XXX MILES (km) TO E
This displays an estimate of approximatelyhow far you can drive with the fuelremaining in your tank under normal drivingconditions. Remember to turn the ignitionoff when refueling to allow this feature todetect the correct amount of added fuel.
The system calculates the distance toempty by using a running average fueleconomy, which uses your recent drivinghistory of 500 miles (800 km).
This value is not the same as the averagefuel economy display. The running averagefuel economy resets to a factory defaultvalue if the battery is disconnected.
XX.X AVG MPG (L/100km)
Average fuel economy displays youraverage fuel economy in miles per gallonor liters/100 km.
MPG (L/km)
Displays the instantaneous fuel economyas a bar graph. Your vehicle must bemoving to calculate instantaneous fueleconomy. You cannot reset theinstantaneous fuel economy.

To operate the heated seats, touch theheated seat symbol on the touchscreen tocycle through the various heat settings andoff. More indicator lights indicate warmersettings.
Cooled Seats
The cooled seats will only function whenthe engine is running.
To operate the cooled seats, touch thecooled seat symbol on the touchscreen tocycle through the various cool settings andoff. More indicator lights indicate coolersettings.
If the engine falls below 350 RPM whilethe cooled seats are on, the feature willturn itself off. You will need to reactivateit.
Climate Controlled Seat Air FilterReplacement
The climate controlled seat systemincludes air filters. You must replace themperiodically.
The filter is located under each front seat.Access the filter from the second rowfootwell area. Move the front seats all theway to the full front and full up positionsto ease access.
To remove a filter:
1. Turn the vehicle off.
2. Push up on the outside rigid edge ofthe filter until the tabs are released,then remove the filter.
To install a filter:
1. First, position the filter in its housingmaking sure that the far forward endis all the way up in the housing.
2. Push in on the center of the outsideedge of the filter and rotate clockwiseinto the housing until it clips intoposition.

•Transmissions give their best fueleconomy when operated in the topcruise gear and with steady pressureon the gas pedal.
•Four-wheel-drive operation (ifequipped) is less fuel efficient thantwo-wheel-drive operation.
•Close the windows for high-speeddriving.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER
WARNING
Do not drive through flowing or deepwater as you may lose control of yourvehicle.
Note:Driving through standing water cancause vehicle damage.
Note:Engine damage can occur if waterenters the air filter.
Before driving through standing water,check the depth. Never drive through waterthat is higher than the bottom of the wheelhubs.
When driving through standing water, drivevery slowly and do not stop your vehicle.Your brake performance and traction maybe limited. After driving through water andas soon as it is safe to do so:
•Lightly press the brake pedal to dry thebrakes and to check that they work.
•Check that the horn works.
•Check that the exterior lights work.
•Turn the steering wheel to check thatthe steering power assist works.
FLOOR MATS
WARNINGS
Always use floor mats that aredesigned to fit the foot well of yourvehicle. Only use floor mats thatleave the pedal area unobstructed. Onlyuse floor mats that are firmly secured toretention posts so that they cannot slip outof position and interfere with the pedalsor impair safe operation of your vehicle inother ways.
Pedals that cannot move freely cancause loss of vehicle control andincrease the risk of serious personalinjury.
Always make sure that the floormats are properly attached to theretention posts in the carpet that aresupplied with your vehicle. Floor mats mustbe properly secured to both retention poststo make sure mats do not shift out ofposition.
Never place floor mats or any othercovering in the vehicle foot well thatcannot be properly secured toprevent them from moving and interferingwith the pedals or the ability to control thevehicle.
Never place floor mats or any othercovering on top of already installedfloor mats. Floor mats should alwaysrest on top of vehicle carpeting surface andnot another floor mat or other covering.Additional floor mats or any other coveringwill reduce the pedal clearance andpotentially interfere with pedal operation.

ENGINE OIL CHECK
Note:For diesel engine information, referto the diesel supplement.
1. Make sure that your vehicle is on levelground.
2.Turn the engine off and wait 15 minutesfor the oil to drain into the oil pan.
3. Set the parking brake and ensure thegearshift is in P.
4. Open the hood. Protect yourself fromengine heat.
5.Locate and carefully remove the engineoil level dipstick. See the Under HoodOverview in this chapter for location ofdipstick.
6. Wipe the dipstick clean. Insert thedipstick fully, then remove it again.
•If the oil level is between the lowerand upper holes, the oil level isacceptable. DO NOT ADD OIL.
•If the oil level is below the lowerhole, add enough oil to raise thelevel within the lower and upperholes.
•Oil levels above the upper hole maycause engine damage. Some oilmust be removed from the engineby an authorized dealer.
7. Put the oil level dipstick back into theoil dipstick tube and ensure it is fullyseated.
Adding Engine Oil
Note:Do not remove the filler cap whenthe engine is running.
Note:Do not remove the engine oil leveldipstick when the engine is runnin
Note:Do not add oil further than the MAXmark. Oil levels above the MAX mark maycause engine damage.

Engine Fluid TemperatureManagement (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
To reduce the risk of collision andinjury, be prepared that the vehiclespeed may reduce and the vehiclemay not be able to accelerate with fullpower until the fluid temperatures reduce.
Never remove the coolant reservoircap while the engine is running or hot.
Your vehicle has been designed to pull atrailer, but because of the added load, thevehicle’s engine may temporarily reachhigher temperatures during severeoperating conditions such as ascending along or steep grade while pulling a trailerin hot ambient temperatures.
At this time, you may notice your enginecoolant temperature gauge needle movetoward the H and the POWER REDUCEDTO LOWER TEMP message may appearin the information display.
You may notice a reduction in the vehicle’sspeed caused by reduced engine power.In order to manage the engine fluidtemperatures, your vehicle may enter thismode if certain high-temperature andhigh-load conditions take place. Theamount of speed reduction will depend onthe vehicle loading, towing, grade, ambienttemperature, and other factors. If thisoccurs, there is no need to pull off the road.The vehicle can continue to be driven whilethis message is active.
The air conditioning may turn on and offduring severe operating conditions toprotect the engine from overheating. Whenthe engine coolant temperature decreasesto a more normal operating temperature,the air conditioning will turn on once again.
If the engine coolant temperature gaugemoves fully into the red (hot) area, or if thecoolant temperature warning or serviceengine soon messages appear in yourinformation display:
1. Stop your vehicle as soon as safelypossible and shift the transmission intopark (P).
2. Leave the engine running until thecoolant temperature gauge needlemoves away from the H range. Afterseveral minutes, if this does nothappen, follow the remaining steps.
3.Switch the engine off and wait for it tocool before checking the coolant level.
4. If the coolant level is normal, you mayrestart your engine and continue on.
5. If the coolant is low, add coolant,restart the engine and take your vehicleto an authorized dealer. See Addingengine coolant in this chapter for moreinformation. Refer to fail-safe coolingfor additional information.
