Oil Pressure Warning Lamp It illuminates when you switch
the ignition on.
If it illuminates when the engine
is running this indicates a malfunction.
Stop your vehicle as soon as it is safe to
do so and switch the engine off. Check the

this indicates a system malfunction. Have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
See Engine Oil Check (page 232).

the parking lamps on.
Service Engine Soon If it illuminates when the engine
is running this indicates a
malfunction. The On Board

malfunction of the vehicle emission control
system.
If it flashes, engine misfire may be
occurring. Increased exhaust gas
temperatures could damage the catalytic
converter or other vehicle components.
Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy
acceleration and deceleration) and have
your vehicle immediately serviced. It illuminates when you switch the ignition
on prior to engine start to check the bulb
and to indicate whether your vehicle is
ready for Inspection and Maintenance
(I/M) testing.
Normally, it illuminates until the engine is
cranked and automatically turns off if no
malfunctions are present. However, if after
15 seconds it flashes eight times, this
indicates that your vehicle is not ready for
Inspection and Maintenance (I/M) testing.
See
Catalytic Converter (page 143).

Control Indicator Flashes during operation.
If it does not illuminate when you
switch the ignition on, or remains
on when the engine is running, this

G
A/C:
Press to switch the air
conditioning on or off. Use A/C
with recirculated air to improve
cooling performance and
efficiency.
H
Note:
In certain conditions (for
example, maximum defrost), the
air conditioning compressor may
continue to operate even though
you switch off the air
conditioning.

in the passenger compartment
recirculates. This may reduce the
time needed to cool the interior

reduce unwanted odors from
entering your vehicle.
L
Note:
Recirculated air may turn
off (or prevent you from
switching on) in all air flow
modes except MAX A/C to
reduce the risk of fogging or to
improve cooling efficiency.

INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: You may feel a small amount of air
from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats.
Note: Remove any snow, ice or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windshield.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNINGS
Extended idling at high engine
speeds can produce very high
temperatures in the engine and
exhaust system, creating the risk of fire or
other damage. Do not park, idle or drive your vehicle
on dry grass or other dry ground
cover. The emission system heats up
the engine compartment and exhaust
system, creating the risk of fire. Do not start the engine in a closed
garage or in other enclosed areas.
Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Always
open the garage door before you start the
engine. Exhaust leaks may result in entry of
harmful and potentially lethal fumes
into the passenger compartment. If
you smell exhaust fumes inside your
vehicle, have your vehicle inspected
immediately. Do not drive if you smell
exhaust fumes. If you disconnect the battery, your vehicle
may exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics for approximately 5 mi
(8 km) after you reconnect it. This is
because the engine management system
must realign itself with the engine. You
can disregard any unusual driving
characteristics during this period.
The powertrain control system meets all
Canadian interference-causing equipment
standard requirements regulating the
impulse electrical field or radio noise.
When you start the engine, avoid pressing
the accelerator pedal before and during
operation. Only use the accelerator pedal
when you have difficulty starting the
engine. KEYLESS STARTING
Note:
The keyless starting system may not
function if the key is close to metal objects
or electronic devices such as cellular
phones.
Note: A valid key must be located inside
your vehicle to switch the ignition on and
start the engine.
Ignition Modes The keyless starting system has three
modes:
Off: Turns the ignition off.
• Without applying the brake pedal,
press and release the button once
when the ignition is in the on mode, or
when the engine is running but the
vehicle is not moving.
On:
All electrical circuits are operational
and the warning lamps and indicators
illuminate.
• Without applying the brake pedal,
press and release the button once.
Start:
Starts the engine.

The instrument cluster displays the current
gear.
Park (P)
This position locks the transmission and
prevents the rear wheels from turning.
Come to a complete stop before putting
your vehicle into and out of park (P).
Reverse (R)
With the selector in reverse (R), your
vehicle moves backward. Always come to
a complete stop before shifting into and
out of reverse (R).
Neutral (N)
With the selector in neutral (N), you can
start your vehicle and it is free to roll. Hold
the brake pedal down when in this position. Drive (D)
Drive (D) is the normal driving position for
the best fuel economy. The overdrive
function allows automatic upshifts and
downshifts through all gears.
Sport (S)
Putting your vehicle in sport (S):
•
Provides additional engine braking and
extends lower gear operation to
enhance performance for uphill climbs,
hilly terrain or mountainous areas. This
increases engine RPM during engine
braking.
• Provides additional lower gear
operation through the automatic
transmission shift strategy.
• Provides gear upshifts and downshifts
more quickly at higher engine speeds.
SelectShift Automatic ™
Transmission
This feature gives you the ability to change
gears up or down as desired.
As long as the engine speed does not
exceed the maximum allowable limit,
downshifts are allowed. SelectShift
automatically downshifts at low engine
speeds in order to prevent engine stalls.
Note: Engine damage may occur if you
maintain excessive engine revving without
shifting.
In drive (D) SelectShift automatically
upshifts at the optimal max engine speed,
regardless of accelerator pedal travel.
In sport (S) mode SelectShift does not
automatically upshift, even if the engine is
approaching the RPM limit.
Pull the + paddle on the steering wheel
to activate SelectShift.
• Pull the right paddle (+) to upshift.
• Pull the left paddle (–) to downshift.
