Front Air Dam Your vehicle is equipped with a front air dam which has minimal ground clearance. Under normal operation, the air dam will occasionally contact some road surfaces (speed bumps, driveway ramps, etc.). This can be heard inside the vehicle as a scraping noise. This is normal and does not indicate a problem. Use care when approaching bumps or objects on road surfaces and avoid them when possible. Ignition Positions Your vehicle has an electronic keyless ignition with a pushbutton start. In order to shift out of PARK (P), the vehicle must be running or in ACCESSORY mode and the regular brake pedal must be applied. / (START): Press this button while your foot is on the brake for an automatic transmission, or while pressing in the clutch for a manual transmission, to start the engine. If your vehicle is in OFF or Retained Accessory Power (RAP) mode, the keyless access transmitter must be inside the vehicle to start the engine. 2-22
