PARKED
It’s better not to park with the engine running. But if you ever have to,
here are some things
to know.
Follow the proper steps to be sure your vehicle won’t move. See “Shifting
Into
‘P’ (Park)” in the Index.
If you are parking on a hill and if you’re pulling a trailer, also see “Towing
a Trailer’’ in the Index.

The controls are near
each window. Here’s
how the master control
works.
Your vehicle has Retained Accessory Power
(RAP). When you stop your
vehicle and turn the ignition
key to “Off”, you can still use your power
windows. The electrical power to operate the windows will not shut
off
until you open a door or 10 minutes has passed. If you want this power
for another
10 minutes, just turn the key to “Run” and back to “Off”.
Express Down Window
The driver’s power window has this feature. Just press the switch
rearward once
-- for half a second or more -- and then let go. The window
will lower completely.
If you want to stop the window as it is lowering,
press the switch again.
To raise the window, press and hold the switch
forward.

To sound the horn, just press the center of the steering wheel.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the arrows don’t flash but just
stay on, a signal bulb may be burned out and other drivers won’t see your
turn signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an accident. If the green
arrows don’t go on at all when you signal
a turn, check the fuse (see
“Fuses” in the Index) and for burned-out bulbs.
Operation of Lights
Although your vehicle’s lighting system (headlights, parking lights, fog
lamps, side marker lights and taillights) meets all applicable federal
lighting requirements, certain states and provinces may apply their own
lighting regulations that may require special attention before you operate
these lights.
For example, some jurisdictions may require that you operate your lower
beam lights with fog lamps at all times, or that headlights be turned on
whenever you must use your windshield wipers. In addition, most
jurisdictions prohibit driving solely with parking lights, especially at dawn
or dusk. It is recommended that you check with your own state or
provincial highway authority for applicable lighting regulations.
Yeadlight High-Low Beam
To change the
headlights from low
beam to high or high to
low, pull the turn signal
lever all the way toward
you. Then release
it.
When the high beams
are on, this blue light
on the instrument
panel also
will be on.
