HAZARD WARNING
FLASHERS
The Hazard Warning flasher switch is
located in the lower center area of the
instrument panel.Press the switch to turn on the
Hazard Warning flasher. When
the switch is activated, all di-
rectional 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
flashers.
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 assistance, the Hazard Warning
flashers will continue to operate even
though the ignition is placed in the
OFF position.
NOTE:
With extended use the Hazard
Warning flashers may wear down
your battery. IF YOUR ENGINE
OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you
can reduce the potential for overheat-
ing by taking the appropriate action.
 On the highways — slow down.
 In city traffic — while stopped,
place the transmission in NEU-
TRAL, but do not increase 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 tempera- ture control to maximum heat,
the mode control to floor and the
blower control to high. This al-
lows the heater core to act as a
supplement to the radiator and
aids in removing heat from the
engine cooling system.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system
could damage your vehicle. If tem-
perature gauge reads “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 the “H”, turn the engine off im-
mediately, 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.

JACKING AND TIRE
CHANGINGWARNING!
 Do not attempt to change a tire onthe side of the vehicle close to
moving traffic. Pull far enough off
the road to avoid the danger of
being hit when operating the jack
or changing the wheel.
 Being under a jacked-up vehicle is
dangerous. The vehicle could slip
off the jack and fall on you. You
could be crushed. Never put any
part of your body under a vehicle
that is on a jack. If you need to get
under a raised vehicle, take it to a
service center where it can be
raised on a lift.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
 Never start or run the engine
while the vehicle is on a jack.
 The jack is designed to be used as
a tool for changing tires only. The
jack should not be used to lift the
vehicle for service purposes. The
vehicle should be jacked on a firm
level surface only. Avoid ice or
slippery areas.
JACK LOCATION
The jack, jack handle and winch
handle tools are stowed behind the
rear left side trim panel in the rear
cargo area. Turn the two cover latches
to release the cover. Remove the pouch containing the
scissors jack, jack handle, and tools.
SPARE TIRE REMOVAL
The spare tire is stowed inside a pro-
tective cover located under the center
of the vehicle between the front doors
by means of a cable winch mecha-
nism. The “spare tire drive” nut is
located on the floor, under a plastic
cap at the front of the floor console or
under front super console forward bin
liner.

NOTE:
If either front tire is flat it may be
necessary to jack up the vehicle to
remove the compact spare tire/
cover assembly from under the ve-
hicle.
4. Stand the tire/cover assembly up-
right and remove the wheel spacer by
squeezing the winch retaining tabs to-
gether. Push the retainer through the
spare tire to release it from the wheel.
PREPARATIONS FOR
JACKING
1. Park the vehicle on a firm, level
surface. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to change a tire on
the side of the vehicle close to mov-
ing traffic, pull far enough off the
road to avoid being hit when operat-
ing the jack or changing the wheel.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning
flasher.
3. Set the parking brake.
4. Place the shift lever into PARK.
5. Turn OFF the ignition. 6. Block both the
front and rear of
the wheel diago-
nally opposite the
jacking position.
For example, if
changing the right
front tire, block the left rear wheel.
NOTE:
Passengers should not remain in
the vehicle when the vehicle is be-
ing jacked. JACKING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
Carefully follow these tire changing
warnings to help prevent personal
injury or damage to your vehicle:
 Always park on a firm, level sur-
face as far from the edge of the
roadway as possible before raising
the vehicle.
 Turn on the Hazard Warning
flasher.
 Block the wheel diagonally oppo-
site the wheel to be raised.
 Set the parking brake firmly and
set an automatic transmission in
PARK; a manual transmission in
REVERSE.
 Never start or run the engine with
the vehicle on a jack.
 Do not let anyone sit in the vehicle
when it is on a jack.
 Do not get under the vehicle when
it is on a jack.
 Only use the jack in the positions
indicated and for lifting this ve-
hicle during a tire change.

WARNING!
Do not attempt jump-starting if the
battery is frozen. It could rupture or
explode and cause personal injury.
PREPARATIONS FOR
JUMP-START
The battery in your vehicle is located
on the left side of the engine compart-
ment.WARNING!
 Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan whenever the hood is
raised. It can start anytime the
ignition switch is on. You can be
injured by moving fan blades.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
 Remove any metal jewelry such as
watch bands or bracelets that
might make an inadvertent elec-
trical contact. You could be seri-
ously injured.
 Batteries contain sulfuric acid
that can burn your skin or eyes
and generate hydrogen gas which
is flammable and explosive. Keep
open flames or sparks away from
the battery.
1. Set the parking brake, shift the
automatic transmission into PARK
and turn the ignition to LOCK.
2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all
unnecessary electrical accessories.
3. If using another vehicle to jump-
start the battery, park the vehicle
within the jumper cables reach, set
the parking brake and make sure the
ignition is OFF.WARNING!
Do not allow vehicles to touch each
other as this could establish a
ground connection and personal in-
jury could result. JUMP-STARTING
PROCEDURE
WARNING!
Failure to follow this procedure
could result in personal injury or
property damage due to battery ex-
plosion.CAUTION!
Failure to follow these procedures
could result in damage to the charg-
ing system of the booster vehicle or
the discharged vehicle.
1. Connect the positive (+)end of the
jumper cable to the positive (+)post of
the discharged vehicle.
2. Connect the opposite end of the
positive (+)jumper cable to the posi-
tive (+)post of the booster battery.
3. Connect the negative end (-)of the
jumper cable to the negative (-)post
of the booster battery.
4. Connect the opposite end of the
negative (-)jumper cable to a good
engine ground (exposed metal part of
Positive Battery Post
278

the discharged vehicle’s engine) away
from the battery and the fuel injection
system.WARNING!
Do not connect the cable to the nega-
tive post(-)of the discharged bat-
tery. The resulting electrical spark
could cause the battery to explode
and could result in personal injury.
5. Start the engine in the vehicle that
has the booster battery, let the engine
idle a few minutes, and then start the
engine in the vehicle with the dis-
charged battery. Once the engine is
started, remove the jumper cables in
the reverse sequence:
6. Disconnect the negative (-)jumper
cable from the negative (-)post of the
vehicle with the discharged battery.
7. Disconnect the negative end (-)of
the jumper cable from the negative (-)
post of the booster battery. 8. Disconnect the opposite end of the
positive
(+)jumper cable from the
positive (+)post of the booster bat-
tery.
9. Disconnect the positive (+)end of
the jumper cable from the positive (+)
post of the discharged vehicle.
If frequent jump-starting is required
to start your vehicle you should have
the battery and charging system in-
spected at your authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
Accessories that can be plugged into
the vehicle power outlets draw
power from the vehicle’s battery,
even when not in use (i.e., cellular
phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged
in long enough, the vehicle’s battery
will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the en-
gine from starting. FREEING A STUCK
VEHICLE
If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud,
sand or snow, it can often be moved by
a rocking motion. Turn your steering
wheel right and left to clear the area
around the front wheels. Then move
the shift lever back and forth between
DRIVE and REVERSE. Using mini-
mal accelerator pedal pressure to
maintain the rocking motion, without
spinning the wheels, is most effective.
CAUTION!
Racing the engine or spinning the
wheels may lead to transmission
overheating and failure. Allow the
engine to idle with the shift lever in
NEUTRAL for at least one minute
after every five rocking-motion
cycles. This will minimize overheat-
ing and reduce the risk of transmis-
sion failure during prolonged efforts
to free a stuck vehicle.
279

NOTE:
To improve the vehicle’s traction
when starting off in deep snow,
sand or gravel, it may be desirable
to switch the Electronic Stability
Program (ESP) to “Partial Off”
mode. Refer to “Electronic Brake
Control System” in “Starting and
Operating” for further informa-
tion.CAUTION!
 When “rocking” a stuck vehicleby moving between DRIVE and
REVERSE, do not spin the wheels
faster than 24 km/h, or drivetrain
damage may result.
 Revving the engine or spinning
the wheels too fast may lead to
transmission overheating and
failure. It can also damage the
tires. Do not spin the wheels above
48 km/h while in gear (no trans-
mission shifting occurring).
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be danger-
ous. Forces generated by excessive
wheel speeds may cause damage, or
even failure, of the axle and tires. A
tire could explode and injure some-
one. Do not spin your vehicle's
wheels faster than 48 km/h or for
longer than 30 seconds continuously
without stopping when you are stuck
and do not let anyone near a spin-
ning wheel, no matter what the
speed.
SHIFT LEVER
OVERRIDE
If a malfunction occurs and the shift
lever cannot be moved out of the
PARK position, you can use the fol-
lowing procedure to temporarily
move the shift lever:
1. Firmly apply the parking brake.
2. Remove the shift lever access
cover, located near the top right of the
shift lever in the instrument panel. 3. Turn the ignition to the ON/RUN
position without starting the engine
(engine OFF).
4. Press and maintain firm pressure
on the brake pedal.
5. Insert a screwdriver or similar tool
into the hole and push and hold the
shift lever override forward.
6. Move the shift lever to the NEU-
TRAL position.
7. The vehicle may then be started in
NEUTRAL.
8. Reinstall the shift lever override
access cover.
