Hazard Warning Flashers
Your hazard warning ¯ashers let you warn others. They
also let police know you have a problem. Your front
and rear turn signal lamps will ¯ash on and off.The hazard warning button
is located on the center of
the instrument panel
between the two air vents.
Your hazard warning ¯ashers work no matter what
position the key is in, and even if the key isn't in.
Press the button to make the front and rear turn signal
lamps ¯ash on and off. Press the button again to
turn the ¯ashers off.
When the hazard warning ¯ashers are on, the turn
signals won't work.

Turn and Lane-Change Signals
To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up or down.
The lever returns automatically when the turn is
complete.
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster and in the
outside rearview mirror will
¯ash in the direction of
the turn or lane change.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to ¯ash to
signal a lane change. Hold it there until the lane change is
complete. The lever returns when it's 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 ¯ash 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 and for burned-out bulbs if the
arrow fails to work when signaling a turn. See
Fuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 5-94.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
Push forward to change the headlamps from low beam
to high. Pull the lever back and then release it to
change from high beam to low.
This light on the instrument
panel cluster will be on,
indicating high-beam
usage.
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 and hold the turn signal lever toward you
to use. 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 high beam, they will switch
to low beam. To return to high beam, push the
lever away from you.

Cruise Control
With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of
approximately 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without
keeping your foot on the accelerator. This is helpful on
long trips. Cruise control does not work at speeds
below about 25 mph (40 km/h). When cruise control is
on, you will see a CRUISE light on the instrument panel
cluster.When you apply your brakes, the cruise control shuts off.
{CAUTION:
·Cruise control can be dangerous where
you can't drive safely at a steady speed.
So, don't use your cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
·Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
needless wheel spinning, and you could
lose control. Don't use cruise control on
slippery roads.
If your vehicle is in cruise control when the traction
control system begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise
control will automatically disengage. See
Traction
Control System (TCS) on page 4-9. When road
conditions allow you to safely use it again, you may turn
the cruise control back on.

Setting Cruise Control
{CAUTION:
If you leave your cruise control on when you're
not using cruise, you might hit a button and go
into cruise when you don't want to. You could
be startled and even lose control. Keep the
cruise control switch off until you want to use
cruise control.
The buttons to operate cruise control are located on the
steering wheel.1. Press the CRUISE ON/OFF button, located on the
bottom left of the steering wheel, to turn cruise
control on. An indicator light will come on to show
that the cruise control is on.
2. Get up to the speed you want.
3. Press the SET/CST (coast) button located on the
bottom right of the steering wheel. The CRUISE
light will display on the instrument panel cluster.
4. Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake. This shuts off the
cruise control. But you don't need to reset it.
Once the vehicle is traveling approximately 25 mph
(40 km/h) or more, you can press the RES/ACC
(resume/accelerate) button to return to your desired
preset speed. The CRUISE light will be displayed again.
The vehicle will return to and stay at your preset
speed. If you press and hold the RES/ACC button, the
vehicle speed will increase until you release the
button or apply the brake. Unless you want to go faster,
do not press and hold the RES/ACC button.
