Reducing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to reduce your speed while using
cruise control:
Press the SET/CST button until you reach the lower
speed you want, then release it.
To slow down in very small amounts, push the
SET/CST button briey. Each time you do this,
the vehicle will slow down approximately
1 mph (1.6 km/h).
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed.
When you take your foot off the pedal, your vehicle will
slow down to the cruise control speed you set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control will work on hills depends
upon your speed, load and the steepness of the hills.
When going up steep hills, you may have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. When going
downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear to
keep your speed down. Applying the brake or shifting into
a lower gear will take you out of cruise control. If you
need to apply the brake or shift to a lower gear due to the
grade of the downhill slope, you may not want to attempt
to use your cruise control feature.
Ending Cruise Control
To turn off the cruise control, step lightly on the brake
pedal, or press the CRUISE ON/OFF button on the
steering wheel.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition, your
cruise control set speed memory is erased.

This feature activates the headlamps and parking lamps
after the windshield wipers have been in use for
approximately six seconds. To operate, the Twilight
Sentinel
®feature must be turned on.
When the exterior lamp control is in the off position or
parking lamp position and the wiper control is on delay,
LO or HI, the HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message
will appear on the Driver Information Center (DIC).

headlamps will immediately turn off. The wiper-activated
headlamps will also turn off if the Twilight Sentinel
®or
the windshield wipers are turned off.
Lamps on Reminder
A warning chime will sound if the exterior lamp control
is left on in either the headlamp or parking lamp position
and the driver’s door is opened with the ignition off.
Daytime Running Lamps
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front of your vehicle during the
day. DRL can be helpful in many different driving
conditions, but they can be especially helpful in the short
periods after dawn and before sunset. Fully functional
daytime running lamps are required on all vehicles
rst sold in Canada.
The DRL system will make the low-beam headlamps
come on at reduced intensity when the following
conditions are met:
It is still daylight and the ignition is on,
the exterior lamp control is in the off position and
the transaxle is not in PARK (P).
When DRL are on, only your high-beam headlamps at
reduced brightness will be on. No other exterior
lamps such as the parking lamps, taillamps, etc. will be
on when the DRL are being used. Your instrument
panel will not be lit up either.

in the button and the fog lamp light on the instrument
panel cluster will come on to indicate that the fog lamps
and the parking lamps are on.
Press the button again to turn them off.
If you turn on the high-beam headlamps, the fog lamps
will turn off. They will 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 next
to the exterior lamp
control. It automatically
turns the lamps on and off
by sensing how dark it
is outside.
To operate the Twilight Sentinel
®, leave the exterior
lamp control in the off position and move the TWILIGHT
lever to any position but OFF.
3-20

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 is dark enough outside and the Twilight
Sentinel
®lever is off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED
message will display on the Driver Information Center
(DIC). This message informs the driver that turning
on the exterior lamps is recommended (it is become
dark enough outside to require the headlamps and/or
other exterior lamps). Turning on the Twilight
Sentinel
®or turning the exterior lamp control to the
headlamp position will remove the HEADLAMPS
SUGGESTED message.
Light Sensor
The light sensor for the DRL and the Twilight
Sentinel®is located in the center of the front defogger
grille. If you cover the sensor, it will read “dark” and the
exterior lamps or the HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED
message will be displayed whenever the ignition is on.
