HEATED SEATS
Front Heated Seats
The controls for the front heated seats are located on the outboard side of the seat.
•Press the switch once to turn on the heated seat.
•Press the switch a second time to turn off the heated seat.
WARNING!
•Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion or other
physical conditions must exercise care when using the seat heater.It may cause
burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long periods of time.
•Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against heat, such as a blanket or
cushion.This may cause the seat heater to overheat.Sitting in a seat that has been
overheated could cause serious burns due to the increased surface temperature of
the seat.
TILT/TELESCOPING STEERING COLUMN
The tilt/telescoping control handle is located on the lower left side of the steering column.
•To unlock the steering column, push the
lever downward (toward the floor).
•To tilt the steering column, move the
steering wheel upward or downward as
desired.
•To lengthen or shorten the steering col-
umn, pull the steering wheel outward or
push it inward as desired.
•
To lock the steering column in position,
push the lever upward until fully engaged.
WARNING!
Do not adjust the steering wheel while driving.The tilt/telescoping adjustment must be
locked while driving.Adjusting the steering wheel while driving or driving without the
tilt/telescoping adjustment locked could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Failure to follow this warning may result in you and others being severely injured or
killed.

IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
•In 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, shift transmission into NEUTRAL, but do not increase
engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an 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 Fan control to high.This allows the heater core to act as a supplement
to the radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.
•If the temperature reading does not return to normal, turn the engine off immediately.
•We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur.
Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle.If the temperature gauge
reads hot, 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, 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 pres-
sure cap when the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.

Preparations For Jump-Start
•The battery in your vehicle is located on the left side of the engine compartment.
1.Set the parking brake, shift the Euro
Twin Clutch Transmission into PARK and
turn the ignition to OFF/LOCK.
2.Turn off the heater, radio, and all unnec-
essary 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.
Jump-Starting Procedure
NOTE:
Before connecting the jumper cables to the discharged battery, the negative(-)battery
cable must be disconnected from the discharged battery.This is the only way to success-
fully jump start the vehicle.
Follow these steps to disconnect the negative(-)battery cable:
1.Pull outward on the negative(-)battery cable terminal release lever to the open posi-
tion.
2.Lift up on the negative(-)battery cable terminal and set aside.
•Connecting The Jumper Cables
1.Connect the positive(+)end of the jumper cable to the positive(+)post of the ve-
hicle with the discharged battery.
2.Connect the opposite end of the positive(+)jumper cable to the positive(+)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 the negative(-)battery
cable terminal of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
1 — Positive Terminal
2 — Negative Terminal
