NOTE:

The

heated

steering

wheel

switch

is

equipped with a 30 minute timer. After the
switch has been activated for 30 minutes,
the system will automatically turn off. If the
surface temperature of the steering wheel
is above 68°F (20°C) when the switch is
turned on, the system will not heat the
steering wheel. This is not a malfunction.

The vehicle should be driven with the Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system on for most driv-
ing conditions.

If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC
system reduces the engine output to reduce
wheel spin. The engine speed will be reduced
even if the accelerator is depressed to the floor. If
maximum engine power is needed to free a stuck
vehicle, turn the VDC system off.

To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC OFF
switch. The

indicator will come on.

Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart the
engine to turn on the system. See “Vehicle Dy-
namic Control (VDC) system” in the “Starting and
driving” section.

WARNING

The rear sonar system is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper back-
ing. Always turn and check that it is safe to
do so before backing up. Always back up
slowly.

The rear sonar system is active when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position and the shift
selector is in R (Reverse).

When sensors detect obstacles within 5.9 ft
(1.8 m) of the rear bumper, a beeping tone is
emitted.
