ROOF LUGGAGE RACK— NON FUNCTIONAL The tie loops provided in the Roof Ditch Applique can be used to help tie down cargo; however, metal rails/ crossbars should always be used whenever cargo is placed on the roof. Tie loops should not be used on their own to attach luggage to the Roof Ditch Applique. The load carried on the roof, when equipped with a luggage rack, must not exceed 150 lbs (68 kg), and it should be uniformly distributed over the cargo area. Check the straps frequently to be sure that the load remains securely attached. NOTE: Metal rails/crossbars are offered by Mopart accessories. See your authorized dealer. External racks do not increase the total load carrying capacity of the vehicle. Be sure that the total occupant and luggage load inside the vehicle, plus the load on the luggage rack, do not exceed the maximum vehicle load capacity.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the roof rack and vehicle, do not exceed the maximum roof rack load capacity. Always distribute heavy loads as evenly as possible and secure the load appropriately. Long loads, which extend over the windshield, such as wood panels or surfboards, should be secured to both the front and rear of the vehicle. Place a blanket or other protection between the surface of the roof and the load. Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners carefully when carrying large or heavy loads on the roof rack. Wind forces, due to natural causes or nearby truck traffic, can add sudden upward loads. This is espe- cially true on large flat loads and may result in damage to the cargo or your vehicle.
WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied before driving your vehicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off the vehicle, particularly at high speeds, resulting in per- sonal injury or property damage. Follow the roof rack Cautions when carrying cargo on your roof rack.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTION
1. Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows level of fuel in tank when ignition switch is in the ON position.
2. Fuel Cap Indicator
This symbol indicates the side of the vehicle where the fuel cap is located.
3. Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge indicates engine coolant temperature. Any reading within the normal range indicates that the cooling system is operat- ing satisfactorily. The gauge needle will likely indicate a high temperature when driving in hot weather, up moun- tain grades, in heavy traffic, or when towing a trailer. If the needle rises to the “H” mark, stop the vehicle, shift
into N (Neutral) increase engine speed for 2-3 minutes. If the temperature reading does not return to normal, seek authorized service immediately.
CAUTION!
Do not leave your vehicle unattended with the en- gine running as you would not be able to react to the temperature indicator if the engine overheats.
The gauge pointer will remain near its last reading when the engine is turned off. It will return to a true reading when the engine is restarted. 4. Low Fuel Warning Light
This indicator lights when the fuel gauge reads 1/8
of a tank or less.5. Seat Belt Reminder Light
This light comes on for several seconds after the ignition is turned ON as a reminder to “buckle up.” This light will remain on as long as the driver or passengers seat belt remains unbuckled. If the seat belt indicator remains on and/or flashes with belts buckled, this may indicate a fault in the seat belt reminder system. Have the system checked by an authorized dealer. 6. Coolant Temperature Warning Light
This light warns of an overheated engine condi- tion. For a bulb check, this light will come on momentarily when the ignition is turned On. If the light turns on while driving, stop the vehicle, shift into N (Neutral) and increase the engine speed for 2 to 3
minutes. If the temperature reading does not return to normal, seek authorized service immediately.INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS 169
As temperatures rise and the gauge approaches 9H9, this indicator will illuminate and a single chime will sound after reaching a set threshold. Further overheating will cause the temperature gauge to pass 9H9, the indicator will continuously flash, and a continuous chime will occur until the engine is allowed to cool.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature light is on, safely pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle in neutral with the air conditioner turned off until the light turns off. If the if the light remains on, turn the engine off immediately, and call for service.
170 INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned by steam or boiling coolant. You may want to call a service center if your vehicle overheats. If you decide to look under the hood yourself, see Section 7 of this manual. Follow the warnings under the Cooling System Pressure Cap paragraph.
7. Speedometer Shows the vehicles speed. 8. High Beam Indicator Light
Indicates that headlights are on high beam.
9. Security Alarm System Indicator Light — If Equipped This light will flash rapidly for approximately 15 seconds when the vehicle theft alarm is arming. The light will flash at a slower speed continuously after the alarm is set. The security light will also come on for about three seconds when the ignition is first turned on. 10. Electronic Stability Program (ESP) Warning Light/Brake Assist System (BAS) Warning Light – If Equipped
The malfunction lamp for the ESP is combined with BAS. The yellow “ESP/BAS Warning Lamp” and the yellow “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster both come on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position. They should go out with the engine running. If the “ESP/BAS Warning Lamp” comes on continuously with the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in either the ESP or the BAS system. If this light remains on
after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven several miles at speeds greater than 30 mph (48
km/h), see your authorized dealer as soon as possible. NOTE: The 9ESP/TCS Indicator Light9 and the 9ESP/ BAS Warning Lamp9 come on momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned ON. The ESP Control System will make buzzing or clicking sounds when it is actively operating. 11. TOW/HAUL Indicator Light — If EquippedThe TOW/HAUL button is located on the gear shift bezel. This light will illuminate when the TOW/HAUL button has been selected.
12. Turn Signal Indicator Light
When a turn signal is activated, a right-pointing or left-pointing arrow lights up and flashes to indicate the direction of the turn. These indicators also indicate proper operation of the front and rear turn signal lights.
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS 171
If either indicator flashes at a faster rate than normal, check for a defective bulb. If either indicator fails to light up when the lever is moved, check for a defective turn signal LED. A single chime is activated when the left/ right turn signal is left on with the engine RPM vehicle speed greater than 15 mph (24 km/h) for more than one mile. 13. Transmission Temperature Warning Light — If Equipped
This light indicates that there is excessive trans- mission fluid temperature that might occur with severe usage such as trailer towing. If this light comes on, stop the vehicle and run the engine at idle or faster, with the transmission in N (Neutral) until the light goes off. 14. Brake Warning Light The red “BRAKE” warning light will come on when the ignition key is first turned on, and stay on briefly as a
172 INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS
bulb check. If the bulb does not come on during starting, see your authorized dealer for service. If the light stays on, it may be an indication that the parking brake has not been released, or there is a low brake fluid level. If the light remains on when the parking brake has been disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake hydraulic system malfunction or a problem with the Brake Booster. In this case, the light will remain on until the condition has been corrected. If the problem is related to the brake Booster the ABS pump will run when applying the brake. The “BRAKE” warning light will flash whether or not it is in gear, if the park brake is applied, and the engine is running (manual transmission only). The “BRAKE” warning light will remain on steady with the park brake on and the shifter in the P (Park) position. If shifted out of P (Park), it will begin to flash (automatic transmission only).
If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is neces- sary. Operating the vehicle in this condition is danger- ous!
15. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Warning Light — If Equipped
This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control system. If a prob- lem is detected the light will come on while the engine is running. If the light remains lit with the engine running your vehicle will usually be drivable, however, see your dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light is flashing when the engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experience reduced performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may require towing. The light will come on when the ignition is first turned on and remain on for 15 seconds as a bulb check. If the light does not come on during starting, have the system checked by an authorized dealer.
16. Electronic Stability Program (ESP) Indicator Light/Traction Control System (TCS) Indicator Light
The yellow ESP indicator light in the speedom- eter area illuminates with the key in the igni- tion switch turned to the ON/RUN position. It should go out with the engine running. The 9ESP/TCS Indicator Light9 starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and the ESP system becomes active. The 9ESP/TCS Indicator Light9 also flashes when TCS is active. If the 9ESP/TCS Indicator Light9 begins to flash during acceleration, ease up on the accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions. The “ESP/ TCS Indicator Light” becomes illuminated when the ESP-Off button has been pressed or ESP is only partially available caused by lack of engine management or brake thermal model.
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS 173
17. Voltage Warning Light
This light monitors the electrical system voltage. The light should turn on momentarily as the engine is started. If the light stays on or turns on while driving, it indicates a problem with the charging system. Immediate service should be obtained. 18. SERV (Service) 4WD Indicator Light — If Equipped The “SERV 4WD Indicator Light” will come on when the ignition key is turned to the ON position and will stay on for 2 seconds. If the light stays on or comes on during driving, it means that the 4WD system is not functioning properly and that service is required. 19. Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light
This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System which is described elsewhere in this manual. This light will come on when the ignition key is turned to the ON position and may stay on for
174 INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS
approximately 3 seconds. If this light remains on or comes on during driving, it indicates that the Anti-Lock portion of the brake system is not functioning and that service is required. See your authorized dealer immedi- ately. With the ABS malfunctioning, the BAS and ESP are also switched off. Both malfunction indicator lights illu- minate with the engine running. If the charging voltage falls below 10 volts, the malfunction indicator light illuminates and the ABS is switched off. When the voltage is above this value again, the malfunction indi- cator light should go out and the ABS is operational. If the malfunction indicator light stays illuminated, have the system checked at your authorized dealer as soon as possible. 20. Front Fog Light Indicator Light — If Equipped This light shows when the fog lights are ON.
21. Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light indicates that the engine oil pressure has become too low. For a bulb check, this light will come on momentarily when the ignition is turned On. If the light turns on while driving, stop the vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. Immediate service should be obtained. 22. Airbag Warning Light
The indicator lights and remains lit for 6 to 8
seconds when the ignition is first turned ON. If the light does not come on when the ignition is first turned on, or the light stays on or comes on while driving, have the airbag system checked by an authorized dealer. 23. Tachometer This gauge measures engine revolutions-per-minute (rpm x 1000).24. Transmission Range Indicator The electronic gear selector display is self-contained within the instrument cluster. It displays the position of the automatic transmission shift lever, and the relation of each position to all other positions. For a good signal the display will place a box around the selected transmission range (PRND21). If the PRNDL displays only the char- acters PRND21 (no boxes) have the system checked by an authorized dealer. 25. Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light — If Equipped
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS 175
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accord- ingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a signifi- cantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to
176 INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS
maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subse- quent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the sys- tem may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replace- ment or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and warnings have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system opera- tion or sensor damage may result when using re- placement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use aftermarket tire sealants or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.
26. Odometer/Trip Odometer The odometer shows the total distance the vehicle has been driven. The trip odometer shows individual trip mileage. To toggle between the odometer and the trip odometer, press the Odometer/Trip Odometer Button. To reset the Trip Odometer, press and hold the button while in trip mode, until the Trip Odometer resets. If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the fuel filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged, GASCAP will be displayed in the instrument cluster. Tighten the fuel filler cap properly and press the odom- eter reset button to turn the GASCAP message off. If the problem continues, the message will appear the next time the vehicle is started. U.S. federal regulations require that upon transfer of vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the purchaser the
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS 177
correct mileage that the vehicle has been driven. There- fore, if the odometer reading is changed during repair or replacement, be sure to keep a record of the reading before and after the service so that the correct mileage can be determined. Change Oil Message Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change indicator system. The “Change Oil” message will flash in the instrument cluster odometer for approximately 12
seconds after a single chime has sounded to indicate the next scheduled oil change interval. The engine oil change indicator system is duty cycle based, which means the engine oil change interval may fluctuate dependent upon your personal driving style. Unless reset, this message will continue to display each time you turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position. To turn off the message temporarily, press and release the Trip Odometer button178 INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS
on the instrument cluster. To reset the oil change indica- tor system (after performing the scheduled maintenance) refer to the following procedure.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Do not start the engine). 2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal slowly three times within 10 seconds. 3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position. If the indicator message illuminates when you NOTE: start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not reset. If necessary repeat this procedure.
27. Malfunction Indicator Light
This light is part of an onboard diagnostic system which monitors the emissions and engine control system. If the vehicle is ready for emissions testing the light will come on when the ignition is first turned on and remain on, as a bulb check, until the engine is started. If the vehicle is not ready for emissions testing the light will come on when the ignition is first turned on and remain on for 15 seconds, then blink for 10
seconds, and remain on until the vehicle is started. If the bulb does not come on during starting, have the condi- tion investigated promptly. If this light comes on and remains on while driving, it suggests a potential engine control problem and the need for system service. Although your vehicle will usually be drivable and not need towing, see your dealer for service as soon as possible.CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the MIL on could cause damage to the engine control system. It also could affect fuel economy and driveability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic converter damage and power loss will soon occur. Immediate service is required.

Compass Variance Compass Variance is the difference between magnetic North and Geographic North. In some areas of the country, the difference between magnetic and geographic North is great enough to cause the compass to give false readings. In order to ensure compass accuracy, the com- pass variance should be properly set according to the compass variance map zone that the vehicle is in.
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS 183
NOTE: Magnetic materials should be kept away from the top of the right rear quarter window. This is where the compass sensor is located. To Set the Variance Start the engine, and leave the transmission in the P (Park) position. Press and hold (approximately ten sec- onds) the odometer/trip odometer reset button until the current variance zone number is displayed. To change the zone, press and release the odometer/trip odometer reset button to increment the variance one step. Repeat as necessary, until the desired variance is achieved. NOTE: The factory default zone is 8. During program- ming, the zone value will wrap around from zone 15 to zone 1. Compass Calibration If the compass appears erratic, inaccurate or abnormal, you may wish to calibrate the compass. Prior to calibrat- ing the compass make sure the proper zone is selected.
184 INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS
To Manually Calibrate the Compass Start the engine, and leave the transmission in the P (Park) position.

Oil Change Required Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change indicator system. The “Oil Change Required” message will flash in the EVIC display for approximately 10
seconds after a single chime has sounded to indicate the next scheduled oil change interval. The engine oil change indicator system is duty cycle based, which means the engine oil change interval may fluctuate dependent upon your personal driving style. Unless reset, this message will continue to display each time you turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position. To turn off the message temporarily, press and release the Menu button. To reset the oil change indicator system (after performing the scheduled maintenance) refer to the following procedure. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Do not start the engine). 2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal slowly three times within 10 seconds.188 INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS
3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position. If the indicator message illuminates when you NOTE: start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not reset. If necessary repeat this procedure. Trip Functions Press and release the MENU button until one of the following Trip Functions displays in the EVIC: † Average Fuel Economy † Distance To Empty † Elapsed Time † Display Units of Measure in Press the SCROLL button to cycle through all the Trip Computer functions. The Trip Functions mode displays the following informa- tion:
† Average Fuel Economy Shows the average fuel economy since the last reset. When the fuel economy is reset, the display will read “RESET” or show dashes for two seconds. Then, the history information will be erased, and the averaging will continue from the last fuel average reading before the reset. † Distance To Empty (DTE) Shows the estimated distance that can be traveled with the fuel remaining in the tank. This estimated distance is determined by a weighted average of the instantaneous and average fuel economy, according to the current fuel tank level. DTE cannot be reset through the FUNCTION SELECT button. NOTE: Significant changes in driving style or vehicle loading will greatly affect the actual drivable distance of the vehicle, regardless of the DTE displayed value.
† When the DTE value is less than 30 miles (48 km) estimated driving distance, the DTE display will change to a text display of 9LOW FUEL.9 This display will continue until the vehicle runs out of fuel. Adding a significant amount of fuel to the vehicle will turn off the 9LOW FUEL9 text and a new DTE value will display.
† Elapsed Time Shows the total elapsed time of travel since the last reset when the ignition switch is in the ACC position. Elapsed time will increment when the ignition switch is in the ON or START position. † Display Units of Measure in: To make your selection, press and release the FUNC- TION SELECT button until “US” or “METRIC” appears.

The “CAL” indicator will be dis- played in the EVIC.
5. Complete one or more 360° turns (in an area free from large metal or metallic objects) until the “CAL” indicator turns off. The compass will now function normally. Compass Variance Compass Variance is the difference between magnetic North and Geographic North. In some areas of the country, the difference between magnetic and geographic North is great enough to cause the compass to give false readings. For the most accurate compass performance, the compass variance must be set using the following procedure: NOTE: Magnetic materials should be kept away from the top of the right rear quarter window. This is where the compass sensor is located.

RADIO GENERAL INFORMATION
Radio Broadcast Signals Your new radio will provide excellent reception under most operating conditions. Like any system, however, car radios have performance limitations, due to mobile op- eration and natural phenomena, which might lead you to believe your sound system is malfunctioning. To help
you understand and save you concern about these “ap- parent” malfunctions, you must understand a point or two about the transmission and reception of radio sig- nals. Two Types of Signals There are two basic types of radio signals... AM or Amplitude Modulation, in which the transmitted sound causes the amplitude, or height, of the radio waves to vary... and FM or Frequency Modulation, in which the frequency of the wave is varied to carry the sound. Electrical Disturbances Radio waves may pick up electrical disturbances during transmission. They mainly affect the wave amplitude, and thus remain a part of the AM reception. They interfere very little with the frequency variations that carry the FM signal.
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS 197
SALES CODE REQ — AM/FM STEREO RADIO AND 6–DISC CD/DVD CHANGER (MP3/WMA AUX JACK)
NOTE: The radio sales code is located on the lower right side of your radio faceplate.
AM Reception AM sound is based on wave amplitude, so AM reception can be disrupted by such things as lightning, power lines and neon signs. FM Reception Because FM transmission is based on frequency varia- tions, interference that consists of amplitude variations can be filtered out, leaving the reception relatively clear, which is the major feature of FM radio. NOTE: The radio, steering wheel radio controls (if equipped), and 6 disc CD/DVD changer (if equipped) will remain active for up to 10 minutes after the ignition switch has been turned off. Opening a vehicle front door will cancel this feature.

Notes On Playing MP3/WMA Files The radio can play MP3/WMA files; however, acceptable MP3/WMA file recording media and formats are limited. When writing MP3/WMA files, pay attention to the following restrictions. Supported Media (Disc Types) The MP3/WMA file recording media supported by the radio are CDDA, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3,WMA, DVD Video, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, and CDDA+MP3. Supported Medium Formats (File Systems) The medium formats supported by the radio are ISO 9660
Level 1 and Level 2 and includes the Joliet extension. When reading discs recorded using formats other than ISO 9660 Level 1 and Level 2, the radio may fail to read files properly and may be unable to play the file nor- mally. UDF and Apple HFS formats are not supported. The radio uses the following limits for file systems:† Maximum number of directory levels: 8
† Maximum number of files: 255
† Maximum number of folders: 100
† Maximum number of characters in file/folder names: † Level 1: 12 (including a separator 9.9 and a † Level 2: 31 (including a separator3-character extension)
9.9 and a
3-character extension)
Multisession disc formats are supported by the radio. Multisession discs may contain combinations of normal CD audio tracks and computer files (including MP3/ WMA files). Discs created with an option such as 9keep disc open after writing9 are most likely multisession discs. The use of multisession for CD audio or MP3/ WMA playback may result in longer disc loading times.
If a disc contains multi formats, such as CD audio and mp3/wma tracks, the radio will only play the mp3/wma tracks on that disc. Supported MP3/WMA File Formats The radio will recognize only files with the *.MP3/WMA extension as MP3/WMA files. Non-MP3/WMA files named with the *.MP3/WMA extension may cause play- back problems. The radio is designed to recognize the file as an invalid MP3/WMA and will not play the file. When using the MP3/WMA encoder to compress audio data to an MP3/WMA file, the bit rate and sampling frequencies in the following table are supported. In addition, variable bit rates (VBR) are also supported. The majority of MP3/WMA files use a 44.1 kHz sampling rate and a 192, 160, 128, 96 or VBR bit rates.
