A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS The dealer that sold you your new vehicle has the key code numbers for your vehicle locks. These numbers can be used to order duplicate keys fr om your dealer . Ask your dealer for these numbers and keep them in a safe place. Ignition Key Removal Automatic T ransmission Place the shift lever in P ARK.
NOTE: If you try to remove the key befor e you place the lever in P ARK, the key may become trapped temporarily in the ignition cylinder . If this occurs, rotate the key to the right slightly , then remove the key as described.
Manual T ransmission—If Equipped When the steering wheel is in the LOCK position, the steering and ignition systems are locked to pr ovide antitheft protection for your vehicle. It may be dif ficult to turn the key from the LOCK position when starting your vehicle.
STEERING WHEEL LOCK — IF EQUIPPED Y our vehicle may be equipped with a passive steering wheel lock. This lock prevents steering the vehicle with- out the ignition key . If the steering wheel is moved no more than 1/2 turn in either dir ection and the key is not in the ignition switch, the steering wheel will lock.
the vehicle. The system will shut the engine off in two (2) seconds if someone uses an invalid key to start the engine. NOTE: A key that has not been programmed is consid- ered an invalid key even if it is cut to fit the ignition lock cylinder for that vehicle.
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. Cut the additional Sentry Key T ransponder blank(s) to match the ignition switch lock cylinder key code.
General Information The Sentry Key system complies with FCC rules part 15 and with 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 that may be received, including interfer ence that may cause undes- ired operation.

locks will not operate. This prevents you fr om acciden- tally locking your keys in the vehicle. Removing the key or closing the door will allow the locks to operate. A chime will sound if the key is in the ignition switch and a door is open, as a reminder to r emove the key .
Auto Unlock Feature This feature unlocks all the doors of the vehicle when any door is opened . The following must be met: • 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 .
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 , slide the lever UP to engage the locks and DOWN to disengage the child- protection locks.
NOTE: For emergency exit with the system engaged, move the door lock switch to the UNLOCK position, roll down the window and open the door with the outside door handle. 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.

of ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking the inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle should be belted at all times. Lap/Shoulder Belts All seating positions except the front center seating position (with full bench seat) have combination lap/ shoulder belts.
W ARNING! • W earing a seat belt incorrectly is dangerous. Seat belts are designed to go around the large bones of your body . These are the strongest parts of your body and can take the forces of a collision the best. W earing your belt in the wrong place could make your injuries in a collision much worse.
plate and pull out the belt. Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to allow the belt to 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 buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly .
4. Position the lap belt acr oss your thighs, below your abdomen. T o remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up 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 r ed button on the buckle. The belt will automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary , slide the latch plate down the webbing to allow the belt 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 the desired position.

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). The Enhanced W arning System (BeltAlert) can be en- abled or disabled by your au.
Seat Belts and Pregnant Women W e recommend that pr egnant women use seat belts throughout their pr egnancies. Keeping the mother safe is the best way to keep the baby safe. Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt across the thighs and as snug against the hips as possible.
Driver And Right Front Passenger Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) – Airbags This vehicle has airbags for both the driver and right front passenger as a supplement to the seat belt r estraint systems. The driver’s front airbag is mounted in the steering wheel.
W ARNING! • Do not put anything on or around the front airbag covers or attempt to manually open them. Y ou may damage the airbags and you could be injured be- cause the airbags are no longer functional. These protective covers for the airbag cushions are de- signed to open only when the airbags are inflating.
Here ar e some simple steps you can follow to minimize the risk of harm from a deploying airbag. 1. Childr en 12 years and under should always ride buckled up in a rear seat in an appr opriate child restraint. Infants in rear -facing child restraints should NEVER ride in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger fr ont airbag.
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.
• Driver and Front Passenger Seat Belt Pr etensioners • Passenger Airbag Disable (P AD) Indicator Light (Ex- tended Cab V ehicles Only) • Passenger Side frontal Airbag ON/OFF Switch (Ex- tended Cab V ehicles Only).
W ARNING! Ignoring the AIRBAG warning light in your instru- ment panel could mean you won’t have the airbags to protect you in a collision. If the light does not come on, stays on after you start the vehicle, or if it comes on as you drive, have the airbag system checked right away .
symbol and the word ⬙ OFF ⬙ to show that the passenger airbag will not inflate during a collision requiring air - bags. • The Driver and Passenger Airbag/Inflator Units are located in the center of the steering wheel and the right side of the instrument panel.
belted properly and do not position items in the ar ea where the window bag inflates. This especially applies to children. The window bag is only about 3-1/2 inches (9 cm) thick when it is inflated.
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.
W ARNING! Deployed airbags and seat belt pretensioners cannot protect you in another collision. Have the airbags, and both front seat belt retractor assemblies (w/ pretensioners), replaced by an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Enhanced Accident Response System If the airbags deploy after an impact and the electrical system remains functional, vehicles equipped with power door locks will unlock automatically . In addition, approximately 5 seconds after the vehicle has stopped moving, the interior lights will light until the ignition switch is turned off.

pursuant to a warrant). A copy of the data will be provided to the custodial entity upon r equest. General data that does not identify particular vehicles or crashes may be released for incorporation in aggr egate crash databases, such as those maintained by the US govern- ment and various states.
Child Restraint Everyone in your vehicle needs to be buckled up all the time - babies and children, too. Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces r equire that small children ride in pr oper restraint systems. This is the law , and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
• Rearward-facing child seats must NEVER be used in the front seat of a vehicle with a fr ont passenger airbag that does not have a switch to turn the airbag Off.
• If the shoulder belt contacts the face or neck, move the child closer to the center of the vehicle. Never allow a child to put the shoulder belt under an arm. For additional information, refer to www .seatcheck.org. W ARNING! • Improper installation can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint.
use a locking clip. If the seat belt has a cinching latch plate, pulling up on the shoulder portion of the lap/shoulder belt will tighten the belt. The 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 .
Club Cab • The Club Cab front and r ear right (if equipped with a rear seat) passenger seating positions have lower anchorages for LA TCH equipped child restraints.
Installing the LA TCH-Compatible Child Restraint System W e urge that you car efully follow the directions of the manufacturer when installing your child r estraint. Not all child restraint systems will be installed as described her e. Again, carefully follow the installation instr uctions that were pr ovided with the child restraint system.
over the top of the anchorage bars, pushing aside the seat cover material. Then attach the tether strap to the anchor- age located on the back of the seat, being careful to r oute the tether strap to provide the most dir ect path between the anchor and the child restraint.
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 r estraint 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.
2. Route the tether strap acr oss to the center tether anchorage. The center tether is located behind the slide door in the center of the vehicle, between the two seating positions. 3. Remove the slack in the tether strap so that the anchor strap is pulled tight.
T ether Straps at the Rear Passenger Seat (Quad Cab) 1. Route the child r estraint 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.
Multiple Child Restraint Double Cab 70 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE ST ARTING YOUR VEHICLE.
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 Heater Defroster Ducts Inspect the heater defroster ducts for pr oper operation. Check for proper air flow thr ough all defroster ducts.
Lights Check the operation of all exterior lights. Check turn signal and high beam indicator lights on the instrument panel. Door Latches Check for positive closing, latching and locking. Fluid Leaks Check area under vehicle after overnight parking for fuel, water , oil, or other fluid leaks.

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. W ARNING! Be sure to turn off the engine if you want to rest or sleep in your car .
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! Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it started. V ehicles equipped with an automatic trans- mission cannot be started this way . Unburned fuel could enter the catalytic converter and once the engine has started, ignite and damage the converter and vehicle.
The engine block heater cord is located at the right fr ont of the engine compartment for all engine applications. W ARNING! Remember to disconnect the cord before driving.
W ARNING! It is dangerous to shift the selector lever out of “P” or “N” 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 re- verse. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something.
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.
“R” Reverse Use this range only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. “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.
• transmission has reached normal operating tempera- ture. NOTE: If the vehicle is started in extremely cold tem- peratures, the transmission may not shift into Over drive and will automatically select the most desirable gear for operation at this temperature.
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.
T o shift into Reverse, come to a complete stop. Depress the clutch and pause briefly to allow the gear train to stop. Reverse has a ⬙ crash-through ⬙ lockout featur e. In order to get into the r everse gate you should start in neutral 3/4 and move rapidly into the reverse gate in one swift motion.
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.
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE OPERA TION NV233/243 GII T ransfer Case Operating Information/Precautions The NV233/243 is an electric shift transfer case and is operated by the 4WD Control Switch (T ransfer Case Switch), which is located on the instrument panel.
(2WD). If the indicator light is on, the desired position (4WD LOCK and 4WD LOW) has been obtained. If One or More Shift Requirements are not Met: 1. An indicator light will flash.
4WD LOCK positions at a given road speed. T ake care not to overspeed the engine and do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h). Proper operation of 4 wheel drive vehicles depends on tires of equal size, type and cir cumference on each wheel. Any differ ence in tire size can cause damage to the transfer case.
4WD LOCK 4 Wheel Drive Lock (4WD LOCK) Range - Locks the front and rear driveshafts together . Forces the fr ont and rear wheels to rotate at the same speed. Additional traction for loose or slippery road surfaces only . 4WD LOW 4 Wheel Drive Low (4WD LOW) Range - Low speed 4 wheel drive.
return the contr ol knob back to the original position, make certain all shift requir ements have been met, wait five (5) seconds and try the shift again. 2WD to 4WD LOCK or 4WD LOCK to 2WD Rotate the 4WD Control Switch to the desir ed position. Shifts between 2WD and 4WD LOCK can be done with the vehicle stopped or in motion.
2. Shift the transmission into NEUTRAL (depress clutch on manual transmissions). 3. While still r olling, rotate the transfer case control switch to the desired position. 4. After the desir ed position indicator light is ON (not flashing), shift transmission back into gear (release clutch on manual transmissions).
NV 244 Generation II T ransfer Case Operating Information / Precautions The NV 244 Generation II is an electric shift transfer case and is operated by the 4WD Control Switch, which is located on the instrument panel.
NOTE: The transfer case Neutral (N) position is to be used for recr eational towing only . See Recreational T ow- ing section for specific procedur es on shifting into and out of Neutral (N). T ransfer Case Position Indicator Lights T ransfer case position indicator lights are located on the instrument cluster .
4WD LOCK positions at a given road speed. T ake care not to overspeed the engine and do not exceed 40 km/h (25 mph). Proper operation of four -wheel-drive vehicles depends on tires of equal size, type and cir cumference on each wheel. Any differ ence in tire size can cause damage to the transfer case.
For additional information on the appropriate use of each transfer case mode position see the following informa- tion: 4WD Normal Four-Wheel-Drive High Range - Employs inter - axle differ ential. Allows front and r ear wheels to rotate at differ ent speeds.
Shifting Procedure - NV 244 Generation II T ransfer Case NOTE: The 4x4 system will not allow shifts between 4WD/ 4WD LOCK if the rear wheels ar e spinning (no traction). In this situation a position indicator light will flash and the original position indicator light will remain ON.
3. While still r olling, rotate the transfer case control switch to the desired position. 4. After the position indicator light has stopped flashing, shift the transmission back into gear . Alternate Procedure 1. Bring the vehicle to complete stop. 2.
W ARNING! On vehicles equipped with a limited-slip differen- tial, never run the engine with one rear wheel off the ground. The vehicle may drive through the rear wheel remaining on the ground and cause you to lose control of the vehicle. Care should be taken to avoid sudden accelerations when both rear wheels ar e on a slippery surface.
P ARKING BRAKE The foot operated parking brake is positioned below the lower left corner of the instrument panel. T o release the parking brake, pull the parking brake release handle. Be sure the parking brake is firmly set when parked and the gear-shift lever is in the P ARK position.
W ARNING! • Always fully apply the parking brake when leav- ing your vehicle, or the vehicle may roll and cause damage or injury . Also be certain to leave an automatic transmission in Park. Failure to do so may cause the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury .
The system remains operational in the four -wheel drive mode. The level of performance is reduced when the front brakes ar e locked up. This will cause the rear brakes to lock-up through the drivetrain, which may r educe the effectiveness of the anti-lock system.
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.
When you are in a sever e braking condition involving use of the Anti-lock Brake System, you will experience some pedal drop as the vehicle comes to a stop. This is the result of the system r everting to the base brake system. Engagement of the Anti-lock Brake System may be accompanied by a pulsing sensation.
W ARNING! Continued operation with reduced power steering assist could pose a safety risk to yourself and others. Service should be obtained as soon as possible. CAUTION! Prolonged operation of the steering system at the end of the steering wheel travel will increase the steering fluid temperature and should be avoided when possible.
TIRE SAFETY INFORMA TION Tire Markings NOTE: • P (Passenger)-Metric tir e sizing is based on U.S. design standards. P-Metric tir es have the letter “P” molded into the sidewall preceding the size designation. Ex- ample: P215/65R15 95H. • European Metric tir e sizing is based on European design standards.
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 is listed on either the face of the driver’s door or the driver’s side “B” pillar .
Loading The vehicle maximum load on the tire must not exceed the load carrying capacity of the tire on your vehicle. Y ou will not exceed the tire’s load carrying capacity if you adhere to the loadi.
passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (since 5 x 150 = 750, and 1400 – 750 = 650 lbs.) 5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and car go being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4.
ST ARTING AND OPERA TING 225 5.
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. Under inflation, also increases tire r olling resistance and r esults in higher fuel consump- tion.
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.
Life of Tire The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including but not limited to: • Driving style • T ire pressur e • Distance driven W ARNING! T ires and spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread.
W ARNING! • Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combinations of unapproved tires and wheels may change suspen- sion dimensions and performance characteristics, resulting in changes to steering, handling, and brak- ing of your vehicle.
Improper alignment will not cause vehicle vibration. V ibration may be a result of tire and wheel out-of- balance. Proper balancing will r educe vibration and avoid tire cupping and spotty wear .
CAUTION! T o avoid damage to your vehicle, tires or chains, observe the following precautions: • Because of limited chain clearance between tires and other suspension components, it is important that only chains in good condition are used. Broken chains can cause serious vehicle damage.
CAUTION! • Do not use tire chains on vehicles equipped with tires other than P245/70R16. There may not be adequate clearance for the chains and you are risking structural or body damage to your vehicle. • Do not use tire chains on the front wheels of your vehicle.
Follow the recommended tir e rotation fr equency for your type of driving found in the “Maintenance Schedules” Section of this manual. More fr equent rotation is permis- sible if desired. The r easons for any rapid or unusual wear should be corrected prior to r otation being per- formed.
Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not harmful to your engine. However , continued heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause damage and immediate service is requir ed. Poor quality gasoline can cause problems such as har d starting, stalling and hesitations.
CAUTION! DO NOT use gasoline containing Methanol or E85 Ethanol. Use of these blends may result in starting and driveability problems and may damage critical fuel system components. NOTE: 4.7L Engine — If Equipped , is now rated for E85 Ethanol use.
Materials Added T o Fuel All gasolines sold in the United States are r equired to contain effective deter gent additives. Use of additional detergents or other additives is not needed under normal conditions and would result in unnecessary cost. Ther e- fore, you should not have to add anything to the fuel.
Carbon Monoxide W arnings W ARNING! Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is deadly . Follow the precautions below to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning: • Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas which can kill.
ADDING FUEL NOTE: If fuel is poured fr om a portable container , the container should have a flexible nozzle long enough to extend into the fuel filler tube. CAUTION! T o avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top off” the fuel tank after filling.
W ARNING! A fire may result if gasoline is pumped into a portable container that is inside of a vehicle or on a truck bed. Y ou could be burned. Always place gas containers on the ground while filling. Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap) The gas cap is behind the fuel filler door .
FLEXIBLE FUEL— IF EQUIPPED E-85 General Information The information in this section is for Flexible Fuel ve- hicles only . These vehicles can be identified by the unique fuel filler door label that states Ethanol (E-85) or Un- leaded Gasoline Only .
For best results, a r efueling pattern that alternates be- tween E-85 and unleaded gasoline should be avoided. When you do switch fuels, it is recommended that • you do not switch when the fuel gaug.
Cruising Range Because E-85 fuel contains less energy per gallon than gasoline, you will experience an increase in fuel con- sumption. Y ou can expect your MPG and your driving range to decrease by about 30% compar ed to gasoline operation.
This label contains the month and year of manufacture, Gross V ehicle W eight Rating (GVWR), Gross Axle W eight 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.
Each axle GA WR is determined by the component in the system with the lowest load carrying capacity (axle, springs, tires, or wheels). Heavier axles or suspension components sometimes specified by purchasers for incr eased durability do not necessarily increase the vehicle’s GVWR.
or rear axles has been exceeded but the total load is within the specified GVWR. If so, weight must be shifted from fr ont to rear or r ear to front as appropriate until the specified weight limitations are met. Store heavier items down low and be sur e that the weight is distributed equally .
after the vehicle has been weighed both in its ⴖ curb weight ⴖ condition, and in its ⴖ loaded and ready for operation ⴖ condition. Gross V ehicle W eight Rating (GVWR) 6500 LBS. TRAILER TOWING In this section you will find safety tips and information on limits to the type of towing you can reasonably do with your vehicle.
Gross T railer W eight (GTW) The gross trailer weight (GTW) is the weight of the trailer plus the weight of all cargo, consumables and equipment (permanent or temporary) loaded in or on the trailer in its ⬙ loaded and ready for operation ⬙ condition.
Frontal Area The maximum height and maximum width of the front of a trailer . TSC (T railer Sway Control) – If Equipped • T railer Sway Control – Electronic TSC uses sensors in the vehicle to recognize a swaying trailer and will take the appropriate actions to attempt to stop the sway .
used in accordance with the manufactur ers’ directions, it provides for a mor e level ride, offering more consistent steering and brake control ther eby enhancing towing safety . The addition of a friction / hydraulic sway control also dampens sway caused by traffic and cr osswinds and contributes positively to tow vehicle and trailer stability .
Fifth-Wheel Hitch A special high platform with a coupling that mounts over the rear axle of the tow vehicle in the tr uck bed. Connects a vehicle and fifth-wheel trailer with a coupling king pin.
Gooseneck Hitch The gooseneck hitch employs a pivoted coupling arm which attaches to a ball mounted in the bed of a pickup truck. The coupling arm connects to the hitch mounted over the rear axle in the tr uck bed.
T railer T owing Weights (Maximum T railer Weight Ratings) NOTE: For additional trailer towing information (maxi- mum trailer weight ratings) refer to the following website addresses: • http:// www .dodge.com/towing . • http:// www .dodge.ca (Canada).
• The weight of any other type of cargo or equipment put in or on your vehicle. • The weight of the driver and all passengers. NOTE: Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle.
W ARNING! Improper towing can lead to an injury accident. Follow these guidelines to make your trailer towing as safe as possible: Make certain that the load is secured in the trailer and will not shift during travel. When trailering cargo that is not fully secured, dynamic load shifts can occur that may be difficult for the driver to control.

Service manuals are available which include detailed service information for your vehicle. Refer to these manuals before attempting any pr ocedure yourself.
could adversely affect the engine or vehicle performance. These items should be inspected if a malfunction is observed or suspected. Engine Oil Checking Engine Oil Level T o assure pr oper lubrication of your vehicle’s engine, the engine oil must be maintained at the correct level.
Change Engine Oil Road conditions and your style of driving affect the interval at which your oil should be changed. Check the following to determine if ANY apply to you: • Day or night temperatures ar e below 32°F (0°C). • Stop and Go driving. • Extensive engine idling.
Dusty Conditions Driving through dust-laden air incr eases the problems of keeping abrasive materials out of the engine. Under these conditions, special attention should be given to the engine air cleaner . The crankcase ventilation system should also be checked periodically .
Lubricants which do not have both, the engine oil certi- fication mark and the correct SAE viscosity grade num- ber should not be used. Synthetic Engine Oils Y ou may use synthetic engine oils provided the r ecom- mended oil quality requir ements are met, and the r ecom- mended maintenance intervals for oil and filter changes are followed.
Drive Belts — Check Condition and T ension Belt tension is controlled by means of an automatic tensioner . No belt tension adjustments are r equired. However , belt and belt tensioner condition should be inspected at the specified intervals, and replaced if r e- quired.
Engine Air Cleaner Filter Under normal driving conditions, replace the air filter at the intervals shown on Schedule “A”. If, however , you drive the vehicle frequently under dusty or sever e con- ditions, the filter element should be inspected periodi- cally and replaced if necessary at the intervals shown on Schedule “B”.
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.
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. Battery posts are marked (+) positive and negative (-) and identified on the battery case.
Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling R-134a Air Conditioning Refrigerant is a hydrofluor ocar- bon (HFC) that is endorsed by the Environmental Pr o- tection Agency and is an ozone-saving product.
Drive Shaft Constant V elocity Joints All four wheel drive models are equipped with four constant velocity joints. Periodic lubrication of these joints is not requir ed. However , the joint boot should be inspected for external leakage or damage periodically .
A void using the wiper blades to remove fr ost or ice from the windshield. Keep the blade rubber out of contact with petroleum pr oducts such as engine oil, gasoline, etc. Windshield W ashers The fluid reservoir should be checked for fluid level at regular intervals.
Exhaust System The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust system. Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of the exhaust system, .
Cooling System W ARNING! Y ou or others can be badly burned by hot coolant or steam from your radiator . If you see or hear steam coming from under the hood, don’t open the hood until the radiator has had time to cool. Never try to open a cooling system pressure cap when the radia- tor is hot.
Cooling System — Drain, Flush and Refill At the intervals shown on the Maintenance Schedules, the system should be drained, flushed and refilled. If the solution is dirty or contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with a reliable cooling system cleaner .
Adding Coolant Y our vehicle has been built with an improved engine coolant that allows extended maintenance intervals. This coolant can be used up to 5 Y ears or 100,000 miles before replacement. T o prevent reducing this extended mainte- nance period, it is important that you use the same coolant throughout the life of your vehicle.
W ARNING! • The warning words “DO NOT OPEN HOT” on the cooling system pressure cap are a safety pre- caution. Never add coolant when the engine is overheated. Do not loosen or remove the cap to cool an overheated engine. Heat causes pressure to build up in the cooling system.
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 NOTE: When the vehicle is stopped after a few miles (a few kilometers) of operation, you may observe vapor coming from the fr ont of the engine compartment.
• Do not change the thermostat for summer or winter operation. If replacement is ever necessary , install ONL Y the corr ect type thermostat. Other designs may result in unsatisfactory coolant performance, poor gas mileage, and increased emissions.
attempt to clean the oil PCV valve! Check ventilating hose for indication of damage or plugging with deposits. Replace if necessary . 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.
W ARNING! Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts and the brake fluid catching fire. Use only brake fluid that has been in a tightly closed container to avoid contamination from for eign matter or moisture.
W ARNING! W orn brake hoses can burst and cause brake failure. Y ou could have an accident. If you see any sign of cracking, scuffing, or worn spots, have the brake hoses replaced immediately . Clutch Hydraulic System The clutch hydraulic system is a sealed maintenance free system.
