DOOR LOCKS Manual Door Locks All the doors can be “manually” locked from the inside by pushing down the door lock plunger , located at the rear of the door . Both front doors may be opened fr om the inside with the door lock plunger in the down or locked position.
Power Door Locks V ehicles equipped with power door locks can be locked or unlocked from inside by either the use of the door lock switches located on the front doors or by pr essing the LOCK or UNLOCK buttons on the Remote Keyless Entry key fob.
As a safety feature the doors will not lock when using the door lock switches during the following conditions: • The driver’s door is open while the key is in the ignition. Automatic Door Locks If this feature is enabled, your door locks will lock automatically when the vehicle’s speed exceeds 15 mph (24 km/h).
• The doors of the vehicle must be locked automatically by the Automatic Door Lock feature. • The vehicle is in P (Park) and the ignition switch is in any key position . This feature will not operate if any of the conditions above are not met or following has occurr ed: • Any manual operation of a door lock switch has occurred.
Child Protection Door Lock T o provide a safer envir onment for children riding in the rear seat, the r ear doors of your vehicle have the child- protection door lock system. T o use the system, open each rear door and slide the control UP to engage the locks and DOWN to disengage the child-protection locks.
W ARNING! A void trapping anyone in a vehicle in a collision. Remember that the rear doors can only be opened from the outside when the child protection locks are engaged. NOTE: After setting the child protection door lock system, always test the door from the inside to make certain it is in the desired position.
NOTE: The line of transmission must not be blocked with metal objects. T o unlock the doors: Press and r elease the UNLOCK button on the key fob once to unlock only the driver’s door or twice to unlock all the doors. When the UNLOCK button is pressed, the illuminated entry will initiate, and the parking lights will flash on twice.
Horn Chirp Programming The horn chirp feature will be shipped fr om the assembly plants activated. If desired this featur e can be disabled by using the following procedur e: 1. Press and hold the LOCK button on the key fob. 2. After holding the LOCK button for four seconds, also press the P ANIC button within 6 seconds.

T o Disarm the System: Use the Keyless Entry transmitter to unlock the doors. If something has triggered the system in your absence, the horn will sound three times when you unlock the doors. Check the vehicle for tampering. The security system will also disarm, if the vehicle is started with a programmed Sentry Key .
WINDOWS Power Windows The control on the left fr ont door has up-down switches that give you finger tip control of all four power win- dows. There is a single opening and closing switch on the passenger doors for passenger window control.
ignition is turned OFF or the driver’s door is opened. This feature can be turned of f by your authorized dealer . NOTE: The Power Accessory Delay feature will allow the power windows to operate for ten minutes after the ignition it turned OFF . Auto Down The driver’s window switch has an Auto Down feature.
Sliding Rear Window A locking device in the center of the window helps to prevent entry fr om the rear of the vehicle. Squeeze the lock to release the window . WIND BUFFETING W ind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressur e on the ears or a helicopter type sound in the ears.
Please pay close attention to the information in this section. It tells you how to use your restraint system properly to keep you and your passengers as safe as possible. W ARNING! In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not properly buck- led up.
W ARNING! It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
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 the front seat, next to your arm in the rear seat. Grasp the latch plate and pull out the belt.
W ARNING! • A belt buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly . The lap portion could ride too high on your body , possibly causing internal injuries. Always buckle your belt into the buckle nearest you. • A belt that is too loose will not protect you as well.
W ARNING! • A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of internal injury in a collision. The belt forces won’t be at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across your abdomen. Always wear the lap belt as low as pos- sible and keep it snug. • A twisted belt can’t do its job as well.
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage In the front r ow outboard seats, the shoulder belt can be adjusted upward or downwar d to help position the belt away from your neck. Push in on the anchorage r elease button to release the anchorage, and then move it up or down to the position that serves you best.
Automatic Locking Mode (if equipped) T o convert from the normal emer gency locking mode to the automatic locking mode, grasp the shoulder belt portion and pull all of the webbing out of the retractor .
The pretensioners ar e triggered by the Occupant Re- straint Controller (ORC). Like the airbags, the pr etension- ers are single use items. After a collision that is severe enough to deploy the airbags and pretensioners, both must be replaced.
3. W ithin 60 seconds of starting the vehicle, unbuckle and then re-buckle the driver’s seat belt at least thr ee times within 10 seconds, ending with the seat belt buckled. 4. T urn off the engine. A single chime will sound to signify that you have successfully completed the pro- gramming.
W ARNING! Using a seat belt extender when not needed can increase the risk of injury in a collision. Only use the seat belt extender when the lap belt is not long enough when it is worn low and snug, and in the recommended seating positions. Remove and store the extender when not needed.
the instrument panel, above the glove compartment. The words SRS/AIRBAG ar e embossed on the airbag covers. NOTE: The front airbags ar e certified to the Federal regulations that allow less for ceful deployment. The front airbags have a multistage inflator design.
Along with the seat belts, front airbags work with the instrument panel knee bolsters to pr ovide improved protection for the driver and fr ont passenger . W indow bags also work with seat belts to improve occupant protection. The seat belts are designed to pr otect you in many types of collisions.
2. All occupants should use their lap and shoulder belts properly . 3. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved back as far as practical to allow the airbag room to inflate. 4. If your vehicle has window bags, do not lean against the door or window , airbags will inflate forcefully into the space between you and the door .
Air Bag System Components The airbag system consists of the following: • Occupant Restraint Controller • Side Remote Acceleration Sensors (If Equipped) • Airbag W arning Light • Driver Airbag .
The ORC also monitors the readiness of the electr onic parts of the system whenever the ignition switch is in the ST AR T or RUN positions. These include all of the items listed above except the steering wheel and column, and knee bolsters.
NOTE: Children 12 years and under should always ride buckled up in a rear seat in an appr opriate child restraint. • The Passenger Airbag Disable (P AD) Indicator Light (an amber light located in the center of the instrument panel) tells the driver and front passenger when the front passenger airbag is turned of f.
For almost all properly installed r ear facing child re- straints, the P AD indicator light will be illuminated indicating that the front passenger airbag is turned of f and will not inflate.
the OCS has classified the occupant of the seat as an adult. An adult occupant needs to sit in a normal position (with their feet on or near the floor) in order to be properly classified. Reclining the seat back too far may change how an occupant is classified by the OCS.
Indicator Light and the Airbag W arning Light. Once the lodged object is removed, the fault will be automatically cleared after a short period of time. • The Driver and Passenger Airbag/Inflator Units are located in the center of the steering wheel and the right side of the instrument panel.
or a weight less than the predetermined thr eshold, the ORC will not illuminate the P AD indicator light even though the airbag is turned OFF . • Y our vehicle has four W eight Sensors located within the seat structur e or between the seat tracks and cushion frame.
• Do not modify the front seat center console or center position seat in any way . • Do not use prior or future model year seat covers not designated for the specific model being repair ed. Al- ways use the correct seat cover specified for the vehicle.
NOTE: A frontal collision that is not severe enough to need airbag protection will not activate the system. This does not mean something is wrong with the airbag system.
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.
• The light remains on or flickers after the 6 to 8 second interval. • The light flickers or comes on and remains on while driving. NOTE: If the speedometer , tachometer or any engine related gauges ar e not working, the airbag control mod- ule may also be disabled.
W ARNING! Whenever an airbag is turned off, even a lap/ shoulder belted passenger may hit their head, neck, or chest on the dashboard (instrument panel) or windshield in a crash. This may result in serious injury or death. NOTE: The Passenger Airbag On/Off Switch is not available in the Quad Cab.
T o Shut Off the Passenger Frontal Airbag Place the ignition key in the Passenger Airbag On/Off Switch, push the key in and turn clockwise, and remove the key from the switch.

• The infant carrier is only used rearwar d-facing in the vehicle. It is recommended for childr en who weigh up to about 20 lbs (9 kg). ⬙ Convertible ⬙ child seats can be used either rearwar d-facing or forward-facing in the vehicle.
Children T oo Large for Booster Seats • Children who ar e large enough to wear the shoulder belt comfortably , and whose legs are long enough to bend over the front of the seat when their back is against the seat back should use the lap/shoulder belt in a rear seat.
Here ar e some tips for getting the most out of your child restraint: • Before buying any r estraint system, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets all applicable Safety Standards. The manufactur er recommends that you try a child restraint in the vehicle seats wher e you will use it before you buy it.
provides for the installation of the child r estraint without using the vehicle’s seat belts, instead securing the child restraint using lower anchorages and upper tether straps from the child r estraint to the vehicle structure. LA TCH- compatible child restraint systems ar e now available.
the vehicle’s seat belt for the outboard position, but you must use the vehicle’s seat belt at the center position. If your child restraints ar e not LA TCH compatible, you can only install the child restraints using the vehicle’s seat belts. Please refer to the next section for typical installation instructions.
of the seat cushion where it meets the seat back, and ar e just visible when you lean into the vehicle to install the child restraint. Y ou will easily feel them if you run your finger along the intersection of the seatback and seat cushion surfaces.
Installing Child Restraints Using the V ehicle Seat Belt The passenger seat belts are equipped with either cinch- ing latch plates or automatic locking retractors, which ar e designed to keep the lap portion tight around the child restraint so that it should not be necessary to use a locking clip.
Child Restraint T ether Anchor The Club Cab model has two routing straps located behind each of the rear outboar d seat- ing positions. The tether anchor itself is located in the center of vehicle, in between the two seating positions.
T ether Strap at the Front Passenger Seat (Club Cab) 1. Route the child restraint tether strap up and over the front passenger seat back and under the head r estraint. 2. Connect the tether strap to the lower anchor . 3. Remove the slack in the tether strap so that it is pulled tight.
T ether Straps at the Rear Passenger Seat (Club Cab) 1. Route the child restraint tether strap through the routing loop, located dir ectly behind the child restraint. The routing loops ar e located behind the flip-down door on the cab back panel (padded bolster).
T ether Straps at the Rear Passenger Seat (Quad Cab) 1. Route the child restraint tether strap under the head restraint for the outboar d seating positions, and then through the anchor strap outer loop (webbing material loop), located directly behind the child r estraint.

W ARNING! An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to seat failure and injury to the child. In a collision, the seat could come loose and allow the child to crash into the inside of the vehicle or other passengers, or even be thrown from the vehicle.
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles of operation. This is a normal part of the break-in and is not an indication of dif ficulty . SAFETY TIPS Exhaust System W ARNING! Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, an ex- tremely toxic gas that by itself is colorless and odorless.
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 the area under vehicle after overnight parking for fuel, water , oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes are detected, the cause should be located and corrected.

ST ARTING PROCEDURES The starter should not be operated for more than 15 second intervals. W aiting a few seconds between such intervals will protect the starter fr om overheating. Manual T ransmission Apply the parking brake, place the gearshift control lever in NEUTRAL and depress clutch pedal to the floor befor e starting the vehicle.
Normal Starting Normal starting of either a warm or cold engine is obtained without pumping or depressing the accelerator pedal. T urn the key to the ST AR T position and release when the engine starts. If the engine fails to start within 10 seconds, turn the key to the OFF position, wait 5 seconds, then repeat the starting pr ocedure.
W ARNING! Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid into the throttle body air inlet opening in an attempt to start the vehicle. This could result in flash fire causing serious personal injury . After Starting The idle speed is automatically controlled on fuel injected engines and will decrease as the engine warms up.
W ARNING! Remember to disconnect the cord before driving. Damage to the 1 10-1 15 volt electrical cord could cause electrocution. AUTOMA TIC TRANSMISSION Automatic T ransmission The electronic PRNDL on the instrument cluster indicates the transmission gear selected.
W ARNING! Y our vehicle could move and injure you and others if it is not completely in P (Park). Check by trying to move the gearshift lever back and forth without first pulling the lever toward you, after you have set it in P (Park). Make sure it is in Park before leaving the vehicle.
“N” Neutral Shift to Neutral when vehicle is standing for prolonged periods with engine running. Engine may be started in this range. Set the parking brake if you must leave the vehicle.

performance and reduce the potential for transmission overheating or failur e due to excessive shifting. When operating in “TOW/HAUL” mode, 5th gear (if equipped) is disabled and 2-3 and 3-4 shift patterns are modified.
transmission into gear may seem sluggish. This is due to the fluid partially draining from the tor que converter into the transmission. This condition is normal and will not cause damage to the transmission. The torque converter will refill within five seconds of shifting fr om Park into any other gear position.
Never drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal, or attempt to hold the vehicle on a hill with the clutch pedal partially engaged, as this will cause abnormal wear on the clutch. Recommended Shift Speeds T o use your manual transmission for fuel economy it should be upshifted as listed below .
Downshifting Moving from a high gear down to a lower gear is recommended to pr eserve brakes when driving down steep hills. In addition, downshifting at the right time provides better acceleration when you desir e to resume speed. For acceleration at speeds less than 20 mph (30 km/h), 2nd gear is recommended.
position - see Shifting Procedur e section for specific shifting instructions. The 4HI and 4LO positions ar e designed for loose, slippery road surfaces only . Driving in the 4HI and 4LO positions on dry hard surfaced r oads may cause increased tir e wear and damage to the driv- eline components.
or illuminates during driving, it means that the 4WD system is not functioning properly and that service is requir ed. W ARNING! Always engage the parking brake when powering down the vehicle if the ⴖ SVC 4WD ⴖ light is illumi- nated. Not engaging the parking brake may allow the vehicle to roll which may cause personal injury .
W ARNING! Y ou or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended with the transfer case in the Neutral (N) position without first fully engaging the parking brake.
Shifting Procedure - NV233 T ransfer Case NOTE: If any of the requir ements to select a new transfer case position have not been met, the transfer case will not shift.
ON. At this time, reduce speed and stop spinning the wheels to complete the shift. There may be a delay up to 10 seconds for the shift to complete after the wheels have stopped spinning. 4HI to 4LO or 4LO to 4HI NOTE: When shifting into or out of 4LO some gear noise may be heard.
NOTE: If steps 1 or 2 of either the Preferr ed or Alternate Procedur e are not satisfied prior to attempting the shift or if they no longer are being met while the shift attempt is in process then the indicator light will flash and the current transfer case position will be maintained.
When additional traction is requir ed, the 4HI and 4LO positions can be used to lock the front and r ear drive- shafts together through the transfer case inter -axle differ- ential and force the fr ont and rear wheels to r otate at the same speed. This is accomplished by rotating the 4WD Control Switch to these positions.
The SER VICE 4WD warning light monitors the electric shift 4WD system. If this light remains on after engine start up or illuminates during driving, it means that the 4WD system is not functioning properly and that service is requir ed.
W ARNING! Y ou or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended with the transfer case in the Neutral (N) position without first fully engaging the parking brake.
Shifting Procedure - NV244 T ransfer Case NOTE: If any of the requir ements to select a new transfer case position have not been met, the transfer case will not shift.
spinning the wheels to complete the shift. There may be a delay up to 10 seconds for the shift to complete after the wheels have stopped spinning. NOTE: Delayed shifting out of the 4HI position may be experienced due to uneven tire wear , low tire pr essure, or excessive loading.
4. After the desired position indicator light is ON (not flashing), shift transmission back into gear (release clutch on manual transmissions). NOTE: If steps 1 or 2 of either the Preferr ed or Altern.
Care should be taken to avoid sudden accelerations when both rear wheels ar e on a slippery surface. This could cause both rear wheels to spin, and allow the vehicle to slide sideways on the crowned surface of a r oad or in a turn. P ARKING BRAKE The foot operated parking brake is positioned below the lower left corner of the instrument panel.
NOTE: The instrument cluster brake warning light indicates only that the parking brake is applied. Y ou must be sure the parking brake is fully applied befor e leaving the vehicle. When parking on a hill, turn the front wheels towar d the curb on a downhill grade and away from the curb on an uphill grade.
BRAKE SYSTEM In the event power assist is lost for any reason (for example, repeated brake applications with the engine off), the brakes will still function. The ef fort requir ed to brake the vehicle will be significantly increased over that requir ed with the power system operating.
Four-Wheel Anti-Lock Brake System — If Equipped This Anti-Lock Brake System is designed to aid the driver in maintaining vehicle control under adverse braking conditions. The system operates with a separate com- puter to modulate hydraulic pressur e to prevent wheel lock-up and help avoid skidding on slippery surfaces.
W ARNING! • Anti-lock system (ABS) cannot prevent the natu- ral laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking or steering efficiency be- yond that afforded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded.
ROCKING THE VEHICLE If vehicle becomes stuck in snow , sand, or mud, it can often be moved by a rocking motion. Move the gear selector rhythmically between FIRST and REVERSE, while applying slight pressur e to the accelerator .
• European Metric tir e sizing is based on European design standards. T ires designed to this standar d have the tire size molded into the sidewall beginning with the section width. The letter ⬙ P ⬙ is absent from this tir e size designation. Example: 215/65R15 96H • L T(Light T ruck)-Metric tire sizing is based on U.
T ire Sizing Chart EXAMPLE: Size Designation: P = Passenger car tire size based on U.S. design standar ds ⴖ ....blank.... ⴖ = Passenger car tire based on Eur opean design standards LT = Light T ruck tire based on U.
EXAMPLE: Service Description: 95 = Load Index —A numerical code associated with the maximum load a tire can carry . H = Speed Symbol —A symbol indicating the range of speeds at which a tire can carry a load corresponding to its load index under certain operating conditions.
Tire Identification Number (TIN) The TIN may be found on one or both sides of the tire however the date code may only be on one side. T ires with white sidewalls will have the full TIN including date code located on the white sidewall side of the tire.
Tire Loading and T ire Pressure T ire Placard Location NOTE: The proper cold tir e inflation pressur e for pas- senger cars is listed on either the face of the driver’s door or the driver’s side “B” pillar .
T ire and Loading Information Placard This placard tells you important information about the: 1) number of people that can be carried in the vehicle 2) the total weight your vehicle can carry 3) the tire size designed for your vehicle 4) the cold tire inflation pr essures for the front, r ear and spare tir es.
combined weight of occupants, cargo/luggage and trailer tongue weight (if applicable) should never exceed the weight refer enced here. Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit 1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occu- pants and cargo should never exceed XXX pounds” on your vehicle’s placard.
232 ST ARTING AND OPERA TING.
W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect 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 tir e tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce tr ead life resulting in a need for earlier tire r eplacement. Underinflation also increases tir e rolling r esistance and results in higher fuel consumption.
check tire pr essure. Do not make a visual judgement when determining proper inflation. Radial tir es may look properly inflated even when they ar e under inflated. CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap–if equipped.
T ire Pressures for High Speed Operation The manufacturer advocates driving at safe speeds within posted speed limits. Where speed limits or condi- tions are such that the vehicle can be driven at high speeds, maintaining correct tir e inflation pressur e is very important.
Compact Spare Tire — If Equipped The compact spare is for temporary emer gency use with radial tires. It is engineer ed to be used on your style vehicle only . Since this tire has limited tread life, the original tire should be r epaired (or r eplaced) and rein- stalled at the first opportunity .
Limited Use Spare — If Equipped The limited use spare tir e is for temporary emergency use on your vehicle. This tire is identified by a limited use spare tir e warning label located on the limited use spare tire and wheel assembly . This tire may look like the original equipped tire on the fr ont or rear axle of your vehicle, but it is not.
W ARNING! Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces gener- ated by excessive wheel speeds may cause tire dam- age or failure. A tire could explode and injure someone. Do not spin your vehicle’s wheels faster than 35 mph (55 km/h) when you are stuck.
Replacement Tires The tires on your new vehicle pr ovide a balance of many characteristics. They should be inspected regularly for wear and correct cold tir e inflation pressur e.
CAUTION! Replacing original tires with tires of a different size may result in false speedometer and odometer read- ings. Alignment And Balance Poor suspension alignment may result in: • Fast tire wear . • Uneven tire wear , such as feathering and one-sided wear .
TIRE CHAINS Use “Class S” chains only on the rear tir es on Dakota trucks, or other traction aids that meet SAE T ype “S” specifications. NOTE: Chains must be the proper size for the vehicle, as recommended by the chain manufactur er .
These cautions apply to all chain traction devices, includ- ing link and cable (radial) chains. T ire chain use is permitted only on the rear tir es of Dakota trucks. NOTE: The use of class “S” chains is permitted on Dakotas with P245/70R16 tires.
TIRE ROT A TION RECOMMENDA TIONS T ires on the front and r ear axles of vehicles operate at differ ent loads and perform differ ent steering, driving, and braking functions. For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates and tend to develop irregular wear pat- terns.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS All engines are designed to meet all emis- sions regulations and pr ovide excellent fuel economy and performance when us- ing high quality unleaded “regular” gaso- line having an octane rating of 87. The routine use of pr emium gasoline is not recommended.
Reformulated Gasoline Many areas of the country r equire the use of cleaner burning gasoline referr ed to as “Reformulated Gasoline.” Reformulated gasolines contain oxygenates, and are spe- cifically blended to reduce vehicle emissions and im- prove air quality .
It is even more important to look for gasolines without MMT in Canada because MMT can be used at levels higher than allowed in the United States. MMT is pro- hibited in Federal and California reformulated gasolines. Materials Added T o Fuel All gasolines sold in the United States are r equired to contain effective deter gent additives.
CAUTION! T o avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top off” the fuel tank after filling. NOTE: When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank is full. NOTE: T ighten the gas cap until you hear a “clicking” sound. This is an indication that the gas cap is properly tightened.
CAUTION! Damage to the fuel system or emission control system could result from using an improper fuel tank filler tube cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap could let impurities into the fuel system. W ARNING! • Never allow any lit smoking materials near the vehicles while removing the cap or filling the tank.
• When pulling a heavy load or driving a fully loaded vehicle when the humidity is low and the temperature is high, use a premium unleaded fuel to help pr event spark knock. If spark knock persists, lighten the load, or engine piston damage may result.
• Guard against carbon monoxide with pr oper mainte- nance. Have the exhaust system inspected every time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal conditions repair ed promptly .
A scorching odor may be detected if you continue to r un a malfunctioning engine. The odor may indicate severe and abnormal catalyst overheating. If this occurs, the vehicle should be stopped, the engine shut off and the vehicle allowed to cool. Service, including a tune-up to manufacturer’s specifications should be obtained imme- diately .
Rating (GA WR) front and r ear , and V ehicle Identification Number (VIN). A Month-Day-Hour (MDH) number is included on this label and shows the Month, Day , and Hour of manufacture. The bar code that appears on the bottom of the label is your V ehicle Identification Number (VIN).
Inflation Pressure (Cold) This is the cold tire inflation pr essure for your vehicle for all loading conditions up to full GA WR. Curb Weight The curb weight of a vehicle is defined as the total weight of the vehicle with all fluids, including vehicle fuel, at full capacity conditions, and with no occupants or cargo loaded into the vehicle.
W ARNING! Do not load your vehicle any heavier than the GVWR or the maximum front and rear GA WR. If you do, parts on your vehicle can break, or it can change the way your vehicle handles. This could cause you to lose control. Also, overloading can shorten the life of your vehicle.
TRAILER TOWING T o maintain warranty coverage, follow the requir ements and recommendations in this manual concerning ve- hicles used for trailer towing.
Consider the following items when computing the weight on the rear axle: • The tongue weight of the trailer . • The weight of any other type of cargo or equipment put in or on your vehicle. NOTE: Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle.
• Do not interconnect the hydraulic brake system of your vehicle with that of the trailer . This could cause inadequate braking and possible personal injury . • T railer brakes are r ecommended for trailers over 1,000 lbs (454 kg) and requir ed for trailers in excess of 2,000 lbs.
T ongue W eight is the weight placed on the vehicle’s trailer hitch by the trailer . Always load a trailer with 60% to 65% of the weight in the front of the trailer . This places 10% to 15% of the GTW on the tow hitch of your vehicle. T railer sway control and equalizing hitch ar e required for tongue weights above 350 lbs.
NOTE: When towing a trailer , the following require- ments must be adhered to: • GCWR must not be exceeded • T otal weight must be distributed between the tow vehicle and the trailer such that the following four (4) ratings are not exceeded: 1. GVWR 2.
If you regularly pull a trailer , regar dless of the trailer size, stop and turn signals on the trailer are r ecommended for motoring safety . When the additional trailer lighting is connected to the vehicle, the flasher does not provide an indication of outside lamp/bulb failure.
The electrical connections are all complete to the vehicle but you must mate the harness to a trailer connector . Refer to the following illustrations.
• Highway Driving Reduce speed. • Air Conditioning T urn off temporarily . • See Cooling System Operating information in the Maintenance section of this manual for more informa- tion.
CAUTION! Using this vehicle for snowplow applications can cause damage to the vehicle. W ARNING! Attaching a snowplow to this vehicle could ad- versely affect performance of the airbag system in an accident. Do not expect that the airbag will perform as described earlier in this manual RECREA TIONAL TOWING (BEHIND MOTORHOME, ETC.
Recreational T owing 4WD Models CAUTION! Internal damage to the transfer case will occur if a front or rear wheel lift is used when recreational towing. NOTE: Both the NV233 and NV244 HD transfer cases must be shifted into Neutral (N) for recr eational towing.
6. Using the point of a ballpoint pen or similar object, depress the r ecessed transfer case Neutral (N) button for 4 seconds. 7. After shift is completed and the Neutral (N) light comes on release Neutral (N) button. 8. Start engine. 9. Shift automatic transmission into Reverse (R).
CAUTION! Damage to the transmission may occur if the trans- mission is shifted into Park (P) with the transfer case in Neutral (N) and the engine RUNNING. W ith the transfer case in Neutral (N) ensure that the engine is OFF prior to shifting the transmission into Park (P).
depressing the Neutral (N) button or ar e no longer met during the 1 second time, then all of the mode position indicator lights will flash continuously until all requir e- ments are met or until the Neutral (N) button is r eleased. NOTE: The ignition key must be ON for a shift to take place and for the position indicator lights to be operable.

ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM — OBD II Y our vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated onboard diagnostic system called OBD II. This system monitors the performance of the emissions, engine, and automatic transmission control systems.
Loose Fuel Filler Cap Message After fuel is added, the vehicle diagnostic system can determine if the fuel filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged. A loose fuel filler cap message will be displayed in the instrument cluster . T ighten the gas cap until a ⬙ clicking ⬙ sound is heard.
Y our vehicle has a simple ignition key actuated test which you can use prior to going to the test station. T o check if your vehicle’s OBD system is ready , you must do the following: 1. Insert your ignition key into the ignition switch. 2. T urn the ignition to the ON position, but do not crank or start the engine.
vehicle serviced before going to the I/M station. The I/M station can fail your vehicle because the MIL symbol is on with the engine running. REPLACEMENT P ARTS Use of genuine Mopar 威 parts for normal/scheduled maintenance and repairs is highly r ecommended to in- sure the designed performance.
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES The pages that follow contain the required maintenance services determined by the engineers who designed your vehicle. Besides the maintenance items for which there ar e fixed maintenance intervals, there ar e other items that should operate satisfactorily without periodic maintenance.
7. Add oil only if the level is below the “SAFE” range (at or below the “ADD” mark) on the engine oil level indicator (dipstick). Adding one quart of oil when the reading is at the ADD mark will result in a r eading at the top of the SAFE zone on these engines.
• More than 50% of your driving is at sustained high speeds during hot weather , above 90°F (32°C). • T railer towing, T axi, Police or delivery service (com- mercial service). • Off-Road or desert operation. • If equipped for and operating with E-85 (ethanol) fuel.
Engine Oil Identification (API) Symbol There is a symbol to aid you in selecting the pr oper engine oil. This symbol means that the oil has been certified by the American Petroleum Institute (API). The manufacture only r ecommends API Certified engine oils that meet the requir ements of DaimlerChrysler Material Stan- dard MS-6395.
Materials Added to Engine Oils The manufacture str ongly recommends against the addi- tion of any additives (other than leak detection dyes) to the engine oil. Engine oil is an engineered pr oduct and it’s performance may be impaired by supplemental ad- ditives.
Belts should be inspected for evidence of cuts, cracks, glazing, or frayed cords and r eplaced if there is indication of damage which could result in belt failur e. Low gen- erator belt tension can cause battery failure. Also check belt routing to make sur e there is no interfer - ence between the belts and other engine components.
W ARNING! The air cleaner can provide a measure of protection in the case of engine backfire. Do not remove the air cleaner unless such removal is necessary for repair or maintenance. Make sure that no one is near the engine compartment before starting the vehicle with the air cleaner removed.
CAUTION! Damage to the catalytic converter can result if your vehicle is not kept in proper operating condition. In the event of engine malfunction, particularly involv- ing engine misfire or other apparent loss of perfor- mance, have your vehicle serviced promptly .
T o minimize the possibility of catalyst damage: • Do not shut off the engine or interr upt the ignition when the transmission is in gear and the vehicle is in motion.
T o determine the battery charge, check the battery test indicator (if equipped) on top of the battery . Refer to the illustration. CAUTION! It is essential when replacing the cables on the battery that the positive cable is attached to the positive post and the negative cable is attached to the negative post.
W ARNING! • Use only refrigerants and compressor lubricants approved by the manufacturer for your air condi- tioning system. Some unapproved refrigerants are flammable and can explode, injuring you. Other unapproved refrigerants or lubricants can cause the system to fail, requiring costly repairs.
W ARNING! Fluid level should be checked on a level surface and with the engine off to prevent injury from moving parts and to insure accurate fluid level reading. Do not overfill. Use only manufacturers recommended power steering fluid. If necessary , add fluid to restore to the pr oper indicated level.
also be given to hood latching components to insure proper function. When performing other under hood ser- vices, the hood latch, release mechanism and safety catch should be cleaned and lubricated. The external lock cylinders should be lubricated twice a year , preferably in the fall and spring.
W ARNING! Commercially available windshield washer solvents are flammable. They could ignite and burn you. Care must be exercised when filling or working around the washer solution. After the engine has warmed, operate the defroster for a few minutes to reduce the possibility of smearing or freezing the fluid on the cold windshield.
W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO) which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you.
Cooling System Maintenance At the intervals shown in the Maintenance Schedules section of this manual, the system should be drained, flushed and refilled.
CAUTION! Mixing of coolants other than specified (non- HOA T), may result in engine damage and decreased corrosion protection. If a non-HOA T coolant is intro- duced into the cooling system in an emergency , it should be replaced with the specified coolant as soon as possible.
W ARNING! Never add coolant to the radiator when the engine is overheated. Do not loosen or remove pressure cap to cool overheated engine. The coolant is under pres- sure and severe scalding could result.
coolant. Y our service attendant should be advised of this. When additional coolant is needed to maintain the proper level, it should be added to the coolant bottle. Do not overfill. Points T o Remember A. Do not overfill the coolant bottle. B. Check coolant freeze point in the radiator and in the coolant bottle.
attention should be given to examining hose surfaces nearest to high heat sour ces, such as the exhaust mani- fold. Insure nylon tubing in these ar eas has not melted or collapsed. Inspect all hose clamps and couplings to make sure they are secur e and no leaks are pr esent.
Brake System Power Disc Brakes (Front) Disc brakes do not requir e adjustment; however , several hard stops during the br eak-in period are r ecommended to seat the linings and wear off any for eign material.
CAUTION! Do not allow a petroleum-base fluid to contaminate the brake fluid. Seal damage may result. Brake Linings Y our vehicle is equipped with self-adjusting brakes. During normal driving, a few brake applications while moving in reverse will maintain your brakes at the specified adjustment.
Manual T ransmission Fluid Level Check This fluid should be checked whenever other underhood services are performed. The fluid level is checked by removing the fill plug.
6. Remove the dipstick again and note the fluid level on both sides. The fluid level should be between the “HOT” (upper) refer ence holes on the dipstick at normal operat- ing temperature. V erify that solid coating of oil is seen on both sides of the dipstick.
Automatic T ransmission Fluid And Filter Change T o obtain best performance and long life for automatic transmissions, the manufacturer r ecommends that they be given regular maintenance service by an Authorized Dodge Dealer or Service Center .
T ransfer Case Inspect the transfer case for fluid leaks. If a fluid leak is evident the transfer case fluid level may be low . Have the transfer case serviced immediately . CAUTION! Damage may result from operation of the vehicle with low transfer case fluid.
differ ential. Rear axle fluid level should be 1/4 ⬙ (6.35mm) below filler plug hole for 8 1/4 ⬙ axles and should be 5/8 ⬙ (16mm) below filler plug for 9 1/4 ⬙ axles.
Appearance Care and Protection from Corrosion Protection of Body and Paint from Corrosion V ehicle body care requir ements vary according to geo- graphic locations and usage.
• A void using abrasive compounds and power buffing that may diminish the gloss or thin out the paint finish. CAUTION! Do not use abrasive or strong cleaning materials such as steel wool or scouring powder , which will scratch metal and painted surfaces.
• If you carry special cargo such as chemicals, fertilizers, de-icer salt, etc., be sure that such materials ar e well packaged and sealed. • If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads, consider mud or stone shields behind each wheel. • Use Mopar 威 touch up paint on scratches as soon as possible.
Glass Surfaces All glass surfaces should be cleaned on a regular basis with any commercial household-type glass cleaner . Never use an abrasive type cleaner . Use caution when cleaning inside rear windows equipped with electric defrosters or windshields equipped with a windshield wiper de-icer .
