Convenience Net
The convenience net attaches to the oor and back wall
of the trunk using four anchor points allowing for two
positions. The net can be attached like a hammock
or anchored to lay at across the oor of the trunk. Put
small loads, like grocery bags, behind the net. It can
help keep them from falling over during sharp turns or
quick starts and stops.
The net is not for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the
trunk as far forward as you can. When not using the net,
hook the net to the tabs securing it to the sill plate.
Sunroof
Your vehicle may have a power sunroof.
The sunroof controls
are located on the
overhead console.
@(Half Open):Turn the control clockwise to
this position to open the glass panel half way. The
sunshade will open with the glass panel, or it can be
opened manually.
P(Comfort Stop):Turn the control clockwise to
this position to open the glass panel about three
quarters of the way open. The sunshade will open with
the glass panel, or it can be opened manually.
This is called the comfort stop position. It provides less
wind noise than the full-open position.
A(Full Open):Turn the control clockwise to this
position to open the glass panel all the way. The
sunshade will open with the glass panel, or it can be
opened manually.
I(Vent):Turn the control counterclockwise to this
position to use the vent feature. The glass panel
will tilt upward from the vehicle. The sunshade must be

TRANS FLUID LIFE/Transmission Fluid Life
(Automatic Transmission):If you select this item, the
percentage of remaining transmission uid life is
displayed. If you see 99% Trans Fluid Life on the
display, that means that 99% of the current transmission
uid life remains.
When the transmission uid life is depleted, the Change
Transmission Fluid message will appear on the
display. You should change the transmission uid as
soon as possible within 200 miles. Be sure to keep
a written record of the mileage and date of the uid
change so you will have it for future reference.
When you reset the Change Transmission Fluid
message by clearing it from the display, you still must
reset the transmission uid life monitor separately.
For more information on resetting the transmission uid
life monitor, seeAutomatic Transmission Fluid on
page 5-25.DIC Main Menu

Steering in Emergencies
There are times when steering can be more effective
than braking. For example, you come over a hill and nd
a truck stopped in your lane, or a car suddenly pulls
out from nowhere, or a child darts out from between
parked cars and stops right in front of you. You can
avoid these problems by braking — if you can stop in
time. But sometimes you can not; there is not room.
That is the time for evasive action — steering around
the problem.
Your vehicle can perform very well in emergencies like
these. First apply your brakes.
SeeBraking on page 4-6. It is better to remove as
much speed as you can from a possible collision.
Then steer around the problem, to the left or right
depending on the space available.An emergency like this requires close attention and a
quick decision. If you are holding the steering wheel at
the recommended 9 and 3 o’clock positions, you
can turn it a full 180 degrees very quickly without
removing either hand. But you have to act fast, steer
quickly, and just as quickly straighten the wheel
once you have avoided the object.
The fact that such emergency situations are always
possible is a good reason to practice defensive driving
at all times and wear safety belts properly.
