ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL When engaged, this device takes over the accelerator operation at speeds greater than 25 mph (40 km/h). Electronic Speed Control Operation The speed control lever (located on the left side of the steering column) operates the system.

1 — RESUME/ACCEL 2 — SET/DECEL 3 — CANCEL 4 — ON/OFF

110 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

To Activate:

Push the speed control lever inward (toward the steering column) and release (“ON/OFF”). The indicator light in the lever (and in the instrument cluster on some models) will illu- minate to show that the speed control system is ON. To turn the system OFF, push the lever inward (toward the steering column) again and release. At this time, the system and the indicator light will turn off.

WARNING!

Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. You could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose control and have an accident. Always leave the system OFF when you aren’t using it.

To Set At A Desired Speed: When the vehicle reaches the speed desired, push the lever down and release (“SET/DECEL”). Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal and the vehicle will operate at the selected speed.

NOTE: • Speed control will only function in third, fourth, or fifth gear when in the Autostick威 Mode (if equipped). • The speed control may not engage if a different size tire is installed on one wheel, such as the compact spare tire.

To Deactivate: The system will disable Electronic Speed Control without erasing the memory if you: • Softly tap the brake pedal. • Depress the brake pedal. • Push the speed control lever away from you (“CAN-

CEL”).

Pushing and releasing the lever (“ON/OFF”) or turning off the ignition erases the set speed from memory. To Resume Speed: If you deactivated the speed control without erasing the set speed from memory and your vehicle speed is above 20 mph (32 km/h) you can resume the previous set

speed. To do so, push the lever up and release (RES/ ACCEL), and then remove your foot from the accelerator pedal. To Vary the Speed Setting: When the speed control is set, you can increase speed by pushing the lever up and holding (“RES/ACCEL”). When the lever is released, a new set speed will be established. Pushing the lever up and releasing (“RES/ACCEL”) once will result in a 1 mph (1.6 km/h) speed increase. Each time the lever is pushed up and released, speed increases so that pushing the lever up and releasing three times will increase speed by 3 mph (4.8 km/h), etc. To decrease speed while speed control is set, push the lever down and hold (“SET/DECEL”). Release the lever when the desired speed is reached, and a new set speed will be established. Pushing down and releasing the lever (“SET/DECEL”) once will result in a 1 mph (1.6 km/h) speed decrease. Each time the lever is pushed down and released, speed decreases.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 111

To Accelerate For Passing: Depress the accelerator as you would normally. When the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed. NOTE: The speed control system maintains speed up and down hills. A slight speed change on moderate hills is normal. Four speed automatic transmissions will experience a downshift to 3rd gear while climbing uphill or descend- ing downhill. This downshift to 3rd gear is necessary to maintain vehicle set speed. On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain may occur so it may be preferable to drive without speed control.

WARNING!

Speed Control can be dangerous where the system can’t maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose control. An accident could be the result. Don’t use Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered, or slippery.

WARNING!

• Drivers must be careful when backing up even when using the Rear Park Assist System. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots be- fore backing up. You are responsible for safety and must continue to pay attention to your sur- roundings. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death. • Before using the Rear Park Assist System, it is strongly recommended that the ball mount and hitch ball assembly is disconnected from the vehicle when the vehicle is not used for towing. Failure to do so can result in injury or damage to vehicles or obstacles because the hitch ball will be much closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia when the warning display turns the red LEDs ON. Also, the sensors could detect the ball mount and hitch ball assembly, depending on its size and shape, giving a false indication that an obstacle is behind the vehicle.

CAUTION!

• The Rear Park Assist System is only a parking aid and it is unable to recognize every obstacle, in- cluding small obstacles. Parking curbs might be temporarily detected or not detected at all. Ob- stacles located above or below the sensors will not be detected when they are in close proximity. • The vehicle must be driven slowly when using the Rear Park Assist System to be able to stop in time when the obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the driver looks over his/her shoulder when using the Rear Park Assist System.

NOTE: • Ensure that the rear bumper is free of dirt and debris • Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could

Power Sunroof Controls

122 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING!

• Never leave children in a vehicle, with the keys in the ignition switch. Occupants, particularly unat- tended children, can become entrapped by the power sunroof while operating the power sunroof switch. Such entrapment may result in serious injury or death. • In an accident, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof. You could also be seriously injured or killed. Always fasten your seat belt properly and make sure all passengers are properly secured too. • Do not allow small children to operate the sun- roof. Never allow fingers or other body parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury may result.

Opening Sunroof - Express Press the switch rearward and release, and the sunroof will open automatically from any position. The sunroof will open fully and then stop automatically. This is called Express Open. During Express Open operation, any movement of the sunroof switch will stop the sunroof. Closing Sunroof - Express Press the switch forward and release, and the sunroof will close automatically from any position. The sunroof will close fully and stop automatically. This is called Express Close. During Express Close operation, any movement of the switch will stop the sunroof. Pinch Protect Feature This feature will detect an obstruction in the opening of the sunroof during Express Close operation. If an ob- struction in the path of the sunroof is detected, the sunroof will automatically retract. Remove the obstruc- tion if this occurs. Next, press the switch forward and release to Express Close.

Pinch Protect Override If a known obstruction (ice, debris, etc.) prevents closing, press the switch forward and hold for two seconds after the reversal occurs. This allows the sunroof to move towards the closed position. NOTE: Pinch protection is disabled while the switch is pressed. Venting Sunroof - Express Press and release the ⬙V⬙ button, and the sunroof will open to the vent position. This is called Express Vent, which operates regardless of sunroof position. During Express Vent operation, any movement of the switch will stop the sunroof. Sunshade Operation The sunshade can be opened manually. However, the sunshade will open automatically as the sunroof opens. NOTE: The sunshade cannot be closed if the sunroof is open.

Wind Buffeting Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressure on the ears or a helicopter type sound in the ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur- rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear windows open, then open the front and rear windows together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, then adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting or open any window. Sunroof Maintenance Use only a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean the glass panel. Ignition Off Operation The power sunroof switch will remain active for up to 60
minutes after the ignition switch is turned off. Opening either front door will cancel this feature. The time for this feature is programmable. For details, refer to “Delay Power Off to Accessories Until Exit,” under “Personal

If desired, the power outlet next to the ash NOTE: receiver tray (if equipped) can be converted by your authorized dealer to provide power with the ignition switch in the LOCK position.

Settings (Customer Programmable Features),” under “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in Sec- tion 4 of this manual. Sunroof Fully Closed Press the switch forward and release to ensure that the sunroof is fully closed.

ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLETS There are two 12-volt electrical outlets on this vehicle. Both of the outlets are protected by a fuse. The 12-volt power outlet next to the ash receiver tray (if equipped with an optional Smoker’s Package) has power available only when the ignition is on. This outlet will also operate a conventional cigar lighter unit.

WARNING!

Front Power Outlet

Do not place ashes inside the cubby bin located on the center console on vehicles not equipped with the ash receiver tray. A fire leading to bodily injury could result.

The center console outlet is powered directly from the battery (power available at all times). Items plugged into this outlet may discharge the battery and/or prevent engine starting.

Center Console Power Outlet

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 125

Electrical Outlet Use With Engine Off

CAUTION!

• Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e. cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life and/or prevent engine starting. • Accessories that draw higher power (i.e. coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.); will degrade the battery even more quickly. Only use these inter- mittently and with greater caution. • After the use of high power draw accessories, or long periods of the vehicle not being started (with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a sufficient length of time to allow the alternator to recharge the vehicle’s battery. • Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not hang any type of accessory or acces- sory bracket from the plug. Improper use of the power outlet can cause damage not covered by your warranty.

STORAGE

Console Features The center console contains a large storage bin. The storage bin contains a four-slot coin holder (designed to hold various size coins) and a rubber mat at the bottom of the bin for noise control. The bin is large enough to hold a portable AC/DC converter to power laptops, games, or other electrical equipment. Two slots at the top right side of the bin provide clearance for power cords to pass conveniently out of the bin with the lid closed. This feature is ideal for games, laptops, cell phones, or other electrical equipment. The console’s front-opening lid allows for easy access to the storage bin for the both the driver and the front passenger. The inside portion of the arm rest lid contains a penholder, a tissue holder, and a tire gauge holder.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 127

In addition to the internal storage, the console contains two shift bezel cubby bins with rubber mats for holding small items. For vehicles not equipped with navigation radio, the console also contains an extra storage bin located below the climate control, which holds up to four CD jewel cases. Cargo Area The 60/40 split-folding rear seat provides cargo-carrying versatility. The seatbacks fold down easily by pulling nylon tabs between the seatbacks and the bolsters. When the seats are folded down, they provide a continuous, nearly flat extension of the load floor. When the seatback is folded to the upright position, make sure it is latched by strongly pulling on the top of the seatback above the seat strap.

128 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING!

• Be certain that the seatback is securely locked into position. If the seatback in not securely locked into position, the seat will not provide the proper stability for child seats and/or passengers. An improperly latched seat could cause serious in- jury. • The cargo area in the rear of the vehicle (with the rear seatbacks in the locked-up or folded down position) should not be used as a play area by children when the vehicle is in motion. They could be seriously injured in an accident. Chil- dren should be seated and using the proper re- straint system. • To help protect against personal injury, passen- gers should not be seated in the rear cargo area. The rear cargo space is intended for load carrying purposes only, not for passengers, who should sit in seats and use seat belts.

WARNING!

• The weight and position of cargo and passengers can change the vehicle center of gravity and vehicle handling. To avoid loss of control result- ing in personal injury, follow these guidelines for loading your vehicle:

• Always place cargo evenly on the cargo floor. Put heavier objects as low and as far forward as possible. • Place as much cargo as possible in front of the rear axle. Too much weight or improperly placed weight over or behind the rear axle can cause the rear of the vehicle to sway. • Do not pile luggage or cargo higher than the top of the seatback. This could impair visibility or become a dangerous projectile in a sudden stop or collision.

LOAD LEVELING SYSTEM The automatic load leveling system will provide a level- riding vehicle under most passenger and cargo loading conditions. A hydraulic pump contained within the shock absorbers raises the rear of the vehicle to the correct height. It takes approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) of driving for the leveling to complete depending on road surface conditions.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 129

If the leveled vehicle is not moved for approximately 15
hours, the leveling system will bleed itself down. The vehicle must be driven to reset the system.
