requires service. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Brake System It illuminates when you apply the
parking brake and the ignition is
on. If it illuminates when your
vehicle is moving, make sure the
parking brake is released. If the
parking brake is released, this
indicates low brake fluid level or the brake
system requires service. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Note: Indicators may vary depending on
region.

the ignition on and remains on if
any door is open.
Electric Parking Brake It illuminates or flashes when the
electric parking brake requires
service.

until you fasten the seatbelts. Hood Ajar It illuminates when the ignition
is on and the hood is not
completely closed.
Low Fuel Level It illuminates when the fuel level
is low.
Low Tire Pressure It illuminates when your tire
pressure is low. If illuminated,
check your tire pressure as soon
as possible. If it begins to flash at any time,
have the system checked as soon as
possible.
Low Washer Fluid Level It illuminates when the washer
fluid is low.
Oil Pressure It illuminates when the engine
oil pressure is low.
Powertrain Malfunction, Reduced
Power, Electronic Throttle Control,
Check 4X4 Illuminates when the powertrain
or four-wheel drive require

SELECTING THE CORRECT FUEL -
GASOLINE
Your vehicle operates on regular unleaded
gasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2
octane rating of 87.
Some fuel stations, particularly those in
high altitude areas, offer fuels posted as
regular unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating below 87. The use of these fuels
could result in engine damage that will not
be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
For best overall vehicle and engine
performance, premium fuel with an octane
rating of 91 or higher is recommended. The
performance gained by using premium fuel
is most noticeable in hot weather as well
as other conditions, for example when
towing a trailer. See Towing a Trailer
(page 403).
Do not be concerned if the engine
sometimes knocks lightly. However, if the
engine knocks heavily while using fuel with
the recommended octane rating, contact
an authorized dealer to prevent any engine
damage.
We recommend Top Tier detergent
gasolines, where available to help minimize
engine deposits and maintain optimal
vehicle and engine performance.
For additional information, visit
www .t op tier g a s. c om .Note:
Use of any fuel for which the vehicle
was not designed can impair the emission
control system, cause loss of vehicle
performance, and cause damage to the
engine which may not be covered by the
vehicle Warranty.
Do not use:
• Diesel fuel.
• Fuels containing kerosene or paraffin.
• Fuel containing more than 15% ethanol
or E85 fuel.
• Fuels containing methanol.
• Fuels containing metallic-based
additives, including manganese-based
compounds.
• Fuels containing the octane booster
additive, methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (MMT).
• Leaded fuel, using leaded fuel is
prohibited by law.
The use of fuels with metallic compounds
such as methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl, which is a
manganese-based fuel additive, will impair
engine performance and affect the
emission control system.
SWITCHING BETWEEN E85 AND
GASOLINE
We do not recommend repeatedly
alternating between E85 and gasoline. If
you switch from using E85 to gasoline, or
from gasoline to E85, add as much fuel as
possible, at least half a tank. Drive your
vehicle immediately for a minimum of 5 mi
(8 km)
to allow it to adapt to the change
in ethanol concentration. If you use E85
exclusively, we recommend that you fill
the fuel tank with regular unleaded
gasoline at each scheduled oil change.

When operating your vehicle with a
snowplow:
•
Do not exceed 45 mph (72 km/h).
• Your engine could run at a higher
temperature than normal.
•If you are driving more than
15 mi
(24 km) at temperatures above
freezing, angle the plow blade
either full left or full right to provide
maximum airflow to the radiator.
• If you are driving less than
15 mi
(24 km) at speeds up to 45 mph
(72 km/h) in cold weather, you do
not need to worry about blade
position to provide maximum
airflow.
• Shift to 4L when plowing in small areas
at speeds below
5 mph (8 km/h).
• Shift to
4H when plowing larger areas
or light snow at higher speeds above
5 mph (8 km/h)
. Do not exceed
15 mph (24 km/h).
• Do not shift the transmission from a
forward gear to reverse (R) until the
engine is at idle and the wheels have
stopped.
Note: Careless or high-speed driving when
snowplowing, which results in significant
vehicle decelerations, can deploy the airbag.
Such driving also increases the risk of
accidents.
Note: Drive your vehicle at least
500 mi
(800 km) before using your vehicle for
snowplowing.
Note: Follow the severe duty schedule for
engine oil and transmission fluid change
intervals. See
Special Operating
Conditions Scheduled Maintenance (page
648
). SNOWPLOW MODE
WHAT IS SNOWPLOW MODE
Snowplow mode reduces vehicle electrical
load to allow the electrical system to have
sufficient power to support residential
snowplow use.
SWITCHING SNOWPLOW MODE
ON AND OFF
Vehicles receive a physical button in the
instrument panel or an option in the SYNC
menu to enable snowplow mode.
Snowplow mode does not remember the
setting when you switch your vehicle off.
You must re-enable the mode every time
you wish to use it.
The following features turn off and are
disabled in snowplow mode and cannot
be turned back on until snowplow mode
is switched off:
•
120 V
inverter.
• Fog lamps.
• Heated and cooled front seats.
The body module also activates the
snowplow relay that provides power to
aftermarket snowplow controls.
Note: The electrical system supports the
addition of a residential snowplow of up to
60 A
continuous, and snowplow lights of
up to 20 A continuous using snowplow
mode. The system does not support
snowplow usage with additional electrical
aftermarket accessories.
Push Button
(If Equipped)
Press the snowplow button on the
instrument panel to switch on snowplow
mode. The snowplow button illuminates
and a message displays.
