Before setting out on a trip, practice
turning, stopping, and backing up the
trailer in an area located away from
heavy traffic.
Automatic Transmission
The DRIVE range can be selected
when towing. The transmission con-
trols include an adaptive drive strat-
egy to avoid frequent shifting when
towing. However, if frequent shifting
does occur while in DRIVE, use
the AutoStick® shift control (for
versions/markets, where provided) to
manually select a lower gear.
NOTE: Selecting a lower gear
while operating the vehicle under
heavy loading conditions will im-
prove performance and extend
transmission life by reducing ex-
cessive shifting and heat buildup.
This action will also provide better
engine braking.
249

If you REGULARLY tow a trailer for
more than 45 minutes of continuous
operation, then change the automatic
transmission fluid and filter as speci-
fied for “police, taxi, fleet, or frequent
trailer towing.” Refer to the “Mainte-
nance Schedule” for the proper main-
tenance intervals.
Electronic Speed Control
 Do not use in hilly terrain or withheavy loads.
 When using the speed control, if you experience speed drops greater
than 16 km/h, disengage until you
can get back to cruising speed.
 Use speed control in flat terrain and with light loads to maximize fuel
efficiency.
AutoStick® (for versions/markets,
where provided)
– When using the AutoStick® shift control, select the highest gear that
allows for adequate performance
and avoids frequent downshifts. For example, choose “4” if the de-
sired speed can be maintained.
Choose “3” or “2” if needed to
maintain the desired speed.
– To prevent excess heat generation, avoid continuous driving at high
RPM. Reduce vehicle speed as nec-
essary to avoid extended driving at
high RPM. Return to a higher gear
or vehicle speed when grade and
road conditions allow.
Cooling System
To reduce potential for engine and
transmission overheating, take the
following actions:
City Driving
When stopped for short periods of
time, shift the transmission into NEU-
TRAL and increase engine idle speed.
Highway Driving
Reduce speed.
Air Conditioning
Turn off temporarily. TRAILER HITCH
ATTACHING POINTS
Your vehicle will require extra equip-
ment to tow a trailer safely and effi-
ciently. The trailer tow hitch must be
attached to your vehicle using the
provided attaching points on the ve-
hicle's frame. Refer to the following
chart to determine the accurate at-
taching points. Other equipment,
such as trailer sway controls and
braking equipment, trailer equalizing
(leveling) equipment and low profile
mirrors, may also be required or
strongly recommended.

HAZARD WARNING
FLASHERS
The Hazard Warning flasher switch is
located in the center of the instrument
panel between the center air outlets.Press the switch to turn on the
Hazard Warning flashers.
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 the en-
gine idle speed.
NOTE: There are steps that you
can take to slow down an impend-
ing 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 the
temperature 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 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.

4. Remove the cap from the valve
stem and then screw the fitting at the
end of the Sealant Hose (6) onto the
valve stem.
5. Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and in-
sert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt
power outlet.
NOTE: Do not remove foreign ob-
jects (e.g., screws or nails) from the
tire.
(C) Injecting TIREFIT Sealant
Into The Deflated Tire:
 Always start the engine beforeturning ON the TIREFIT kit.
NOTE: Manual transmission ve-
hicles must have the parking
brake engaged and the shift lever
in NEUTRAL.
 After pressing the Power But- ton (4), the sealant (white fluid)
will flow from the Sealant Bottle (1)
through the Sealant Hose (6) and
into the tire.
NOTE: Sealant may leak out
through the puncture in the tire. If the sealant (white fluid) does not
flow
within 0 – 10 seconds through
the Sealant Hose (6):
1. Press the Power Button (4) to turn
Off the TIREFIT kit. Disconnect the
Sealant Hose (6) from the valve stem.
Make sure the valve stem is free of
debris. Reconnect the Sealant
Hose (6) to the valve stem. Check that
the Mode Select Knob (5) is in the
Sealant Mode position and not Air
Mode. Press the Power Button (4) to
turn On the TIREFIT kit.
2. Connect the Power Plug (8) to a
different 12 Volt power outlet in your
vehicle or another vehicle, if avail-
able. Make sure the engine is running
before turning ON the TIREFIT kit.
3. The Sealant Bottle (1) may be
empty due to previous use. Call for
assistance.
NOTE: If the Mode Select
Knob (5) is on Air Mode and the
pump is operating, air will dis-
pense from the Air Pump Hose (7)
only, not the Sealant Hose (6). If the sealant (white fluid) does
flow
through the Sealant Hose (6):
1. Continue to operate the pump un-
til sealant is no longer flowing
through hose (typically takes 30 -
70 seconds). As the sealant flows
through the Sealant Hose (6), the
Pressure Gauge (3) can read as high
as 5 Bar. The Pressure Gauge (3) will
decrease quickly from approximately
5 Bar to the actual tire pressure when
the Sealant Bottle (1) is empty.
2. The pump will start to inject air
into the tire immediately after the
Sealant Bottle (1) is empty. Continue
to operate the pump and inflate the
tire to the pressure indicated on the
tire pressure label on the driver-side
latch pillar (recommended pressure).
Check the tire pressure by looking at
the Pressure Gauge (3).
If the tire does not inflate to at least
1.8 Bar pressure within 15 min-
utes:
 The tire is too badly damaged. Do not attempt to drive the vehicle fur-
ther. Call for assistance.

PREPARATIONS FOR
JUMP-START
The battery is stored under an access
cover in the trunk. Remote battery
posts are located on the right side of
the engine compartment for jump-
starting.
NOTE: The remote battery posts
are viewed by standing on the right
side of the vehicle looking over the
fender.
WARNING!
 Take care to avoid the radiatorcooling fan whenever the hood is
raised. It can start anytime the
ignition switch is ON. You can be
injured by moving fan blades.
 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
injury could result.
JUMP-STARTING
PROCEDUREWARNING!
Failure to follow this procedure
could result in personal injury or
property damage due to battery
explosion.CAUTION!
Failure to follow these procedures
could result in damage to the
charging system of the booster ve-
hicle or the discharged vehicle.
1. Connect the positive (+)end of the
jumper cable to the remote posi-
tive (+)post of the discharged vehicle.
2. Connect the opposite end of the
positive (+)jumper cable to the posi-
tive (+)post of the booster battery.
Remote Battery Post Locations
1 — Remote Positive (+)Post
2 — Remote Negative (-)Post
261

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 the re-
mote negative (-)post of the vehicle
with the discharged battery.WARNING!
Do not connect the cable to the
negative post (-)of the discharged
battery. The resulting electrical
spark could cause the battery to
explode and could result in per-
sonal 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 remote 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 remote
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 steer-
ing wheel right and left to clear the
area around the front wheels. Then
shift back and forth between DRIVE
and REVERSE. Using minimal accel-
erator 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 transmission
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.
262

NOTE: Press the "ESC Off"
switch, to place the Electronic Sta-
bility Control (ESC) system in
"Partial Off" mode, before rocking
the vehicle. Refer to “Electronic
Brake Control” in “Starting And
Operating” for further informa-
tion.Once the vehicle has been
freed, press the "ESC Off" switch
again to restore "ESC On" mode.CAUTION!
 When “rocking” a stuck vehicleby shifting 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
transmission 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
someone. Do not spin your vehicle's
wheels faster than 48 km/h or for
longer than 30 seconds continu-
ously without stopping when you
are stuck and do not let anyone
near a spinning wheel, no matter
what the speed.
TOW EYES
Your vehicle is equipped with tow
eyes, which are mounted in the front
and the rear.CAUTION!
Tow eyes are for emergency use
only, to rescue a vehicle stranded
off road. Do not use tow eyes for
tow truck hookup or highway tow-
ing. You could damage your ve-
hicle. Tow straps are recommended
when towing the vehicle; chains
may cause vehicle damage.
WARNING!
Stand clear of vehicles when pull-
ing with tow eyes. Tow straps and
chains may break, causing serious
injury.
SHIFT LEVER
OVERRIDE — 5 SPEED
TRANSMISSION
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. Turn the engine OFF.
2. Firmly apply the parking brake.
3. Remove the rubber liner from the
storage tray (located next to the
shifter on the center console).
4. Press and maintain firm pressure
on the brake pedal.
