure to equip your vehicle with tires having adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire failure and loss of vehicle control. CAUTION! Replacing original tires with tires of a different size may result in false speedometer and odometer read- ings.
TIRE ROT A TION RECOMMENDA TIONS T ires on the front and r ear axles of vehicles operate at differ ent loads and perform differ ent steering, handling, and braking functions. For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates and develop irregular wear patterns.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS) The T ire Pressur e Monitoring System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pr essure based on the vehicle recommended cold tir e pressur e. The tire pr essure will vary with temperatur e by about 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (–1 1°C).
For example, your vehicle has a recommended cold (parked for more than thr ee hours) tire pr essure of 33 psi (227 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the measured tir e pressur e is 28 psi (193 kPa), a tempera- ture dr op to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease the tir e pressur e to approximately 24 psi (165 kPa).
NOTE: • The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tir e care and maintenance, or to provide warning of a tir e failure or condition. • The TPMS should not be used as a tire pr essure gauge while adjusting your tire pr essure. • Driving on a significantly under-inflated tir e causes the tire to over heat and can lead to tire failur e.
A tire pressur e monitoring sensor is located in the spare wheel, if the vehicle is equipped with a matching full-size spare wheel and tir e assembly .

for optimum performance. The use of premium gasoline is not recommended, as it will not pr ovide any benefit over regular gasoline in these engines. Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not harmful to your engine. However , continued heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause damage and immediate service is requir ed.
CAUTION! DO NOT use gasoline containing Methanol. Use of these blends may result in starting and drivability problems and may damage critical fuel system com- ponents. Problems that r esult from using methanol/gasoline blends are not the r esponsibility of the manufacturer .
blended with MMT provides no performance advantage beyond gasoline of the same octane number without MMT . Gasoline blended with MMT reduces spark plug life and reduces emission system performance in some vehicles. The manufacturer r ecommends that gasoline without MMT be used in your vehicle.
• The use of fuel additives which are now being sold as octane enhancers is not recommended. Most of these products contain high concentrations of methanol. Fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems resulting fr om the use of such fuels or additives is not the responsibility of the manufactur er .
FUEL REQUIREMENTS (DIESEL ENGINES) NOTE: Federal law requires that you must fuel this vehicle with Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel (15 ppm Sulfur maximum) and prohibits the use of Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel (500 ppm Sulfur maxi- mum) to avoid damage to the emissions control system.
Diesel fuel is seldom completely free of water . T o prevent fuel system trouble, drain the accumulated water fr om the fuel/water separator using the provided fuel/water separator drain. If you buy good quality fuel and follow the cold weather advice above, fuel conditioners should not be requir ed in your vehicle.
CAUTION! Only vehicles with the E-85 fuel filler cap (gas cap) can operate on E-85. ETHANOL FUEL (E-85) E-85 is a mixture of appr oximately 85% fuel ethanol and 15% unleaded gasoline. W ARNING! Ethanol vapors are extremely flammable and could cause serious personal injury .
For best results, a refueling pattern that avoids alternat- ing between E-85 and unleaded gasoline is recom- mended. When you do switch fuel types it is recommended that: • you do not add less than .
consumption. Y ou can expect your MPG and your driv- ing range to decrease by about 30% compar ed to gasoline operation. Replacement Parts All components in your Flexible Fuel V ehicle (FFV) are designed to be compatible with ethanol. Always be sur e that your vehicle is serviced with correct ethanol com- patible parts.
CAUTION! • Damage to the fuel system or emission control system could result from using an improper fuel cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap could let impu- rities into the fuel system. Also, a poorly fitting aftermarket cap can cause the Malfunction Indica- tor Light (MIL) to illuminate, due to fuel vapors escaping from the system.
W ARNING! • Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the vehicle when the gas cap is removed or the tank filled. • Never add fuel when the engine is running. This is in violation of most state and federal fire regula- tions and will cause the malfunction indicator light to turn on.
CAUTION! Damage to the fuel system or emission control sys- tem could result from using an improper fuel tank filler cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap could let impurities into the fuel system.
Each axle’s GA WR is determined by the components in the system with the lowest load carrying capacity (axle, springs, tires, or wheels). Heavier axles or suspension components, sometimes specified by purchasers for in- creased durability , does not necessarily increase the ve- hicle’s GVWR.
the front or r ear axles has been exceeded, but the total load is within the specified GVWR. If so, weight must be shifted from fr ont to rear , or rear to front, as appr opriate until the specified weight limitations are met. Stor e the heavier items down low and be sure that the weight is distributed equally .
Gross T railer W eight (GTW) The GTW is the weight of the trailer plus the weight of all cargo, consumables and equipment (permanent or tem- porary) loaded in or on the trailer in its ⬙ loaded and ready for operation ⬙ condition. The r ecommended way to measure GTW is to put your fully loaded trailer on a vehicle scale.

T railer And T railer T ongue Weight Always load a trailer with 60% to 65% of the weight in the front of the trailer . This places 10% to 15% of the Gross T railer W eight (GTW) on the tow hitch of your vehicle.
NOTE: Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle. Also, additional factory-installed options, or authorized dealer-installed options, must be considered as part of the total load on your vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Improper towing can lead to an injury accident. Follow these guidelines to make your trailer tow- ing as safe as possible: • When hauling cargo or towing a trailer , do not over- load your vehicle or trailer .
T owing Requirements — T ires − Do not attempt to tow a trailer while using a compact spare tir e. − Proper tir e inflation pressur es are essential to the safe and satisfactory operation of your vehicle. Refer to “T ires – General Information” for proper tir e inflation procedur es.
CAUTION! If the trailer weighs more than 1,000 lbs (454 kg) loaded, it should have its own brakes and they should be of adequate capacity . Failure to do this could lead to accelerated brake lining wear , higher brake pedal effort, and longer stopping distances.
The electrical connections are all complete to the vehicle but you must mate the harness to a trailer connector . Refer to the following illustrations.
T owing Tips Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping and backing the trailer in an area away fr om heavy traffic. Automatic T ransmission The DRIVE range can be selected when towing. How- ever , if frequent shifting occurs while in this range, the TOW/HAUL mode (if equipped), or a lower gear range, should be selected.
Cooling System T o reduce potential for engine and transmission over - heating, take the following actions: − City Driving When stopped for short periods of time, shift the trans- mission into NEUTRAL and increase engine idle speed. − Highway Driving Reduce speed.

The engine oil filler cap also shows the recommended engine oil viscosity for your vehicle. For information on engine oil filler cap location, refer to “Engine Compart- ment” in this section.
W ARNING! The air induction system (air cleaner , hoses, etc) can provide a measure of protection in the case of engine backfire. Do not remove the air induction system (air cleaner , hoses, etc.) unless such removal is necessary for repair or maintenance.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. W ash hands after handling. CAUTION! • It is essential when replacing the cables on the battery that the positive cable is attached to the positive post, and the negative cable is attached to the negative post.
W ARNING! (Continued) • The air conditioning system contains refrigerant under high pressure. T o avoid risk of personal injury or damage to the system, adding refrigerant or any repair requiring lines to be disconnected should be done by an experienced repairman.
Windshield Wiper Blades Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades and the windshield periodically with a sponge or soft cloth and a mild nonabrasive cleaner to remove accumulations of salt or road film. Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long periods may cause deterioration of the wiper blades.
W ARNING! Commercially available windshield washer solvents are flammable. They could ignite and burn you. Care must be exercised when filling or working around the washer solution. Exhaust System The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust system.
Under normal operating conditions, the catalytic con- verter will not requir e maintenance. However , it is im- portant to keep the engine properly tuned to assur e proper catalyst operation and pr event possible catalyst damage. CAUTION! Damage to the catalytic converter can result if your vehicle is not kept in proper operating condition.
T o minimize the possibility of catalytic converter dam- age: • Do not shut off the engine or interr upt the ignition, when the transmission is in gear and the vehicle is in motion. • Do not try to start the engine by pushing or towing the vehicle.
accumulation of bugs, leaves, etc. If dirty , clean by gently spraying water from a gar den hose vertically down the face of the condenser . Check the engine cooling system hoses for brittle rubber , cracking, tears, cuts, and tightness of the connection at the coolant recovery bottle and radiator .
CAUTION! Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze), other than the specified HOA T engine coolant (antifreeze), may result in engine damage and may decrease corrosion protection.
• Mix a minimum solution of 50% HOA T engine coolant (antifreeze) and distilled water . Use higher concentra- tions (not to exceed 70%) if temperatures below -34°F (-37°C) are anticipated. • Use only high purity water such as distilled or deion- ized water when mixing the water/engine coolant (antifreeze) solution.
W ARNING! • The warning words DO NOT OPEN HOT on the cooling system pressure cap are a safety precau- tion. Never add engine coolant (antifreeze) when the engine is overheated. Do not loosen or remove the cap to cool an overheated engine. Heat causes pressure to build up in the cooling system.
of this. As long as the engine operating temperatur e is satisfactory , the coolant bottle need only be checked once a month. When additional engine coolant (antifreeze) is needed to maintain the proper level, it should be added to the coolant bottle.
• Keep the front of the radiator clean. If your vehicle is equipped with air conditioning, keep the front of the condenser clean. • Do not change the thermostat for Summer or W inter operation. If replacement is ever necessary , install ONL Y the corr ect type thermostat.
W ith disc brakes, the fluid level can be expected to fall as the brake linings wear . However , an unexpected drop in fluid level may be caused by a leak and a system check should be conducted. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in this section for the correct fluid type.
Selection of Lubricant Use only the manufacturer’s r ecommended fluid. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in this section for correct fluid type.
Automatic T ransmission Selection of Lubricant It is important that the proper lubricant is used in the transmission to assure optimum transmission perfor - mance. Use only the manufacturer’s r ecommended trans- mission fluid. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in this section for correct fluid type.
Fluid Level Check (3.7L and 3.0L Diesel Engine) Regular fluid level checks are not r equired. For this reason, the dipstick is omitted. If you notice fluid loss or shift lever malfunction, have your authorized dealer check the transmission fluid level.
2. The vehicle must be on level gr ound. 3. Fully apply the parking brake, and pr ess the brake pedal. 4. Place the shift lever momentarily in each gear position ending with the lever in P ARK. 5. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean and r einsert it until seated.
T o prevent dirt and water fr om entering the transmission after checking or replenishing fluid, make certain that the dipstick cap is properly r eseated. It is normal for the dipstick cap to spring back slightly from its fully seated position, as long as its seal remains engaged in the dipstick tube.
passable in snow and ice, and those that are sprayed on trees and r oad surfaces during other seasons, are highly corrosive to the metal in your vehicle. The following maintenance recommendations will enable you to obtain maximum benefit from the corr osion resistance built into your vehicle.
CAUTION! • Do not use abrasive or strong cleaning materials such as steel wool or scouring powder , which will scratch metal and painted surfaces. • Use of power washers exceeding 1,200 psi (8 274 kPa) can result in damage or removal of paint and decals.
Wheel and Wheel T rim Care All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome-plated wheels should be cleaned r egularly with a mild soap and water to prevent corr osion. T o remove heavy soil, use MOP AR 威 Wheel Cleaner or select a nonabrasive, non-acidic cleaner .
W ARNING! Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning purposes. Many are potentially flammable, and if used in closed areas, they may cause respiratory harm. Cleaning Headlights Y our vehicle has plastic headlights that are lighter and less susceptible to stone breakage than glass headlights.
2. Dry with a soft tissue. Seat Belt Maintenance Do not bleach, dye or clean the belts with chemical solvents or abrasive cleaners. This will weaken the fabric. Sun damage will also weaken the fabric. If the belts need cleaning, use MOP AR 威 T otal Clean, a mild soap solution, or lukewarm water .
