160 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE System Usage Precautions NOTE: • Ensure that the rear bumper is free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep ParkSense威 operating properly. • Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could • When you turn ParkSense威 off, the instrument cluster will display “PARK ASSIST DISABLED.” Further- more, once you turn ParkSense威 off, it remains off until you turn it on again, even if you cycle the ignition key. • When you move the shift lever to the REVERSE position and ParkSense威 is turned off, a single chime will sound once per ignition cycle and the instrument cluster will display “PARK ASSIST DISABLED.” • ParkSense威, when on, will MUTE the radio when it is


sounding a tone.


• If a ParkSense威 system malfunction occurs, a single chime will sound once per ignition cycle. In addition, the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) will display “SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” and the LED in the ParkSense威 Rear Park Assist switch will illuminate. If this occurs after making sure the rear bumper is free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris, see your authorized dealer for service.


CAUTION!


• ParkSense威 is only a parking aid and it is unable to recognize every obstacle, including small ob- stacles. Parking curbs might be temporarily de- tected or not detected at all. Obstacles located above or below the sensors will not be detected when they are in close proximity.


(Continued)


CAUTION! (Continued)


• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using ParkSense威 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 ParkSense威. • Clean the ParkSense威 sensors with water, car wash soap, and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths.

HomeLink威 Buttons


NOTE: HomeLink威 is disabled when the Vehicle Secu- rity Alarm is active.


166 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE


WARNING!


• Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are training the Universal Transceiver. Do not train the transceiver if people, pets or other objects are in the path of the door or gate. Only use this transceiver with a garage door opener that has a “stop and reverse” feature as required by Federal safety standards. This includes most garage door opener models manufactured after 1982. Do not use a garage door opener without these safety features. Call toll-free 1–800–355–3515 or, on the Internet at www.HomeLink.com for safety infor- mation or assistance. • Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a dan- gerous gas. Do not run your vehicle in the garage while training the transceiver. Exhaust gas can cause serious injury or death.


Programming HomeLink姞


Before You Begin If you have not trained any of the HomeLink威 buttons, erase all channels before you begin training. To do this, press and hold the two outside buttons for 20 seconds until the red indicator flashes. It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the handheld transmitter of the device that is being copied to HomeLink威 for more efficient training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal. Your vehicle should be parked outside of the garage when programming. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position. 2. Hold the battery side of the handheld transmitter away from the HomeLink威 button you wish to program.


Place the handheld transmitter 1–3 in (3-8 cm) away from the HomeLink威 button you wish to program while keeping the indicator light in view. 3. Simultaneously press and hold both the chosen HomeLink威 button and the handheld transmitter button until the HomeLink威 indicator changes from a slow to a rapidly blinking light, then release both the HomeLink威 and handheld transmitter buttons. Watch for the HomeLink威 indicator to change flash rates. When it changes, it is programmed. It may take up to 30 seconds or longer in rare cases. The garage door may open and close while you train. NOTE: • Some gate operators and garage door openers may require you to replace Step 3 with procedures noted in the “Gate Operator/Canadian Programming” section.


UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 167


• After training a HomeLink威 channel, if the garage door does not operate with HomeLink威 and the ga- rage door opener was manufactured after 1995, the garage door opener may have a rolling code. If so, proceed to the heading “Programming A Rolling Code System.”


4. Press and hold the just-trained HomeLink威 button and observe the indicator light. If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and the garage door (or device) should activate when the HomeLink威 button is pressed. If the indicator light blinks rapidly for two seconds, and then turns to a constant light, continue with program- ming for a Rolling Code. 5. PROGRAMMING A ROLLING CODE SYSTEM At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “Learn” or “Training” button.


168 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the garage door opener motor (it is NOT the button normally used to open and close the door).


1 — Garage Door Opener 2 — Training Button


6. Firmly press and release the LEARN or TRAINING button. The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer. NOTE: You have 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step after the LEARN button has been pressed. 7. Return to the vehicle and press the programmed HomeLink威 button twice (holding the button for two seconds each time). If the device is plugged in and activates, programming is complete. If the device does not activate, press the button a third time (for two seconds) to complete the training. If you have any problems, or require assistance, please call toll-free 1–800–355–3515 or, on the Internet at www.HomeLink.com for information or assistance. To program the remaining two HomeLink威 buttons, repeat each step for each remaining button. DO NOT erase the channels.


Gate Operator/Canadian Programming Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig- nals to “time-out” (or quit) after several seconds of transmission – which may not be long enough for HomeLink威 to pick up the signal during programming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to “time-out” in the same manner. It may be helpful to unplug the device during the cycling process to prevent possible overheating of the garage door or gate motor. If you are having difficulties programming a garage door opener or a gate operator, replace “Programming HomeLink威” Step 3 with the following: 3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink威 button, while you press and release (“cycle”), your handheld transmitter every two seconds until HomeLink威 has

192 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTIONS


1. Fuel Gauge The fuel gauge shows level of fuel in tank when ignition switch is in the ON position. 2. Fuel Door Reminder


This symbol indicates the side of the vehicle where the fuel cap is located.


3. Temperature Gauge The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tempera- ture. Any reading within the normal range indicates that the engine cooling system is operating satisfactorily.


The gauge pointer will likely indicate a higher tempera- ture when driving in hot weather, up mountain grades, or when towing a trailer. It should not be allowed to exceed the upper limits of the normal operating range.


CAUTION!


Driving with a hot engine cooling system could damage your vehicle. If temperature gauge reads “H” pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the pointer remains on the “H” and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine off immediately, and call an authorized deal- ership for service.


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 an authorized dealer- ship for service if your vehicle overheats. If you decide to look under the hood yourself, see “Main- taining Your Vehicle”. Follow the warnings under the Cooling System Pressure Cap paragraph.

This light will flash at a fast rate for approxi- mately 15 seconds, when the vehicle security alarm is arming, and then will flash slowly until the vehicle is disarmed.


10. Electronic Stability Program (ESP) Warning Light / Brake Assist System (BAS) Warning Light – If Equipped


The malfunction light for the Electronic Stabil- ity Program (ESP) is combined with Brake Assist System (BAS). The yellow “ESP/BAS Warning Light” comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position. They should go out with the engine running. If the “ESP/BAS Warning Light” 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 (kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), see an authorized dealer as soon as possible. NOTE: The ESP Control System will make buzzing or clicking sounds when it is actively operating.


WARNING!


If a warning light remains on the system may not be working and you will not have the benefit of ESP or BAS. Under certain driving conditions, where ESP or BAS would be beneficial, you - if you have not adjusted your driving speeds and stopping in or to account for the lack of the feature, may be in acci- dent.


11. TOW/HAUL Indicator — If Equipped


The 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 Indicators


The arrow will flash with the exterior turn signal when the turn signal lever is operated.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 195
If the vehicle electronics sense that the vehicle has traveled about 1 mile (1.6 km) with the turn signals on, a continuous chime will sound to alert you to turn the signals off. If either indicator flashes at a rapid rate, check for a defective outside light bulb. 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 NEU- TRAL until the light goes off.


CAUTION!


Continuous driving with the Transmission Tempera- ture Warning Light illuminated will eventually cause severe transmission damage or transmission failure.


196 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL


WARNING!


Continued operation with the Transmission Tem- perature Warning Light illuminated could cause the fluid to boil over, come in contact with hot engine or exhaust components causing a fire that may result in personal injury.


14. Brake Warning Light


This light monitors various brake functions, including brake fluid level and parking brake application. If the brake light turns on, it may indicate that the parking brake is applied, that the brake fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with the anti-lock brake system reservoir. 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 that a problem with the


Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) / Electronic Stability Program (ESP) sys- tem. 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 and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt during each stop. The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capac- ity in the event of a failure to a portion of the hydraulic system. A leak in either half of the dual brake system is indicated by the Brake Warning Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level in the master cylinder has dropped below a specified level. The light will remain on until the cause is corrected. NOTE: The light may flash momentarily during sharp cornering maneuvers, which change fluid level condi- tions. The vehicle should have service performed, and the brake fluid level checked.


If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is neces- sary.


WARNING!


Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may have failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have an accident. Have the vehicle checked immediately.


Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), are also equipped with Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD). In the event of an EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light will turn on along with the ABS Light. Immediate repair to the ABS system is required. Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked by turning the ignition switch from the OFF position to the ON position. The light should illuminate for approxi- mately two seconds. The light should then turn off unless


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 197
the parking brake is applied or a brake fault is detected. If the light does not illuminate, have the light inspected by an authorized dealer. The light also will turn on when the parking brake is applied with the ignition switch in the ON position. NOTE: This light shows only that the parking brake is applied. It does not show the degree of brake application. 15. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light


This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system. If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running. Cycle the ignition key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever is placed in the PARK position. The light should turn off. If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable; however, see an authorized dealer for service as soon as possible. If


198 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL the light is flashing when the engine is running, imme- diate 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 briefly as a bulb check. If the light does not come on during starting, have the system checked by an autho- rized dealer. 16. Electronic Stability Program (ESP) Indicator Light / Traction Control System (TCS) Indicator Light


The yellow Electronic Stability Program (ESP) / Traction Control System (TCS) indicator light in the speedometer area illuminates with the key in the ignition switch turned to the ON/ RUN position. It should go out with the engine running. The ⬙ESP/TCS Indicator Light⬙ starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and the ESP system becomes active. The ⬙ESP/TCS Indicator Light⬙ also flashes when TCS is active. If the ⬙ESP/TCS Indicator Light⬙ 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. 17. Charging System Light


This light shows the status of the electrical charg- ing system. The light should come on when the ignition switch is first turned ON and remain on briefly as a bulb check. If the light stays on or comes on while driving, turn off some of the vehicle’s non-essential electrical devices or increase engine speed (if at idle). If the charging system light remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the charging system. Obtain SERVICE IMMEDIATELY. See an autho- rized dealer.


If jump starting is required, refer to “Jump Starting Procedures” in “What To Do In Emergencies”. 18. SERV (Service) 4WD Indicator — 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 two 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 (ABS) Light


This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). The light will turn on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position and may stay on for as long as four seconds.


If the ABS light remains on or turns on while driving, it indicates that the Anti-Lock portion of the brake system is not functioning and that service is required. However,


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 199
the conventional brake system will continue to operate normally if the BRAKE warning light is not on. If the ABS light is on, the brake system should be serviced as soon as possible to restore the benefits of Anti-Lock brakes. If the ABS light does not turn on when the Ignition switch is turned to the ON position, have the light inspected by an authorized dealer. 20. Front Fog Light Indicator — If Equipped


This indicator will illuminate when the fog lights are On.


21. Oil Pressure Warning Light


This light indicates low engine oil pressure. The light should turn on momentarily when the engine is started. If the light turns on while driving, stop the vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound for four minutes when this light turns on.


200 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL Do not operate the vehicle until the cause is corrected. This light does not indicate how much oil is in the engine. The engine oil level must be checked under the hood. 22. Airbag Warning Light


This light will turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first turned ON. If the light is either not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, then have the system inspected at an authorized dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle” for further information. 23. Tachometer This gauge measures engine revolutions-per-minute (RPM x 1000). Before the pointer reaches the red area, ease up on the accelerator to prevent engine damage.


24. Shift Lever Indicator The Shift Lever Indicator is self-contained within the instrument cluster. It displays the gear position of the automatic transmission. 25. Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light


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 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.


Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illumi- nates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly 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 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


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 201
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 replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.


202 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL


CAUTION!


The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and warning 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 tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.


26. Odometer / Trip Odometer Display Area The odometer shows the total distance the vehicle has been driven. The trip odometer shows individual trip mileage. Refer to “Trip Odometer Button” for additional information.


NOTE: U.S. Federal regulations require that upon trans- fer of vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the pur- chaser the correct mileage that the vehicle has been driven. If your odometer needs to be repaired or serviced, the repair technician should leave the odometer reading the same as it was before the repair or service. If s/he cannot do so, then the odometer must be set at zero, and a sticker must be placed in the door jamb stating what the mileage was before the repair or service. It is a good idea for you to make a record of the odometer reading before the repair/service, so that you can be sure that it is properly reset, or that the door jamb sticker is accurate if the odometer must be reset at zero.

Press the Odometer / Trip Odometer / ECO (Fuel Saver Indicator) button to change the display from odometer to either of the two trip odometer settings or the “ECO” display. gASCAP Message If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the fuel filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged, “gASCAP” will be displayed in the odometer display area. Tighten the fuel filler cap properly and press the odometer reset button to turn the gASCAP message off. If the problem continues, the message will appear the next time the vehicle is started.


204 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL A loose, improperly installed, or damaged fuel filler cap may also turn on the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL). noFUSE If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the Ignition Off Draw (IOD) fuse is improperly installed, or damaged, a “noFUSE” message will display in the odom- eter display area. For further information on fuses and fuse locations refer to “Fuses” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle”. 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 button on the instrument cluster. To reset the oil change indicator system (after performing the scheduled maintenance), refer to the following proce- dure:


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 (MIL)


The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is part of an onboard diagnostic system, called OBD, that monitors engine and automatic transmission con- trol systems. The light will illuminate when the key is in the ON position, before engine start. If the bulb does not come on when turning the key from OFF to ON, have the condition checked promptly. Certain conditions such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor fuel quality, etc., may illuminate the MIL after engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through several of your typical driving cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and will not require towing.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 205


CAUTION!


Prolonged driving with the MIL on could cause damage to the engine control system. It also could affect fuel economy and drivability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic converter damage and power loss will soon occur. Immediate service is required.


WARNING!


A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as referenced above, can reach higher temperatures than in normal operating conditions. This can cause a fire if you drive slowly or park over flammable substances such as dry plants or wood or cardboard, etc. This could result in death or serious injury to the driver, occu- pants or others.

Compass Variance Compass Variance is the difference between Magnetic North and Geographic North. To compensate for the differences, the variance should be set for the zone where the vehicle is driven, per the zone map. Once properly set, the compass will automatically compensate for the differences and provide the most accurate compass head- ing. NOTE: • A good calibration requires a level surface and an environment free from large metallic objects such as buildings, bridges, underground cables, railroad tracks, etc.
