General Information

The following regulatory statement applies to all radio frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

This device must accept any interference received, in-

cluding interference that may cause undesired operation.

NOTE: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

SENTRY KEY

The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthorized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The system does not need to be armed or activated. Operation is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.

The system uses a key fob, keyless push button ignition and a RF receiver to prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle. The

system cannot reprogram a key fob obtained from another vehicle.

After turning the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position, the vehicle security light will turn on for three seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem with the electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after the bulb check, it indicates that someone attempted to start the engine with an invalid key fob. In the event that a valid key fob is used to start the engine but there is an issue with the vehicle electronics, the engine will start and shut off after two seconds.

If the vehicle security light turns on during normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than ten seconds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an authorized dealer.

CAUTION!

The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compatible with some aftermarket remote starting systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and loss of security protection.

Page 35

All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle electronics.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 33

When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized dealer.

Key Programming

Programming key fobs may be performed at an authorized dealer.

Replacement Keys

NOTE: Only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle electronics can be used to start and operate the vehicle. Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed to any other vehicle.

CAUTION!

• Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.

• For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go — Ignition, always remember to place the ignition in the OFF position.

NOTE: Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an

Vehicles Without Passenger Seating Installed

All passenger occupants within the vehicle must be in a seat equipped with a Seat Belt System and Head Restraint for the safety of the passenger. If the passenger and/or rear seats have been removed, do not ride in those areas.

This vehicle has been designed to maximize total performance. In doing so, the deletion of passenger seats and/or rear seat may affect the NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) characteristics. As a result, the interior (driver cockpit) Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) will be louder overall.

WARNING!

• If the passenger and/or rear seats have been removed, do not ride in those areas. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.

• If this vehicle was not factory equipped with a passenger seat, NEVER attempt to install a passenger seat because the safety systems, including the air bags and seatbelt, may not properly protect you.

(Continued)

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 49

WARNING! (Continued)

• It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in this area are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.

• Only ride in available seating positions equipped with seat belt systems. Always properly wear your seat belt. Failure to do so could result in an increased risk of serious injury or death in the event of an accident.

• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly. Occupants, including the driver, should always wear their seat belts whether or not an air bag is also provided at their seating positions to minimize the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a crash.

• All occupants, including the driver, should not operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat if the head restraints are not in place of their proper positions in order to minimize the risk of neck injury in the event of a crash.

(Continued)

Page 52

50 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

• Head restraints should never be adjusted while the vehicle is in motion. Driving a vehicle with the head restraints improperly adjusted or removed could cause serious injury or death in the event of a collision.

Passenger Seat Easy Entry

On the passenger seat, pull forward on the lever located on the side of the seatback in order to dump the seatback and slide the seat forward. You can also temporarily remove the seat belt from the guide loop on the seat and allow the seat belt to retract out of the way. This allows for easier access to the rear seat. To return the seat to a normal seating position, first return the seatback to its original recline location and then slide the entire seat back to the pre-set lock position.

Easy Entry Lever

NOTE:

• The front passenger seat needs to slide back to the “remembered” pre-set position for the fore-aft adjuster to be properly locked. For example, if the front passenger has the seat adjusted full rear and exits the vehicle to let a rear passenger enter using the easy entry handle, the fore-aft adjuster needs to slide back to the full rear position. If the adjuster is not returned to the original pre-set position, the seat will appear to be loose.

Page 53

• Also, if the front passenger uses the easy entry handle and then lifts up the recliner handle without moving the seat back to its original pre-set position, the recliner will not lock until it is moved to the full recline position.

HEAD RESTRAINTS

Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk of injury by restricting head movement in the event of a rear-impact. Head restraints should be adjusted so that the top of the head restraint is located above the top of your ear.

WARNING!

• All occupants, including the driver, should not operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat until the head restraints are placed in their proper positions in order to minimize the risk of neck injury in the event of a crash.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 51

NOTE: Do not reverse the head restraints (making the rear of the head restraint face forward) in an attempt to gain additional clearance to the back of your head.

Reactive Head Restraints — Front Seats

The front driver and passenger seats are equipped with Reactive Head Restraints (RHR). In the event of a rear impact, the RHRs will automatically extend forward minimizing the gap between the back of the occupants head and the RHR.

The RHRs will automatically return to their normal position following a rear impact. If the RHRs do not return to their normal position, see your authorized dealer immediately.

Canadian/Gate Operator Programming

For programming transmitters in Canada/United States that require the transmitter signals to “time-out” after several seconds of transmission.

Canadian radio frequency laws require transmitter signals to time-out (or quit) after several seconds of transmission – which may not be long enough for HomeLink to pick up the signal during programming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to time-out in the same manner.

2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.

3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button, while you press and release (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter every two seconds until HomeLink has successfully accepted the frequency signal. The indicator light will flash slowly and then rapidly when fully trained.

4. Watch for the HomeLink indicator to change flash rates. When it changes, it is programmed. It may take up to 30 seconds or longer in rare cases. The garage door may open and close while you are programming.

5. Press and hold the programmed HomeLink button and observe the indicator light.

NOTE:

• If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and the garage door/device should activate when the HomeLink button is pressed.

CAUTION!

• Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the engine from starting.

• Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will degrade the battery even more quickly. Only use these intermittently and with greater caution.

• After the use of high power draw accessories, or long periods of the vehicle not being started (with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a sufficient length of time to allow the alternator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.

• Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not hang any type of accessory or accessory bracket from the plug. Improper use of the power outlet can cause damage.
