SUGGESTIONS FOR OBTAINING SERVICE FOR YOUR VEHICLE


Prepare For The Appointment If you’re having warranty work done, be sure to have the right papers with you. Take your warranty folder. All work to be performed may not be covered by the warranty. Discuss additional charges with the service manager. Keep a maintenance log of your vehicle’s service history. This can often provide a clue to the current problem. Prepare A List Make a written list of your vehicle’s problems or the specific work you want done. If you’ve had an accident or work done that is not on your maintenance log, let the service advisor know. Be Reasonable With Requests If you list a number of items and you must have your vehicle by the end of the day, discuss the situation with


IF YOU NEED CONSUMER ASSISTANCE 503


the service advisor and list the items in order of priority. At many authorized dealers, you may obtain a rental vehicle at a minimal daily charge. If you need a rental, it is advisable to make these arrangements when you call for an appointment.


IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE The manufacturer and its authorized dealers are vitally interested in your satisfaction. We want you to be happy with our products and services. Warranty service must be done by an authorized dealer. We strongly recommend that you take the vehicle to an authorized dealer. They know you and the vehicle best, and are most concerned that you get prompt and high quality service. The manufacturer’s authorized dealers have the facilities, factory-trained technicians, special tools, and the latest information to ensure the vehicle is fixed correctly and in a timely manner.


504 IF YOU NEED CONSUMER ASSISTANCE


This is why you should always talk to an authorized dealer’s service manager first. Most matters can be re- solved with this process. • If for some reason you are still not satisfied, talk to the general manager or owner of the authorized dealer- ship. They want to know if you need assistance. • If an authorized dealership is unable to resolve the concern, you may contact the manufacturer’s customer center.


Any communication to the manufacturer’s customer cen- ter should include the following information: • Owner’s name and address • Owner’s telephone number (home and office) • Authorized dealership name • Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADES The following tire grading categories were established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The specific grade rating assigned by the tire’s manufacturer in each category is shown on the sidewall of the tires on your vehicle. All passenger car tires must conform to Federal safety requirements in addition to these grades. Treadwear The Treadwear grade is a comparative rating, based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart


IF YOU NEED CONSUMER ASSISTANCE 509


significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices, and differences in road charac- teristics and climate. Traction Grades The Traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. These grades represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement, as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction perfor- mance.


WARNING!


The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead braking traction tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.


510 IF YOU NEED CONSUMER ASSISTANCE


Temperature Grades The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat, when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance, which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A repre- sent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel, than the minimum required by law.


WARNING!


The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, under-inflation, or excessive load- ing, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.

INSTALLATION OF RADIO TRANSMITTING EQUIPMENT Special design considerations are incorporated into this vehicle’s electronic system to provide immunity to radio frequency signals. Mobile two-way radios and telephone equipment must be installed properly by trained person- nel. The following must be observed during installation. The positive power connection should be made directly to the battery and fused as close to the battery as possible. The negative power connection should be made to body sheet metal adjacent to the negative battery connection. This connection should not be fused. Antennas for two-way radios should be mounted on the roof or the rear area of the vehicle. Care should be used in mounting antennas with magnet bases. Magnets may affect the accuracy or operation of the compass on vehicles so equipped.


The antenna cable should be as short as practical and routed away from the vehicle wiring when possible. Use only fully shielded coaxial cable. Carefully match the antenna and cable to the radio to ensure a low Standing Wave Ratio (SWR). Mobile radio equipment with output power greater than normal may require special precautions. All installations should be checked for possible interfer- ence between the communications equipment and the vehicle’s electronic systems.

12 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE


A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. This system consists of a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter with integrated ignition key and a Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) with integral ignition switch. You can insert the double-sided key into the ignition switch with either side up. Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) The Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) operates similarly to an ignition switch. It has four operating positions, three with detents and one that is spring-loaded. The detent positions are OFF, ACC, and ON. The START position is a spring-loaded momentary contact position. When re- leased from the START position, the switch automatically returns to the ON position.


WIN Ignition Positions


1 – OFF 2 – ACC (ACCESSORY)


3 – ON 4 – START


Integrated Ignition Key The integrated ignition key operates the ignition switch. It also contains the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) trans- mitter and a Valet Key, which stores in the rear of the RKE transmitter. The Valet Key allows for entry into the vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or the RKE transmitter go dead. The Valet Key is also for locking the glove box. You can keep the Valet Key with you when valet parking. To remove the Valet Key from the RKE transmitter, slide the mechanical latch at the top of the RKE transmitter sideways with your thumb and then pull the key out with your other hand.


THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 13


Valet Key Removal


NOTE: You can insert the double-sided Valet Key into the lock cylinder with either side up.


14 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE


Tip Start Feature 1. Do not press the accelerator pedal during this process. 2. Insert the integrated ignition key into the ignition switch. 3. Turn the ignition switch to the START position and release it as soon as the starter engages. The starter motor will continue to run and will disengage automatically when the engine begins running. Ignition Key Removal Place the shift lever in PARK. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position and then remove the key. NOTE: Power window switches will also remain active for up to 90 seconds after the ignition switch has been turned OFF, depending upon the accessory delay setting. Opening the front door will cancel this feature.


WARNING!


NEVER leave children alone in a vehicle. Leaving unattended children in a vehicle is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others could be seri- ously or fatally injured. Don’t leave the key in the ignition. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle


CAUTION!


An unlocked car is an invitation to thieves. Always remove the key from the ignition and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.


Key-In-Ignition Reminder If you open the driver’s door with the integrated ignition key in the ignition, a chime will sound to remind you to remove the key. The Key-In-Ignition reminder only sounds NOTE: when the integrated ignition key is placed in the OFF or ACC position.


SENTRY KEY姞 IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM The Sentry Key威 Immobilizer system prevents unautho- rized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The system does not need to be armed or activated. Operation is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked. The system uses the factory-mated Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter with integrated key and Wireless Igni- tion Node (WIN) to prevent unauthorized vehicle opera- tion. Therefore, only RKE transmitters that are pro- grammed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate


THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 15


the vehicle. The system will shut the engine off in two seconds if an invalid RKE transmitter is used to start the engine. After turning the ignition switch to the ON position, the Vehicle Security Light will turn on for three seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem with the electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after the bulb check, it indicates that someone used an invalid RKE transmitter to start the engine. Either of these conditions will result in the engine being shut off after two seconds. If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10 sec- onds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible.


16 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE


NOTE: • The Sentry Key威 Immobilizer system is not compatible with aftermarket remote starting systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and loss of security protection. • Exxon/Mobil Speedpass™, additional RKE transmit- ters, or any other transponder-equipped components on the same key chain will not cause a fault unless the additional part is physically held against the RKE transmitter being used to start the vehicle. Cell phones, pagers, or other Radio Frequency (RF) elec- tronics will not cause interference with this system.


All of the RKE transmitters provided with your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle electronics. Replacement Keys


NOTE: Only RKE transmitters that are programmed to the vehicle electronics can be used to start and operate


the vehicle. Once an RKE transmitter is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be reprogrammed to any other vehicle.


CAUTION!


Always remove the keys from the vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.


At the time of purchase, the original owner is provided with a four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN). Keep the PIN in a secure location. This number is required for authorized dealer replacement of RKE trans- mitters. Duplication of RKE transmitters may be per- formed at an authorized dealer or by using the Customer Key Programming procedure. This procedure consists of programming a blank RKE transmitter to the vehicle electronics. A blank RKE transmitter is one that has never been programmed.


NOTE: When having the Sentry Key威 Immobilizer system serviced, bring all vehicle RKE transmitters with you to the authorized dealer. Customer Key Programming If you have two valid RKE transmitters with integrated keys, you can program new RKE transmitters to the system by performing the following steps: 1. Insert the first valid integrated key into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the ON position for at least three seconds, but no longer than 15 seconds. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position and remove the first key. 2. Insert the second valid integrated key and turn the ignition switch to the ON position within 15 seconds. After 10 seconds, a chime will sound and the Vehicle Security Light will begin to flash. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position and remove the second key.


THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 17


3. Insert a blank integrated key into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the ON position within 60 seconds. After 10 seconds, a single chime will sound and the Vehicle Security Light will stop flashing, turn the ignition switch ON again for three seconds, and then turn it OFF. The new integrated key is programmed. The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter will also be pro- grammed during this procedure. Repeat the above steps to program up to eight keys. If you do not have a programmed RKE transmitter with integrated key, contact your authorized for details.
