THE ENGINE –
TROUBLESHOOTING
STARTING AND STOPPING THE
ENGINE – WARNING LAMPS
Malfunction Indicator Lamp If it illuminates when the engine
is running, the on-board
diagnostics system is detecting
a malfunction of the vehicle emission
control system.
If it flashes, engine misfire could be
occurring. Increased exhaust gas
temperatures could damage the catalytic
converter or other vehicle components.
Avoid heavy acceleration and deceleration,
and have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.
Powertrain Warning Lamp If it illuminates when the engine
is running, this indicates a
powertrain or four-wheel drive
fault. If it flashes when you are driving,
immediately reduce the vehicle speed.
Avoid heavy acceleration and deceleration,
and have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.
If both lamps illuminate when the engine
is running, stop your vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so. Continuing to drive your
vehicle could cause reduced power or the
engine to stop. Switch the ignition off and
attempt to restart the engine. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.

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 328).
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.
SELECTING THE CORRECT FUEL
FOR COLD WEATHER - DIESEL
Choosing the Right Fuel: Vehicles
Operated Where Ultra Low Sulfur
Diesel Fuel Is Required (United
States/Canada/Puerto Rico/U.S.
Virgin Islands And Other Locales)
Note: Your Warranty will not cover damage
caused by using an improper type of fuel or
fuel additive.
