Starting Fluids
The engine is equipped with a glow plug preheating
system. If the instructions in this manual are followed, the
engine should start in all conditions and no type of starting
fluid should be used.
WARNING!
•
Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build up may
cause serious injury or death.
•
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key fob
and lock your vehicle.
•
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to
be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number
of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or
fatally injured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector. Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle (or in a location accessible to children), A
child could operate power windows, other controls,
or move the vehicle.
Extreme Cold Weather
Your vehicle may be equipped with three heating elements;
one engine block heater (a resistance heater installed in the
water jacket of the engine) and two transmission heaters
(one resistance heater installed under the oil reservoir of
the hydraulic actuation system and one on the differential
cover of the transmission). To ensure reliable starting/
operating in extreme cold temperatures, use of an exter-
nally powered electric engine block/transmission heater
(available from your authorized dealer) is recommended.
They require a 110–115 Volt AC electrical outlet with a
grounded, three-wire extension cord. Their use is recom-
mended for environments that routinely fall below -10°F
(-23°C). They should be used when the vehicle has not been
running overnight or longer periods and should be
plugged in two hours prior to start. Their use is required
for cold starts with temperatures under -17°F (-27°C).
NOTE: The engine is designed to work at an ambient
temperature ranging from -22°F to + 122°F (-30°C to +
50C°). Rubber, pipes, timing belt cover and electronic
devices are not designed to work out of this range.
