Downshifting Proper downshifting will improve fuel economy and prolong engine life. CAUTION! If you skip more than one gear while downshifting or downshift at too high a vehicle speed, you could damage the engine, transmission, or clutch. T o maintain a safe speed and prolong brake life, shift down to second or first gear when descending a steep gr[...]

W ARNING! It is dangerous to move the shift lever out of P ARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle speed.

vehicle may be somewhat abrupt. This is a normal condition, and pr ecision shifts will develop within a few hundred miles (kilometers). Shifting from DRIVE to P ARK or REVERSE should be done only after the accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle is stopped. Be sure to keep your foot on the brake pedal when moving the shift lever between these[...]

Never attempt to use P ARK while the vehicle is in motion. Apply the parking brake when leaving vehicle in this range. When parking on a level surface, you may place the shift lever in the P ARK position first, and then apply the parking brake. When parking on a hill, apply the parking brake before placing the shift lever in P ARK, otherwise the lo[...]

CAUTION! • Before moving the shift lever out of P ARK, you must turn the ignition switch from the LOCK/OFF position to the ON/RUN position, and also press the brake pedal. Otherwise, damage to the shift lever could result. • DO NOT race the engine when shifting from P ARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range, as this can damage the drivetrain. Th[...]

CAUTION! T owing the vehicle, coasting, or driving for any other reason with the transmission in NEUTRAL can result in severe transmission damage.

Operation When the shift lever is in the AutoStick 威 position (to the left of the Drive position), it can be moved forward and rearwar d. This allows the driver to manually select the transmission gear being used. Moving the shift lever forward (-) triggers a downshift, and moving it rearwar d (+) an upshift. The gear position will display in the[...]

• If a downshift would cause the engine to over-speed, that shift will not occur until it is safe for the engine. An audible beep will sound if an inappropriate gear is selected. • The transmission will automatically upshift when nec- essary to prevent engine over-speed. • Mostly the transmission will stay in the manually selected ratio, howe[...]

T raction When driving on wet or slushy roads, it is possible for a wedge of water to build up between the tire and road surface. This is known as hydroplaning and may cause partial or complete loss of vehicle control and stopping ability . T o reduce this possibility , the following precau- tions should be observed: 1. Slow down during rainstorms [...]

Shallow Standing Water Although your vehicle is capable of driving through shallow standing water , consider the following Caution and W arning before doing so. CAUTION! • Always check the depth of the standing water before driving through it. Never drive through standing water that is deeper than the bottom of the tire rims mounted on the vehicl[...]

W ARNING! • Driving through standing water limits your vehi- cle’ s traction capabilities. Do not exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) when driving through standing water . • Driving through standing water limits your vehi- cle’ s braking capabilities, which increases stop- ping distances. Therefore, after driving through standing water , drive slowly and[...]

W ARNING! Continued operation with reduced or no power steer- ing assist could pose a safety risk to yourself and others. Service should be obtained as soon as pos- sible.

W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them. TIRES — GENERAL INFORMA TION Tire Pressure Proper tire inflation pressur e is essential to the safe and satisfactory o[...]

W ARNING! (Continued) • Unequal tire pressures from one side of the ve- hicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to the right or left. • Always drive with each tire inflated to the recom- mended cold tire inflation pressure. Economy Improper inflation pressur es can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tire tread. These abn[...]

Inflation pressures specified on the placard are always cold tire inflation pressur e. Cold tire inflation pr essure is defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least thr ee hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a three hour period. The cold tire inflation pressur e must not exceed the maximum inflation p[...]

W ARNING! High speed driving with your vehicle under maxi- mum load is dangerous. The added strain on your tires could cause them to fail. Y ou could have a serious accident. Do not drive a vehicle loaded to the maximum capacity at continuous speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h). Radial-Ply Tires W ARNING! Combining radial-ply tires with other types of t[...]

W ARNING! (Continued) • T emporary use spare tires have limited tread life. When the tread is worn to the tread wear indica- tors, the temporary use spare tire needs to be replaced. • Be sure to follow the warnings which apply to your spare. Failure to do so could result in spare tire failure and loss of vehicle control. Do not install a wheel [...]

W ARNING! Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces gener- ated by excessive wheel speeds may cause tire dam- age or failure. A tire could explode and injure some- one. Do not spin your vehicle’s wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) or for more than 30 seconds continuously when you are stuck, and do not let anyone near a spinning wheel, no matt[...]

Life Of Tire The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including, but not limited to: • Driving style • T ire pressure • Distance driven W ARNING! T ires and the spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure. Y ou could lose[...]

W ARNING! • Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combinations of unapproved tires and wheels may change sus- pension dimensions and performance characteris- tics, resulting in changes to steering, handling, and braking of your vehicle. This can cause unpredict- able handling and stress to steeri[...]

CAUTION! T o avoid damage to your vehicle or tires, observe the following precautions: • Use Security Chain Company (SCC) SCC Z6 low profile or equivalent chains on 185/55R15 tires only . • Because of restricted chain clearance between tires and other suspension components, it is important that only chains in good condition are used.

TIRE ROT A TION RECOMMENDA TIONS The tires on the fr ont and rear of your vehicle operate at differ ent loads and perform differ ent steering, driving, and braking functions. For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates and tend to develop irregular wear pat- terns. These effects can be reduced by timely rotation of tires. The benefits of rotation[...]

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) The T ire Pressur e Monitor System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tir e pressur e based on the vehicle recom- mended cold tire pressure. The tire pressur e will vary with temperature by about 1 psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12° F (6.5° C). This means that when the outside temperature decreases, the tire pres[...]

For example, your vehicle may have a recommended cold (parked for more than three hours) tire pressure of 30 psi (207 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68° F (20° C) and the measured tire pressur e is 27 psi (186 kPa), a temperature drop to 20° F (-7° C) will decrease the tire pressur e to approximately 26 psi (179 kPa). This tire pressur e i[...]

NOTE: • The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tire care and maintenance, or to provide warning of a tire failure or condition. • The TPMS should not be used as a tire pressure gauge while adjusting your tire pressur e. • Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failur e.
