-1
I I
Your inside rearview mirror includes two map lamps.
Each lamp has its own switch. Use the switch closest to
the lamp to turn it on. The lamps will also go
on when a
door
is opened.
Courtesy lamps include the dome lamp and other lamps
throughout the interior
of your vehicle.
Retained Accessory Power (RAP)
Your vehicle is equipped with a Retained Accessory
Power (RAP) feature which will allow certain features
of your vehicle to continue to work up to 10 minutes
after the ignition key is turned to the
OFF position.
Your electric mirrors, power windows, and audio system
will work when the ignition key
is in the RUN or ACC
positions. Once the key is turned from
RUN to OFF,
these features will continue to work for up to 10 minutes
or until either door is opened.
Your power door unlock and remote hatch release
features will work when the ignition key
is in the RUN
or ACC positions or if either door is open. Once the key
is turned
to OFF, these features will continue to work for
up to
10 minutes. If either door is open and the ignition
key is
OFF, these features will continue to work until
both doors have been closed for about
30 seconds or
until the theft-deterrent system arms. At that time, both
the power door unlock and remote hatch release features will be disabled
to enhance the security of the vehicle.
The power door lock function will work at all times
except during Lockout Prevention (if this feature is
enabled). See “Lockout Prevention” in the Index.

There is an air bag readiness light on the instrument
panel, which shows AIR BAG. The system checks the
air bag’s electrical system for malfunctions. The light
tells you if there is an electrical problem. The system
check includes the air bag sensors, the air bag modules,
the wiring and the crash sensing and diagnostic module.
For more information on the air bag system, see “Air
Bag” in the Index.
AIR
BAG
You will see this light flash
for a few seconds when you
turn your ignition to
RUN
or START. Then the light
should go
out. This means
the system
is ready.
If the air bag readiness light doesn’t come on when you
start your vehicle, or stays on, or comes on when you
are driving, your air bag system may not work properly.
Have your vehicle serviced right away.
Voltmeter
You can read battery
voltage
on your voltmeter.
If it reads less than 11 volts
or more than
16 volts while
your engine is running, and
it stays there, you may
have a problem with the
electrical charging system.
Have it checked right away. Driving with the voltmeter
reading in
a warning zone could drain your battery.
If you idle your engine for a while, the voltmeter reading
might move into the low voltage zone (indicated by red
dots).
If the reading stays in the low voltage zone while you
are driving, you may have a problem with the electrical
charging system. Have it checked.
While the voltmeter
reads in
the low voltage zone, your battery may not be
able
to power certain electrical accessories, like ABS. (If
this happens, your ABS INOP light will come on. See
“Anti-Lock Brake System Warning Light” in this section.)
If you must drive a short distance with the voltmeter
reading in a warning zone,
turn off all your accessories,
including your air conditioning system and audio system.

Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that are
30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes longer than
that
are so thin they may not work well in this player.

play mode. Press the
SEEK arrow button
that is the same as the lit
direction arrow to skip to the next selection. The tape
will rapidly advance until
it reaches the beginning of a
selection. Once
it finds the selection, it will change to
