mental and should be avoided. The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy conserving type lubricant. Oil changes should be consistent with anticipated climate conditions under which vehicle operations will occur. The recommended viscosity and quality grades are shown under “Engine Oil”, under “Maintenance Proce- dures” in section 7 of this manual. NON-DETERGENT OR STRAIGHT MINERAL OILS MUST NEVER BE USED. A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation. This should be considered as a normal part of the break-in and not interpreted as an indication of difficulty. SAFETY TIPS Transporting Passengers NEVER TRANSPORT PASSENGERS IN THE CARGO AREA. THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 73 WARNING! • It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seri- ously injured or killed. • Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts. • Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly. Lock Your Vehicle Always remove the key from the ignition and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended, even in your own driveway or garage. Try to park your vehicle in a well-lit area and never invite theft by leaving articles of value exposed. 74 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE Exhaust Gas WARNING! • Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you. To avoid breathing (CO), follow these safety tips: Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in confined areas any longer than needed to move your vehicle in or out of the area. If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with the engine running, adjust your heating or cooling controls to force outside air into the vehicle. Set the blower at high speed. If you are required to drive with the trunk open, make sure that all windows are closed, and the blower switch on the climate control is set at high speed. DO NOT use the recirculation mode. The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust system. Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of the exhaust system, when exhaust fumes can be detected inside the vehicle, or when the underside or rear of the vehicle is damaged, have a competent mechanic inspect the com- plete exhaust system and adjacent body areas for broken, damaged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts. Open seams or loose connections could permit exhaust fumes to seep into the passenger compartment. In addition, inspect the exhaust system each time the vehicle is raised for lubrication or oil change. Replace as required. Safety Checks You Should Make Inside the Vehicle Seat Belts Inspect the seat belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, and loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system. Front seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision. Rear seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision if they have been damaged (i.e., bent retractor, torn webbing, etc.). If there is any question regarding belt or retractor condition, replace the seat belt. Airbag Warning Light The light should come on and remain on for six to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first turned ON. If the light is not lit during starting, see your THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 75 authorized dealer. If the light stays on, flickers, or comes on while driving, have the system checked by an autho- rized dealer. Defroster Check operation by selecting the defrost mode and place the blower control on high speed. You should be able to feel the air directed against the windshield. See your authorized dealer is inoperable. Periodic Safety Checks You Should Make Outside the Vehicle for service if your defroster Tires Examine tires for excessive tread wear and uneven wear patterns. Check for stones, nails, glass, or other objects lodged in the tread. Inspect the tread and sidewall for cuts and cracks. Check the wheel nuts for tightness. Check the tires (including spare) for proper pressure. 76 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE Lights Have someone observe the operation of exterior lights while you work the controls. Check turn signal and high beam indicator lights on the instrument panel. Door Latches Check for positive closing, latching, and locking. Fluid Leaks Check area under vehicle after overnight parking for fuel, engine coolant, oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes are detected or if fuel, power steering fluid, or brake fluid leaks are suspected, the cause should be located and corrected immediately.

The convertible top does not provide the structural protection that a reinforced metal roof does and the fabric top cannot be expected to prevent the ejection of the occupants of a vehicle in a collision. Therefore, it is important that all occupants wear their seat belts at all times when riding in a convertible. Studies have shown that it is generally safer to remain inside a vehicle during a collision than to be ejected from the vehicle. You can lower or raise the power convertible top from inside the vehicle or lower the top remotely using the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. Either operation takes approximately 30 seconds. The entire process, in- cluding unlatching or latching the top at the windshield header is automatic. UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 81 The top does take up some space in the trunk when retracted. However, the trunk will still hold a significant amount of cargo. When operating the power convertible top, the trunk lid will pivot at the rear of the vehicle, swing open by the rear window, and then pivot backward. This allows room for the top to retract into or unfold from its stowage area in the trunk. When lowering the top, the system extends the hard tonneau cover, which stows conveniently underneath the trunk lid. The tonneau cover closes the area between the rear seats and the trunk lid to conceal the top when stowed. When raising the top, the system retracts the hard tonneau cover back into its stowage area underneath the trunk lid. 82 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE To complete either operation, the trunk lid returns to its normal position and then latches. Spring-loaded flipper doors, which provide clearance for the linkage, close off notches in the quarter trim panels when the top is up. Power Convertible Top Usage Precautions NOTE: • The convertible top will not operate unless the vehicle is stationary, the cargo shield is positioned correctly, and the trunk lid is closed and latched. In addition, the system prohibits lowering the top when ambient tem- perature is at 0°F (-18°C) or lower, However, the system allows you to raise the top at ambient tempera- tures as low as -40°F (-40°C). • The power top Control Module (PTCM) monitors and controls lowering and raising of the top. A series of engine running may run the battery down. micro-switches verify that operations are complete before allowing the next stage of lowering or raising operation. • Opening and closing the top consecutively without the • If a fluttering noise is heard from the rear seat belts while driving with the top down, safely bring the vehicle to a stop and buckle the rear seat belts over the empty seats. This will keep tension on the seat belts and remove the fluttering condition. CAUTION! • Correctly position the cargo shield in the trunk before stowing the top. Doing so closes a switch that allows top operation (stowing) to proceed. If the switch is not closed, a warning message dis- plays in the instrument cluster to notify the driver. (Continued) CAUTION! (Continued) • Always place items carefully into the trunk. • Do not push items too far into the trunk, particu- larly when the top is retracted into its stowage area in the trunk. • Do not use the area near the tonneau cover for storage. Failure to follow these cautions can cause damage to the convertible top components, trunk contents, and the vehicle interior. CAUTION! Before operating the power top: • Always check the tonneau cover area to be sure that it is clear of debris or other items. UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 83 CAUTION! (Continued) (-18°C). • Make sure the ambient temperature is above 0°F • Never attempt to lower a frozen convertible top. Wait until the top is thawed before lowering it into the stowage compartment. • Make sure the convertible top is dry before low- ering it into the stowage compartment. Lowering the top when damp, wet, or dirty can cause stains, mildew, and damage to the inside of your vehicle. • Make sure there is sufficient clearance of at least • To prevent striking a low ceiling or automatic door opener with the top, it is strongly recommended that you do not operate the power top inside a garage or parking structure. 7.5 ft.

CAUTION! pump valve open. • Do not operate the power top with the hydraulic • Do not allow the top to remain in the suspended position. After approximately 10 minutes in the suspended position, the hydraulic pressure will release, which will allow the top and the trunk lid to lower. Pressing the power top switch will cancel this operation. (Continued) CAUTION! (Continued) • Always use a normal ice scraper to remove snow or ice from the rear window. Use of a sharp object or other tools could scratch the fabric or panels when removing snow or ice. • Always close the top when leaving your vehicle so as not to leave the interior exposed to potentially damaging outdoor conditions. • Do not leave the top lowered for several weeks at a time. Close it occasionally to prevent discolora- tion in the folds of the fabric and to allow the creases to smooth out. This is especially important if the top was stowed when not completely dry. Failure to follow these cautions can cause damage to the convertible top components, trunk contents, and the vehicle interior. UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 85 WARNING! (Continued) • When using the power top switch on the instru- ment panel, if potential danger exists while raising the top, release the switch immediately to inter- rupt the operation. • Only drive the vehicle with the convertible top completely closed and latched or fully lowered into its stowage compartment. • Do not operate the power top when the vehicle is in motion. Failure to follow these warnings can result in injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your passengers, and others around you. WARNING! • Before operating the power top, make sure that no moving parts of the convertible top can injure a person or animal. • Never place any extremities (hands, feet, etc.) near the convertible top components, the upper wind- shield area, the shelf area behind the rear seats, or the convertible top stowage area while raising or lowering the convertible top. • When using the power top button on RKE trans- mitter, if potential danger exists while lowering the top, release the button immediately to inter- rupt the operation. • When using the power top switch on the instru- ment panel, if potential danger exists while low- ering the top, press and release the switch imme- diately to interrupt the operation. (Continued) 86 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE Cargo Shield The cargo shield is located in the trunk. Before lowering the convertible top, you must unfold the cargo shield and seat the tabs at each end of the cargo shield in the V slots in the trunk liner. Doing so closes a switch that allows top operation. If the switch is not closed, a warning message displays in the instrument cluster to notify the driver. Positioning the Cargo Shield for Top Operation Pull the cargo shield toward you to begin unfolding the panels. Grasp the handle in the center of the outermost (top) panel and raise the cargo shield. Then, align and seat the tabs at each end of the cargo shield in the V slots in the trunk liner as shown in the illustration. CAUTION! Do NOT place items on cargo protector. Items placed on cargo protector will interfere with the top during operation and cause excessive damage to the top. Cargo Shield Positioning the Cargo Shield for Cargo Storage To maximize the storage space in the trunk, the Cargo Shield can be stowed in the forward portion of the trunk. To stow the Cargo Shield, grasp the handle of the upright panel of the Cargo Shield, lifting the pins out of the V slots in the trunk trim. Continue folding the upright panel forward onto the horizontal panel, then grasp both panels and lift them to the forward, upright position in the trunk. Power Convertible Top Controls The power top switch is located on the instrument panel to the left of the steering column. UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 87 Stowed Cargo Shield Power Top Switch NOTE: The convertible top will NOT operate with the Cargo Shield in the stowed position. 88 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE There is also a power top button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter for remotely lowering the power convertible top.

UConnect威 features Bluetooth威 technology - the global standard that enables different electronic devices to con- nect to each other without wires or a docking station, so UConnect威 works no matter where you stow your cellu- lar phone (be it your purse, pocket, or briefcase), as long as your phone is turned on and has been paired to the vehicle’s UConnect威 system. The UConnect威 system allows up to seven cellular phones to be linked to the system. Only one linked (or paired) cellular phone can be used with the system at a time. The system is available in English, Spanish, or French languages. UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 103 Phone Button The rearview mirror contains the microphone for the system (depending on the type of mirror and radio equipped), and either the radio or the mirror has the two control buttons (PHONE Button and VOICE RECOGNITION button) that will enable you to access the system. Voice Recognition Button Actual button location may vary with the ra- dio. The individual buttons are described in the “Operation” section. The UConnect威 system can be used with any Hands-Free Profile certified Bluetooth威 cellular phone. See the UConnect威 website for supported phones. If your cellu- lar phone supports a different profile (e.g., Headset Profile) you may not be able to use any UConnect威 features. Refer to your cellular service provider or the phone manufacturer for details. 104 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE The UConnect威 system is fully integrated with the vehi- cle’s audio system. The volume of the UConnect威 system can be adjusted either from the radio volume control knob or from the steering wheel radio control (right switch), if so equipped. The radio display will be used for visual prompts from the UConnect威 system such as ⬙CELL⬙ or caller ID on certain radios. Operation Voice commands can be used to operate the UConnect威 system and to navigate through the UConnect威 menu structure. Voice commands are required after most UConnect威 system prompts. You will be prompted for a specific command and then guided through the available options. • Prior to giving a voice command, one must wait for the beep, which follows the ⬙Ready⬙ prompt or another prompt. • For certain operations, compound commands can be used. For example, instead of saying ⬙Setup⬙ and then ⬙Phone Pairing,⬙ the following compound command can be said: ⬙Setup Phone Pairing.⬙ • For each feature explanation in this section, only the combined form of the voice command is given. You can also break the commands into parts and say each part of the command when you are asked for it. For example, you can use the combined form voice com- mand ⬙Phonebook New Entry,⬙ or you can break the combined form command into two voice commands: ⬙Phonebook⬙ and ⬙New Entry.⬙ Please remember, the UConnect威 system works best when you talk in a normal conversational tone, as if speaking to someone sitting a few feet/meters away from you. Voice Command Tree Refer to “Voice Tree” in this section. Help Command If you need assistance at any prompt, or if you want to know your options at any prompt, say ⬙Help⬙ following the beep.
