BATTERY REPLACEMENT
The recommended replacement bat-
tery is CR2032.
1. With the RKE transmitter buttons
facing down, use a flat blade to pry
the two halves of the RKE transmitter
apart. Make sure not to damage the
seal during removal.
2. Remove and replace the battery.
Avoid touching the new battery with
your fingers. Skin oils may cause bat-
tery deterioration. If you touch a bat-
tery, clean it with rubbing alcohol.
3. To assemble the RKE transmitter
case, snap the two halves together.DOOR LOCKS
MANUAL DOOR LOCKS
To lock each door, push the door lock
knob on each door trim panel down-
ward. To unlock each door, pull the

WARNING!(Continued)
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key fob from the igni-
tion and lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an un-
locked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a ve- hicle unattended is dangerous for
a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fa-
tally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the shift
lever.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location acces-
sible to children, and do not leave
the ignition in the ACC or ON/
RUN position. A child could oper-
ate power windows, other con-
trols, or move the vehicle.

ELECTRICAL POWER
OUTLETS
There are two 12 Volt (13 Amp) elec-
trical power outlets on this vehicle.
Both of the power outlets are pro-
tected by a fuse.
The instrument panel power outlet,
located below the climate control
knobs, has power available only when
the ignition is ON. This power outlet
will also operate a conventional cigar
lighter unit.
NOTE: To preserve the heating el-
ement, do not hold the lighter in
the heating position.A second power outlet is located in-
side the center console.
The center console power outlet is
powered directly from the battery
(power available at all times). Items
plugged into this power outlet may
discharge the battery and/or prevent
the engine from starting.
CAUTION!
Do not exceed the maximum
power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at
12 Volts. If the 160 Watt (13 Amp)
power rating is exceeded the fuse
protecting the system will need to
be replaced.
(Continued)
CAUTION!
(Continued)
Power outlets are designed for ac-
cessory plugs only. Do not insert
any other object in the power out-
lets as this will damage the outlet
and blow the fuse. Improper use of
the power outlet can cause damage
not covered by your New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

NOTE: If the tire becomes over-
inflated, press the Deflation But-
ton to reduce the tire pressure to
the recommended inflation pres-
sure before continuing.
2. Disconnect the TIREFIT kit from
the valve stem, reinstall the cap on the
valve stem and unplug from 12 Volt
outlet.
3. Place the TIREFIT kit in its proper
storage area in the vehicle.
4. Have the tire inspected and re-
paired or replaced at the earliest op-
portunity at an authorized dealer or
tire service center.
5. Replace the Sealant Bottle (1) and
Sealant Hose (6) assembly at your
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Refer to “(F) Sealant Bottle and Hose
Replacement.”
NOTE: When having the tire ser-
viced, advise the authorized dealer
or service center that the tire has
been sealed using the TIREFIT
service kit.(F) Sealant Bottle And Hose
Replacement:
1. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) (clear
in color).
2. Locate the round Sealant Bottle
release button in the recessed area
under the sealant bottle.
3. Press the Sealant Bottle release
button. The Sealant Bottle (1) will
pop up. Remove the bottle and dis-
pose of it accordingly.
4. Clean any remaining sealant from
the TIREFIT housing.
5. Position the new Sealant Bottle (1)
in the housing so that the Sealant
Hose (6) aligns with the hose slot in
the front of the housing. Press the
bottle into the housing. An audible
click will be heard indicating the
bottle is locked into place.
6. Verify that the cap is installed on
the fitting at the end of the Sealant
Hose (6) and return the hose to its
storage area (located on the bottom of
the air pump).
7. Return the TIREFIT kit to its stor-
age location in the vehicle.JUMP-STARTING
If your vehicle has a discharged bat-
tery it can be jump-started using a set
of jumper cables and a battery in an-
other vehicle or by using a portable
battery booster pack. Jump-starting
can be dangerous if done improperly
so please follow the procedures in this
section carefully.
NOTE: When using a portable
battery booster pack follow the
manufacturer's operating instruc-
tions and precautions.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery
booster pack or any other booster
source with a system voltage
greater than 12 Volts or damage to
the battery, starter motor, alterna-
tor or electrical system may occur.WARNING!
Do not attempt jump-starting if the
battery is frozen. It could rupture or
explode and cause personal injury.

INTEGRATED POWER
MODULE
The Integrated Power Module is lo-
cated in the engine compartment near
the air cleaner assembly. This center
contains cartridge fuses and mini
fuses. A label that identifies each
component may be printed on the in-
side of the cover. Refer to the graphic
below for FUSES/TIPM location.

CAUTION!
When installing the IntegratedPower Module cover, it is impor-
tant to ensure the cover is prop-
erly positioned and fully latched.
Failure to do so may allow water
to get into the Integrated Power
Module, and possibly result in an
electrical system failure.
When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to use only a fuse hav-
ing the correct amperage 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 STORAGE
If you will not be using your vehicle
for more than 21 days, you may want
to take steps to preserve your battery.
Disengage the mini-fuse in the
Power Distribution Center labeled
IOD (Ignition Off-Draw).
Or disconnect the negative cable from the battery. Refer to “Prepa-
ration for Jump Start” in “Jump-
Starting” to identify the location of
the negative post.
Anytime you store your vehicle, or keep it out of service (i.e., vacation)
for two weeks or more, run the air
conditioning system at idle for
about five minutes in the fresh air
and high blower setting. This will
ensure adequate system lubrication
to minimize the possibility of com-
pressor damage when the system is
started again. REPLACEMENT BULBS
All the inside bulbs are brass or glass
wedge base. Aluminum base bulbs are
not approved and should not be used
for replacement.
