Storage Areas
Glove Box
Open the glove box by pulling the bottom of the
handle upward.
Center Overhead Console
Your vehicle is equipped with either a short or
long overhead console.
To open a door on the console, push on the rear
edge of the door and let it swing open. Push
the door up until it latches to close the door.
The overhead consoles also includes reading
lamps, the Universal Home Remote System
buttons and the sunroof switch (if equipped).
Center Console Storage Area
Your vehicle has a console compartment between
the bucket seats.
To open it, press the button on the side of the
console and swing the console lid open.
Luggage Carrier
If your vehicle has this feature, you can load cargo
on your vehicle.
The luggage carrier consists of siderails attached
to the roof. The crossrails attach into the
siderails and can be moved back and forth to
accommodate securing various cargo sizes.
Notice:Loading cargo on the luggage carrier
that weighs more than 300 lbs. (136 kg) or
hangs over the rear or sides of the vehicle may
damage your vehicle. Load cargo only on
top of the crossrails and tie the cargo down to
the crossrail support cargo tie-down loops,
making sure to fasten it securely.
Your vehicle may have a light bar, do not load
cargo on it. SeeOff-Road Lamps on page 190for
more information.
Do not exceed the maximum vehicle capacity
when loading your vehicle. For more information
on vehicle capacity and loading, seeLoading Your
Vehicle on page 362.

Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
This gage shows the engine coolant temperature.
It also provides an indicator of how hard your
vehicle is working. During a majority of the
operation, the gage will read 210°F (100°C) or less.
If you are pulling a load or going up hills, it is normal
for the temperature to uctuate and approach the
250°F (122°C) mark. If the gage reaches the 260°F
(125°C) mark, it indicates that the cooling system is
working beyond its capacity.
SeeEngine Overheating on page 418.
Transmission Temperature Gage
Your vehicle has a transmission temperature gage.
When your ignition is on, the gage shows the
temperature of the transmission uid. The normal
operating range is from 180°F (82°C) to about
200°F (93°C).

Notice:Driving your vehicle through an
automatic car wash with the winch installed,
can cause damage to your vehicle and the car
wash. Always remove the winch from your
vehicle before using an automatic car wash.
SeeWashing Your Vehicle on page 495
for more information.
If you are using a winch to pull out your own
vehicle, follow the winch manufacturer’s guidelines
for self recovery and observe the following to
prevent damage to your vehicle:
Do not self recover your vehicle by wrapping
the winch cable around an object (such as a
pulley block or tree) and attaching it back
to your vehicle’s recovery loops.
Always attach the winch cable directly to a
solid anchor directly in front of your vehicle
to achieve a straight line pull.
Loading Your Vehicle
It is very important to know how much weight your
vehicle can carry. This weight is called the
vehicle capacity weight and includes the weight of
all occupants, cargo, and all nonfactory-installed
options. Two labels on your vehicle show how
much weight it may properly carry, the Tire and
Loading Information label and the Certication/Tire
label.
{CAUTION:
Do not load your vehicle any heavier than
the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR),
or either the maximum front or rear Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). If you do,
parts on your vehicle can break, and it
can change the way your vehicle handles.
These could cause you to lose control
and crash. Also, overloading can shorten
the life of your vehicle.

Tire and Loading Information Label
A vehicle specic Tire and Loading Information
label is attached to the center pillar (B-pillar).
With the driver’s door open, you will nd the label
attached below the door lock post (striker).
The tire and loading information label shows the
number of occupant seating positions (A), and the
maximum vehicle capacity weight (B) in kilograms
and pounds.The Tire and Loading Information label also shows
the size of the original equipment tires (C) and
the recommended cold tire ination pressures (D).
For more information on tires and ination see
Tires on page 448andInation - Tire Pressure on
page 456.
There is also important loading information on the
vehicle Certication/Tire label. It tells you the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and
the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for the
front and rear axle. See “Certication/Tire Label”
later in this section.

Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
1. Locate the statement “The combined
weight of occupants and cargo should never
exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs” on your
vehicle’s placard.
2. Determine the combined weight of the driver
and passengers that will be riding in your
vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver
and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
4. The resulting gure equals the available
amount of cargo and luggage load capacity.
For example, if the “XXX” amount equals
1400 lbs and there will be ve 150 lb
passengers in your vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and luggage load capacity is
650 lbs (1400−750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs).5. Determine the combined weight of luggage
and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That
weight may not safely exceed the available
cargo and luggage load capacity calculated
in Step 4.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, the load
from your trailer will be transferred to your
vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how
this reduces the available cargo and luggage
load capacity of your vehicle.
SeeTowing a Trailer on page 374for important
information on towing a trailer, towing safety rules
and trailering tips.

Refer to your vehicle’s tire and loading
information label for specic information about
your vehicle’s capacity weight and seating
positions. The combined weight of the driver,
passengers and cargo should never exceed your
vehicle’s capacity weight.
Certication/Tire Label
A vehicle specic Certication/Tire label is
attached to the rear edge of the driver’s door.
The label shows the gross weight capacity of your
vehicle. This is called the GVWR (Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating). The GVWR includes the weight of
the vehicle, all occupants, fuel, and cargo.

Weight of the Trailer Tongue
The tongue load (A) of any trailer is an important
weight to measure because it affects the total
gross weight of your vehicle. The Gross Vehicle
Weight (GVW) includes the curb weight of
the vehicle, any cargo you may carry in it, and the
people who will be riding in the vehicle. If you
have a lot of options, equipment, passengers or
cargo in your vehicle, it will reduce the tongue
weight your vehicle can carry, which will also
reduce the trailer weight your vehicle can tow. If
you will tow a trailer, you must add the tongue load
to the GVW because your vehicle will be carrying
that weight, too. SeeLoading Your Vehicle on
page 362for more information about your vehicle’s
maximum load capacity.The trailer tongue weight (A) should be 10 percent
to 15 percent of the total loaded trailer weight (B),
up to a maximum of 500 lbs (227 kg) with a weight
carrying hitch. The trailer tongue weight (A) should
be 10 percent to 15 percent of the total loaded
trailer weight (B), up to a maximum of
700 lbs (318 kg) with a weight distributing hitch.
Do not exceed the maximum allowable tongue
weight for your vehicle. Choose the shortest hitch
extension that will position the hitch ball closest
to the vehicle. This will help reduce the effect
of trailer tongue weight on the rear axle.
