A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS The keys for your new vehicle are enclosed in a plastic bag with the key code number on it. If you received your keys without the bag, ask your authorized dealer to give you the number . The key code can also be obtained by your authorized dealer from your vehicle invoice.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder If the driver’s door is opened when the key is in the ignition and not turned to the ON position, a chime will sound to remind you to remove the key . CAUTION! Always remove the key from the ignition, and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
If the SKIS indicator light comes on during normal vehicle operation (it has been running for longer than 10 seconds) a fault has been detected in the electronics and the vehicle should be serviced as soon as possible. NOTE: • The Sentry Key Immobilizer System is not compatible with r emote starting systems.
consists of programming a blank key to the vehicle electronics. A blank key is one which has never been programmed. NOTE: When having the Sentry Key System serviced, bring all vehicle keys to the dealer . Customer Key Programming Y ou can program new keys to the system if you have two valid keys by doing the following: 1.
ILLUMINA TED ENTR Y The interior lights come on when you open any door . They will remain on for about 30 seconds after all doors are closed then fade to off.
CAUTION! An unlocked vehicle is an invitation to thieves. Always remove the key from the ignition and lock all of the doors when leaving the vehicle unattended. Child Protection Locks The rear doors of your vehicle are equipped with child protection locks.
Power Door Locks A door lock switch is on each front door panel. Press this switch to lock or unlock the doors. If the plunger is down when the door is closed, the door will lock. Ther efore, make sure the keys are not inside the vehicle before closing the door .
Automatic Unlock on Exit Feature — Only A vailable if Auto Lock is Enabled This feature will unlock all the doors when the driver’s door is opened if the vehicle is stopped and in P (Park) or N (Neutral).
NOTE: If desired, the system can be programmed to unlock all doors on the first pr ess of the “Unlock” button. Refer to “Remote Unlock Driver’s Door 1st” in the Personal Settings section of the “Electronic V ehicle Infor- mation Center (EVIC)”, or simply follow these steps: 1.
The panic alarm will stay on for 3 minutes unless you turn it off by pressing the P ANIC button a second time or if the vehicle speed is 15 mph (24 km/h) or greater . NOTE: The interior lights will turn of f when the ignition is switched to the ACC or ON position after the panic alarm is activated.
1. A weak battery in the transmitter . The expected life of the battery is a minimum of three years. 2. Closeness to a radio transmitter such as a radio station tower , airport transmitter , and some mobile or CB radios. T ransmitter Battery Service The r ecommended r eplacement battery is one CR2032 battery .
3. T o r eassemble the transmitter case, snap the two halves together . Make sure ther e is an even “gap” be- tween the two halves. T est transmitter operation. SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED This system monitors the vehicle doors, liftgate, liftgate flipper glass, and ignition for unauthorized operation.
press the “Unlock” button on the remote keyless entry transmitter to disarm the system. The Security Alarm System will not disarm with a manual unlock, either through the lock plunger located on the inside of the door , or through a key in the driver’s door key cylinder .
W ARNING! Driving with the liftgate open can allow poisonous exhaust gases into your vehicle. Y ou and your pas- sengers could be injured by these fumes. Keep the liftgate closed when you are operating the vehicle. Liftgate Flipper Glass The liftgate flipper glass is also unlocked when the liftgate is unlocked.
Once the liftgate flipper glass has been opened, connec- tion to the rear window wiper is interrupted, preventing activation of the rear wiper blade while the flipper glass is open. NOTE: If a power malfunction to the power liftgate latch should occur , an emergency liftgate latch release can be used to open the liftgate.
The power window switches remain active for up to 10 minutes after the ignition switch has been turned off. Opening a vehicle front door will cancel this feature. Auto Down The driver’s window switch has an “Auto Down” fea- ture. Press the window switch past the first detent, release, and the window will go down automatically .
open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur- rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the sunr oof open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting. OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety featur es in your vehicle are the restraint systems.
Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision. Some of the worst injuries happen when people are thrown from the vehicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility of ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking the inside of the vehicle.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Operating Instructions 1. Enter the vehicle and close the door . Sit back and adjust the seat. 2. The seat belt latch plate is above the back of your seat. Grasp the latch plate and pull out the belt. Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to make the belt go around your lap.
3. When the belt is long enough to fit, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.” W ARNING! A belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly . The lap portion could ride too high on your body , possibly causing internal injuries.
4. Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. T o remove slack in the lap portion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. T o loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of sliding under the belt in a collision.
6. T o release the belt, push the red button marked PRESS on the buckle. The belt will automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary , slide the latch plate down the webbing to allow it to retract fully . W ARNING! A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection.
As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will prefer a lower position, and if you ar e taller than average, you’ll prefer a higher position. When you r elease the anchorage, try to move it up or down to make sure that it is locked in position.
W ARNING! • The belt and retractor assembly must be replaced if the seat belt assembly “automatic locking re- tractor” feature or any other seat belt function is not working properly when checked according to the procedures in the Service Manual.
seconds or until the driver’s seat belt is buckled. The Enhanced W arning System (BeltAlert) will be reactivated if the driver’s seat belt is unbuckled for more than 10 seconds and the vehicle speed is greater than 5 mph (8 km/h).
Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt across the thighs and as snug across the hips as possible. Keep the belt low so that it does not come acr oss the abdomen. That way the str ong bones of the hips will take the force if there is a collision.
Driver And Front Passenger Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) This vehicle has airbags for both the driver and right front passenger as a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver’s front airbag is mounted in the steering wheel. The passenger side airbag is mounted in the instrument panel, above the glove compartment.
This vehicle may also be equipped with window bags to protect the driver , front, and rear passengers sitting next to a window . If the vehicle is equipped with window bags, they are located above the side windows. Their covers are also labeled SRS/AIRBAG.
The front airbags have a multi stage inflator design. This allows the airbag to have different rates of inflation that are based on collision severity . Along with the seat belts, front airbags work with the instrument panel knee bol- sters to provide improved protection for the driver and front passenger .
children who do not use child restraints or belt- positioning booster seats should ride properly buckled up in the rear seat. Never allow children to slide the shoulder belt behind them or under their arm.
W ARNING! • Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The airbags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly . In some collisions the airbags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have airbags.

section). If the ORC detects a malfunction in any part of the system, it turns on the “Airbag W arning Light” either momentarily or continuously . A single chime will sound if the light comes on again after initial start up.
objects are placed on the seat, the passenger airbag will not inflate even though the “P AD Indicator Light” is not illuminated. The “P AD Indicator Light” should not be illuminated when teena.

If the front passenger seat is damaged in any way , it should only be serviced by an authorized dealer . If the seat is removed (or even if the seat attachment bolts are loosened or tightened in any way), take the vehicle to an authorized dealer .
airbag gas is vented through the vent holes in the sides of the airbag. In this way , the airbags do not interfere with your control of the vehicle. • The Occupant Classification Module (OCM) is lo- cated beneath the front passenger seat. The OCM classifies the occupant into categories based on the measurements made by the seat weight sensors.
The front passenger seat assembly contains critical com- ponents that affect the fr ont passenger airbag deploy- ment. Correctly functioning front passenger seat compo- nents are critical for the Occupant Classification System (OCS) to properly classify the front passenger and calcu- late the proper airbag deployment.
W ARNING! Unapproved modifications or service procedures to the front passenger seat assembly , its related compo- nents, or seat cover may inadvertently change the airbag deployment in case of a frontal crash. This could result in death or serious injury to the front seat passenger if the vehicle is involved in an acci- dent.
• As the airbags deflate you may see some smoke-like particles. The particles are a normal by-product of the process that generates the nontoxic gas used for airbag inflation. These airborne particles may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, or throat. If you have skin or eye irritation, rinse the area with cool water .
Maintaining Y our Airbag System W ARNING! • Modifications to any part of the airbag system could cause it to fail when you need it. Y ou could be injured if the airbag system is not there to protect you.
data gathered during a complete accident investigation, the electronic data may be used by DaimlerChrysler Corporation and others to learn more about the possible causes of crashes and associated injuries in order to assess and improve vehicle performance.
Data Parameters that May Be Recorded: • Diagnostic tr ouble code(s) and warning lamp status for electronically-contr olled safety systems, including the airbag system • Airbag disable lamp status .
W ARNING! In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby , can become a missile inside the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap can become so great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and others could be badly injured.
W ARNING! • Improper installation can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. It could come loose in a collision. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the manufacturer’s directions ex- actly when installing an infant or child restraint.
cinching latch plate will keep the belt tight, however , any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally and pull it tight if necessary).
Older Children and Child Restraints Children who weigh more than 20 lbs (9 kg) and who are older than one year can ride forward-facing in the vehicle. Forward-facing child seats and convertible child seats used in the forward-facing direction, are for chil- dren who weigh 20 to 40 lbs (9 to 18 kg), and who are older than one year .
LA TCH — Child Seat Anchorage System (Lower Anchors and T ether for CH ildren) Y our vehicle’s rear seat is equipped with the child restraint anchorage system called LA TCH.
Installing the LA TCH-Compatible Child Restraint System W e urge that you carefully follow the directions of the manufacturer when installing your child r estraint. Not all child r estraint systems will be installed as described her e. Again, carefully follow the installation instructions that were provided with the child restraint system.
In addition, ther e are tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located on the back of the seat. Many , but not all restraint systems will be equipped with separate straps on each side, with each having a hook or connector for attachment to the lower anchorage and a means of adjusting the tension in the strap.
W ARNING! Improper installation of a child restraint to the LA TCH anchorages can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint.
to do something more. Disconnect the latch plate from the buckle, turn the buckle around, and insert the latch plate into the buckle again. If you still can’t make the child restraint secure, try a different seating position.
W ARNING! An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap. T ransporting Pets Airbags deploying in the front seat could harm your pet.
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation. This should be considered as a normal part of the break-in and not interpreted as an indication of difficulty . SAFETY TIPS Exhaust Gas W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill.
Safety Checks Y ou Should Make Inside The V ehicle Seat Belts Inspect the belt system periodically , checking for cuts, frays and loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately . Do not disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt assemblies must be replaced after an accident if they have been damaged (bent retractor , torn webbing, etc.
Fluid Leaks Check area under vehicle after overnight parking for fuel, coolant, oil or other fluid leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes are detected, the cause should be located and corrected immediately .

ST ARTING PROCEDURES Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belts. W ARNING! Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather . Interior heat build up may cause serious injury or death.
W ARNING! Never pour fuel or other flammable liquids into the throttle body air inlet opening in an attempt to start the vehicle. This could result in a flash fire causing serious personal injury .
After Starting The idle speed will automatically decrease as the engine warms up. CAUTION! Long periods of engine idling, especially at high engine speeds can cause excessive exhaust tempera- tures which can damage your vehicle. Do not leave your vehicle unattended with the engine running.
TRANSMISSION SHIFTING 5–Speed Automatic T ransmission The electr onically controlled transmission provides a precise shift schedule. The transmission electr onics are self-calibrating; therefore, the first few shifts on a new vehicle, may be somewhat abrupt.
W ARNING! It is dangerous to shift the selector lever out of P (Park) or N (Neutral) if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly on the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly forward or in reverse. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something.
R (Reverse) Shift into this range only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. N (Neutral) No power is transmitted from the engine to the drive axle. When the brakes are released, the vehicle can roll freely . Do not engage in N (Neutral) position while driving except to coast when the vehicle is in danger of skidding (e.
left “D(-)” and hold it there. The transmission will shift to the range from which the vehicle can best be slowed down. Overdrive Operation The overdrive automatic transmission contains an elec- tronically controlled fourth and fifth speed (Overdrive).
a downshift may occur . This is a normal part of the overheat pr otection strategy when operating in the “T ow/Haul” mode. The transmission will downshift from Overdrive to the most desirable gear if the accelerator pedal is fully depressed at vehicle speeds above appr oximately 35 mph (56 km/h).
T orque Converter Clutch A feature designed to improve fuel economy is included in all automatic transmissions. A clutch within the torque converter engages automatically at a calibrated speed at light throttle. It engages at higher speeds under heavier acceleration.
NOTE: The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) and T raction Control (if equipped) should be turned OFF before attempting to rock the vehicle. Refer to Section 3 of this manual. The least amount of accelerator pedal pressur e to main- tain the rocking motion without spinning the wheels or racing the engine is most effective.
and T raction Control, provides resistance to any wheel that is slipping to allow additional torque transfer to wheels with traction. NOTE: The Quadra-T rac I 威 system is not appropriate for conditions where LOW range is recommended. Refer to “Off-Road Driving T ips” in this section.
Because four wheel drive provides impr oved traction, there is a tendency to exceed safe turning and stopping speeds. Do not go faster than road conditions permit. W ARNING! Y ou or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended with the transfer case in the N (Neutral) position without first fully engaging the parking brake.
speed. Additional traction and maximum pulling power for loose, slippery road surfaces only . Do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h). Shifting Procedures 4H It o4L O W W ith the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), key ON or engine running, shift the transmission into N (Neutral), and raise the transfer case T -handle.
LOW Indicator Lamp” in the instrument cluster will flash and go out when the shift is complete. Release the T -handle. NOTE: If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, or a transfer case motor temperature pr otection condition exists, a “CHECK SHIFT PROCEDURES” message will flash from the EVIC (Electronic V ehicle Information Cen- ter).
the EVIC (Electronic V ehicle Information Center). Refer to “Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in Section 4 of this manual. Quadra-Drive 姞 System — If Equipped The optional Quadra-Drive 威 System features three torque transfer couplings.
Before leaving the vehicle parked on a hill, you must make sure the parking brake is fully applied and place the gear selector in the P (Park) position. Make certain the transfer case is in gear . Failure to do so may cause the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury .
T o release the parking brake, pull up slightly , press the center button, then lower the lever completely . Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged before driving. Failure to do so can lead to brake failure. NOTE: Parking brake adjustment and maintenance should be performed by your authorized dealer .
W ARNING! Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will diminish their effectiveness and may lead to an accident. Pumping makes the stopping distance longer . Just press firmly on your brake pedal when you need to slow down or stop.
CAUTION! The Anti-Lock Brake System is subject to possible detrimental effects of electronic interference caused by improperly installed after-market radios or tele- phones. NOTE: During severe braking conditions, a pulsing sensation may occur and a clicking noise will be heard.
build up between the tire tread and the road. This hydroplaning action can cause loss of traction, braking ability , and control. • After going through deep water or a car wash, brakes may become wet, resulting in decreased performance and unpredictable braking action.
OFF-ROAD DRIVING TIPS NOTE: Prior to off-r oad driving, remove the front air dam to prevent damage. The front air dam is attached to the lower front fascia with quarter turn fasteners, and can be removed by hand. When T o Use 4WD LOW Range — If Equipped When off-road driving, shift to 4WD LOW for additional traction.
and/or the flow rate is reduced. If you must cr oss flowing water avoid depths in excess of 9 inches. The flowing water can erode the streambed causing your vehicle to sink into deeper water . Determine exit point(s) that are downstream of your entry point to allow for drifting.
If you stall or begin to lose headway while climbing a steep hill, allow your vehicle to come to a stop and immediately apply the brakes. Restart the engine and shift to R (Reverse). Back slowly down the hill allowing the compression braking of the engine to help regulate your speed.
After Driving Off-Road Off-r oad operation puts more stress on your vehicle than does most on-road driving. After going off-r oad it is always a good idea to check for damage. That way you can get any problems taken care of right away and have your vehicle ready when you need it.
MUL TI DISPLACEMENT SYSTEM (MDS) - 5.7L Engine Only This feature offers improved fuel economy by shutting off four of the engine’s eight cylinders during light load and cruise conditions. The system is automatic with no driver inputs or additional driving skills requir ed.

W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, af fect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle.
2. Economy— Improper inflation pr essures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tire tread. These abnormal wear patterns will r educe tread life r esulting in a need for earlier tir e r eplacement. Under inflation also increases tire r olling resistance and results in higher fuel consump- tion.
more often if subject to a wide range of outdoor tempera- tures, as tire pressures vary with temperature changes. Inflation pressur es specified on the label ar e always “Cold Inflation Pressure.
Radial-Ply Tires W ARNING! Combining radial ply tires with other types of tires on your vehicle will cause your vehicle to handle poorly . The instability could cause an accident. Al- ways use radial tires in sets of four . Never combine them with other types of tires.
T read Wear Indicators These indicators are narrow strips 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) thick and are found in the tread pattern grooves. When the tread pattern is worn down to these treadwear indicators, the tires should be replaced. Overloading your vehicle, long trips in very hot weather , and driving on bad roads may result in greater wear .
W ARNING! • Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combinations of un- approved tires and wheels may change suspension dimensions and performance characteristics, resulting in changes to steering, handling, and braking of your vehicle.
T ires may also cause the vehicle to pull left or right. Alignment will not correct this problem. See your dealer for proper diagnosis of the problem. Improper alignment will not normally cause vehicle vibration, which may be a result of tire and wheel out-of-balance.

CAUTION! The TPM system has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPM system pressures have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system operation or sen- sor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.
General Information This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and RSS 210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following conditions: • This device may not cause harmful interference. • This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired op- eration.
TIRE ROT A TION RECOMMENDA TIONS T ires on the front and r ear axles of vehicles operate at differ ent loads and perform different steering, handling, and braking functions. For these r easons, they wear at unequal rates, and develop irregular wear patterns.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS 3.7/4.7L Engines (If Equipped) All engines (except 5.7L engines) are de- signed to meet all emissions regulations and pr ovide excellent fuel economy and performance when using high quality un- leaded “regular” gasoline having an oc- tane rating of 87.
Over 40 auto manufacturer’s world wide have issued and endorsed consistent gasoline specifications (the W orld- wide Fuel Charter , WWFC) to define fuel properties necessary to deliver enhanced emissions, performance, and durability for your vehicle.
MMT In Gasoline MMT is a manganese containing metallic additive that is blended into some gasoline to increase octane. Gasoline blended with MMT provides no performance advantage beyond gasoline of the same octane number without MMT . Gasoline blended with MMT reduces spark plug life and reduces emission system performance in some vehicles.
• An out-of-tune engine, or certain fuel or ignition malfunctions, can cause the catalytic converter to overheat. If you notice a pungent burning odor or some light smoke, your engine may be out of tune or malfunctioning and may requir e immediate service.
• Guard against carbon monoxide with proper mainte- nance. Have the exhaust system inspected every time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal conditions repair ed promptly .
CAUTION! Damage to the fuel system or emission control system could result from using an improper fuel cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap could let impurities into the fuel system. Also, a poorly fitting after- market cap can cause the MIL (Malfunction Indica- tor Light) to illuminate, due to fuel vapors escaping from the system.
W ARNING! • Remove the fuel cap (gas cap) slowly to prevent fuel spray from the filler neck which may cause injury . • The volatility of some gasoline may cause a buildup of pressure in the fuel tank that may increase while you drive. This pressure can result in a spray of gasoline and/or vapors when the cap is removed from a hot vehicle.
manual. When your vehicle is used for trailer towing, never exceed the gross axle weight rating (GA WR) by the addition of: • The tongue weight of the trailer . • The weight of any other type of cargo or equipment put in or on your vehicle. W ARNING! Improper towing can lead to an injury accident.
• Make certain that the load is secured in the trailer and will not shift during travel. • It is recommended that any hitches installed on your vehicle be factory installed, or installed by a dealer using factory approved parts.
T railer T ow Wiring The T railer T ow Package includes a 4 and 7 pin wiring harness located at the rear underbody of the vehicle. NOTE: Connect trailer lighting and brakes using factory harnesses only . Do not cut or splice wiring to the brake circuits.
