TABLE OF CONTENTS

Panic Alarm
• To turn the Panic Alarm feature ON or OFF, push and hold the PANIC button on the RKEtransmitter for at least one second and release. When the Panic Alarm is on, the headlights and
park lights will flash, the horn will pulse on and off and the interior lights will turn on.
• The Panic Alarm will stay on for three minutes unless you turn it off by pushing the PANIC button a second time or if the vehicle speed is 5 mph (8 km/h) or greater.
NOTE:
When you turn off the Panic Alarm by pushing the PANIC button a second time, you may have
to move closer to the vehicle due to the radio frequency noises of the system.
WARNING!
• When leaving the vehicle, always make sure the ignition is in the OFF position, remove the key fob from the vehicle, and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing
children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the transmission gear selector.
• Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle (or in a location accessible to children). A
child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
REMOTE START
• Push the REMOTE START buttonx2on the Key Fob twice within five seconds. Pushing
the REMOTE START button a third time shuts the engine off.
• To drive the vehicle, push the UNLOCK button and cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
With Remote Start, the engine will only run for 15 minutes (timeout) unless the ignition is cycled
to the ON/RUN position.
The vehicle must be cycled to the ON/RUN position after two consecutive timeouts.
WARNING!
• Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or confined area. Exhaust gas contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous
and can cause you or others to be severely injured or killed when inhaled.
• Keep Key Fob transmitters away from children. Operation of the Remote Start System,
windows, door locks or other controls could cause you and others to be severely injured or
killed.

STOP/START SYSTEM — 2.4L ENGINE
The Stop/Start function is developed to save fuel and reduce emissions. The system will stop the
engine automatically during a vehicle stop if the required conditions are met. Releasing the brake
pedal or pressing the accelerator pedal on an automatic transmission will start the engine.
Automatic Mode
The Stop/Start feature is enabled after every normal customer engine start. It will remain in
STOP/START NOT READY until you drive forward with a vehicle speed greater than 5 mph
(8 km/h). At that time, the system will go into STOP/START READY and if all other conditions
are met, can go into a STOP/START AUTOSTOP ACTIVE “Autostop” mode.
To Activate The Autostop Mode, The Following Must Occur:
• The system must be in STOP/START READY state. A STOP/START READY message willbe displayed in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) or Driver Information
Display (DID) within the Stop/Start section. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)” or “Driver Information Display (DID)” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in
your owners manual on the DVD for further information.
• The vehicle must be completely stopped.
• The shifter must be in DRIVE or NEUTRAL and the brake pedal depressed.
The engine will shut down, the tachometer will move to the zero position and the Stop/Start
telltale will illuminate indicating you are in Autostop. While in Autostop, the Climate Controls
system may automatically adjust airflow to maintain cabin comfort. Customer settings will be
maintained upon return to an engine running condition.

ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE (EPB)
Your vehicle is equipped with an Electric Parking Brake System (EPB) that offers simple
operation, and some additional features that make the parking brake more convenient and useful.
The parking brake switch is located in the center console.
To engage the parking brake manually, pull up
on the switch momentarily.
To release the parking brake manually, the igni-
tion switch must be in the ON/RUN position.
Push on the brake pedal, then push the parking
brake switch down momentarily.
The parking brake will disengage automatically
when the ignition switch in the RUN position,
the transmission is in DRIVE or REVERSE, the
driver seat belt is buckled, and an attempt is
made to drive away by pressing the accelerator
pedal.
NOTE:
• You may hear a slight whirring sound fromthe back of the vehicle while the parking brake engages or disengages.
• Once the parking brake is fully engaged, the BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster and the LED indicator on the switch will illuminate. Once the parking brake is fully disengaged,
the BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster and the LED indicator on the switch will
extinguish.
• If your foot is on the brake pedal while you are engaging or disengaging the parking brake, you may notice a small amount of brake pedal movement.
• The parking brake can be engaged even when the ignition switch is OFF, however, it can only be disengaged when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN position.
• The EPB fault lamp will illuminate if the EPB switch is held for longer than 20 seconds in either the released or applied position. The light will extinguish upon releasing the switch.
• Refer to the Starting and Operating section of your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further details.

CAUTION!
If the Brake System Warning Light remains on with the parking brake released, a brake system
malfunction is indicated. Have the brake system serviced by an authorized dealer immediately.
WARNING!
• Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply theparking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and possible injury or
damage.
• When leaving the vehicle, always make sure the ignition is in the OFF position, remove the
key fob from the vehicle, and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing
children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the transmission gear selector.
• Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle, (or in a location accessible to children),
and do not leave the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN position. A child could operate
power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
• Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged before driving; failure to do so can lead to
brake failure and a collision.
• Always fully apply the parking brake when leaving your vehicle, or it may roll and cause
damage or injury. Also be certain to leave the transmission in PARK. Failure to do so may
allow the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury.
• Driving the vehicle with the parking brake engaged, or repeated use of the parking brake
to slow the vehicle may cause serious damage to the brake system.

WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when the Transmission Temperature Warning Light is
illuminated you could cause the fluid to boil over, come in contact with hot engine or exhaust
components and cause a fire.
- Seat Belt Reminder Light
When the ignition switch is first turned to ON/RUN, this light will turn on if the driver’s seat belt
is unbuckled, a chime will sound. When driving, if the driver’s seat belt remains unbuckled, the
Seat Belt Reminder Light will illuminate and the chime will sound.
Please have your vehicle serviced immediately.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may have
failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a collision. Have the vehicle
checked immediately.
- Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various brake functions, including brake fluid level and parking brake appli-
cation. If the brake light turns on it may indicate that the parking brake is applied, that the brake
fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with the anti-lock brake system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been disengaged, and the fluid level is at the
full mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake hydraulic system malfunc-
tion or that a problem with the Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS)/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. In this case, the light will remain on until the
condition has been corrected. If the problem is related to the brake booster, the ABS pump will
run when applying the brake and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capacity in the event of a failure to a portion of
the hydraulic system. A leak in either half of the dual brake system is indicated by the Brake
Warning Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level in the master cylinder has dropped
below a specified level. The light will remain on until the cause is corrected.
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), are also equipped with Electronic
Brake Force Distribution (EBD). In the event of an EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light will turn
on along with the ABS Light. Immediate repair to the ABS system is required.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked by turning the ignition switch from the
OFF position to the ON/RUN position. The light should illuminate for approximately two
seconds. The light should then turn off unless the parking brake is applied or a brake fault is
detected. If the light does not illuminate, have the light inspected by an authorized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking brake is applied with the ignition switch in the
ON/RUN position.
