than 30 mph (48 km/h), see your authorized
dealer as soon as possible to have the problem
diagnosed and corrected.
NOTE:
•The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the
“ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator
Light” come on momentarily each time
the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.
• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/
RUN, the ESC system will be ON even if it
was turned off previously.
• The ESC system will make buzzing or
clicking sounds when it is active. This is
normal; the sounds will stop when ESC
becomes inactive following the maneuver
that caused the ESC activation.
5. TOW/HAUL Indicator Light —
If Equipped This light will illuminate when the
TOW/HAUL button has been se-
lected. The TOW/HAUL button is
located in the center of the instru-
ment panel (below the climate
controls). 6. Turn Signal Indicator
The arrows will flash with the exterior turn
signals when the turn signal lever is op-
erated. A tone will chime, and an EVIC
message will appear if the turn signals are left
on for more than 1 mile (1.6 km).
7. High Beam Indicator Indicates that headlights are on high
beam.
8. Front Fog Light Indicator — If Equipped This indicator will illuminate when the
front fog lights are on.
9. Hill Descent Control Indicator Light —
If Equipped The symbol indicates the status of
the Hill Decent Control (HDC) fea-
ture. The lamp will be on solid
when HDC is armed. HDC can
only be armed when the transfer
case is in the “4WD Low” position
and the vehicle speed is less then 30 mph
(48 km/h). If these conditions are not met while
attempting to use the HDC feature, the HDC
indicator lamp will flash on/off. 10. Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) Display/Odometer Display
The odometer display shows the total distance
the vehicle has been driven.
Regulations require that upon transfer of ve-
hicle ownership, the seller certify to the pur-
chaser the correct mileage that the vehicle has
been driven. If your odometer needs to be
repaired or serviced, the repair technician
should leave the odometer reading the same as
it was before the repair or service. If s/he
cannot do so, then the odometer must be set at
zero, and a sticker must be placed in the door
jamb stating what the mileage was before the
repair or service. It is a good idea for you to
make a record of the odometer reading before
the repair/service, so that you can be sure that
it is properly reset, or that the door jamb sticker
is accurate if the odometer must be reset at
zero.
When the appropriate conditions exist, this
display shows the Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC) messages. Refer to “Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center”.

following precautions:
1. Handle the disc by its edge; avoid touching
the surface.
2. If the disc is stained, clean the surface with
a soft cloth, wiping from center to edge.
3. Do not apply paper or tape to the disc; avoid
scratching the disc.
4. Do not use solvents such as benzene, thin-
ner, cleaners, or anti-static sprays.
5. Store the disc in its case after playing.
6. Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight.
7. Do not store the disc where temperatures
may become too high.
NOTE:
If you experience difficulty in playing a par-
ticular disc, it may be damaged (i.e.,
scratched, reflective coating removed, a
hair, moisture or dew on the disc) oversized,
or have protection encoding. Try a known
good disc before considering disc player
service.
RADIO OPERATION AND MOBILE
PHONES
Under certain conditions, the mobile phone
being on in your vehicle can cause erratic or
noisy performance from your radio. This condi-
tion may be lessened or eliminated by relocat-
ing the mobile phone antenna. This condition is
not harmful to the radio. If your radio perfor-
mance does not satisfactorily “clear” by the
repositioning of the antenna, it is recom-
mended that the radio volume be turned down
or off during mobile phone operation.

HAZARD WARNING FLASHERSThe Hazard Warning flasher switch is located
on the switch bank just above the climate
controls.Press the switch to turn on the Hazard
Warning flasher. When the switch is
activated, all directional turn signals will
flash on and off to warn oncoming
traffic of an emergency. Press the switch a
second time to turn off the Hazard Warning
flasher.
This is an emergency warning system and it
should not be used when the vehicle is in
motion. Use it when your vehicle is disabled
and it is creating a safety hazard for other
motorists.
When you must leave the vehicle to seek assis-
tance, the Hazard Warning flasher will continue
to operate even though the ignition is placed in
the OFF position.
NOTE:
With extended use the Hazard Warning
flasher may wear down your battery.IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATSIn any of the following situations, you can
reduce the potential for overheating by taking
the appropriate action.
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, place the
transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not in-
crease the engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow
down an impending overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it
off. The A/C system adds heat to the
engine cooling system and turning the
A/C off can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature control
to maximum heat, the mode control to
floor and the blower control to high. This
allows the heater core to act as a supple-
ment to the radiator and aids in removing
heat from the engine cooling system.CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could dam-
age your vehicle. If the temperature gauge
reads HOT (H), pull over and stop the vehicle.
Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner turned
off until the pointer drops back into the normal
range. If the pointer remains on HOT (H), and
you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine
off immediately and call for service.
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot
engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from
your radiator. If you see or hear steam coming
from under the hood, do not open the hood
until the radiator has had time to cool. Never
try to open a cooling system pressure cap
when the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.

•
When installing the totally integrated power
module cover, it is important to ensure the
cover is properly positioned and fully
latched. Failure to do so may allow water to
get into the totally integrated power module
and possibly result in a electrical system
failure.
• When replacing a blown fuse, it is important
to use only a fuse having the correct am-
perage rating. The use of a fuse with a
rating other than indicated may result in a
dangerous electrical system overload. If a
properly rated fuse continues to blow, it
indicates a problem in the circuit that must
be corrected.
VEHICLE STORAGEIf you are leaving your vehicle dormant for more
than 21 days you may want to take steps to
protect your battery. You may:
• Remove fuse #27 in the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM) labeled Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD#1).
