all because of the following conditions:
A low voltage or dead battery
A disconnected battery
If the instrument panel PSD/fuse 21, LHPSD/
fuse 24 or RHPSD/fuse 25 are removed or blown.
SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers on page 5-96for more
information.

If any of these conditions occur, the power sliding door
may need to be reset. If your vehicle has the dual
power sliding doors, both doors will have to be reset. To
reset a door, do the following:
1. Check to be sure the power sliding door is unlocked
and securely closed.
2. Turn the ignition to LOCK.
3. If the power sliding door overhead console switch is
in the override (deactivation) position, return to the
activation position.
4. Open the sliding door using the remote keyless entry
transmitter, overhead console switch, or passenger
switch. Allow the door to travel fully open.
If the door does not travel to the fully open position,
press the overhead console switch to the override
(deactivation) position and slide the door fully open and
closed. Check for foreign objects in the tracks. Repeat
the procedure starting with Step 1. If the door resists
travel to the fully open position, see your dealer
for service.Liftgate
To unlock or lock the liftgate from the outside, use the
remote keyless entry transmitter. For more information,
seeRemote Keyless Entry System Operation on
page 2-5.
You can also use the power door lock switch to lock
and unlock the liftgate.
Open the liftgate using the handle located above the
license plate. Once slightly opened, the liftgate will rise
by itself. Lamps in the rear of the vehicle will come
on, illuminating the rear cargo area.
Notice:If you open the liftgate without checking for
overhead obstructions such as a garage door,
you could break the liftgate glass. Always check to
make sure the area above the liftgate is clear
before opening it.

Resuming a Set Speed
If the cruise control is set at a desired speed and then
the brakes are applied, the cruise control shuts off.
But the cruise control does not need to be reset.
Once the vehicle is traveling approximately 25 mph
(40 km/h) or more, the cruise control lever can be
pushed upward toward the plus (resume/accelerate)
position to return to the preset cruise speed.
The vehicle will return to and stay at the preset cruise
speed. If the cruise control lever is pushed up and
held toward the plus (resume/accelerate) position, the
vehicle speed will increase until the lever is released or
the brakes are applied. Do not continue to hold the
lever in the plus (resume/accelerate) position, unless a
faster speed is desired.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed:
Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher
speed. Push up on the cruise control lever toward
the plus (resume/accelerate) position, then
release the lever and take your foot off the
accelerator pedal. The vehicle will now cruise at the
higher speed.
Push up and hold the cruise control lever toward
the plus (resume/accelerate) position until the
vehicle reaches the desired speed. Then release
the cruise control lever. To increase the vehicle’s
speed in very small amounts, push up briey on the
cruise control lever and release it. Each time this
is done, the vehicle will speed up approximately
one mph (1.6 km/h).
The acceleration feature will only work after the cruise
control speed has been set by pushing the cruise control
lever down to the set position.

Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both
miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
Your odometer shows how far your vehicle has
been driven, in either miles (used in the United States)
or kilometers (used in Canada).
Your vehicle has a tamper-resistant odometer.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle needs a
new odometer installed. The new one can be set to
the mileage total of the old odometer.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer can display how far you have driven
since you last reset it.
For more information seeDIC Operation and Displays
on page 3-50.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays
the engine speed in
revolutions per
minute (rpm).

If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the
road and stop carefully. You may notice that the pedal is
harder to push. Or, the pedal may go closer to the
oor. It may take longer to stop. If the light is still on,
have the vehicle towed for service. SeeAnti-Lock Brake
System Warning Light on page 3-42andTowing Your
Vehicle on page 4-37.
{CAUTION:
Your brake system may not be working
properly if the brake system warning light is
on. Driving with the brake system warning light
on can lead to an accident. If the light is still
on after you have pulled off the road and
stopped carefully, have the vehicle towed for
service.
Anti-Lock Brake System Warning
Light
Your vehicle has an
anti-lock brake system
warning light. The anti-lock
brake system warning
light should come on for a
few seconds when you
turn the ignition key
to RUN.
If the anti-lock brake system warning light stays on
longer than normal after you’ve started your engine, turn
the ignition off. Or, if the light comes on and stays on
when you’re driving, stop as soon as possible and turn
the ignition off. Then start the engine again to reset
the system. If the light still stays on, or comes on again
while you’re driving, the anti-lock brake system needs
service and you do not have anti-lock brakes.
The anti-lock brake system warning light should come
on briey when you turn the ignition key to RUN. If
the light does not come on then, have it xed so it will
be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
