Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the need to set the compass
manually. When the vehicle is new, the compass may appear erratic, and the cluster
will display dashes (- -) until the compass is calibrated.
You may also calibrate the compass by completing one or more 360 degree turns (in
an area free from large metal or metallic objects) until the dashes (- -) displayed in
the DID turns off. The compass will now function normally.

Using HomeLink
To operate, push and release the programmed HomeLink button. Activation will now
occur for the programmed device (i.e., garage door opener, gate operator, security
system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.,). The hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time.
WARNING!
• Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming theuniversal transceiver. Do not program the transceiver if people or pets are in the
path of the door or gate.
• Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while programming
the transceiver. Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains Carbon Monoxide (CO)
which is odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous when inhaled
and can cause you and others to be severely injured or killed.
POWER INVERTER
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt power inverter outlet located on the back of the center
console. This outlet can power cellular phones, electronics and other low power
devices requiring power up to 150 Watts.
NOTE:
The power inverter is designed with
built-in overload protection. If the power
rating of 150 Watts is exceeded, the
power inverter will automatically shut
down. Once the electrical device has
been removed from the outlet, the in-
verter should automatically reset. If the
power rating exceeds approximately
170 Watts, the power inverter may have
to be reset manually. To reset the inverter
manually, unplug the device and plug it
in again. To avoid overloading the circuit,
check the power ratings on electrical de-
vices prior to using the inverter.

The following features are available:
Lateral G-Force Left and Right
• The lateral g-force measures the (sideways) left and right force of the vehicle.
Longitudinal G-Force Acceleration and Braking
• The longitudinal g-force measures the acceleration and braking force of thevehicle.
Peak G-Forces Acceleration and Braking, Left and Right
• This shows the maximum g-forces that have been achieved since the last reset from the DID. Peak values are maintained through ignition cycles by the DID until
they are cleared by the driver.
Vehicle Speed
• Vehicle Speed measures the current speed of the vehicle in either mph or km/h, starting at 0 with no maximum value.
Steering Wheel Angle
• Steering Wheel Angle utilizes the steering angle sensor to measure the degree of the steering wheel relative to zero. The zero degree measurement indicates a
steering wheel straight ahead position. When the steering angle value is negative,
this indicates a turn to the left, and when the steering angle value is positive, a turn
to the right.

Exhaust Service Required — See Dealer Now
This message indicates regeneration has been disabled due to a system malfunction.
The Powertrain control Module (PCM) will register a fault code and the instrument
panel will display the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL).
CAUTION!
See your authorized dealer, as damage to the exhaust system could occur soon
with continued operation.
Exhaust Filter Full — Power Reduced See Dealer
The PCM derates the engine in order to limit the likelihood of permanent damage to
the after-treatment system. If this condition is not corrected and a dealer service is
not performed, extensive exhaust after-treatment damage can occur. Have your
vehicle serviced by your local authorized dealer.
NOTE:
Failing to follow the oil change indicator, changing your oil and resetting the oil
change indicator by 0 miles remaining will prevent the diesel exhaust filter from
performing it's cleaning routine. This will shortly result in a Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) and reduced engine power. Only an authorized dealer will be able to
correct this condition.
CAUTION!
See your authorized dealer, as damage to the exhaust system could occur with the
exhaust filter full.
DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) sometimes known simply by the name of its active
component, UREA – is a key component of selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
systems, which help diesel vehicles meet stringent emission regulations. DEF is a
liquid reducing agent that reacts with engine exhaust in the presence of a catalyst to
convert smog-forming nitrogen oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen and water vapor.
Your vehicle is equipped with a Selective Catalytic Reduction system in order to meet
the very stringent diesel emissions standards required by the Environmental Protec-
tion Agency. Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is the first and only technology in
decades to be as good for the environment as it is good for business and vehicle
performance.

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 — GASOLINE ENGINE
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change indicator system. The oil
change indicator 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 “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).
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator message after completing
the scheduled oil change.
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles
(16,000 km), twelve months or 350 hours of engine run time, whichever comes first.
The 350 hours of engine run or idle time is generally only a concern for fleet
customers.

SRT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
The Scheduled Maintenance services listed in this manual must be done at the times
or mileages specified to protect your vehicle warranty and ensure the best vehicle
performance and reliability. More frequent maintenance may be needed for vehicles
in severe operating conditions, such as dusty areas and very short trip driving.
Inspection and service should also be done anytime a malfunction is suspected.
The oil change indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in
for scheduled maintenance.
The Driver Information Display (DID) will display an “Oil Change Required” message
and a single chime will sound, indicating that an oil change is necessary.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indicator message will
illuminate. This means that service is required for your vehicle. Have your vehicle
serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km).
