Read the tech article

Check out the "Technical Articles" section. There is a decent article about adjusting your minimum idle (there is a torx screw under a cap you can punch out on your throttle body) and checking your TPS voltage (throttle position sensor). If you're more interested in fixing a rough idle, maybe start with looking at your IAC (idle air control) valve.
