Note:The left-hand and right-hand mirrorsmove at different rates. For example, onemirror may stop when the other onecontinues to move. This is normal. Movingthe mirrors 10 or more times within oneminute, or repeated folding and unfoldingof the mirrors when holding the controldown during full travel, may disable thesystem to protect the motors fromoverheating. Wait approximately threeminutes with your vehicle running, and upto 10 minutes with your vehicle off, for thesystem to reset and operate as normal.
Loose Mirror
If the power-folding mirrors are manuallyfolded, they may not properly work evenafter you re-position them. You need toreset them if:
•The mirrors vibrate when you drive.

Programming the Garage DoorOpener to your Gate Opener Motor
Gate Operator / CanadianProgramming
Canadian radio-frequency laws requiretransmitter signals to time-out (or quit)after several seconds of transmission –which may not be long enough forHomeLink to pick up the signal duringprogramming. Similar to this Canadian law,some U.S. gate operators are designed totime-out in the same manner.
Note:If programming a garage door openeror gate operator, it is advised that youunplug the device during the cycling processto prevent possible overheating.
1.Press and release your handheldtransmitter,every two seconds, untilthe HomeLink indicator flashes rapidlyor is continuously on.
2.Release the handheld transmitterbutton.
3.Press and hold the HomeLink functionbutton you want to program for twoseconds, then release. You may needto do this twice to activate the door.
Note:If the indicator stays on, theprogramming is complete.
Note:If the HomeLink indicator flashesrapidly, repeat Step 3.
4.To program additional buttons, repeatSteps 1–4.

HOW DOES ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
WORK
The all-wheel drive system is designed tocontinuously monitor and adjust powerdelivery to the front and rear wheels tooptimize both traction and handling.
There is further information on driving inunique driving conditions. See DrivingHints (page 301).
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not becomeoverconfident in the ability of all-wheeldrive vehicles. Although an all-wheeldrive vehicle may accelerate better thana two-wheel drive vehicle in low tractionsituations, it won't stop any faster thantwo-wheel drive vehicles. Always driveat a safe speed.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
LIMITATIONS
The all-wheel drive system is not intendedfor use with mismatched tires.
Different tire sizes between the front andrear axles can cause system damage.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
ELECTRIC POWER STEERINGPRECAUTIONS
WARNING: The electric powersteering system has diagnostic checksthat continuously monitor the system. Ifa fault is detected, a message displaysin the information display. Stop yourvehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.Switch the vehicle off. After at least 10seconds, switch the vehicle on andwatch the information display for asteering system warning message. If asteering system warning messagereturns, have the system checked assoon as possible.
WARNING: If the system detectsan error, you may not feel a difference inthe steering, however a serious conditionmay exist. Have your vehicle checked assoon as possible. Failure to do so mayresult in loss of steering control.
Adapt your speed and driving behavioraccording to reduced steering assist.
Extreme continuous steering may increasethe effort to steer. This occurs to preventinternal overheating and damage to thesteering system. If this occurs, you will notlose the ability to steer your vehiclemanually nor will it cause damage to thesystem. Normal steering and driving allowsthe system to cool down and steeringassist returns to normal.
Note:There is no fluid reservoir to check orfill.
ELECTRIC POWER STEERINGADAPTIVE STEERING
Adaptive Learning (If Equipped)
Adaptive learning helps correct roadirregularities and improves overall handlingand steering. It communicates with thebrake system to help operate advancedstability control and crash avoidancesystems.
Note:When the battery is disconnected ora new battery is installed, you must driveyour vehicle a short distance before thesystem relearns the strategy and reactivatesall systems.
Steering Tips
If the steering wanders or pulls, check for:
•An improperly inflated tire.
•Uneven tire wear.
•Loose or worn suspensioncomponents.
•Improper vehicle alignment.
Note:A high crown in the road or highcrosswinds could also make the steeringwander or pull.

Note:If prediluted coolant is not available,use the approved concentrated coolantdiluting it to 50/50 with distilled water. SeeCooling System Capacity andSpecification (page 366). Using water thathas not been deionized could contribute todeposit formation, corrosion and pluggingof the small cooling system passageways.
Note:Coolants marketed for all makes andmodels might not meet our specificationsand could cause damage to the coolingsystem. Resulting component damagecould void the vehicle warranty.
If the coolant level is at or below theminimum mark, add prediluted coolantimmediately.
To top up the coolant level do thefollowing:
1.Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressureescapes as you unscrew the cap.
2.Add prediluted coolant approved tothe correct specification. See CoolingSystem Capacity and Specification(page 366).
3.Add enough prediluted coolant toreach the correct level.
4.Replace the coolant reservoir cap. Turnthe cap clockwise until it contacts thehard stop.
5.Check the coolant level in the coolantreservoir the next few times you driveyour vehicle. If necessary, add enoughprediluted coolant to bring the coolantlevel to the correct level.
If you have to add more than 1.1 qt (1 L) ofcoolant per month, have your vehiclechecked as soon as possible. Operatingyour vehicle with a low level of coolant canresult in overheating and possible electricmotor damage.
In case of emergency, you can add a largeamount of water without coolant in orderto reach a vehicle service location. In thisinstance, have qualified personnel do thefollowing as soon as possible:
1.Drain the cooling system.
2.Chemically clean the coolant system.
3.Refill with coolant.
Water alone, without coolant, can causedamage from corrosion, overheating orfreezing.
Do not use the following as a coolantsubstitute:
•Alcohol.
•Methanol.
•Brine.
•Any coolant mixed with alcohol ormethanol antifreeze.
Alcohol and other liquids can causedamage from overheating or freezing.
Do not add extra inhibitors or additives tothe coolant. These can be harmful andcompromise the corrosion protection ofthe coolant.
Recycled Coolant
We do not recommend the use of recycledcoolant, as an approved recycling processis not yet available.
Dispose of used coolant in an appropriatemanner. Follow your community'sregulations and standards for recycling anddisposing of automotive fluids.

USING THE TIRE SEALANT
AND INFLATOR KIT
Tips for use of the kit
To make sure the kit operates safely andproperly, observe the following:
•Before operating the kit, make sureyour vehicle is safely off the road andaway from moving traffic.
•Do not remove any foreign objects,such as nails or screws, from the tire.
•Do not allow the compressor tooperate continuously for more than 15minutes. This prevents the compressorfrom overheating.
•Only use the kit when the ambienttemperature is between -22°F (-30°C)and 158°F (70°C).
•Only use the sealing compound beforethe use-by date. The use-by date is ona label on the sealant canister and canbe seen through the rectangularviewing window on the bottom of thecompressor. Check the use-by dateregularly and replace the canister whenthe sealant expires.
Note:Sealant compound contains latex.Use appropriate precautions to avoid anyallergic reactions.
Place the selector in the Airposition when inflating a tire orother objects.
What to do when a tire is punctured
A tire puncture within the tire's tread areacan be repaired in two stages with the kit.
•In the first stage, the tire is reinflatedwith a sealing compound and air. Afterthe tire has been inflated, drive thevehicle a short distance approximately4 mi (6 km) to distribute the sealant inthe tire.
•In the second stage, check the tirepressure and adjust, if necessary, to thevehicle's specified tire inflationpressure.
First Stage: Reinflating the Tirewith sealing compound and air
WARNING: Do not stand directlyover the kit while inflating the tire. If younotice any unusual bulges ordeformations in the tire's sidewall duringinflation, stop and call roadsideassistance.
WARNING: If the tire does notinflate to the recommended tire pressurewithin 15 minutes, stop and call roadsideassistance.
Park the vehicle in a safe, level and securearea, away from moving traffic.
Turn the hazard lights on. Apply the parkingbrake and power off the vehicle. Inspectthe flat tire for visible damage.
If a puncture is located in the tire sidewall,stop and call roadside assistance.
1.Remove the valve cap from the tirevalve.
2.Unwrap the dual purpose hose (blacktube) from the back of the compressorhousing.
