96 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

You can use your UConnect™ system to access a voice- mail system or an automated service, such as, paging service or automated customer service. Some services require immediate response selection, in some instances, that may be too quick for use of UConnect™ system. When calling a number with your UConnect™ system that normally requires you to enter in a touch-tone sequence on your cellular phone keypad, you can push the “Voice Recognition” button and say the sequence you wish to enter followed by the word 9Send.9 For example, if required to enter your pin number followed with a pound 3 7 4 6 #, you can press the “Voice Recognition” button and say 93 7 4 6 # Send.9 Saying a number, or sequence of numbers, followed by 9Send9 is also to be used to navigate through an automated customer service center menu structure and to leave a number on a pager. You can also send stored UConnect™ phonebook entries as tones for fast and easy access to voicemail and pager

entries. To use this feature, dial the number you wish to call and then press the “Voice Recognition” button and say “Send.” The system will prompt you to enter the name or number, say the name of the phonebook entry you wish to send.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 97

notification to inform you of your phone and network status when you are attempting to make a phone call using UConnect™. The status is given for roaming, network signal strength, phone battery strength, etc. Dialing Using the Cellular Phone Keypad You can dial a phone number with your cellular phone keypad and still use the UConnect™ system (while dialing via the cell phone keypad, the user must exercise caution and take precautionary safety measures). By dialing a number with your paired Bluetooth™ cellular phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle’s audio system. The UConnect™ system will work the same as if you dial the number using voice recognition. NOTE: Certain brands of mobile phones do not send the dial ring to the UConnect™ system to play it on the vehicle audio system, so you will not hear it. Under this situation, after successfully dialing a number, the user

Automatic Headlight System — If Equipped Turn the end of the multi-function control lever to the third detent to activate the automatic headlight system. This system performs two functions. With the engine running and the multi-function control lever in the A (Auto) position, the headlights will turn on and off based on the surrounding light levels. Headlights On Automatically With Wipers If your vehicle is equipped with Automatic Headlights it also has this customer programmable feature. When your headlights are in the automatic mode, and the engine is running, they will automatically turn on when the wiper system is on. If your vehicle is equipped with a “Rain Sensitive Wiper System,” and it is activated, the headlights will automati- cally turn on after the wipers complete five wipe cycles within approximately 1 minute, and they will turn off

approximately four minutes after the wipers completely stop. Refer to “Windshield Wipers and Washers” in this section for more information. NOTE: When your headlights come on during the daytime, the instrument panel lights will automatically dim to the lower nighttime intensity. Refer to “Instru- ment Panel and Interior Lights” below for setting the instrument panel lights to full daytime intensity. SmartBeams — If Equipped The SmartBeam system provides increased forward light- ing at night by automating high beam control through the use of a digital camera mounted on the inside rearview mirror. This camera detects vehicle specific light and automatically switches from high beams to low beams until the approaching vehicle is out of view.

If the windshield or SmartBeam mirror is re- NOTE: placed, the SmartBeam mirror must be re-aimed to ensure proper performance. See your local authorized dealer. To Activate 1. Select “Auto Headlamp Low/High Beams? — Low/ High Beam.” Refer to “EVIC — Customer Programmable Features” in Section 4 of this manual. 2. Turn the end of the multi-function control lever to the A (Auto) headlight position. NOTE: This system will not activate until the vehicle is at or above 20 mph (32 km/h). To Deactivate 1.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 127

2. Pull back on the multi-function control lever once again to re-activate the system. NOTE: Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and taillights of vehicles in the field of view will cause headlights to remain on longer (closer to the vehicle). Also, dirt, film, and other obstructions (sticker, toll box, etc.) on the windshield or camera lens will cause the system to function improperly. Instrument Panel and Interior Lights When the multi-function control lever is in the parklight, headlight, or A (Auto) position (if equipped), rotating the center portion of the lever up and down will increase and decrease the brightness (dimmer control) of the instru- ment panel lights. Full daytime brightness on all elec- tronic displays (odometer, overhead console, radio, and Automatic Climate Control (if equipped) is obtained by rotating the center portion of the control to the first detent above the dimmer range. Rotating the control to

128 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

the second detent above the dimmer range turns the interior lights on. Rotating the control to the “Off” (extreme bottom) position disables all the interior lights, even when the doors and liftgate are open. While in the “Off” position the instrument panel lighting is at the lowest light level and may not be suitable for night driving. Daytime Running Lights — If Equipped The high beam headlights come on at a low intensity level whenever the engine is running, and the transmis- sion is not in the P (Park) position. The lights remain on until the ignition switch is turned OFF or the parking brake is engaged. The headlight switch must be used for normal night time driving.

Lights-On Reminder If the headlights or parking lights are on after the ignition is turned OFF, a chime will sound when the driver’s door is opened. Fog Lights — If Equipped

The fog light switch is located in the multi- function control lever. To activate the fog lights, turn on the park/turn lights, low beam headlights, or “Auto” headlights and pull out the end of the multi- function control lever. A light in the instrument cluster shows when the fog lights are on. NOTE: Turning on the high beam headlights turns off the fog lights. A front fog light is a lighting device providing illumina- tion forward of the vehicle under conditions of fog, rain, snow, or dust. Principally, the front fog light supplements the lower beam of a standard headlight system.

NOTE: Proper aim and adjustments of the front fog lights should be made to prevent excessive glare for other drivers. Turn Signals Move the multi-function control lever up or down and the arrows on each side of the instrument cluster will flash to show proper operation of the front and rear turn signal lights. You can signal a lane change by moving the lever partially up or down.

WARNING!

Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield could lead to an accident. You might not see other vehicles or other obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the windshield during freezing weather, warm the windshield with the defroster before and during windshield washer use.

Mist Use this feature when weather conditions make occa- sional usage of the wipers necessary. Pull down and release the control lever for a single wiping cycle. Speed Sensitive Intermittent Wiper System Use one of the five intermittent wiper speeds when weather conditions make a single wiping cycle, with a variable pause between cycles, desirable. Turn the end of the lever to one of the five delay positions for the desired delay interval. The delay can be regulated from a maxi- mum of approximately 18 seconds between cycles, to a cycle every 1/2 second. NOTE: The wiper delay times depend on vehicle speed. If the vehicle is moving less than 10 mph (16 km/h), delay times will be doubled.

Rain Sensing Wipers—If Equipped This feature senses moisture on the windshield and automatically activates the wipers for the driver. The feature is especially useful for road splash or overspray from the windshield washers of the vehicle ahead. Rotate the end of the multi-function lever to one of five settings to activate this feature. The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted with the multi-function lever. Wiper delay position 1 is the least sensitive, and wiper delay position 5 is the most sensi- tive. Setting 3 should be used for normal rain conditions. Settings 1 and 2 can be used if the driver desires less wiper sensitivity. Settings 4 and 5 can be used if the driver desires more sensitivity.

To Deactivate A soft tap on the brake pedal, pulling the speed control lever towards you “CANCEL”, or normal brake or clutch pressure while slowing the vehicle will deactivate speed control without erasing the set speed memory. Pressing the ON/OFF button or turning off the ignition switch erases the set speed memory. To Resume Speed To resume a previously set speed, push the “RESUME ACCEL” lever up and release. Resume can be used at any speed above 30 mph (48 km/h) for 3.7L/4.7L engines, and 25 mph (40 km/h) for 5.7L engines. To Vary The Speed Setting When the speed control is ON, speed can be increased by pushing up and holding “RESUME ACCEL”. Release the lever when the desired speed is reached, and the new speed will be set.

Tapping “RESUME ACCEL” once will result in a 2 mph (3 km/h) (3.7L/4.7L models) or a 1 mph (2 km/h) (5.7L models) speed increase. Each time the lever is tapped, speed increases so that tapping the lever three times will increase speed by 6 mph (10 km/h) (3.7L/4.7L models) or 3 mph (5 km/h) (5.7L models). To decrease speed while speed control is ON, push down and hold “SET DECEL”. Release the lever when the desired speed is reached, and the new speed will be set. Tapping the “SET DECEL” button once will result in a 1
mph (2 km/h) speed decrease. Each time the button is tapped, speed decreases. NOTE: The Speed Control system has been designed to shut down if multiple speed control switch functions are operated simultaneously in order to ensure proper op- eration. If this occurs, the system can be reactivated by pushing the speed control switch ON/OFF button and re-setting the desired vehicle SET speed.

To Accelerate For Passing Depress the accelerator as you would normally. When the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed. Using Speed Control On Hills The automatic transmission may downshift on hills to maintain the vehicle set speed. NOTE: The speed control system maintains speed up and down hills. A slight speed change on moderate hills is normal. On steep hills a greater speed loss or gain may occur so it may be preferable to drive without speed control.

ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced electronic brake control system that includes ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System), TCS (Traction Control System), BAS (Brake Assist System), ERM (Electronic Roll Mitigation), and ESP (Electronic Stability Program). All five of these systems work together to enhance vehicle stability and control in various driving conditions. Also, your vehicle is equipped with TSC (Trailer Sway Control) and, if it has 4WD with the NV245 two-speed transfer case, HSA (Hill Start Assist) and HDC (Hill Descent Control). ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System)

This system aids the driver in maintaining vehicle control under adverse braking conditions. The system controls hydraulic brake pressure to prevent wheel lock-up and

140 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

help avoid skidding on slippery surfaces during braking. Refer to “Anti-Lock Brake System” in Section 5 of this manual for more information about ABS.

WARNING!

ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. ABS cannot prevent accidents, in- cluding those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro- planing. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents. The capabilities of an ABS- equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reck- less or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of others.

TCS (Traction Control System)

This system monitors the amount of wheel spin of each of the driven wheels. If wheel spin is detected, brake pressure is applied to the slipping wheel(s) and engine power is reduced to provide enhanced acceleration and stability. A feature of the TCS system functions similar to a limited slip differential and controls the wheel spin across a driven axle. If one wheel on a driven axle is spinning faster than the other, the system will apply the brake of the spinning wheel. This will allow more engine torque to be applied to the wheel that is not spinning. This feature remains active even if TCS and ESP are in either the “Partial Off” or “Full Off” modes. Refer to “ESP (Electronic Stability Program)” in this section for more information.

BAS (Brake Assist System) The BAS is designed to optimize the vehicle’s braking capability during emergency braking maneuvers. The system detects an emergency braking situation by sens- ing the rate and amount of brake application and then applies optimum pressure to the brakes. This can help reduce braking distances. The BAS complements the anti-lock brake system (ABS). Applying the brakes very quickly results in the best BAS assistance. To receive the benefit of the system, you must apply continuous brak- ing pressure during the stopping sequence (do not “pump” the brakes). Do not reduce brake pedal pressure unless braking is no longer desired. Once the brake pedal is released, the BAS is deactivated.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 141

WARNING!

BAS (Brake Assist System) cannot prevent the natu- ral laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. BAS cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent acci- dents. The capabilities of a BAS-equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of others.

142 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

ERM (Electronic Roll Mitigation) This system anticipates the potential for wheel lift by monitoring the driver’s steering wheel input and the speed of the vehicle. When ERM determines that the rate of change of the steering wheel angle and vehicles speed are sufficient to potentially cause wheel it then applies the brake of the appropriate wheel and may also reduce engine power to lessen the chance that wheel lift will occur. ERM will only intervene during very severe or evasive driving maneuvers. ERM can only reduce the chance of wheel lift occurring during severe or evasive driving maneuvers. It cannot prevent wheel lift due to other factors such as road conditions, leaving the roadway or striking objects or other vehicles.

lift,

NOTE: Anytime the ESP system is in the “Full Off” mode, ERM is disabled. Refer to ESP (Electronic Stability Program) for a complete explanation of the available ESP modes.

WARNING!

Many factors, such as vehicle loading, road condi- tions and driving conditions, influence the chance that wheel lift or rollover may occur. ERM cannot prevent all wheel lift or rollovers, especially those that involve leaving the roadway or striking objects or other vehicles. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents. The capabilities of an ERM-equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner which could jeopar- dize the user’s safety or the safety of others.

ESP (Electronic Stability Program)

This system enhances directional control and stability of the vehicle under various driving conditions. ESP cor- rects for oversteering or understeering of the vehicle by applying the brake of the appropriate wheel to assist in counteracting the oversteer or understeer condition. En- gine power may also be reduced to help the vehicle maintain the desired path. ESP uses sensors in the vehicle to determine the vehicle path intended by the driver and compares it to the actual path of the vehicle. When the actual path does not match the intended path, ESP applies the brake of the appropri- ate wheel to assist in counteracting the oversteer or understeer condition.

The 9ESP/TCS Indicator Light9 located in the instrument cluster, 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.

WARNING!

ESP (Electronic Stability Program) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. ESP cannot prevent accidents, in- cluding those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro- planing. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents. The capabilities of an ESP- equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reck- less or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of others.

The ESP system has 3 available operating modes in 4WD High Range, 2 available operating modes on 2WD ve- hicles, and 1 operating mode in 4WD Low Range.

High Range (4WD Models) or 2WD Models

On This is the normal operating mode for ESP in 4WD high range and in 2WD vehicles. Whenever the vehicle is started or the transfer case (if equipped) is shifted from 4WD low range or neutral back to 4WD high range, the ESP system will be in this “On” mode. This mode should be used for most driving situations. ESP should only be turned to “Partial Off” or “Full Off” mode for specific reasons as noted below. Partial Off This mode is entered by momentarily depressing the 9ESP OFF” switch. When in 9Partial Off9 mode, the TCS portion of ESP, except for the “limited slip” feature described in the TCS section, has been disabled and the 9ESP/TCS Indicator Light9 will be illuminated. All other stability features of ESP function normally. This mode is intended to be used if the vehicle is in deep snow, sand,

or gravel conditions and more wheel spin than ESP would normally allow is required to gain traction. To turn ESP on again, momentarily depress the 9ESP OFF” switch. This will restore the normal “ESP On” mode of operation.

ESP OFF Switch

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 145

NOTE: To improve the vehicle’s traction when driving with snow chains, or starting off in deep snow, sand, or gravel, it may be desirable to switch to the “Partial Off” mode by pressing the ESP switch. Once the situation requiring ESP to be switched to the “Partial Off” mode is overcome, turn ESP back on by momentarily depressing the “ESP OFF” switch. This may be done while the vehicle is in motion. Full Off (4WD Models Only) This mode is intended for off-highway or off-road use when ESP stability features could inhibit vehicle maneu- verability due to trail conditions. This mode is entered by depressing and holding the “ESP OFF” switch for 5
seconds when the vehicle is stopped and the engine is running. After 5 seconds, the “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” will illuminate, and the 9ESP OFF9 message will appear in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC). Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in Section 4 of this manual for more information.

146 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

In this mode, ESP and TCS, except for the “limited slip” feature described in the TCS section, are turned off until the vehicle reaches a speed of 40 mph (64 km/h). At 40
mph (64 km/h) the system returns to “Partial Off” mode, described above. When the vehicle speed drops below 35
mph (56 km/h) the ESP system shuts off. ESP is deacti- vated at low vehicle speeds so that it will not interfere with off-road driving but ESP function returns to provide the stability feature at speeds above 40 mph (64 km/h). The “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” will always be illumi- nated when ESP is off. To turn ESP on again, momen- tarily depress the “ESP OFF” switch. This will restore the normal “ESP On” mode of operation. NOTE: The “ESP OFF” message will display and the audible chime will sound when the gear selector is placed into the “P” (Park) position from any other position, and then moved out of the “P” (Park) position. This will occur even if the message was previously cleared.

WARNING!

With the ESP switched off, the enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESP and ERM are unavailable. In an emergency evasive maneuver, the ESP and ERM systems will not engage to assist in maintaining stability. The “Full Off” ESP mode is intended for off-road use only.

4WD Low Range

Full Off This is the normal operating mode for ESP in 4WD low range. Whenever the vehicle is started in 4WD low range, or the transfer case (if equipped) is shifted from 4WD high range or neutral to 4WD low range, the ESP system will be in this “Full Off” mode. In 4WD low range, ESP and TCS, except for the “limited slip” feature described in the TCS section, are turned off until the vehicle reaches

a speed of 40 mph (64 km/h). At 40 mph (64 km/h), the normal ESP stability function returns but TCS remains off. When the vehicle speed drops below 35 mph (56
km/h), the ESP system shuts off. ESP is deactivated at low vehicle speeds in 4WD low range so that it will not interfere with off-road driving but ESP function returns to provide the stability feature at speeds above 40 mph (64 km/h). The 9ESP/TCS Indicator Light9 will always be illuminated in 4WD low range when ESP is off. NOTE: The “ESP OFF” message will display and the audible chime will sound when the gear selector is placed into the “P” (Park) position from any other position, and then moved out of the “P” (Park) position. This will occur even if the message was previously cleared

WARNING!

With the ESP switched off, the enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESP and ERM are unavailable. In an emergency evasive maneuver, the ESP and ERM systems will not engage to assist in maintaining stability. The “Full Off” mode is intended for off- road use only.

TSC (Trailer Sway Control) TSC uses sensors in the vehicle to recognize an exces- sively swaying trailer and will take the appropriate actions to attempt to stop the sway. The system may reduce engine power and apply the brake of the appro- priate wheel(s) to counteract the sway of the trailer. TSC will become active automatically once an excessively swaying trailer is recognized. No driver action is re- quired. Note that TSC cannot stop all trailers from

148 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

swaying. Always use caution when towing a trailer and follow the tongue weight recommendations. Refer to “Trailer Towing” in Section 5 of this manual for more information on towing a trailer with your vehicle. When TSC is functioning, the “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” will flash, the engine power may be reduced and you may feel the brakes being applied to individual wheels to attempt to stop the trailer from swaying. TSC is disabled when the ESP system is in the Partial Off or Full Off modes.

WARNING!

If TSC activates while driving, slow the vehicle down, stop at the nearest safe location, and adjust the trailer load to eliminate trailer sway.

HSA (Hill Start Assist) (4WD Models with NV245
Two–Speed Transfer Case Only) The HSA system is designed to assist the driver when starting a vehicle from a stop on a hill. HSA will maintain the level of brake pressure the driver applied for a short period of time after the driver takes their foot off of the brake pedal. If the driver does not apply the throttle during this short period of time, the system will release brake pressure and the vehicle will roll down the hill. The system will release brake pressure in proportion to amount of throttle applied as the vehicle starts to move in the intended direction of travel.

HSA Activation Criteria The following criteria must be met in order for HSA to activate: † Vehicle must be stopped. † Vehicle must be on a 8% grade or greater hill. † Gear selection matches vehicle uphill direction (i.e., vehicle facing uphill is in forward gear; vehicle back- ing uphill is in R (Reverse) gear).

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 149

WARNING!

There may be situations on minor hills (i.e., less than 8%), with a loaded vehicle, or while pulling a trailer, when the system will not activate and slight rolling may occur. This could cause a collision with another vehicle or object. Always remember the driver is responsible for braking the vehicle.

HSA will work in R (Reverse) and all forward gears when the activation criteria have been met. The system will not activate if the vehicle is placed in N (Neutral) or P (Park).

Towing with HSA HSA will provide assistance when starting on a grade when pulling a trailer.

150 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING!

† If you use a trailer brake controller with your trailer, your trailer brakes may be activated and deactivated with the brake switch. If so, when the brake pedal is released there may not be enough brake pressure to hold the vehicle and trailer on a hill and this could cause a collision with another vehicle or object behind you. In order to avoid rolling down the hill while resuming acceleration, manually activate the trailer brake prior to releas- ing the brake pedal. Always remember the driver is responsible for braking the vehicle. † HSA is not a parking brake. If you stop the vehicle on a hill without putting the transmission in P (Park) and using the parking brake, it will roll down the hill and could cause a collision with another vehicle or object. Always remember to use the parking brake while parking on a hill, and that the driver is responsible for braking the vehicle.

HSA Off If you wish to turn off the HSA system, it can be done using the Customer Programmable Features in the Elec- tronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC). Refer to “Elec- tronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in Section 4 of this manual. HDC (Hill Descent Control) (4WD Models with NV245 Two–Speed Transfer Case Only) HDC maintains vehicle speed while descending hills during off-road driving situations and is available in 4
LOW range only. To enable HDC (transfer case must be in 4 LOW range), press the HDC switch. If the HDC switch is pressed when the vehicle is not in 4 LOW range, the light in the switch will flash for 5 seconds and HDC will not be enabled.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 151

and will only activate when the vehicle is descending a hill. It will usually not activate on level ground. The HDC speed may be adjusted by the driver to suit the driving conditions. The speed corresponds to the trans- mission gear selected. † 1st = 1 mph (1.6 km/h) † 2nd = 2.5 mph (4 km/h) † 3rd = 4 mph (6 km/h) † 4th = 5.5 mph (9 km/h) † 5th = 7.5 mph (12 km/h) † Reverse (R) = 1 mph (1.6 km/h) † Neutral (N) = 2.5 mph (4 km/h) † Park (P) — HDC will not function

Hill Descent Switch

When HDC is enabled properly, the message “HILL DESCENT CONTROL” will appear in the EVIC and the light in the switch will be illuminated. HDC will auto- matically apply the brakes to control downhill speed when necessary. HDC has the capability to sense terrain

152 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

HDC also has the capability to sense rough terrain, and will automatically adjust to a slightly slower set speed (about.3 mph (.5 km/h) than normal. HDC operation can be overridden with brake application to slow the vehicle down below the HDC control speed. Conversely, if more speed is desired during HDC control, the accelerator pedal will increase vehicle speed in the usual manner. When either the brake or the accelerator is released, HDC will control the vehicle back to the origi- nal set speed. HDC is intended for low speed off-road driving only. At vehicle speeds above 30 mph (48 km/h), HDC will no longer function. When the vehicle speed drops below 30
mph (48 km/h), HDC function will automatically resume and the vehicle speed will return to the chosen set speed.

WARNING!

HDC is only intended to assist the driver in control- ling vehicle speed when descending hills. The driver must remain attentive to the driving conditions and is responsible for maintaining a safe vehicle speed.

ESP/BAS Warning Lamp and ESP/TCS Indicator Light

The malfunction indicator lamp for the ESP is combined with the BAS indicator. 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 both go out with the engine running.

If the “ESP/BAS Warning Lamp” comes on continuously with the engine running, a mal- function has been detected in either the ESP or the BAS system, or both. 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 to have the problem diagnosed and corrected. NOTE: † 9The 9ESP/TCS Indicator Light9 and the 9ESP/BAS Warning Lamp9 come on momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned ON. † Each time the ignition is turned ON, the ESP System † The ESP Control System will make buzzing or clicking sounds when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop when ESP becomes inactive following the maneuver that caused the ESP activation.

Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a danger- ous gas. Do not run your vehicle in the garage while training the transceiver. Exhaust gas can cause seri- ous injury or death.

Programming HomeLinkT

Before You Begin If you have not trained any of the HomeLinkt buttons, erase all channels before you begin training. To do this, press and hold the two outside buttons for 20
seconds. The EVIC will display “CLEARING CHAN- NELS.” Release the buttons when the EVIC message states “CHANNELS CLEARED.”

It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLinkt for more efficient training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal. Your vehicle should be parked outside of the garage while training. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position. 2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches (3–8 cm) from the HomeLinkt buttons while keeping the EVIC display in view. For optimal training, point the battery end of the hand- held transmitter away from the HomeLinkt. 3. Simultaneously press and hold both the chosen HomeLinkt button and the hand-held transmitter button until the EVIC display changes from “CHANNEL # TRAINING” to “CHANNEL # TRAINED.”

Then release both the HomeLinkt and hand-held trans- mitter buttons. If the EVIC display states “DID NOT TRAIN” repeat Step 3. If the signal is too weak, replace the battery in the original hand-held transmitter. It may take up to 30 seconds, or longer in rare cases. The garage door may open & 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. 4. Press and hold the just-trained HomeLinkt button. If the channel has been trained, the EVIC display will now state “CHANNEL # TRANSMIT.”
