WARNINGS
Extended idling at high enginespeeds can produce very hightemperatures in the engine andexhaust system, creating the risk of fire orother damage.
Do not park, idle or drive your vehicleon dry grass or other dry groundcover. The emission system heats upthe engine compartment and exhaustsystem, creating the risk of fire.
Do not start the engine in a closedgarage or in other enclosed areas.Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Alwaysopen the garage door before you start theengine.
If you smell exhaust fumes insideyour vehicle, have your vehiclechecked by an authorized dealerimmediately. Do not drive your vehicle ifyou smell exhaust fumes.
If you disconnect the battery, your vehiclemay exhibit some unusual drivingcharacteristics for approximately 5 miles(8 kilometers) after you reconnect it. Thisis because the engine management systemmust realign itself with the engine. You candisregard any unusual drivingcharacteristics during this period.
The powertrain control system meets allCanadian interference-causing equipmentstandard requirements regulating theimpulse electrical field or radio noise.
When you start the engine, avoid pressingthe accelerator pedal before and duringoperation. Only use the accelerator pedalwhen you have difficulty starting theengine.
IGNITION SWITCH
0(off) - The ignition is off.
Note:When you switch the ignition off andleave your vehicle, do not leave your key inthe ignition. This could cause your vehiclebattery to lose charge.
I (accessory) - Allows the electricalaccessories such as the radio to operatewhile the engine is not running.
Note:Do not leave the ignition key in thisposition for too long to avoid your vehiclebattery losing charge.
II (on) - All electrical circuits operational.Warning lamps and indicators areilluminated.
III (start) - cranks the engine. Release thekey as soon as the engine starts.
KEYLESS STARTING
Note:The system may not function if theremote control is close to metal objects orelectronic devices such as cell phones.

WARNING
If you smell exhaust fumes insideyour vehicle, have your vehiclechecked by your authorized dealerimmediately. Do not drive your vehicle ifyou smell exhaust fumes. Carbonmonoxide is present in exhaust fumes.Take precautions to avoid its dangerouseffects.
Important Ventilating Information
If you stop your vehicle and then leave theengine idling for long periods, werecommend that you do one of thefollowing:
•Open the windows at least 1.0 in(2.5 cm).
•Set your climate control to outside air.
STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE
Cold or Hot Engine
1.Switch the ignition on and wait untilthe glow plug indicator goes off.
2.Fully depress the clutch pedal (manualtransmission) or brake pedal(automatic transmission).
3.Start the engine.
Note:Do not touch the accelerator pedal.
Note:Releasing the clutch pedal (manualtransmission) or brake pedal (automatictransmission) while the engine is startingwill stop the engine cranking and return toignition on.
Note:When the temperature is below 5°F(-15°C), you may need to crank the enginefor up to 10 seconds.
Note:You can only operate the starter fora limited period of time.
Note:After a limited number of attemptsto start your engine, the system does notallow you to try again until a period of timehas elapsed, for example 30 minutes.
Failure to Start
If the engine does not crank when theclutch pedal has been fully depressed andthe ignition key is turned to position III.
1.Fully depress the clutch and brakepedals.
2.Turn the key to position III until theengine starts.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
The filter forms part of the emissionsreduction system on your vehicle. It filtersharmful diesel particulates (soot) from theexhaust gas.
Regeneration
WARNING
Do not park or idle your vehicle overdry leaves, dry grass or othercombustible materials. Theregeneration process creates very highexhaust gas temperatures and the exhaustwill radiate a considerable amount of heatduring and after regeneration and after youhave switched the engine off. This is apotential fire hazard.
Note:Avoid running out of fuel.
Note:During regeneration at low speed orengine idle, you may smell a hot metallicodor and could notice a clicking metallicsound. This is due to the high temperaturesreached during regeneration and is normal.
