unlock the driver’s door only and
twice within five seconds to unlock all
the doors and liftgate.
• All doors can be programmed to un-
lock on the first press of the UNLOCK
button. Refer to Programmable Fea-
tures in this guide.

The remote keyless power top function
can only be used with the engine off.
NOTE:The remote control can be used to openthe power top to the spoiler position.
Open Power Top Remote Function:
•OPEN— Push and hold the unlock
button down on the key fob for a minimum of three seconds to initiate Power Top
Open. The roof will stop opening whenever the unlock button on the key fob is
released, or when it reaches the spoiler position.

SECURITY ALARM
To Arm:
• Press the Key Fob LOCK button.
To Disarm The System:
•Press the Key Fob UNLOCK button or cycle the ignition to the ON/START position.
• The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to protect your vehicle; however, you can
create conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will give you a false alarm.
If one of the previously described arming sequences has occurred, the Vehicle
Security Alarm will arm regardless of whether you are in the vehicle or not. If you
remain in the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm
the Vehicle Security Alarm.
• If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected the
Vehicle Security Alarm will remain armed when the battery is reconnected. The
exterior lights will flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the Vehicle
Security Alarm.
POWER DOOR LOCKS
• The vehicles power door locks are activated by moving the inside door handles.
• Push or pull the driver’s door handle to lock or unlock the doors and liftgate when
the doors are closed.
SEAT BELT
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
• Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. To remove slack in
the lap portion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. To loosen the lap belt if it is too
tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of
sliding under the belt in a collision.
• Position the shoulder belt on your chest so that it is comfortable and not resting
on your neck. The retractor will withdraw any slack in the belt.
• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a colli-
sion. You are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your
shoulder belt. The lap and shoulder belt are meant to be used together.
• A belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop you could
move too far forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear your seat belt
snugly.
• A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection.
Inspect the belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Dam-
aged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the sys-
tem. Seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision if they have been
damaged (bent retractor, torn webbing, etc.).

SPORT MODE
• In Sport mode, the engine is more responsive to the accelerator pedal, and pro-
vides more power by increasing turbo boost.
• Steering feedback is also improved, and steering effort is slightly higher.
• Sport mode driving is useful while driving on winding roads where more steering
precision is desired.
To activate Sport Mode
1. Press the SPORT button, located
above the climate controls.
2. Momentarily release the accelerator
pedal.
3. Press the accelerator pedal again to
activate.
NOTE:
• Once SPORT mode is activated, a
“SPORT” message will be displayed in
the instrument cluster.
• For maximum aerodynamics and han-
dling, your vehicle has a lowered ride
height. Use caution when entering steep driveways and parking spaces to pre-
vent damage.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
• Be sure the transmission is in first gear, not third, when starting from a standing
position. Damage to the clutch can result from starting in third gear.
• Never drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal, and never try to hold the
vehicle on a hill with the clutch pedal partially engaged. This will cause abnormal
wear on the clutch.
NOTE:
• Never shift into REVERSE until the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
• During cold weather, until the transmission lubricant is warm, you may experience
slightly higher shift efforts. This is normal and not harmful to the transmission.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
28
•If the sealant (white fluid) does flow through the Sealant Hose (6):
1. Continue to operate the pump until sealant is no longer flowing through the hose
(typically takes 30 - 70 seconds). As the sealant flows through the Sealant Hose
(6), the Pressure Gauge (3) can read as high as 70 psi (5 kPa). The Pressure
Gauge (3) will decrease quickly from approximately 70 psi (5 kPa) 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 26 psi (1.8 kPa) pressure within
15 minutes:
• The tire is too badly damaged. Do not attempt to drive the vehicle further. Call
for assistance.
NOTE:If the tire becomes over-inflated, press the Deflation Button to reduce the tire pressure tothe recommended inflation pressure before continuing.
•If the tire inflates to the recommended pressure or is at least 26 psi
(1.8 Bar) pressure within 15 minutes:
1. Press the Power Button (4) to turn off the TIREFIT kit.
2. Remove the Speed Limit sticker from the top of the Sealant Bottle (1) and place
the sticker on the instrument panel.
3. Immediately disconnect the Sealant Hose (6) from the valve stem, reinstall the
cap on the fitting at the end of the hose, and place the TIREFIT kit in the vehicle
storage location. Quickly proceed to (D) “Drive Vehicle.”
(D) Drive Vehicle:
• Immediately after injecting sealant and inflating the tire, drive the vehicle 5 miles
(8 km) or 10 minutes to ensure distribution of the TIREFIT Sealant within the tire.
Do not exceed 55 mph (88 km/h).
(E) After Driving:
• Pull over to a safe location. Refer to “Whenever You Stop to Use TIREFIT” before
continuing.
1. Turn the Mode Select Knob (5) to the Air Mode position.
2. Uncoil the Air Pump Hose (7) (black in color) and screw the fitting at the end of
hose (7) onto the valve stem.
3. Uncoil the power plug and insert the plug into the vehicles 12 Volt power outlet.
4. Check the pressure in the tire by reading the Pressure Gauge (3).
•If tire pressure is less than 19 psi (1.3 kPa), the tire is too badly dam-
aged. Do not attempt to drive the vehicle further. Call for assistance.
