Loss of the battery charge may indicate one or more of the 
following conditions:
The charging system cannot deliver enough electrical 
power to the vehicle system because the electrical 
loads are larger than the capability of the charging 
system. The charging system is still functioning 
properly.
 Turning on all possible vehicle electrical loads (e.g. 
HVAC to max settings, exterior and interior lights, 
overloaded power outlets +12 Volts, 115 Volts AC, USB 
ports) during certain driving conditions (city driving, 
towing, frequent stopping).
 Installing options like additional lights, upfitter elec -
trical accessories, audio systems, alarms and similar 
devices.
 Unusual driving cycles (short trips separated by long 
parking periods).
 The vehicle was parked for an extended period of time 
(weeks, months).
 The battery was recently replaced and was not charged 
completely.
 The battery was discharged by an electrical load left on 
when the vehicle was parked.
 The battery was used for an extended period with the 
engine not running to supply radio, lights, chargers, 
+12 Volts portable appliances like vacuum cleaners, 
game consoles and similar devices. What to do when an electrical load reduction action 
message is present 
(“Battery Saver On” or “Battery Saver Mode”)
During a trip:
Reduce power to unnecessary loads if possible:
 Turn off redundant lights (interior or exterior)
 Check what may be plugged in to power outlets 
+12 Volts, 115 Volts AC, USB ports
 Check HVAC settings (blower, temperature)
 Check the audio settings (volume)
After a trip:
 Check if any aftermarket equipment was installed 
(additional lights, upfitter electrical accessories, audio 
systems, alarms) and review specifications if any (load 
and Ignition Off Draw currents).
 Evaluate the latest driving cycles (distance, driving 
time and parking time).
 The vehicle should have service performed if the 
message is still present during consecutive trips and 
the evaluation of the vehicle and driving pattern did not 
help to identify the cause.

system is Active. The ESC Indicator Light in the 
instrument cluster will come on when the 
ignition is placed in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/
RUN position, and when ESC is activated. It should go out 
with the engine running. If the ESC Indicator Light comes 
on continuously with the engine running, a malfunction 
has been detected in the ESC system. If this warning light 
remains on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle 
has been driven several miles (kilometers) at speeds 
greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), see an authorized dealer 
as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and 
corrected. 
The ESC OFF Indicator Light and the ESC Indicator Light 
come on momentarily each time the ignition is placed 
in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN position.

when ESC becomes inactive.
 This light will come on when the vehicle is in an ESC 
event.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) OFF 
Warning Light — If Equipped 
This warning light indicates the ESC is off.
Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN or 
ACC/ON/RUN, the ESC system will be on, even 
if it was turned off previously.
Service LaneSense Warning Light — 
If Equipped
This warning light will illuminate when the 
LaneSense system is not operating and 
requires service. Please see an authorized 
dealer.
LaneSense Warning Light — If Equipped
The LaneSense system provides the driver with 
visual and steering torque warnings when the 
vehicle starts to drift out of its lane 
unintentionally without the use of a turn signal.
 When the LaneSense system senses a lane drift situa -
tion, the LaneSense indicator changes from solid green 
to solid yellow. 
When the LaneSense system senses the lane has been 
approached and is in a lane departure situation, the 
LaneSense indicator changes from solid white/green 
to flashing yellow  
Úpage 98.

AUTOPARK
AutoPark is a supplemental feature to assist with placing 
the vehicle in PARK should the situations on the following 
pages occur. It is a back up system and should not be 
relied upon as the primary method by which the driver 
shifts the vehicle into PARK.
The conditions under which AutoPark will engage are 
outlined on the following pages. If the vehicle is not in PARK and the driver turns off the 
engine, the vehicle may AutoPark.
AutoPark will engage when all of these conditions are met:
Vehicle is equipped with an 8-speed transmission
 Vehicle is not in PARK
 Vehicle speed is 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h) or less
 Ignition is switched from ON/RUN to ACCNOTE:For Keyless Enter ’n Go™ equipped vehicles, the engine 
will turn off and the ignition switch will change to ACC 
position. If the vehicle is not in PARK and the driver exits the vehicle 
with the engine running, the vehicle may AutoPark.
AutoPark will engage when all of these conditions are met:
Vehicle is equipped with an 8-speed transmission
 Vehicle is not in PARK
 Vehicle speed is 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h) or less
 Driver’s seat belt is unbuckled
 Driver’s door is ajar
 Brake pedal is not pressed
The message “ AutoPark Engaged Shift To P Then Shift To 
Gear ” will display in the instrument cluster.
NOTE:In some cases the ParkSense graphic will be displayed in 
the instrument cluster. In these cases, the gear selector 
must be returned to “P” to select desired gear.
If the driver shifts into PARK while moving, the vehicle may 
AutoPark.
AutoPark will engage  ONLY when vehicle speed is 1.2 mph 
(1.9 km/h) or less.
The message “ Vehicle Speed Is Too High To Shift to P ” will 
be displayed in the instrument cluster if vehicle speed is 
above 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h).
WARNING!
 Driver inattention could lead to failure to place the 
vehicle in PARK. ALWAYS DO A VISUAL CHECK that 
your vehicle is in PARK by verifying that a solid (not 
blinking) “P” is indicated in the instrument cluster 
display and on the gear selector. If the "P" indicator is 
blinking, your vehicle is not in PARK. As an added 
precaution, always apply the parking brake when 
exiting the vehicle.
 AutoPark is a supplemental feature. It is not 
designed to replace the need to shift your vehicle 
into PARK. It is a back up system and should not be 
relied upon as the primary method by which the 
driver shifts the vehicle into PARK.
WARNING!
If vehicle speed is above 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h), the 
transmission will default to NEUTRAL until the vehicle 
speed drops below 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h). A vehicle left in 
the NEUTRAL position can roll. As an added precaution, 
always apply the parking brake when exiting the vehicle.

“Normal Starting” procedure.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION (BELOW 
–22°F O
R −30°C) 
To ensure reliable starting at these temperatures, use of 
an externally powered electric engine block heater 
(available from an authorized dealer) is recommended.
AFTER STARTING
The idle speed is controlled automatically, and it will 
decrease as the engine warms up.
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the starter, do not crank 
continuously for more than 10 seconds at a time. Wait 
10 to 15 seconds before trying again.
WARNING!
 Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid into the 
throttle body air inlet opening in an attempt to start 
the vehicle. This could result in flash fire causing 
serious personal injury.
 Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it 
started. Vehicles equipped with an automatic trans -
mission cannot be started this way. Unburned fuel 
could enter the catalytic converter and once the 
engine has started, ignite and damage the converter 
and vehicle.
 If the vehicle has a discharged battery, booster 
cables may be used to obtain a start from a booster 
battery or the battery in another vehicle. This type of 
start can be dangerous if done improperly  
Úpage 213.
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the starter, do not continuously 
crank the engine for more than 10 seconds at a time. 
Wait 10 to 15 seconds before trying again.

80STARTING AND OPERATING  
(Continued)
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION  
You must press and hold the brake pedal while shifting out 
of PARK.
When exiting the vehicle, always make sure the 
keyless ignition node is in the OFF position, remove 
the key fob from the vehicle and lock the vehicle.
 Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle or in a 
location accessible to children, and do not leave the 
ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter ’n 
Go™ in the ACC or ON/RUN position. A child could 
operate power windows, other controls, or move the 
vehicle.
 Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged before 
driving; failure to do so can lead to brake failure and 
a collision.
 Always fully apply the parking brake when leaving 
your vehicle, or it may roll and cause damage or 
injury. Also be certain to leave the transmission in 
PARK. Failure to do so may allow the vehicle to roll 
and cause damage or injury.
CAUTION!
If the Brake Warning Light remains on with the parking 
brake released, a brake system malfunction is 
indicated. Have the brake system serviced by an 
authorized dealer immediately.
WARNING!
WARNING!
Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the 
parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully 
when exiting the vehicle to guard against vehicle 
movement and possible injury or damage.
 Your vehicle could move and injure you and others if 
it is not in PARK. Check by trying to move the trans -
mission gear selector out of PARK with the brake 
pedal released. Make sure the transmission is in 
PARK before exiting the vehicle.
 The transmission may not engage PARK if the vehicle 
is moving. Always bring the vehicle to a complete 
stop before shifting to PARK, and verify that the 
transmission gear position indicator solidly indicates 
PARK (P) without blinking. Ensure that the vehicle is 
completely stopped, and the PARK position is prop -
erly indicated, before exiting the vehicle.
 It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or NEUTRAL if the 
engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is 
not firmly pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle could 
accelerate quickly forward or in reverse. You could 
lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or some -
thing. Only shift into gear when the engine is idling 
normally and your foot is firmly pressing the brake 
pedal.
 Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure 
those in or near the vehicle. As with all vehicles, you 
should never exit a vehicle while the engine is 
running. Before exiting a vehicle, always come to a 
complete stop, then apply the parking brake, shift 
the transmission into PARK, and turn the ignition 
OFF. When the ignition is in the OFF position, the 
transmission is locked in PARK, securing the vehicle 
against unwanted movement.
 When exiting the vehicle, always make sure the igni -
tion is in the OFF position, remove the key fob from 
the vehicle, and lock the vehicle.
 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 seri -
ously or fatally injured. Children should be warned 
not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the 
transmission 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 ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN position. A child 
could operate power windows, other controls, or 
move the vehicle.
