A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS Y ou can insert the double-sided keys into the locks with either side up. 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 only from an authorized dealer .
T urning the key in the steering lock to the ON/RUN position deactivates the start lock-out. NOTE: In case the engine cannot be started, and ST AR T and ERROR are shown in the odometer display field, the system is not operational. Contact an authorized dealer .
T o unlock the glove compartment, turn the key to the horizontal or left position, and then remove the key . DOOR LOCKS The vehicle doors can be locked when the doors are closed by either manually pre.
NOTE: In case of a malfunction in the central locking system, the doors can be locked and unlocked individu- ally . T o lock, turn the key in the driver’s door lock clockwise, or push down the lock buttons. T o unlock, turn the key in the driver’s door lock counterclockwise, or pull the inside door handles.
locking feature and neither door is opened, the doors remain unlocked even at vehicle speeds of approximately 9 mph (15 km/h) or more. NOTE: If you attempt to lock the doors with the key in the ignition and the driver’s door open, the doors will not lock.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTR Y This featur e allows you to lock or unlock the vehicle fr om remote locations using a hand-held transmitter located in the key fob. Y ou don’t have to point the transmitter at the vehicle to activate the system. The vehicle doors, rear liftgate, and fuel filler door can be locked and unlocked using the remote control.
If the vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked by pressing the transmit button, then it may be necessary to change the batteries in the remote control. Panic Alarm The panic alarm unlocks the driver’s door , turns on the interior lights, flashes the foglights and sounds the horn for about three minutes or until the alarm is turned off.
2. This device must accept any interference that may be received, including interference that may cause undes- ired operation. T ransmitter Battery Service The recommended replacement Lithium battery is Pana- sonic t CR 2025 or equivalent. T o change the batteries: • Press release button (2) on the key fob.
approximately 30 seconds, insert the key in the ignition and turn it to the ON/RUN position. The remote control should once again be operational. SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM The system monitors the doors, rear liftgate, hood, and ignition for unauthorized operation.
The tow-away alarm remains switched off until the vehicle is locked again with the key or the remote control, at which time it is automatically reactivated. POWER WINDOWS The power window switches are located in the console. T o operate, turn the key in the ignition switch to the ACC or ON/RUN position.
When closing the windows, be sure that there is no danger of anyone being harmed by the closing proce- dure. W ARNING! When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key from the ignition switch, and lock the vehicle. Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety featur es in your vehicle are the restraint systems. These include the lap/ shoulder seat belts for the driver and passenger , emer- gency tensioning retractors for the seat belts, and fr ont and side airbags for the driver and passenger .
Lap/Shoulder Belts Each seating position is equipped with a combined lap/shoulder belt system. The belt webbing r etractor will lock only during very sudden stops or impacts. This featur e allows the shoulder part of the belt to move freely with you under normal conditions.
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.
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. Always buckle your belt into the buckle nearest you. • A belt that is too loose will not protect you as well.
W ARNING! A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection. Inspect the belt system periodically , checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately . Do not disassemble or modify the system.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - Airbag This vehicle has airbags for the driver and passenger as a supplement to the seat belt r estraint systems. The driver’s airbag is mounted in the steering wheel. The passenger frontal airbag is mounted in the instrument panel, under a cover marked SRS/AIRBAG.
The seat belts are designed to protect you in many types of collisions. The front airbags deploy only in moderate to severe front collisions. In certain types of collisions, both the front and side airbags may be triggered.
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.
These include all of the items listed above except the knee bolster , the instrument panel, and the steering wheel and column. • The Occupant Restraint Controller also turns on the AIRBAG light in the instrument panel for four seconds when the ignition is first turned on, then turns the light off.
• The knee impact bolster helps protect the knees and working with the seat belts, position you for the best interaction with the airbags. If a Deployment Occurs W ARNING! Deployed airbags can’t protect you in another colli- sion. Have the airbags replaced by an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
process that generates the nontoxic nitrogen gas used for airbag inflation. These airborne particles may irri- tate the skin, eyes, nose, or throat. If you have skin or eye irritation, rinse the area with cool water . For nose or throat irritation, move to fresh air .
W ARNING! • Do not put anything on or around the airbag covers or attempt to manually open them. Y ou may damage the airbags and you could be injured because the airbags are not there to protect you. These protective covers are designed to open only when the airbags are inflated.
W ARNING! • The door mounted side airbag deploys with con- siderable force. Being too close to the door panel during airbag deployment could cause serious injury or death. • All occupants must be in the appropriate restraint for their size and age, especially children 12 and under .
If the airbag is turned off when there is any other occupant at that position, the supplemental restraint provided by the airbag will not be available. T o turn OFF the passenger front airbag, use the on/off switch located on the instrument panel. NOTE: When the passenger airbag is turned off, the yellow airbag off light will illuminate.
• The switch does NOT turn off the side airbag. T o T urn On the Passenger Airbag: • Place the ignition key in the on/off switch, turn the key counterclockwise, and remove the key from the switch.
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 because the airbag is not there to protect you. Do not modify the components or wiring, including adding any kind of badges or stickers to the airbag covers.
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 could 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! • A rearward facing infant restraint must not be used unless the passenger airbag has been shut off. A rearward facing infant restraint may be struck by a deploying passenger airbag which may cause severe or fatal injury to the infant. • Improper installation can lead to failure of a child restraint.
than one year . These child seats are also held in the vehicle by the lap/shoulder belt or the LA TCH child restraint anchorage system. (See LA TCH - Child Seat Anchorage System section.) The belt-positioning booster seat is for children weighing more than 40 lbs.
are general instructions, and not all child restraint sys- tems will be installed exactly as described here. Again, carefully follow the installation instructions that were provided with the child restraint system.
equipped with a tether strap, a hook for attachment to the tether strap anchorage and a means of adjusting the tension of the strap. Y ou will first loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap so that you can mor e easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages.
retractor action is restor ed. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally and pull it tight if necessary . If your child restraint is equipped with a tether strap, attach it to the vehicle by first moving the seat back fully forward.
W ARNING! An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor position directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap. T ransporting Pets Deploying airbags could harm your pet.
SAFETY TIPS Exhaust Gas 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. T o avoid breathing (CO) follow the safety tips below .
Defrosters Check operation by pressing the A/C control button, selecting the defrost mode and placing the blower contr ol on high speed. Y ou should be able to feel the air directed against the windshield. Periodic Safety Checks Y ou Should Make Outside the V ehicle T ires Examine tires for excessive tread wear or uneven wear patterns.

Power Remote Control Outside Mirrors The mirrors can be adjusted by using the remote control located in the console. Rotate the switch to the right to select the right mirror , rotate to the left to select the left mirror . Then use the switch to adjust the selected mirror to the desired direction.
V anity Mirrors A vanity mirror is on each sun visor . T o use the mirror , rotate the sun visor down and slide open the mirror cover . SEA TS Driver Eight-Way Power Seat The switches to adjust the power seats are located on the outboard side of each seat.
Passenger Four-Way Power Seat The switches to adjust the passenger seat are also on the outboard side of the seat. The passenger seat provides four-way adjustment - horizontal and back angle.
Heated Seats This feature heats the driver and passenger seats. The controls for the heated seats ar e located on the instrument panel, below the radio. After turning the ignition switch ON, you can choose the HI, LO, or OFF setting. Indicators on the switches show which setting has been selected.
T o prevent possible damage, close the hood by dropping it from approximately 12 inches (30 cm). W ARNING! If the hood is not fully latched, it could fly up when the vehicle is moving, and block your forward vi- sion. Y ou could have a collision. Be sure all hood latches are fully latched before driving.
Front Map/Reading Lights These lights are located between the sun visors. A single centrally located switch operates both lights. Battery Saver Feature T o prevent battery drain if a door is left open or ajar , the interior lights will turn of f automatically after 15 minutes.
EXTERIOR LIGHTS Headlights and Parking Lights When the headlight switch is turned clockwise from OFF to the first position, the parking lights, taillights, side marker lights, license plate lights and instrument panel lights are all illuminated. The headlights turn on when the switch is turned to the second position.
Fog Lights T o operate the fog lights, pull the headlight switch out one stop, with the parking lights and/or low beam headlights on. A light to the lower left of the headlight switch will illumi- nate when the fog lights are on. T o turn off the fog lights, push the headlight switch in fully .
MUL TIFUNCTION CONTROL LEVER T urn Signals Move the multifunction control lever up to activate the right turn signal; move the lever down to activate the left turn signal.
Headlight Dimmer Switch Push the multifunction control lever toward the instru- ment panel to turn the headlights to high beam. Pull the lever toward you to switch to low beam. Passing Light Y ou can signal another vehicle with your headlights by lightly pulling the multifunction control lever toward the steering wheel.
Windshield Wipers And W asher The wipers and washer are operated by a switch in the multifunction control lever . T urn the end of the lever to select desired wiper speed: off, intermittent, normal, or fast. Push the end of the lever inward and hold it to activate the wiper and washer together .
W ARNING! Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield could lead to an accident. Y ou might not see other vehicles or other obstacles. T o avoid sudden icing of the windshield during freezing weather , warm the windshield with the defroster before and during windshield washer use.
W ARNING! Do not adjust the steering wheel while driving. The telescoping adjustment must be locked while driv- ing. Adjusting the steering wheel while driving, or driving without the telescoping adjustment locked could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
CAUTION! The TPM system is designed to monitor your tire pressure and will not function as a tire pressure gauge. After adjusting the air pressure in a tire, there will be a delay before the system updates the display .
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 operation or sensor dam- age may result when using replacement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.
REAR SPOILER A rear spoiler enhances vehicle stability . The rear spoiler deploys automatically when vehicle speed reaches 62 mph (100 km/h). The spoiler begins to retract at 39 mph (62 km/h). When retracted, the spoiler fits between the quarter panels, and aft of the liftgate window .
Should a malfunction occur that prevents the spoiler from deploying automatically , a red warning light will illuminate in the override switch and an audible warning will sound. W ARNING! Do not drive the vehicle at speeds above 62 mph (100 km/h) if the red spoiler warning indicator is illumi- nated.
BRAKE ASSIST SYSTEM (BAS) W ARNING! BAS cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking efficiency beyond that afforded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded.
turned to the ON/RUN position. They should go out with the engine running. If the BAS/ESP malfunction indicator light comes on continuously with the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in either sys- tem. If the malfunction indicator light stays illuminated, have the BAS and ESP checked at your authorized dealer as soon as possible.
T o improve the vehicle’s traction when driving with snow chains, or starting off in deep snow , sand or gravel, switch off the ESP system by pressing the upper half of the ESP switch. W ith the ESP system switched off, the engine torque reduction featur e is cancelled.
as possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions. When the ESP warning light is illuminated continuously , the ESP is switched of f. T o return to the enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESP , press the lower half of the switch (the ESP warning light in the speedometer dial goes out).
ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL The electronic speed control automatically maintains the set speed by actively regulating the throttle setting. Any speed above approximately 20 mph (30 km/h) can be maintained with the electronic speed control by operat- ing the lever .
T o accelerate and set a speed, lift the lever up. Lift and hold the lever to accelerate, or lift and release to set a speed. T o decelerate and set a speed, press the lever down. Press down and hold the lever to decelerate, or press down and release to set a speed.
T o Deactivate A soft tap on the brake pedal, or normal brake pressure while slowing the vehicle, will deactivate the speed control without erasing the memory . Pushing the speed control lever forward or turning the key in the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position will turn off the speed control and erase the memory .
W ARNING! Speed control can be dangerous where the system can’t maintain a constant speed. Y our vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose control. An accident could be the result. Don’t use speed control in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy , snow-covered, or slippery .
W ARNING! A moving garage door can cause injury to people and pets in the path of the door . People or pets could be seriously or fatally injured. Only use this transceiver with a garage door opener that has a “stop and reverse” feature, as required by federal safety stan- dards.
NOTE: Step 3 does not have to be followed to program additional hand-held transmitters. 4. Choose one of the three buttons to program. Place the hand-held controller 1–3 inches (25–76 mm) from the universal transceiver while keeping its indicator light in view .
Programming Steps 8-10 to complete programming of a rolling code equipped device (most commonly a garage door opener). 8. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage, locate the “learn” or “smart” button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit.

ST ARTING PROCEDURES W ARNING! Do not leave animals or children inside parked vehicles in hot weather; interior heat build up may cause serious injury or death. Be sur e that the parking brake is engaged and that selector lever is in the NEUTRAL or P ARK position (gearshift lever in Neutral).
NOTE: Due to the starter non-repeat feature, the key must be turned completely to the left before attempting to start the engine again. Extremely Cold Weather (below -20°F or -29°C) For reliable sta.
accelerator pedal all the way to the floor and hold it there while cranking the engine. This should clear any excess fuel in case the engine is flooded. CAUTION! T o prevent damage to the starter , do not crank the engine for more than 15 seconds at a time.
Fully depress the clutch pedal before you shift gears. As you release the clutch pedal, lightly depress the accelera- tor pedal. Be sure the transmission is in FIRST gear , (not THIRD), when starting from a stopped position. Damage to the clutch can result from starting in THIRD.
W ARNING! When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key from the ignition switch, and lock the vehicle. Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Children could move the gearshift lever , which could result in an accident or serious injury .
The gear shifting process is continuously adapted, de- pendent on the driving style, the driving situation and the road characteristics. The selector lever is automatically locked while in the P ARK position. T o move the selector lever out of the P ARK position, the brake pedal must be firmly depressed before the shift lock will release.
Maneuvering T o maneuver in tight areas, control the vehicle speed by gradually releasing the brakes. Accelerate gently and never abruptly step on the accelerator . T o rock a vehicle out of soft ground (mud or snow), alternately shift from forward to reverse, while applying only slight acceleration.
Reverse Shift into REVERSE gear only when the vehicle is com- pletely stopped. Dependent on the program mode selector switch position “S” or “W ,” the maximum speed in the REVERSE gear is differ ent. However , it is not possible to change the program mode while in REVERSE.
into another gear that allows for quicker acceleration or to slow the vehicle down is possible. Downshifts can also be performed. Press and hold the selector lever in the “D-” direction. The transmission will shift from the current gear directly to the best gear for acceleration.
Gear Ranges “P” P ARK NOTE: If the key is in the ON/RUN position, you must press the brake pedal to shift out of the P ARK position. P ARK supplements the parking brake by locking the transmission. The engine can be started in this range. Never attempt to use P ARK while the vehicle is in motion.
Depressing the accelerator pedal rapidly or nearly to the floor while driving (kickdown position), rather than depressing the accelerator pedal in slow , small move- ments, will cause the automatic transmission to shift down into a lower gear . Rapid release of the accelerator pedal will normally result in an upshift.
Have the transmission checked at your authorized dealer as soon as possible. P ARKING BRAKE When you apply the parking brake with engine running, the brake system warning light in the instrument cluster will come on. NOTE: This light, when illuminated with parking brake application, shows only that the parking brake is on.
precaution, turn the front wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade and away from the curb on an uphill grade. The parking brake should always be applied when the driver is not in the vehicle. W ARNING! Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged before driving; failure to do so can lead to brake failure and an accident.
BAS assistance. T o receive the benefit of the system you must apply continuous, full braking power during the stopping sequence. Do not reduce brake pedal pressur e.
system. As a result, it is possible that only partial engine output will be available, and pressing the accelerator pedal will requir e more effort. If the BAS malfunctions, the brake system functions in the usual manner , but without BAS. W ith the ABS malfunctioning, the BAS and ESP will be disabled.
W ARNING! ESP cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded. The ESP cannot prevent accidents, includ- ing those resulting from excessive speed in turns, or hydroplaning. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents.
Synchronizing ESP If the power supply was interrupted (battery discon- nected or discharged), the BAS/ESP malfunction indica- tor light may be illuminated with the engine running. T o re-synchr onize the ESP , and cancel the malfunction indi- cator light, the steering angle sensor will need to be recalibrated.
illuminated. W ith the ESP system switched off, the en- gine torque reduction feature is cancelled. Therefore, the enhanced vehicle stability offer ed by ESP is unavailable. CAUTION! Snow chains should never be used without the recommended mud and snow (M+S) rated radial-ply tires.
In the case of an emer gency brake maneuver , keep continuous full pressur e on the brake pedal. In this manner only can the ABS be most effective. On slippery road surfaces, the ABS will respond even with light brake pedal pressure because of the in- creased likelihood of locking wheels.
briefly during this procedur e, or remains on after the engine is running, have the system checked by an autho- rized dealer . When the ABS malfunction indicator light in the instru- ment cluster comes on while the engine is running, it indicates that the ABS has detected a malfunction and has switched off.
W ARNING! T o use your brakes and accelerator more safely , follow these tips: • Do not “ride” the brakes by resting your foot on the pedal. This could overheat the brakes and result in unpredictable braking action, longer stopping distances, or brake damage.
TIRES Please take the time to read the tire warranty booklet in your Owner’s Manual package. It contains valuable information on tire maintenance. Specific recommendations on guidelines for long-term tire storage should be requested of the tir e manufacturer .
3. Ride Comfort And V ehicle Stability Proper tire inflation contributes to a comfortable ride. Over-inflation produces a jarring and uncomfortable ride. Both under-inflation and over-inflation af fect the stability of the vehicle and can produce a feeling of sluggish response or over-r esponsiveness.
Tire Pressure Monitor System The T ire Pr essure Monitor System (TPM) monitors the pressur e in all tires. The TPM system uses wireless technology to monitor tir e pr essure levels. Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the valve stem, transmit tire pr essure r eadings to a computer which monitors for low pressure.
reduce cold inflation pressure below the TPM setpoint. For example, tires inflated to the proper cold inflation pressur e on a warm day or in a warm garage could illuminate the TPM indicator lamp on the following day if the temperatur e is very cold. AL W A YS check the pressur e in your tires if the TPM lamp is illuminated.
When driving with tire chains, press the ESP control switch to OFF . CAUTION! Damage to the vehicle may result if unapproved tire chains are used. Original Equipment Tires Y our vehicle is equipped with either sport performance tires or all-season performance tires.
tire also requir es the purchase of two additional wheels with the same size specification as the original equip- ment front wheels. Snow tires may have a lower speed rating than factory equipped tires and may not match the maximum vehicle speed. Snow tires should not be operated at sustained speeds over 75 mph (120 km/h).
Replacement Tires The tires on your new vehicle provide a balance of many characteristics. They should be inspected regularly for wear and correct inflation pr essure.
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.
Rotate your tires at intervals shown on the maintenance schedules. More frequent rotation is permissible if de- sired. The reasons for any rapid or unusual wear should be corrected before rotating.
Alignment And Balance The suspension components of your vehicle should be inspected and aligned when needed to obtain full tire tread mileage. Poor suspension alignment may result in: • Fast tire we.

without MMT . Gasolines blended with MMT have shown to reduce spark plug life and reduce emission system performance in some vehicles. DaimlerChrysler Corpo- ration recommends using gasolines without MMT .
CAUTION! If the CHECK ENGINE Light is flashing, immediate service is required. See the Onboard Diagnostic System (OBDII) paragraph in the Maintaining Y our V ehicle section of this manual. ADDING FUEL Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap) The gas cap is located under the fuel filler door , on the passenger’s side of the vehicle.
If the warning light does not go out after starting the engine, or if it comes on while driving, it indicates that the fuel level is down to the reserve quantity of approxi- mately 2.1 gallons (8 liters). Leaving the engine running and the fuel cap open can cause the CHECK ENGINE light to illuminate.
VEHICLE LOADING The load carrying capacity of your vehicle is in the following chart and on the tire pressur e label attached to the driver door pillar . V ehicle Loading Capacities Front Seat Occupants ....................... 2 Cargo Capacity (with two persons) .
W ARNING! Cargo must be securely tied before driving your vehicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off the vehicle, particularly at high speeds, resulting in personal injury or property damage. Follow the roof luggage rack “Cautions” when carrying cargo on your roof rack.

• T urn off the engine. • Block the wheel diagonally opposite the flat tire. • Passengers must not remain in the vehicle when the vehicle is jacked. NOTE: The jack is designed exclusively for jacking up the vehicle at the specified jack location points built beneath either side of the vehicle.
2. The lifting points for the jack are located beneath the outer edge of the body side, dir ectly behind the front wheel housings, and in front of the rear wheel housings.
NOTE: Do not raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack is securely engaged, as shown. 3. Holding the jack, insert the cradle under the lifting points. Crank the handle clockwise until the jack base meets the gr ound. Place the jack on firm gr ound.
JUMP-ST ARTING THE BA TTER Y W ARNING! T ake care to avoid the radiator cooling fan whenever the hood is raised. It can start any time the ignition switch is on. Y ou can be hurt by the fan. CAUTION! Do not try to push or tow your vehicle to get it started.
1. W ear eye pr otection and remove any metal jewelry such as watch bands or bracelets that might make an inadvertent electrical contact. 2. When boost is provided by a battery in another vehicle, park that vehicle within booster cable reach but without letting the vehicles touch.
6. Start the engine in the vehicle which has the booster battery , let the engine idle a few minutes, then start the engine in the vehicle with the discharged battery . 7. When removing the jumper cables, reverse the above sequence exactly . Be careful of the moving belts and fans.
FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE In order to free a stuck vehicle you must turn off the Electronic Stability Pr ogram (ESP) before attempting to “rock” the vehicle. If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow , it can often be moved by a rocking motion.
CAUTION! If the vehicle is towed with the front wheels raised, the engine must be shut off (key in the ignition switch turned to the OFF/LOCK or ACC positions). Otherwise, the ESP will immediately be engaged and will apply the rear wheel brakes. Switch off the tow-away alarm as well as the automatic central locking system.

ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM (OBD II) T o meet new government regulations and promote cleaner air , your Crossfir e is equipped with a sophisti- cated onboard diagnostic system called OBD II. This system monitors the performance of the emissions and engine control systems.
EMISSIONS INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE PROGRAMS In some localities, it may be a legal requir ement to pass an inspection of your vehicle’s emissions control system.
If your OBD system is not ready , you should see your authorized dealer or repair facility . If your vehicle was recently serviced or had a battery failure or replacement, you may need to do nothing more than drive your vehicle as you normally would in order for your OBD system to update.
W ARNING! Y ou can be badly injured working on or around a motor vehicle. Do only that service work for which you have the knowledge and the proper equipment. If you have any doubt about your ability to perform a service job, take your vehicle to a competent technician.
The best time to check the engine oil level is about 5 minutes after a fully warmed engine is shut off, or before starting the engine after it has sat overnight. Checking the oil while the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accuracy of the oil level readings.
Change Engine Oil The oil change interval for your Crossfir e is initially set at 7,000 miles (1 1,000 km). The Flexible Service System (FSS) in your vehicle evalu- ates engine temperature, oil level, vehicle speed, engine speed, distance driven, and the time elapsed since your last service.
Engine Oil Selection Only use synthetic engine oils, approved to MB 229.3 or MB 229.5, such as Mobil 1 SAE 0W -40. The FFS may not alert for an oil change at the proper interval if an unapproved engine oil is used; engine damage and reduced engine life may result.
Inspect the drive belts for evidence of cuts, cracks, or glazing and replace them if there is any sign of damage which could result in belt failure. If adjustment is re- quired, adjust the belts according to the specifications and procedures shown in the Service Manual.
Under normal operating conditions, the catalytic con- verter will not r equire maintenance. However , it is im- portant to keep the engine properly serviced to assure proper catalyst operation and prevent possible catalyst damage. If the CHECK ENGINE light is flashing, immediate service is requir ed.
• Do not idle the engine with any spark plug wires disconnected for a prolonged period. Ignition Wiring System The ignition cables should be kept clean and properly connected. T erminals should be fully seated. Cracked, damaged, or faulty cables should be replaced.
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.
Power Steering Fluid No power steering fluid service is requir ed. The system is filled at the factory with Pentosin CHF 1 1S. Steering noise and reduced component life may result if an unappr oved fluid is used. During scheduled maintenance, check the power steering fluid level at the power steering fluid reservoir .
Chassis Lubrication Front Suspension Ball Joints There are two front suspension lower ball joints that are permanently lubricated. Inspect these ball joints when- ever under-vehicle service is done. Steering Linkage Inspect tie r od ends whenever the vehicle is serviced.
lubricant. Repeat this procedur e thr ee or four times. W ipe all the lubricant off the key with a clean cloth, to avoid soiling clothing. Windshield Wiper Blades Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades and the windshield periodically with a sponge or soft cloth and a mild non-abrasive cleaner , or use the washer solvent.
Windshield W asher Reservoir The washer fluid reservoir is located in the engine compartment and should be checked for fluid level at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with windshield washer solvent (not radiator antifr eeze) rated not to freeze at -25°F (-31°C).
If you notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system, or if exhaust fumes can be detected inside the vehicle, or when the underside or rear of the vehicle is damaged, have a competent technician inspect the complete ex- haust system and adjacent body areas for broken, dam- aged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts.
Check the front of the radiator and condenser for an accumulation of bugs, leaves, etc. Clean the radiator and condenser by gently spraying water from a garden hose at the back of the radiator core. Check the recovery bottle tank tubing for condition and tightness of connection at the bottle and radiator .
CAUTION! Failure to use the proper antifreeze could cause radiator plugging and engine overheating. Do not mix antifreeze brands or types. Do not use plain water alone or alcohol base antifreeze products. Do not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust prod- ucts, as they may not be compatible with the radiator coolant and may plug the radiator .
W ARNING! Do not use a pressure cap other than the one speci- fied for your vehicle. Personal injury or engine damage may result. Points to Remember NOTE: When the vehicle is stopped after a few miles/ kilometers of operation, you may observe vapor coming from the fr ont of the engine compartment.
Hoses And V acuum/V apor Harnesses Inspect surfaces of hoses and nylon tubing for evidence of heat and mechanical damage. Hard or soft spots, brittle rubber , cracking, checking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessive swelling indicate deterioration of the rub- ber .
NOTE: Often, fluids such as oil, power steering fluid, and brake fluid are used during assembly plant opera- tions to ease the assembly of hoses to couplings. There- fore, oil wetness at the hose-coupling area is not neces- sarily an indication of leakage.
Use brake fluid approved to MB 331.0, or a DOT 4 brake fluid with: minimum dry boiling point (ERBP) 500°F , minimum wet boiling point (WERBP) 356°F , maximum viscosity 1500 mm2/s, conforming to FMVSS 1 16 and ISO 4925.
CAUTION! Using a transmission fluid other than the fluid recommended by DaimlerChrysler Corporation may cause deterioration in transmission shift quality and/or torque converter shudder . Using a transmis- sion fluid other than that recommended by the DaimlerChrysler Corporation will result in more frequent fluid and filter changes.
CAUTION! Do not overfill. Dirt and water in the transmission can cause serious damage. T o prevent dirt and water from entering the transmission after checking or replenishing fluid, make certain that the dipstick cap is seated properly . Add fluid, if necessary , to maintain the proper level.
What Causes Corrosion? Corrosion is the result of deterioration or removal of paint and protective coatings from your vehicle. The most common causes are: • Road salt, dirt and moisture accumulation. • Stone and gravel impact. • Insects, tree sap and tar .
• If you detect any stone chips or scratches in the paint, touch them up immediately . The cost of such repairs is considered the responsibility of the owner . • Use Mopar t touch-up paint on scratches or chips as soon as possible. Y our dealer has touch-up paint to match the color of your vehicle.
• A car wash that uses carbide-tipped wheel cleaning brushes or acidic solutions. CAUTION! Many wheel cleaners contain acids that may harm the wheel surface. Interior Care Use Mopar t Fabric Cleaner to clean fabric upholstery and carpeting. Use Mopar t V inyl Cleaner to clean vinyl upholstery .
Plastic is not as scratch resistant as glass and therefore differ ent lens cleaning procedur es must be followed. T o minimize the possibility of scratching the lenses and reducing light output, avoid wiping with a dry cloth. T o remove road dirt, wash with a mild soap solution fol- lowed by rinsing.
FUSES Engine Compartment Fuses The engine compartment fuses are located under the hood on the driver’s side, between the brake master cylinder and the left front fender . T o r emove the lid, squeeze the tabs together located at the front of the fusebox.
CAUTION! When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to use only a fuse having the correct amperage rating. The use of a fuse with a rating other than indicated may result in a dangerous electrical system overload. If a properly rated fuse continues to blow , it shows a problem in the circuit that must be corrected.
