Driving and Operating

starts briefly but then stops
again, do the same thing. This
clears the extra gasoline from
the engine. Do not race the
engine immediately after starting
it. Operate the engine and
transmission gently until the oil
warms up and lubricates all
moving parts.

Engine Heater

The engine heater, if available, can
help in cold weather conditions at or
below

18°C (0°F) for easier starting

and better fuel economy during
engine warm-up. Plug in the heater
at least four hours before starting
the vehicle. An internal thermostat
in the plug end of the cord will
prevent engine heater operation at
temperatures above

18°C (0°F).

To Use the Engine Heater

1. Turn off the engine.

2. Open the hood and unwrap the

electrical cord. For vehicles with
a 2.4L engine, the electrical cord
is located on the passenger side
of the engine compartment, near
the air cleaner. For vehicles with
a 2.0L turbo engine, the
electrical cord is located on the
front of the engine, on the driver
side of the vehicle.

Check the heater cord for
damage. If it is damaged, do not
use it. See your dealer for a
replacement. Inspect the cord for
damage yearly.

3. Plug it into a normal, grounded

110-volt AC outlet.

{

Warning

Improper use of the heater cord
or an extension cord can damage
the cord and may result in
overheating and fire.

.

Plug the cord into a
three-prong electrical utility
receptacle that is protected
by a ground fault detection
function. An ungrounded
outlet could cause an electric
shock.

.

Use a weatherproof,
heavy-duty, 15 amp-rated
extension cord if needed.
Failure to use the
recommended extension cord
in good operating condition,
or using a damaged heater or
extension cord, could make it
