eAssist Features
eAssist Overview
Vehicles with the 2.5L engine have
eAssist, with additional features that
contribute to increased efficiency.
Vehicles with eAssist have an
automatic engine Stop/Start feature.
This feature saves fuel by shutting
the engine off when the vehicle is
stopped. When the engine shuts off
automatically, all the accessories
will continue to operate normally. In
very hot or cold conditions, the
engine may not shut off. See
Starting the Engine 0177.
There are two air conditioning
settings available. The MAX setting
maximizes cabin comfort. The ECO
setting maximizes efficiency
allowing more frequent, and longer
engine stops than the MAX setting.
See Dual Automatic Climate Control
System 0157.
Vehicles with eAssist include an
AUTO STOP indicator on the
tachometer. See Instrument Cluster
0 114.

cluster comes on when there is a
problem with arming or disarming
the theft-deterrent system.

transmitters matched to an
immobilizer control unit in the
vehicle. Only a correctly matched
transmitter will start the vehicle.
If the transmitter is ever damaged,
you may not be able to start the
vehicle.
When trying to start the vehicle, the
security light comes on briefly when

72 Seats and Restraints
{Warning
Because airbags inflate with great
force and faster than the blink of
an eye, anyone who is up
against, or very close to, any
airbag when it inflates can be
seriously injured or killed. Do not
sit unnecessarily close to any
airbag, as you would be if sitting
on the edge of the seat or leaning
forward. Seat belts help keep you
in position before and during a
crash. Always wear a seat belt,
even with airbags. The driver
should sit as far back as possible
while still maintaining control of
the vehicle. The seat belts and
the front outboard passenger
airbags are most effective when
you are sitting well back and
upright in the seat with both feet
on the floor.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Occupants should not lean on or
sleep against the door or side
windows in seating positions with
seat-mounted side impact airbags
and/or roof-rail airbags.
{Warning
Children who are up against,
or very close to, any airbag when
it inflates can be seriously injured
or killed. Always secure children
properly in the vehicle. To read
how, seeOlder Children 083 or
Infants and Young Children 085.
There is an airbag readiness light
on the instrument cluster, which
shows the airbag symbol. The
system checks the airbag electrical
system for malfunctions. The light
tells you if there is an electrical
problem. See Airbag Readiness
Light 0121.
Where Are the Airbags?
The driver frontal airbag is in the
center of the steering wheel.
The front outboard passenger
frontal airbag is in the passenger
side instrument panel.
