3. If the gear selector is not in PARK, with vehicle
speed less than 5 mph (8 km/h), when the EN-
GINE START/STOP button is pushed, the in-
strument cluster display will display a “Vehicle
Not In Park” message, and the vehicle will remain
running.
4. If the gear selector is not in PARK, with vehicle
speed greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), when the
ENGINE START/STOP button is pushed con-
tinuously for at least two seconds (or three short
pushes in a row) the vehicle ignition mode will
exit Drive "Ready" mode and enter "Accessory
mode". Never leave a vehicle out of the PARK
position, or it could roll.
NOTE:
• This vehicle is equipped with an automatic shut-
down feature. If the vehicle is left in a “READY”
state (vehicle running) with the shifter in “PARK”
for one hour, the vehicle will automatically turn
itself off.
• The vehicle provides automatic notification, using
a three Horn Chirp Alert, cluster chiming, and a
cluster message ("Key Fob has Left the Vehicle")
if the vehicle was not turned OFF (still "Ready to
Drive") and a valid FOB for the vehicle is not
detected within the passenger cabin, following the
opening and closing of any passenger compart-
ment door (requires all doors to be closed before
the FOB check will occur). These automatic alerts
are to remind the driver to turn OFF the vehicle
before leaving it, as well as, to let the driver know
that the vehicle's FOB may have been uninten-
tionally removed from the vehicle by an exiting
passenger. After providing the horn chirp alert,
additional auto chirps will be inhibited until the
shifter has been moved out of Park or ignition
cycled.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required for the engine
and drivetrain (transmission and axle) in your ve-
hicle.
Drive moderately during the first 300 miles
(500 km). After the initial 60 miles (100 km),
speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are
desirable.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within
the limits of local traffic laws contributes to a good
break-in. Wide-open throttle acceleration in low
gear can be detrimental and should be avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory
is a high-quality energy conserving type lubricant.
Oil changes should be consistent with anticipated
climate conditions under which vehicle operations
will occur. For the recommended viscosity and qual-
ity grades, refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in “Tech-
nical Specifications”.
CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Min-
eral Oil in the engine or damage may result.
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during its first
few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation. This
should be considered a normal part of the break-in
and not interpreted as a problem.
