To Use SOS - Emergency Call
Push and hold the SOS - Emergency Call
button for a few seconds. The LED, located
next to the SOS button, will blink once and
then stay on indicating a call has been placed.
NOTE:
If the SOS - Emergency Call button is acciden-
tally pushed, there is a 10 second delay before
the call is placed. The system will issue a
verbal alert that a call is about to be made. To
cancel the call connection, push the SOS -
Emergency Call button again.
Once a connection between the vehicle and an
emergency service operator is made, the SOS
- Emergency Call system will transmit the
following important vehicle information to the
operator:
Indication that the occupant placed an SOS
- Emergency Call.
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
The last known GPS coordinates of the
vehicle.
You will then be able to speak with the emer -
gency service operator to determine if addi -
tional help is needed.
The SOS - Emergency Call has priority over
other audio sources, which will be muted. If
you have a phone connected via Bluetooth, it
is disconnected and reconnected at the end of
the SOS - Emergency Call. Voice prompts will
guide you during the SOS - Emergency Call. If a connection is made between an emergency
service operator and your vehicle, emergency
service operators may record conversations
and sounds within your vehicle once a connec
-
tion is made, and by using the service you
consent to having this information shared.
NOTE:
If you have not subscribed to the SOS service
or if the service is not available or has expired,
the Connect system will display a dedicated
screen when the button is pressed informing
you to contact the national emergency number
9-1-1 (the respective graphic button will be
displayed to make the call if you have
connected your mobile phone via Bluetooth®
The call to the national emergency number
9-1-1 will be made via the mobile phone by
pressing red graphic button shown on the
Connect system display.
SOS Screen Message SOS - Emergency Call System Limitations
When the ignition switches to the RUN posi
-
tion, the Emergency Call system runs a routine
check. During this check, a red indicator will
illuminate for about three seconds. This signal
must not be confused with a fault warning. In
the event of a malfunction, the red indicator
would remain on. If the SOS - Emergency Call
system detects a malfunction, any of the
following may occur at the time the malfunc -
tion is detected:
NOTE:
The SOS Call function may not be available for
the first minute after the vehicle is started
The LED next to the SOS button will be
continuously illuminated red.
The Emergency Call system is powered by
its own non-rechargeable battery to ensure
operation, even when the vehicle battery is
discharged or disconnected. When system
battery is discharged, the instrument
cluster display will show a special message,
different than other messages referring to
other types of faults. In this case, the
system works only if powered by the
vehicle’s battery.
The instrument cluster will display a
message alerting you to contact the Service
Network along with a failure warning light.

Automatic Transmission
Use only a transmission oil with the character-
istics indicated
Ú
page 263.
Special Additives
Do not use any type of additive with the auto -
matic transmission oil. The automatic trans -
mission oil is a product designed specially for this vehicle and its performance may be
compromised through the use of further addi
-
tives.
Frequency of Oil Changes
In normal vehicle operating conditions, it is not
necessary to change the transmission oil.
Replacing The Battery
If necessary, replace the battery with another
battery with the same specifications. It is
advised to contact an authorized dealer for
replacement.
Follow the battery manufacturer's instructions
for maintenance.
Fuses
General Information
The fuses protect electrical systems against
excessive current.
When a device does not work, you must check
the electrical circuit inside of the fuse for a
break/melt.
Also, please be aware that using power outlets
for extended periods of time with the engine
off may result in vehicle battery discharge.
Blade Fuses
To avoid contamination from foreign
matter or moisture, use only new brake
fluid or fluid that has been in a tightly
closed container. Keep the master
cylinder reservoir cap secured at all times.
Brake fluid in a open container absorbs
moisture from the air resulting in a lower
boiling point. This may cause it to boil
unexpectedly during hard or prolonged
braking, resulting in sudden brake failure.
This could result in a collision.
Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can
result in spilling brake fluid on hot engine
parts, causing the brake fluid to catch fire.
Brake fluid can also damage painted and
vinyl surfaces, care should be taken to
avoid its contact with these surfaces.
Do not allow petroleum-based fluid to
contaminate the brake fluid. Brake seal
components could be damaged, causing
partial or complete brake failure. This
could result in a collision.
WARNING! (Continued)
CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your
transmission as the chemicals can damage
your transmission components. Such
damage is not covered by the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
CAUTION!
If a transmission fluid leak occurs, visit an
authorized dealer immediately. Severe
transmission damage may occur. An
authorized dealer has the proper tools to
adjust the fluid level accurately.

The pliers have two different ends, both of
which are specifically designed to remove the
different types of fuses present in the vehicle:
Fuse Extracting Pliers

2 — J-CASE fuse
WARNING!
When replacing a blown fuse, always use
an appropriate replacement fuse with the
same amp rating as the original fuse.
Never replace a fuse with another fuse of
higher amp rating. Never replace a blown
fuse with metal wires or any other mate
-
rial. Do not place a fuse inside a circuit
breaker cavity or vice versa. Failure to use
proper fuses may result in serious
personal injury, fire and/or property
damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that
the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or disen -
gaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact
an authorized dealer.
If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (air bag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system, trans -
mission system) or steering system blows,
contact an authorized dealer.
