MKC (TME), enUSA, First Printing Table of Contents

Your vehicle has a collection of crash and
occupant sensors which provide information
to the restraints control module which
deploys (activates) the front safety belt
pretensioners, driver airbag, passenger
airbag, knee airbag(s), seat mounted side
airbags, and the Safety Canopy. Based on
the type of accident (frontal impact, side
impact or rollover) the restraints control
module will deploy the appropriate safety
devices.
The restraints control module also monitors
the readiness of the above safety devices
plus the crash and occupant sensors. A
warning indicator light in the instrument
cluster indicates the readiness of the safety
system. If this warning indicator light is not
functioning and there is another fault within
the system, the message cluster may display
an airbag failure warning. See Information
Displays (page 109). You will hear five tones
that repeat periodically until you repair the
problem, the warning indicator light or both.
Routine maintenance of the airbag is not
required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated by
one or more of the following: •
The readiness light will not illuminate
immediately after the ignition is turned
on.
• The readiness light will either flash or
stay lit.
• A series of five beeps will be heard. The
tone pattern will repeat periodically until
the problem, the light or both are
repaired.
If any of these things happen, even
intermittently, have the supplemental
restraint system serviced at an authorized
dealer immediately. Unless serviced, the
system may not function properly in the
event of a crash.
The safety belt pretensioners and the airbag
supplemental restraint system is designed
to activate when your vehicle sustains frontal
or sideways deceleration sufficient to cause
the restraints control module to deploy a
safety device or when a certain likelihood of
a rollover event is detected by the rollover
sensor. The fact that the safety belt pretensioners or
airbags did not activate for both front seat
occupants in a crash does not mean that
something is wrong with the system. Rather,
it means the restraints control module
determined the accident conditions (for
example, crash severity, belt usage) were
not appropriate to activate these safety
devices.
•
The design of the front airbags is to
activate only in frontal and near-frontal
crashes (not rollovers, side impacts or
rear impacts) unless the crash causes
sufficient frontal deceleration.
• The safety belt pretensioners are
designed to activate in frontal,
near-frontal, side and rollover crashes.
• The design of the side airbags is to inflate
in certain side crashes. Side airbags may
activate in other types of crashes if the
vehicle experiences sufficient sideways
motion or deformation.

Press and release the liftgate control button.
Stopping the Liftgate Movement
You can stop the liftgate movement by doing
any of the following:
•
Pressing the liftgate control button.
• Pressing the liftgate button on the remote
control twice.
• Pressing the liftgate button on the
instrument panel.
• Activating the obstacle detection feature.
• Moving your foot under and away from
the center rear bumper in a single-kick
motion. * *
This method only works for vehicles with the
hands-free liftgate feature.
Setting the Liftgate Open Height
1. Open the liftgate.
2. Stop the liftgate movement by pressing the control button on the liftgate when it
reaches the desired height.
Note: Once the liftgate has stopped moving,
you can also manually move it to the desired
height.
3. Press and hold the liftgate control button
on the liftgate until you hear a chime,
indicating programming is complete.
Note: You can only use the liftgate control
button to program the height.
Note: You cannot program the height if the
liftgate position is too low.
The new open liftgate height is recalled
when the power liftgate is opened. To
change the programmed height, repeat the
above procedure. Once you open the power
liftgate, you can manually move it to a
different height. Note:
The system recalls the new
programmed height, even if you disconnect
the battery.
When operating the power liftgate after you
have programmed a lower height than fully
open, you can fully open the liftgate by
manually pushing it upward to the maximum
open position.
Obstacle Detection
When Closing
The system stops when it detects an
obstacle. Three tones sound and the system
reverses to open. Once you remove the
obstacle, you can power close the liftgate.
Note: Entering your vehicle while the liftgate
is closing can cause your vehicle to bounce
and activate obstacle detection. To prevent
this, let the power liftgate close completely
before you enter your vehicle. Before driving
off, check the instrument cluster for a liftgate
or door ajar message or warning indicator.
Failure to do this could result in
unintentionally leaving the liftgate open
while driving.

Fuel Gauge
Note: The fuel gauge may vary slightly when
your vehicle is moving or on a gradient.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will
indicate approximately how much fuel is left
in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to the
fuel pump symbol indicates on which side of
your vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
The needle should move toward F when you
refuel your vehicle. If the needle points to E
after adding fuel, this indicates your vehicle
needs service soon. After refueling some variability in needle
position is normal:
•
It may take a short time for the needle to
reach full after leaving the gas station.
This is normal and depends upon the
slope of pavement at the gas station.
• The fuel amount dispensed into the tank
is a little less or more than the gauge
indicated. This is normal and depends
upon the slope of pavement at the gas
station.
• If the gas station nozzle shuts off before
the tank is full, try a different gas pump
nozzle.
• There is a small reserve left in the tank
when the fuel gauge reaches empty. Low Fuel Reminder
A low fuel reminder triggers when the
distance to empty reaches 50 miles (80 km),
25 miles (40 km) and 10 miles (16 km) to
empty.
Variations:
Note:
The low fuel reminder can appear at
different fuel gauge positions depending on
fuel economy conditions. This variation is
normal.

Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
Indicates engine coolant temperature. At
normal operating temperature, the level
indicator will be in the normal range. If the
engine coolant temperature exceeds the
normal range, stop your vehicle as soon as
safely possible, switch off the engine and let
the engine cool.
WARNING
Never remove the coolant reservoir
cap while the engine is running or hot.
WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS
The following warning lamps and indicators
will alert you to a vehicle condition that may
become serious. Some lamps will illuminate
when you start your vehicle to make sure
they work. If any lamps remain on after
starting your vehicle, refer to the respective
system warning lamp for further information. Note:
Some warning indicators appear in
the information display and function the
same as a warning lamp, but do not display
when you start your vehicle.
Adaptive Cruise Control (If Equipped) The speed control system indicator
light changes color to indicate
what mode the system is in:
See
Using Adaptive Cruise Control (page 204).
On (white light): Illuminates when you turn
the adaptive cruise control system on. Turns
off when you turn the speed control system
off.
Engaged (green light): Illuminates when the
adaptive cruise control system engages.
Turns off when the speed control system is
disengaged. Anti-Lock Braking System If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a
malfunction. You will continue to
have normal braking (without Anti-lock
braking system) unless the brake system
warning lamp is also illuminated. Have the
system checked by an authorized dealer.
Battery If it illuminates while driving, it
indicates a malfunction. Switch off
all unnecessary electrical
equipment and have the system checked by
an authorized dealer immediately.

Brake System
It will illuminate when you engage
the parking brake with the ignition
on.
If it illuminates when you are driving, check
that you do not have the parking brake
engaged. If you do not have the parking
brake engaged, this indicates low brake fluid
level or a brake system malfunction. Have
the system checked immediately by an
authorized dealer. WARNING
Driving your vehicle with the warning
lamp on is dangerous. A significant
decrease in braking performance may occur.
It will take you longer to stop your vehicle.
Have your vehicle checked by your
authorized dealer immediately. Driving
extended distances with the parking brake
engaged can cause brake failure and the risk
of personal injury. Cruise Control (If Equipped)
It will illuminate when you switch
this feature on.
Direction Indicator Illuminates when you turn the left
or right direction indicator or the
hazard warning flasher on. If the
indicators stay on or flash faster, check for a
burned out bulb.
See Changing a Bulb
(page 299).
Door Ajar Displays when the ignition is on
and any door is not completely
closed.
Electric Park Brake It will illuminate or flash when the
electric parking brake has a
malfunction.
See Electric Parking
Brake (page 184). Engine Coolant Temperature Illuminates when the engine
coolant temperature is high. Stop
the vehicle as soon as possible,
switch off the engine and let cool.
See
Engine Coolant Check (page 289).
Engine Oil If it illuminates with the engine
running or when you are driving,
this indicates a malfunction. Stop
your vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so
and switch the engine off. Check the engine
oil level. See Engine Oil Check (page 288).
Note: Do not resume your journey if it
illuminates despite the level being correct.
Have the system checked by your authorized
dealer immediately.
