Adjustable Throttle and Brake Pedal
If your vehicle has this feature, you can change the
position of the throttle and brake pedals. This
feature is designed for shorter drivers, since the
pedals cannot move farther away from the standard
position, but can move closer for better pedal reach.
If your vehicle has this feature, it can be
programmed to work with the memory function.
SeeMemory Seat, Mirrors, and Pedals on page 12.
The vehicle must be in PARK (P) for this feature
to operate.
The switch used to
adjust the pedals is
located on the steering
column.
Press the switch forward or backward to move the
pedals closer or farther away from you.
Engine Coolant Heater
Your vehicle may have an engine coolant heater.
In very cold weather, 0°F (−18°C) or colder,
the engine coolant heater can help. You will get
easier starting and better fuel economy during
engine warm-up.
Usually, the coolant heater should be plugged in a
minimum of four hours prior to starting your
vehicle. At temperatures above 32°F (0°C), use of
the coolant heater is not required. Your vehicle
may also have an internal thermostat in the
plug end of the cord. This will prevent operation of
the engine coolant heater when the temperature
is at or above 0°F (−18°C) as noted on the cord.
To Use the Engine Coolant Heater
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the electrical
cord. The cord is located on the driver’s
side of the engine compartment next to the
battery box facing the engine.
3. Plug it into a normal, grounded 110-Volt AC
outlet.
116
{CAUTION:
If your vehicle has four-wheel drive, it will
be free to roll — even if the shift lever is
in PARK (P) — if the transfer case is in
NEUTRAL. So be sure the transfer case is
in a drive gear — not in NEUTRAL. See
Four-Wheel Drive on page 122.
Follow the proper steps to be sure your vehicle
will not move. SeeShifting Into Park (P) on
page 127.
If you are pulling a trailer, seeTowing a Trailer on
page 362.

circumstances, such as during a long distance
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjust for
compass variance. If not adjusted to account
for compass variance, your compass could give
false readings.

1. Find your current location and variance
zone number on the following zone map.2. Press and hold the on/off button for
six seconds. Release the button when
(FOR ZONE) is displayed. The number shown
