HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Essential Information
Each time direction instructions (left/right or
forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are
given, these must be intended as regarding
an occupant in the driver's seat. Special
cases not complying with this rule will be
properly specified in the text.
The figures in this User Guide are provided
by way of example only: this might imply that
some details of the image do not correspond
to the actual arrangement of your vehicle.
In addition, the User Guide has been
conceived considering vehicles with the
steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore
possible that in vehicles with the steering
wheel on the right side, the position or
construction of some controls is not exactly
mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information
needed you can consult the index at the end
of this User Guide.
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedi-
cated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd
page. A few pages further there is a key for
getting to know the chapter order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is always
a textual indication of the current chapter at
the side of each even page.Symbols
Some vehicle components have colored
labels whose symbols indicate precautions to
be observed when using this component.
Refer to “Warning Lights and Messages” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel”
for further information on the symbols used
in your vehicle.
ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
This vehicle has a higher ground clearance
and a higher center of gravity than many
passenger vehicles. It is capable of
performing better in a wide variety of off-road
applications. Driven in an unsafe manner, all
vehicles can go out of control. Because of the
higher center of gravity, if this vehicle is out
of control it may roll over when some other
vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneu
-
vers, or other unsafe driving actions that can
cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to
operate this vehicle safely may result in a
collision, rollover of the vehicle, and severe
or fatal injury. Drive carefully.
Rollover Warning Label
Failure to use the driver and passenger seat
belts provided is a major cause of severe or
fatal injury. In a rollover crash, an unbelted
person is significantly more likely to die than
a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle
up.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
KEYS
Key Fobs
Your vehicle uses either a key start ignition
system or keyless ignition system. The igni-
tion system consists of a key fob with a
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and an ignition
switch. The keyless ignition system consists
of a key fob and Keyless Enter-N-Go button.
NOTE:
The key fob may not be found if it is located
next to a mobile phone, laptop or other elec -
tronic device; these devices may block the
key fob’s wireless signal. The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the
doors and liftgate from distances up to
approximately 66 ft (20 m) using a handheld
key fob. The key fob does not need to be
pointed at the vehicle to activate the system.
Keyless Ignition Key Fob Key Fob With An Integrated Vehicle Key
NOTE:
In case the ignition switch does not change
with the push of a button, the key fob may
have a low or fully depleted battery. A low key
fob battery can be verified by referring to the
instrument cluster, which will display direc -
tions to follow.
The keyless ignition key fob also includes an
emergency key, which stores in the rear of
the key fob.
CAUTION!
The electrical components inside of the
key fob may be damaged if the key fob is
subjected to strong electrical shocks. In
order to ensure complete efficiency of the
electronic devices inside of the key fob,
avoid exposing the key fob to direct
sunlight.

On models equipped with an automatic
transmission, the ignition key is only remov -
able when the gear selector is in PARK.
Electronic Steering Wheel Lock — If
Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a passive
electronic steering wheel lock. This lock
prevents steering the vehicle with the igni -
tion OFF. The steering wheel lock releases
with the ignition ON. If the lock does not
disengage and the vehicle does not start,
turn the wheel to the left and right to disen -
gage the lock.
Mechanical Steering Wheel Lock — If
Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
mechanical steering wheel lock. This lock
prevents steering the vehicle with the igni -
tion OFF. With the engine running, rotate the
steering wheel one-half revolution in either direction (six o’clock position), turn off the
engine and remove the key. Turn the steering
wheel slightly in either direction until the
lock engages.
REMOTE STARTING

garage or confined area. Exhaust gas
contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is
odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide
is poisonous and can cause serious
injury or death when inhaled.
Keep key fobs away from children. Oper
-
ation of the Remote Start System,

The premium vehicle security alarm system
monitors the doors, hood latch, and liftgate
for unauthorized entry and the ignition
switch for unauthorized operation. The
system also includes a dual function intru -
sion sensor and vehicle tilt sensor. The intru -
sion sensor monitors the vehicle interior for
motion. The vehicle tilt sensor monitors the
vehicle for any tilting actions (tow away, tire
removal, ferry transport, etc). A siren with
battery backup which senses interruptions of
power and communications is also included.
If a perimeter violation triggers the security
system, the siren will sound for 29 seconds
and the exterior lights will flash followed by
approximately five seconds of no activity.
This will continue for eight cycles if no action
is taken to disarm the system.
