SPEED LIMITED TO 90 - 113: A failure in the
suspension control system has occurred when this
message appears. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
determines the speed to which your vehicle is limited.
Have your vehicle serviced if this message appears.
STABILITY SYS ENGAGED
- 55: You may see
the STABILITY SYS ENGAGED message on the
Driver Information Center. It means that an advanced,
computer
-controlled system has come on to help your
vehicle continue to go in the direction in which you're
steering. This stability enhancement system activates
when the computer senses that your vehicle is just
starting to spin, as it might if you hit a patch of ice or
other slippery spot on the road. When the system is on,
you may hear a noise or feel a vibration in the brake
pedal. This is normal.
When the STABILITY SYS ENGAGED message is on,
you should continue to steer in the direction you want to
go. The system is designed to help you in bad weather or
other difficult driving situations by making the most of
whatever road conditions will permit. If the STABILITY
SYS ENGAGED message comes on, you'll know that
something has caused your vehicle to start to spin,
so you should consider slowing down.STARTING DISABLED REMOVE KEY
- 33: This
message will appear when the PASS
-Key
III system
detects that an improper ignition key is being used to try
to start the vehicle. Check the ignition key for damage.
If it is damaged, it may need to be replaced. If it is not
damaged, remove the key and try to start the vehicle
again. If it still does not start, try another ignition key
or see your dealer for service.
THEFT ATTEMPTED
- 40: This message is
displayed if the theft system has detected a break
-in
attempt while you were away from your vehicle.
TOP SPEED FUEL CUT
-OFF - 111 : This message
will appear when the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
detects that the maximum speed for your vehicle has
been reached. The speed of your vehicle will surge as
the fuel supply is cut off. Your vehicle's top speed is
based on the top speed rating of the tires. This ensures
that your vehicle stays in a safe operating range for
the tires.

passenger, the air conditioning, the mode and the
fan speed. (This feature does not recall recirculation

3-31 Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCK
is designed to discourage theft of your
radio. Your vehicle has a ªbuilt
-inº theft-deterrent
feature on each radio that is automatic
-- there is no
programming required. The radio in your vehicle cannot
be used in any other vehicle. When the radio was
originally installed in your vehicle at the factory, it
stored the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Each
time the ignition is turned on, the VIN is verified. If the
vehicle's VIN does not match the VIN stored in the
radio, THEFTLOCK will be activated and the audio
system will not play. If the radio is removed from your
vehicle, the original VIN in the radio can be used to
trace the radio back to your vehicle.

Some audio controls can be adjusted at the steering
wheel. They include the following:
~ VOL ! (Volume):
Press the up or down
arrows to increase or
decrease volume.
~SEL !(Select): When listening to the radio, press
the up or down arrows to tune to the next or previous
preset radio station. When listening to a cassette tape,
these arrows can be used to SEEK forward and rearward
through the tape. Pressing these arrows when listening
to a CD will cause the player to go to the next or
previous track.
