SELECTABLE TIRE FILL ALERT — IF EQUIPPED
The Selectable Tire Fill Alert (STFA) system is an
optional feature that is included as part of the
normal Tire Fill Alert system. The system is
designed to allow you to select a pressure to inflate
or deflate the vehicle's front and rear axle tires to,
and to provide feedback while inflating or deflating
the vehicle's tires.
In the Selectable Tire Fill Alert application, which is
located in the apps menu of the Uconnect system,
you will be able to select a pressure setting for both
the front and rear axle tire pressures by scrolling
through a pressure range from XX to 15 psi in 1 psi
increments for each axle setting.
XX = the vehicle's cold placard pressure values for
the front and rear axles as shown on the vehicle
placard pressure label.
NOTE:The Tire Fill Alert feature disables every time the
ignition is placed in the OFF position. The feature
must be re-enabled through the radio each time
the ignition is placed back in the ON/RUN position
Úpage 215.
You may also store pressure values chosen for
each axle in the Uconnect system application as
preset pressure values. Up to two sets of preset
pressure values can be stored in the Uconnect
system for the front and rear axle. Once you select
the tire pressures for the front and rear axles that you want to inflate or deflate to, you can begin
inflating or deflating one tire at a time.
NOTE:The STFA system will only support inflating or
deflating one tire at a time.
In order to use STFA, the Tire Fill Alert feature must
be enabled through the radio Ú
page 215.
The system will be activated when the TPMS
receiver module detects a change in tire pressure.
The ignition must be in the ON/RUN mode, with the
transmission in PARK in vehicles with an automatic
transmission, and in NEUTRAL with the parking
brake engaged in vehicles with a manual
transmission. The hazard lamps will come on to
confirm the vehicle is in Tire Fill Alert mode.
When Tire Fill Alert mode is entered, the tire
pressure screen will be displayed in the instrument
cluster. If the hazard lamps do not come on while
inflating or deflating the tire, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor may be in an
inoperative position, preventing the TPMS sensor
signal from being received. In this case, the vehicle
may need to be moved slightly forward or
backward.
The STFA system will only inflate or deflate one tire
at a time. Wait until the hazard lights have stopped
flashing for 30 seconds after the desired pressure
is achieved on one tire before switching to another. Horn chirps will indicate STFA status as tires are
inflated/deflated. The horn will chirp under the
following STFA states:
1. The horn will chirp once when the selected
pressure is reached to let you know when to
stop inflating or deflating the tire.
2. The horn will chirp three times if the tire is overinflated or over-deflated.
3. The horn will chirp once again when enough air is added or removed to reach proper selected
pressure level.
TPMS DEACTIVATION — IF EQUIPPED
The TPMS can be deactivated if replacing all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with wheel
and tire assemblies that do not have TPMS
sensors, such as when installing winter wheel and
tire assemblies on your vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all four wheel
and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires not
equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS
will chime, the TPMS Warning Light will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and then remain on. The
instrument cluster will display the “SERVICE TIRE
PRESSURE SYSTEM” message and then display
dashes (--) in place of the pressure values.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICING — GASOLINE
ENGINE
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil
change indicator system. The oil change indicator
system will remind you that it is time to take your
vehicle in for scheduled maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil
change indicator message will illuminate. This
means that service is required for your vehicle.
Operating conditions such as frequent short-trips,
trailer tow, or extremely hot or cold ambient
temperatures will influence when the “Change Oil”
or “Oil Change Required” message is displayed.
Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible,
within the next 500 miles (805 km).
On vehicles equipped with an instrument cluster
display, “Oil Change Required” will be displayed
and a single chime will sound, indicating that an oil
change is necessary. On vehicles not equipped with an instrument
cluster display, “Change Oil” will flash in the
instrument cluster odometer and a single chime
will sound, indicating that an oil change is
necessary.
An authorized dealer will reset the oil change
indicator message after completing the scheduled
oil change. To reset the system follow the steps
described Ú
page 122.
NOTE:Under no circumstances should oil change
intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km),
12 months or 350 hours of engine run time,
whichever comes first. The 350 hours of engine
run or idle time is generally only a concern for fleet
customers. Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
Check engine oil level.
Check windshield washer fluid level.
Check the tire pressures and look for unusual
wear or damage, rotate at the first sign of irreg
-
ular wear.
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir,
brake master cylinder, and power steering, and
fill as needed.
Check function of all interior and exterior lights.

Engine Oil Filter Replacement
Residual oil in the housing may spill from the
housing when the new filter is installed if the
residual oil is not either removed from the housing
or enough time has not elapsed to allow the oil to
drain back into the engine. When servicing the oil
filter on this engine, open the filter cap
approximately six turns until the cap o-ring is
visible and stop. Wait five minutes with the cap in
this position to allow dirty engine oil to drain back
into the engine. After five minutes, the cap and
filter assembly can be removed and discarded. Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:Check engine oil level
Check windshield washer fluid level
Check the tire pressures and look for unusual
wear or damage
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir,
brake master cylinder, and fill as needed
Check function of all interior and exterior lights

Fluid Level Check
The fluid level is preset at the factory and does not
require adjustment under normal operating
conditions. Routine fluid level checks are not
required; therefore the transmission has no
dipstick. An authorized dealer can check your
transmission fluid level using special service tools.
If you notice fluid leakage or transmission
malfunction, visit an authorized dealer
immediately to have the transmission fluid level
checked. Operating the vehicle with an improper
fluid level can cause severe transmission damage.
Fluid And Filter Changes
Under normal operating conditions, the fluid
installed at the factory will provide satisfactory
lubrication for the life of the vehicle.Routine fluid and filter changes are not required.
However, change the fluid and filter if the fluid
becomes contaminated (with water, etc.), or if the
transmission is disassembled for any reason.
Selection Of Lubricant
It is important to use the proper transmission fluid
to ensure optimum transmission performance and
life. Use only manufacturer's specified
transmission fluid Ú
page 426. It is important to
maintain the transmission fluid at the correct level
using the recommended fluid.
NOTE:No chemical flushes should be used in any trans -
mission; only the approved lubricant should be
used.
FUSES
General Information
CAUTION!
If a transmission fluid leak occurs, visit an
authorized dealer immediately. Severe transmis -
sion damage may occur. An authorized dealer
has the proper tools to adjust the fluid level
accurately.
CAUTION!
Using a transmission fluid other than
manufacturer’s recommended fluid may cause
deterioration in transmission shift quality and/or
torque converter shudder Ú page 426.
WARNING!
When replacing a blown fuse, always use an
appropriate replacement fuse with the same
amp rating as the original fuse. Never replace
a fuse with another fuse of higher amp rating.
The use of a fuse with a rating other than indi -
cated may result in a dangerous electrical
system overload. If a properly rated fuse
continues to blow, it indicates a problem in the
circuit that must be corrected. Never replace a
blown fuse with metal wires or any other mate -
rial. Failure to use proper fuses may result in
serious personal injury, fire and/or property
damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the
ignition is off and that all the other services
are switched off and/or disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an
authorized dealer.
