You can open the doors manually using the knob next to
the headlamp assembly. Turn the knob counterclockwise
until the doors are open. Turn the knob clockwise to
close the doors manually.
The headlamp doors should be open when driving in icy
or snowy conditions to prevent the doors from freezing
closed and when washing the vehicle to help clean
the headlamps.
NOTICE:
In order to avoid possible contact of the hood to
the headlamp doors, care should be taken in
raising the hood with the headlamps up, or shut
off the headlamps prior to opening the hood.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low beam to high or high
to low, push the turn signal lever all the way forward.
When the high beams are
on, this light on the
instrument panel cluster
also will be on. To change
the headlamps from high to
low, pull the lever rearward.
Lamps on Reminder
If you turn the ignition off and leave the headlamps or
parking lamps on and open a door, you will hear a chime
reminding you to turn off the lamps.
Flash-to-Pass Feature
To use the flash-to-pass feature, momentarily pull the
turn signal lever toward you. The high
-beam indicator
will flash to indicate to the other driver that you intend
to pass. If the low
-beam headlamps are off and you have
the optional fog lamps on, the fog lamps will flash.

2-48
Fog Lamps (Option)
Use the fog lamps for better vision in foggy or misty
conditions. Your parking lamps or low
-beam headlamps
must be on or the fog lamps won't work.
To turn the fog lamps on, push the button located on
the instrument panel, to the left of the steering column.
A light on the button will come on when the fog lamps
are on. Push the button again to turn the fog lamps off.
Twilight Sentinel
Automatic Lamp
Control (Optional, Standard in Canada)
Twilight Sentinel can turn your lamps on and off for
you. A light sensor on top of the instrument panel makes
the Twilight Sentinel work, so be sure it isn't covered.
You can customize your vehicle to turn Twilight
Sentinel on or off (except for vehicles first sold in
Canada). See ªDriver Information Center (DIC)º in
the Index to turn this feature on or off.
When Twilight Sentinel is turned on, you will see the
following happen:

When it's dark enough outside, the front turn signal
lamps (DRL) will go off, and the headlamps and
parking lamps will come on. The other lamps that
come on with headlamps will also come on.

When it's bright enough outside, the headlamps will
go off, and the front turn signal lamps (DRL) will
come on, as long as the headlamp switch is in the
OFF position.

2-51 Inadvertent Load Control
Your vehicle has a feature to help prevent you from
draining the battery in case the underhood lamp, vanity
mirror lamps, cargo lamps, reading lamps, console or
glove box lamps are accidentally left on. If you leave
any of these lamps on, they will automatically time out
after 15 minutes. To reset it, all of the above lamps must
be turned off or the ignition key must be in ON.
Mirrors
Inside Day/Night Rearview Mirror
An inside rearview mirror is attached above the
windshield. The mirror has pivots so that you can
adjust it.
You can adjust the mirror for day or night driving.
Pull the tab for night driving to reduce glare.
Push the tab for daytime driving.
Power/Heated Remote Control Mirrors
The electric mirror control is on the driver's door. It
controls the driver's and passenger's mirrors. To adjust
either mirror, press the LT (left) or RT (right) button to
select the mirror, then press the arrows to adjust the
direction of the mirror. The selected mirror will stay on
for 20 seconds after the last adjustment. An indicator
light will come on above the mirror that you select.
Your preferred mirror position can be stored if you have
the memory option. See ªMemoryº in the Index.

DEFOG: This setting divides the air between the
windshield and lower outlets with a small amount of air
directed toward the side window vents. This is useful
when fog appears on the windshield or side glass due to
rain or snowy conditions.
DEFROST: Use this setting to quickly remove fog
or frost from the windshield. This setting directs most of
the airflow to the windshield with a small amount of air
directed toward the lower and side window outlets.
Mode Buttons
These buttons control the air intake, the air conditioning
and the rear window defogger operation.
FRESH AIR: Press this button and it will bring
outside air into the vehicle. The light on the button will
come on when operating. Use this setting while trying to
defrost or defog windows to help clear moisture.
RECIRCULATE: Press this button to limit the
amount of fresh air entering the vehicle by recirculating
most of the air inside the vehicle. The light on the button
will come on when operating. This setting is helpful
when you are trying to cool the air quickly or to limit
odors entering the vehicle. Recirculate cannot be used
while in the DEFROST or DEFOG modes.Operating the system in the recirculation mode may
cause fogging of the vehicle's windows when the
weather is cold and damp. To clear the fog, switch the
system to either the DEFOG or DEFROST mode and
increase the fan speed. To avoid re
-fogging of the
windows, operate the system in the OUTSIDE
AIR mode.
A/C: This button turns the air conditioning
compressor off or on under most conditions. The light
on the A/C button comes on when the compressor is
operating. The air conditioning does not operate at
temperatures below approximately 35
F to 40
F
(2
C to 4
C). The air conditioning cools and
dehumidifies the air coming into the vehicle. The air
conditioning cannot be turned off in DEFROST, as it
helps to remove moisture from the vehicle. It also helps
to keep the windows clear.
The air conditioning may be forced off at high engine
speeds or high engine oil or coolant temperatures.
See ªRear Window Defoggerº later in this section for
more information.

3-8
A/C: This button turns the air conditioning
compressor off or on under most conditions. The light
on the A/C button will come on when the compressor is
operating in either the automatic or manual mode. The
air conditioning does not operate at temperatures below
approximately 35
F to 40
D (2
C to 4
C).
The light on the A/C button will flash if pressed when
air conditioning is not allowed. The air conditioning
cools and dehumidifies the air coming into the vehicle.
The air conditioning cannot be turned off in DEFROST
and DEFOG, as it helps to remove moisture from the
vehicle. It also helps to keep the windows clear.
If the system is operating in the AUTO mode, turning
the air conditioning off will delete AUTO from the
digital display and show current mode and fan settings.
The AUTO button must be pressed to return to the
automatic mode operation.
The air conditioning may be forced off at high engine
speeds or high engine oil or coolant temperatures. FRESH AIR: Press this button to provide fresh
air from the outside. The light on this air intake button
will come on to show when it is operating. When in the
AUTO mode, the system automatically selects FRESH
AIR instead of recirculate, as required, to control the
temperature in the vehicle. By pressing FRESH AIR, the
system will lock into the fresh air mode. Any adjustment
to the air intake must then be made manually. FRESH
AIR should be used when trying to defrost or defog
windows to help reduce moisture inside the vehicle.
RECIRCULATE: Press this button to limit the
amount of fresh air entering the vehicle. The light on
this air intake button will come on to show when it is
operating. Recirculate is helpful when you are trying to
cool the air quickly or trying to limit odors and dust
from entering the vehicle. When in the AUTO mode,
the system automatically selects recirculate to cool the
vehicle's temperature. By pressing this button, the
system will lock into the recirculated air mode.
Any adjustment to the air intake must then be made
manually. The recirculated air mode is not allowed in
the front defrost or defog modes as fresh air helps
reduce moisture inside the vehicle.
