Section 2 Features and Controls

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:
Plugging the cord into an ungrounded
outlet could cause an electrical shock.
Also, the wrong kind of extension cord
could overheat and cause a re. You
could be seriously injured. Plug the cord
into a properly grounded three-prong
110-volt AC outlet. If the cord will not
reach, use a heavy-duty three-prong
extension cord rated for at least 15 amps.
4. Before starting the engine, be sure to unplug
and store the cord as it was before to keep it
away from moving engine parts. If you do
not, it could be damaged.How long should you keep the coolant heater
plugged in? The answer depends on the outside
temperature, the kind of oil you have, and
some other things. Instead of trying to list
everything here, we ask that you contact your
dealer in the area where you will be parking your
vehicle. The dealer can give you the best
advice for that particular area.
Active Fuel Management™
Your vehicle’s V8 engine may have Active Fuel
Management™. This system allows the engine to
operate on either all or half of its cylinders,
depending on your driving conditions.
When less power is required, such as cruising at a
constant vehicle speed, the system will operate
in the half cylinder mode, allowing your vehicle to
achieve better fuel economy. When greater
power demands are required, such as accelerating
from a stop, passing, or merging onto a freeway,
the system will maintain full-cylinder operation.

Driver’s Side Temperature Lever:The lever on
the left side of the climate control panel is
used to raise or lower the temperature on the
driver’s side of the vehicle. Slide the lever up or
down to adjust the temperature.
Passenger’s Side Temperature Lever:The lever
on the right side of the climate control panel is
used to raise or lower the temperature on
the passenger’s side of the vehicle. Slide the lever
up or down to adjust the temperature. This lever
also adjusts the temperature to the rear seat
outlets.
When the temperature outside is 0°F (-18°C) or
lower, use the engine coolant heater, if the vehicle
has one, to provide warmer air, faster to your
vehicle.
#(Air Conditioning):Press this button to turn
the air-conditioning system on or off. When
the button is pressed, an indicator light will come
on and the system will begin to cool and
dehumidify the air inside of the vehicle. You may
notice a slight change in engine performance
when the air conditioning compressor shuts off and
turns on again. This is normal.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high
humidity (moisture) condensing on the cool window
glass. This can be minimized if the climate
control system is used properly. There are
two modes to choose from to clear fog or frost
from your windshield. Use the defog mode to clear
the windows of fog or moisture and warm the
passengers. Use the defrost mode to remove fog
or frost from the windshield more quickly.
Turn the right knob clockwise or counterclockwise
to select one of the following modes:
-(Defog):This mode directs the air to the oor
outlets, windshield and side window outlets.
The recirculation button cannot be selected while
in defog mode.
1(Defrost):This mode directs most of the air to
the windshield and the side window outlets, with
only a little air directed to the oor outlets. The air
conditioning compressor may run to dehumidify
the air to prevent window fogging. The recirculation
button cannot be selected while in defrost mode.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows
are clear.

StabiliTrak®Indicator Light
This warning light
should come on briey
when the engine is
started.
During most driving conditions, this light will not
come on. If the StabiliTrak
®System is actively
controlling the stability and/or traction of the
vehicle, this light will ash. This is normal.
This light will come on if any portion of the system
has been manually turned off or a problem is
detected in the system.
If your vehicle has a Driver Information Center, a
message will appear also, seeDIC Warnings
and Messages on page 222andStabiliTrak
®
System on page 309for more information.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
This gage shows the engine coolant temperature.
If the gage pointer moves into the red area, it
means that the engine coolant has overheated.
If you have been operating your vehicle under
normal driving conditions, you should pull off the
road, stop your vehicle and turn off the engine
as soon as possible.
SeeEngine Overheating on page 408for more
information.

Service Four-Wheel Drive
Warning Light
This light should come
on briey when you turn
on the ignition, as a
check to show you
it is working.
The service four-wheel drive light comes on to
indicate that there may be a problem with the drive
system and service is required. Malfunctions
can be indicated by the system before any problem
is apparent, which may prevent serious damage
to the vehicle. This system is also designed
to assist your dealer in correctly diagnosing a
malfunction.
Check Gages Warning Light
The check gages light
will come on briey
when you are starting
the engine.
If the light comes on and stays on while you are
driving, check your coolant temperature and
engine oil pressure gages to see if they are in the
warning zones.
Gate Ajar Light
If this light comes on,
the liftgate or liftglass is
not completely shut.
Close the liftgate or liftglass. Never drive with the
liftgate or liftglass even partially open.

ENGINE COOLANT HOT/ENGINE
OVERHEATED
Notice:If you drive your vehicle while the
engine is overheating, severe engine damage
may occur. If an overheat warning appears on
the instrument panel cluster and/or DIC, stop
the vehicle as soon as possible. Do not increase
the engine speed above normal idling speed.
SeeEngine Overheating on page 408for more
information.
This message displays and a chime sounds if the
cooling system temperature gets hot. See
Engine Overheating on page 408for the proper
course of action. This message clears when
the coolant temperature drops to a safe operating
temperature.
FUEL LEVEL LOW
This message displays and a chime sounds if the
fuel level is low in the vehicle’s fuel tank. Refuel as
soon as possible. Press any of the DIC buttons, or
the trip stem, to acknowledge this message and
clear it from the DIC display. SeeLow Fuel Warning
Light on page 217,Filling the Tank on page 385,
andFuel on page 382for more information.
ICE POSSIBLE
This message may display if the outside
temperature reaches a level where ice could form
on the roadway. If the temperature rises to a safe
level, the message clears. This message clears
itself after 10 seconds, or you can press any of the
DIC buttons, or the trip stem, to acknowledge this
message and clear it from the DIC display.
KEY FOB # BATTERY LOW
This message displays if a Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter battery is low. Replace the
battery in the transmitter. See “Battery
Replacement” underRemote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System Operation on page 98. Press any of the
DIC buttons, or the trip stem, to acknowledge this
message and clear it from the DIC display.
LEFT REAR DOOR AJAR
This message displays and a chime sounds if the
driver’s side rear door is not fully closed. Stop and
