WARNING:

Do not use the system

with any garage door opener that does
not have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal
Safety Standards (this includes any
garage door opener manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door
opener which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the risk
of serious injury or death.

Note:

Make sure that the garage door and

security device are free from obstruction
when you are programming. Do not program
the system with the vehicle in the garage.

Note:

Make sure you keep the original

remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future system
programming.

Note:

We recommend that upon the sale

or lease termination of your vehicle, you
erase the programmed function buttons for
security reasons. See

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER

(IF

EQUIPPED)

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

Failure to follow engine

block heater instructions could result in
property damage or serious personal
injury.

WARNING:

Do not use your heater

with ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock.

WARNING:

Do not fully close the

hood, or allow it to drop under its own
weight when using the engine block
heater. This could damage the power
cable and may cause an electrical short
resulting in fire, injury and property
damage.

160

Starting and Stopping the Engine

We recommend that you do the following
for a safe and correct operation:
•

Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord
that is product certified by
Underwriter’s Laboratory (UL) or
Canadian Standards Association
(CSA). This extension cord must be
suitable for use outdoors, in cold
temperatures, and be clearly marked
Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances. Do not use an indoor
extension cord outdoors. This could
result in an electric shock or become a
fire hazard.

•

Use as short an extension cord as
possible.

•

Do not use multiple extension cords.

•

Make sure that when in operation, the
extension cord plug and engine block
heater cord plug connections are free
and clear of water. This could cause an
electric shock or fire.

•

If the engine block heater cord is under
the hood, do not remove the wiring
from its original location. Do not close
the hood on the extension wiring.

•

Park your vehicle in a clean area, clear
of combustible materials.

•

Firmly connect the engine block heater
cord and the extension cord.

•

Check the extension cord for heat
anywhere when the system has been
operating for approximately 30
minutes.

•

Unplug and properly stow the system
before starting and driving your vehicle.
The protective cover seals the
terminals of the engine block heater
cord plug when not in use.

•

Check the engine block heater system
for proper operation before winter.

HOW DOES THE ENGINE BLOCK
HEATER WORK

The engine block heater warms the engine
coolant. This allows the climate control
system to quickly respond. The equipment
includes a heater element installed in the
engine block and a wire harness. You can
connect the system to a grounded
220-240 volt AC electrical source.

Note:

The engine block heater is most

effective when outdoor temperatures are
below 0°F (-18°C).

USING THE ENGINE BLOCK
HEATER

Make sure the receptacle terminals are
clean and dry prior to use. Clean them with
a dry cloth if necessary.

The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hours
of energy per hour of use. The system does
not have a thermostat. It achieves
maximum temperature after
approximately three hours of operation.
Using the engine block heater longer than
three hours does not improve system
performance and unnecessarily uses
electricity.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

STOPPING THE ENGINE WHEN
YOUR VEHICLE IS STATIONARY

Shift into park (P).

2. Apply the parking brake.

3. Wait until the engine reaches idle

speed.
