TOWING TIPS
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 a drive strategy to avoid frequent shifting when towing. How-
ever, if frequent shifting does occur
while in DRIVE, you can use the
AutoStick® shift control (for
versions/markets, where provided) to
manually select a lower gear.
NOTE: Using a lower gear while
operating the vehicle under heavy
loading conditions will improve
performance and extend transmis-
sion life by reducing excessive
shifting and heat buildup. This ac-
tion will also provide better engine
braking.
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" (five-speed transmis-
sion only). Refer to the “Maintenance
Schedule” for the proper maintenance
intervals.
Electronic Speed Control
Do not use in hilly terrain or with
heavy loads.

WARNING!(Continued)
Take care not to allow the con-tents of TIREFIT to come in con-
tact with hair, eyes, or clothing.
TIREFIT is harmful if inhaled,
swallowed, or absorbed through
the skin: It causes skin, eye, and
respiratory irritation. Flush im-
mediately with plenty of water if
there is any contact with eyes or
skin. Change clothing as soon as
possible, if there is any contact
with clothing.
TIREFIT Sealant solution con- tains latex. In case of allergic re-
action or rash, consult a physi-
cian immediately. Keep TIREFIT
out of reach of children. If swal-
lowed, rinse mouth immediately
with plenty of water and drink
plenty of water. Do not induce
vomiting! Consult a physician
immediately.
Use the gloves provided in the Accessory Storage Compartment
(located on the bottom of the air
pump) when operating the TIRE-
FIT kit.
SEALING A TIRE WITH
TIREFIT
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use
TIREFIT:
1. Pull over to a safe location and
turn on the vehicle’s Hazard Warning
flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the
wheel with the deflated tire) is in a
position that is near to the ground.
This will allow the TIREFIT Hoses
(6) and (7) to reach the valve stem
and keep the TIREFIT kit flat on the
ground. This will provide the best po-
sitioning of the kit when injecting the
sealant into the deflated tire and run-
ning the air pump. Move the vehicle as
necessary to place the valve stem in
this position before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK
(auto transmission) or in Gear
(manual transmission) and turn Off
the ignition.
4. Set the parking brake. (B) Setting Up To Use TIREFIT:
1. Turn the Mode Select Knob (5) to
the Sealant Mode position.
2. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) and
then remove the cap from the fitting
at the end of the hose.
3. Place the TIREFIT kit flat on the
ground next to the deflated tire.
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 before turning ON the TIREFIT kit.
256

NOTE: Manual transmission ve-
hicles must have the parking
brake engaged and the shift lever
in NEUTRAL.
After pressing the Power Button(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 within0–10seconds 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 dispense 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 Seal-
ant 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.
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.
If the tire inflates to the recom-
mended pressure or is at least 1.8
Bar pressure within 15 minutes:
1. Press the Power Button (4) to turn
off the TIREFIT kit.

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.
5. Insert a screwdriver or similar tool
into the access port (in the left side of
the storage bin), and push and hold
the override release lever in.6. Move the shift lever to the NEU-
TRAL position.
7. The vehicle may then be started in
NEUTRAL.
8. Reinstall the rubber storage bin
liner.
MANUAL PARK
RELEASE — 8 SPEED
TRANSMISSION
WARNING!
Always secure your vehicle by fully
applying the parking brake, before
activating the Manual Park Re-
lease. Activating the Manual Park
Release will allow your vehicle to
roll away if it is not secured by the
parking brake or by proper connec-
tion to a tow vehicle. Activating the
Manual Park Release on an unse-
cured vehicle could lead to serious
injury or death for those in or
around the vehicle.
In order to push or tow the vehicle in
cases where the transmission will not
shift out of PARK (such as a dead
battery), a Manual Park Release is
available.

Proper towing or lifting equipment is
required to prevent damage to your
vehicle. Use only tow bars and other
equipment designed for this purpose,
following equipment manufacturer’s
instructions. Use of safety chains is
mandatory. Attach a tow bar or other
towing device to main structural
members of the vehicle, not to bum-
pers or associated brackets. State and
local laws regarding vehicles under
tow must be observed.
If you must use the accessories (wip-
ers, defrosters, etc.) while being
towed, the ignition must be in the
ON/RUN position, not the ACC posi-
tion. If the vehicle's battery is discharged,
see “Manual Park Release” or “Shift
Lever Override” in this section for
instructions on shifting the transmis-
sion out of PARK for towing.
CAUTION!
Do not use sling type equipment
when towing. Damage to the fas-
cia will occur.

When securing the vehicle to a
flatbed truck, do not attach to the
front or rear suspension compo-
nents. Damage to your vehicle may
result from improper towing.
(Continued)
CAUTION!(Continued)
Do not push or tow this vehicle with another vehicle as damage to
the bumper fascia and transmis-
sion may result.
The manufacturer does not rec- ommend towing this vehicle using
a tow dolly. Vehicle damage may
occur.
The manufacturer recommends tow-
ing your vehicle with all four wheels
OFF the ground using a flatbed.
