Testing the Alarm
To test the alarm:
1. From inside the vehicle, lowerthe driver window and open the
driver door.
2. Get out of the vehicle, close the door and activate the system by
locking the doors with the RKE
transmitter.
3. Wait for the security light to flash slowly.
4. Then reach in through the window, unlock the door with the
manual door lock and open the
door. This should set off the
alarm.
If the alarm does not sound when it
should, but the vehicle's headlamps
flash, check to see if the horn
works. The horn fuse may be blown.
To replace the fuse, see Fuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 10‑37. If the alarm does not sound or the
vehicle's headlamps do not flash,
see your dealer/retailer for service.

Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has PASS-Key®III+
(Personalized Automotive Security
System) theft-deterrent system.
PASS-Key
®III+ is a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed
when the key is removed from the
ignition.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system. The security light comes on if there
is a problem with arming or
disarming the theft-deterrent
system.
When the PASS-Key
®III+ system
senses that someone is using the
wrong key, it prevents the vehicle
from starting. Anyone using a
trial-and-error method to start the
vehicle will be discouraged because
of the high number of electrical key
codes.
When trying to start the vehicle if
the engine does not start and the
security light on the instrument
panel cluster comes on, there
may be a problem with your
theft-deterrent system. Turn the
ignition off and try again.

Keys, Doors and Windows 2-11
If the engine still does not start, and
the key appears to be not damaged,
wait about five minutes and try
another ignition key and check the
fuse. SeeFuses and Circuit
Breakers
on page 10‑37. If the
engine still does not start with the
other key, the vehicle needs service.
If the vehicle does start, the first key
may be faulty. See your dealer/
retailer who can service the
PASS-Key
®III+ to have a new key
made. In an emergency, contact
Roadside Assistance. See Roadside
Assistance Program on page 13‑6.
It is possible for the PASS-Key
®III+
decoder to “learn”the transponder
value of a new or replacement key.
Up to 10 keys may be programmed
for the vehicle. The following
procedure is for programming additional keys only. If all the
currently programmed keys are lost
or do not operate, you must see
your dealer/retailer or a locksmith
who can service PASS-Key
®III+ to
have keys made and programmed
to the system.
See your dealer/retailer or a
locksmith who can service
PASS-Key
®III+ to get a new key
blank that is cut exactly as the
ignition key that operates the
system.
To program the new key:
1. Verify that the new key has a
1
stamped on it.
2. Insert the already programmed key in the ignition and start the
engine. If the engine does not
start, see your dealer/retailer for
service. 3. After the engine has started, turn
the key to LOCK/OFF, and
remove the key.
4. Insert the key to be programmed and turn it to the ON/RUN
position within five seconds of
the original key being turned to
the LOCK/OFF position.
The security light turns off once
the key has been programmed.
5. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 if additional keys are to be
programmed.
If the PASS-Key
®III+ key is lost or
damaged, see your dealer/retailer
or a locksmith to have a new
key made.
Do not leave the key or device that
disarms or deactivates the theft
deterrent system in the vehicle.

9-10 Driving and Operating
.Always carry a litter bag and
make sure all refuse is removed
from any campsite before
leaving.
.Take extreme care with open
fires (where permitted), camp
stoves, and lanterns.
.Never park your vehicle over dry
grass or other combustible
materials that could catch fire
from the heat of the vehicle's
exhaust system.
Traveling to Remote Areas
It makes sense to plan your trip,
especially when going to a remote
area. Know the terrain and plan
your route. Get accurate maps of
trails and terrain. Check to see if
there are any blocked or closed
roads.
It is also a good idea to travel with
at least one other vehicle in case
something happens to one of them.For vehicles with a winch, be sure to
read the winch instructions. In a
remote area, a winch can be handy
if you get stuck but you will want to
know how to use it properly.
Getting Familiar with Off-Road
Driving
It is a good idea to practice in an
area that is safe and close to home
before you go into the wilderness.
Off-roading requires some new and
different skills.
Tune your senses to different kinds
of signals. Your eyes need to
constantly sweep the terrain for
unexpected obstacles. Your ears
need to listen for unusual tire or
engine sounds. Use your arms,
hands, feet, and body to respond to
vibrations and vehicle bounce.
Controlling the vehicle is the key to
successful off-road driving. One of
the best ways to control the vehicle
is to control the speed. At higher
speeds:
.You approach things faster and
have less time to react.
.There is less time to scan the
terrain for obstacles.
.The vehicle has more bounce
when driving over obstacles.
.More braking distance is
needed, especially on an
unpaved surface.
{WARNING
When you are driving off-road,
bouncing and quick changes in
direction can easily throw you out
of position. This could cause you
to lose control and crash. So,
whether you are driving on or off
the road, you and your
passengers should wear safety
belts.
