Changes or modifications to this system by other than
an authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
The average range of this system is about 10 feet (3 m).
At times you may notice a decrease in range. This is
normal for any remote keyless entry transmitter.
If the transmitter does not work or if you have to
stand closer to your vehicle for the transmitter to work,
try the following:

Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.

Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left or
right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again.

Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions that follow.

If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or
a qualified technician for service.Operation
(Lock): When you
press this symbol to lock the
doors, the parking lamps
will flash once and the horn
will sound once. This arms
the theft
-deterrent system.
The parking lamps will not flash, however, if the manual
parking lamps are left on. Remote confirmation is not
operational if a door is open.
You can program your vehicle so the parking lamps
will not flash and the horn will not sound. For more
information, see ªVehicle Programming and
Personalization Featuresº in the Index.
(Unlock): When you press this button to unlock
the driver's door, the parking lamps on your vehicle
will flash twice. The parking lamps will not flash if they
have been turned on manually. Remote confirmation is
not operational if a door is open.

Turn Signal/Multifunction Lever
The lever located on the left side of the steering column
includes the following:

Turn and Lane Change Signals

Headlamp High/Low
-Beam Changer

Flash
-To-Pass Feature
For information on the exterior lamps, see ªExterior
Lampsº later in this section.
Turn and Lane-Change Signals
To signal a turn, move the lever on the left side of the
steering wheel all the way up or down. The lever returns
automatically when the turn is complete.
An arrow located on the
instrument panel cluster
will flash in the direction
of the turn or lane change.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to flash to
signal a lane change. Hold it there until the lane change
is complete. The lever returns when it is released.
If the turn signal is left on, a warning chime will sound
and the Driver Information Center (DIC) will display
TURN SIGNAL ON after driving about a mile to
remind you to turn it off.
Arrows that flash rapidly when signaling for a turn or
lane change may be caused by a burned
-out signal bulb.
Other drivers won't see the turn signal.
Replace burned
-out bulbs to help avoid possible
accidents. Check the fuse (see ªFuses and Circuit
Breakersº in the Index) and for burned
-out bulbs
if the arrow fails to work when signaling a turn.

2-40 Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
When the low-beam headlamps are on, push the turn
signal lever away from you to change the headlamps
to high beam.
This light on the
instrument panel cluster
will be on, indicating
high
-beam usage.
Pull the turn signal lever toward you to return to
low
-beam headlamps.
Flash-To-Pass
This feature lets you use the high-beam headlamps to
signal the driver in front of you that you want to pass.
Pull the turn signal lever toward you briefly to
flash
-to-pass. When you do, the following will occur:

If the headlamps are either off or in the Daytime
Running Lamps (DRL) mode, the high
-beam
headlamps will turn on. They'll stay on as long
as you hold the lever there. Release the lever to
turn them off.

If the headlamps are on low beam, they will remain
active and the high beam will also illuminate until
you release the lever.

2-49 Fog Lamps (STS Only)
Use the fog lamps for better vision in foggy or
misty conditions.
When the ignition is on and you push the fog lamp
button located next to the exterior lamps control,
a small indicator light in the fog lamp button, the
LIGHTS ON and fog lamp indicator lights on the
instrument panel cluster will come on to indicate that
the fog and the parking lamps are on.
Press the fog lamp button again to turn off the
fog lamps.
If you turn on the high
-beam headlamps, the fog
lamps will turn off. They'll turn back on again when
you switch to low
-beam headlamps.
When the Twilight Sentinel

is on and the fog lamps
are turned on, the fog lamps, headlamps and parking
lamps will remain on.
The ignition must be on for the fog lamps to operate.
Cornering Lamps
The cornering lamps come on when the headlamps
or parking lamps are on and you signal a turn with
the multifunction lever. They provide more light
for cornering.
Twilight Sentinel

This lever is located below
the exterior lamps control.
It automatically turns the
lamps on and off by sensing
how dark it is outside.
To operate the Twilight Sentinel, leave the exterior
lamps control off and slide the TWILIGHT lever to
any position but OFF.
If you move the lever all the way to the right, the lamps
will remain on for approximately three minutes after the
ignition has been turned to OFF. If you move the lever
so it is barely on, the lamps will go off quickly when
you turn the ignition switch out of OFF. You can
adjust the delay time from only a few seconds to
about three minutes.
If it's dark enough outside and the Twilight Sentinel
lever is off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message
will display on the Driver Information Center (DIC).

2. Press BAND to select AM, FM1 or FM2.
3. Tune in the desired station.
4. Press and hold one of the six numbered pushbuttons
for more than two seconds until you hear a beep.
5. Repeat the steps for each pushbutton. Whenever you

two seconds, the station you set will return.
When battery power is removed and later applied, you
will not have to reset your radio presets because the
radio remembers them.
