NOTE:
•Tires heat up during normal driving con-
ditions. Heat will cause the tire pressure
to increase from 2 to 6 psi (14 to 41 kPa)
during normal driving conditions. Refer to
“Tires-General Information/Tire Inflation
Pressures” in “Starting And Operating”
for additional information.
• Your system can be set to display pres-
sure units in PSI, kPa, or BAR.
Keyless Enter-N-Go Display —
If Equipped
When the ENGINE START/STOP button is
pressed to change ignition switch positions, the
Keyless Enter-N-Go icon momentarily appears
in the lower right corner of the EVIC display
showing the new ignition switch position.
Refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go” in “Starting And
Operating” for more information. NOTE:
Under certain conditions, the display may
be superseded by another display of higher
priority. But when the ignition switch posi-
tion is changed, the display always re-
appears.
Compass / Temperature DisplayThe compass readings indicate the direction
the vehicle is facing. The EVIC will display one
of eight compass readings and the outside
temperature.
NOTE:
The system will display the last known out-
side temperature when starting the vehicle
and may need to be driven several minutes
before the updated temperature is dis-
played. Engine temperature can also affect
the displayed temperature, therefore tem-
perature readings are not updated when the
vehicle is not moving.Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating, which elimi-
nates the need to manually reset the compass.
When the vehicle is new, the compass may
appear erratic and the EVIC will display CAL
until the compass is calibrated. You may also
calibrate the compass by completing one or
more 360–degree turns (in an area free from
large metal or metallic objects) until the CAL
indicator displayed in the EVIC turns off. The
compass will now function normally.
NOTE:
A good calibration requires a level surface
and an environment free from large metallic
objects such as buildings, bridges, under-
ground cables, railroad tracks, etc.

NOTE:
If the vehicle is equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go (Passive Entry) and the EVIC is
programmed to Unlock All Doors 1st Press,
all doors will unlock no matter which Pas-
sive Entry equipped door handle is grasped.
If Driver Door 1st Press is programmed, only
the driver’s door will unlock when the driv-
er’s door is grasped. With Passive Entry, if
Driver Door 1st Press is programmed touch-
ing the handle more than once will only
result in the driver’s door opening. If driver

adjust the inside and outside mirrors, fasten
your seat belt, and if present, instruct all other
occupants to buckle their seat belts.
WARNING!
Never leave children alone in a vehicle. Leav-
ing unattended children in a vehicle is danger-
ous for a number of reasons. A child or others
could be seriously or fatally injured. Do not
leave the key fob in the ignition switch. A child
could operate power windows, other controls,
or move the vehicle.
Automatic TransmissionThe shift lever must be in the NEUTRAL or
PARK position before you can start the engine.
Apply the brakes before shifting into any driv-
ing gear.
CAUTION!
Damage to the transmission may occur if the
following precautions are not observed:
•Shift into PARK only after the vehicle has
come to a complete stop.
• Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop and
the engine is at idle speed.
• Do not shift from REVERSE, PARK, or
NEUTRAL into any forward gear when the
engine is above idle speed.
• Before shifting into any gear, make sure
your foot is firmly on the brake pedal.

the starter engages. The starter motor will con-
tinue to run, and it will disengage automatically when the engine is running. If the engine fails to
start, the starter will disengage automatically in
10 seconds. If this occurs, turn the ignition
switch to the LOCK position, wait 10 to 15 sec-
onds, then repeat the “Normal Starting” proce-
dure.
