INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS
–ElectronicStabilityControl(ESC)Activation/Malfunction
Indicator Light
The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will come on when
the ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN position. It should go out with the engine running.
If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine
running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system.
If this light remains on after several ignition cycles,andthevehiclehasbeendrivenseveralmiles
(kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), we recommend you drive to the nearest
service center and have the vehicle serviced immediately.
–TirePressureMonitoringSystem(TPMS)Light
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to
the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires).
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as soon as possible and inflate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life and may affect the vehicle’s
handling and stopping ability.
IF THE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING INDICATING A LOW TIRE PRESSURE, ADJUST
THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE LOW TIRE TO THE AIR PRESSURE SHOWN ON THE
VEHICLE PLACARD OR TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE LABEL LOCATED ON THE
DRIVER'S DOOR.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INDICATOR LIGHTS
–TurnSignalIndicator
The arrows will flash with the exterior turn signals when the turn signal lever is operated. A tone
will chime, and a DID message will appear if either turn signal is left on for more than 1 mile
(1.6 km).
NOTE:
If either indicator flashes at a rapid rate, check for a defective outside light bulb.
–HighBeamIndicator
Indicates that headlights are on high beam.
–FrontFogLightIndicator
This indicator will illuminate when the front fog lights are on.
–VehicleSecurityLight
This light will flash rapidly for approximately 15 seconds when the vehicle security alarm is arming.
The light will flash at a slower speed continuously after the alarm is set. The security light will also
come on for about three seconds when the ignition is first turned on.
Electronic Speed Control Set
Indicates that the Electronic Speed Control has been set.
-AdaptiveCruiseControl(ACC)ONIndicator
•Ifyourvehicleisequippedwithadaptivecruisecontrol,thecontrolsoperateexactlythesame
as the normal (fixed speed) cruise control with one difference. You can set a specified distance
you would like to maintain between you and the vehicle in front of you.
• If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply limited braking or acceleration
automatically to maintain a preset following distance, while matching the speed of the vehicle
ahead.

while traveling on highways and major roadways. However, it is not a safety system and not
designed to prevent collisions.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
For information on the maintenance procedures for your vehicle, please refer to “Maintenance
Procedures” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” in your Owner’s Manual or applicable supplement on
the DVD for further details.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Yo u r v e h i c l e i s e q u i p p e d w i t h a n a u t o m a t i c o i l c h a n g e i n d i c a t o r s y s t e m . T h e o i l c h a n g e i n d i c a t o r
system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indicator message will illuminate. This
means that service is required for your vehicle. Operating conditions such as frequent short-trips,
trailer tow, extremely hot or cold ambient temperatures, and E85 fuel usage will influence when
the “Change Oil” or “Oil Change Required” message is displayed. Severe Operating Conditions
can cause the change oil message to illuminate as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km) since last reset.
Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km).
The “Oil Change Required” message will be displayed in the DID and a single chime will sound,
indicating that an oil change is necessary.
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator message after completing the scheduled
oil change. If a scheduled oil change is performed by someone other than your authorized dealer,
the message can be reset by referring to the steps described under “Instrument Cluster Warning
Lights” in “What To Do In Emergencies” in this guide or “Driver Information Dispay (DID)” in
“Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in your Owners Manual on the DVD for further infor-
mation.
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or twelve
months, whichever comes first.
Severe Duty All Models
Change Engine Oil at 4,000 miles (6,500 km) if the vehicle is operated in a dusty and off road
environment. This type of vehicle use is considered Severe Duty
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
•Checkengineoillevel
•Checkwindshieldwasherfluidlevel
• Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first sign of
irregular wear, even if it occurs before your next scheduled service.
•Checkthefluidlevelsofthecoolantreservoir,brakemastercylinder,andpowersteering(if
