WIND BUFFETING
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception
of pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound
in the ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting
with the windows down, or the sunroof (if
equipped) in certain open or partially open
positions. This is a normal occurrence and can be
minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear
windows open, open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting
occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof
opening to minimize the buffeting or open any
window.
PANORAMIC SUNROOF — IF EQUIPPED
The Panoramic Sunroof switch is located to the left
between the sun visors on the overhead console.
The Power Shade switch is located to the right
between the sun visors on the overhead console.
Panoramic Sunroof And Power Shade Switches

OPENING AND CLOSING THE SUNROOF

WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Never
leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a
location accessible to children. Do not leave
the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in the ACC or
ON/RUN position. Occupants, particularly
unattended children, can become entrapped
by the power sunroof while operating the
power sunroof switch. Such entrapment may
result in serious injury or death.
In a collision, there is a greater risk of being
thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof.
You could also be seriously injured or killed.
Always fasten your seat belt properly and
make sure all passengers are also properly
secured.
Do not allow small children to operate the
sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other body
parts, or any object, to project through the
sunroof opening. Injury may result.
WARNING!

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using. When using
your vacuum, basic precautions should be
followed, including the following:
WARNING!
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing
children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle,
or in a location accessible to children, and do
not leave the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in
either the ACC position, or engine running
(ON), unless you are using the vacuum
system. Be aware a child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle
when the vacuum system is in use. ALWAYS
push ignition button to place ignition in the
OFF position when finished using the vacuum
system.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, serious injury or death:
 Do not use vacuum while vehicle is
in motion or while driving.
Do not vacuum wet surfaces or any liquids.
Do not use to vacuum up anything outside of
the vehicle.
 Do not vacuum any flammable
liquids, such as gasoline, or use
around explosive vapors. Vapors
from flammable liquids may form an
explosive mixture with air and can be ignited
by heat, sparks, or flames. Vapors may travel
to a source of ignition and explode.
Do not vacuum anything that is burning or
smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot
ashes/embers.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close atten -
tion is necessary when used by or near chil -
dren.
Do not leave the vacuum running while unat -
tended.
Use only as described in this manual. Use only
attachments provided with your vehicle.
Do not put any object into openings. Do not
use with any opening blocked; keep free of
dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce
air flow.
Do not vacuum toxic material such as chlorine
bleach, ammonia, drain cleaner, etc.
Do not vacuum hard or sharp objects such as
glass, nails, screws, coins, etc.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts
of body away from openings and moving parts.
Only use with filter in place. Periodically check
that the filter is in place and in good condition.
WARNING!
This equipment incorporates parts such as
switches, motors, or the like that tend to
produce arcs or sparks that can cause an
explosion. When using your vacuum near
gasoline-dispensing equipment or service
stations, park vehicle at least 20 ft (6 m) away
from the exterior enclosure of any dispensing
pump. The vacuum is mounted more than
18 inches (45 cm) above ground level in your
vehicle.

fully extend the hose in a straight line while the
vacuum motor is running. If this does not
dislodge the object, turn the vacuum OFF and
remove the hose from the vehicle using the
subsequent removal instructions. If the filter is
clogged, follow the emptying debris bin proce -
dure and lightly tap the filter on the collection
bin to remove any collected debris from the
filter. Both the bin and the filter can be rinsed
with water if needed. To avoid mold and stale
odors, allow both to dry completely before rein -
stalling in your vehicle. If the filter has tears,
holes or other damage and needs to be
replaced, please contact an authorized dealer.
If there are any other issues with your vacuum,
contact an authorized dealer. Your vacuum has
no user serviceable parts.
Debris Bin
The debris bin is located behind the access panel
behind the third row seat on the driver’s side.
To Empty

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTIONS

1. Tachometer

Indicates the engine speed in revolutions
per minute (RPM x 1000).
2. Instrument Cluster Display
When the appropriate conditions exist, this
display shows the instrument cluster
display messages Ú page 113.
The display shows one of the main menu
items after the ignition is turned/placed on.
3. Speedometer
Indicates vehicle speed.
4. Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge shows engine
coolant temperature. Any reading within the
normal range indicates that the engine
cooling system is operating satisfactorily.
The gauge can indicate a higher tempera -
ture when driving in hot weather or up
mountain grades. It should not be allowed
to exceed the upper limits of the normal
operating range. 5. Fuel GaugeThe gauge shows the level of fuel in the
fuel tank when the ignition switch is in the
ON/RUN position.
 The fuel pump symbol points to
the side of the vehicle where the
fuel door is located.
NOTE:The hard telltales will illuminate for a bulb check
when the ignition is first cycled.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY
Your vehicle is equipped with an instrument cluster
display, which offers useful information to the
driver. With the ignition in the OFF position (and the
key removed, for vehicles with mechanical key),
opening/closing of a door will activate the display
for viewing, and display the total miles or
kilometers in the odometer. Your instrument
cluster display is designed to display important
information about your vehicle’s systems and
features. Using a driver interactive display located
on the instrument panel, your instrument cluster
display can show you how systems are working and
give you warnings when they are not. The steering
wheel mounted controls allow you to scroll through
and enter the main menus and submenus. You can
access the specific information you want and
make selections and adjustments.
WARNING!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system could
damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge
reaches “H” pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle
the vehicle with the air conditioner turned off
until the gauge drops back into the normal range
and is no longer red. If the gauge remains on the
“H”, turn the engine off immediately and call an
authorized dealer for service.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or
others could be badly burned by steam or boiling
coolant. You may want to call an authorized
dealer for service if your vehicle overheats
