Curb View Assist
If your vehicle has the memory package, the
outside mirrors are able to perform the curb view
assist mirror function. This feature may be
useful in allowing the driver to view the curb when
parallel parking. This feature will cause the
passenger’s and/or driver’s mirror to tilt to a
preselected position when the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R).
The passenger’s and/or driver’s mirror will return
to its original position when the vehicle is
shifted out of REVERSE (R), or the ignition is
turned off or to LOCK.
This feature can be turned on or off through the
Driver Information Center (DIC). SeeDriver
Information Center (DIC) on page 245.
Heated Mirrors
The button to turn the heated mirrors on or off is
located on the climate control panel. Press
this button to warm the driver’s and passenger’s
outside rearview mirrors to help clear them of
ice, snow, and condensation.See “Rear Window Defogger” underDual
Automatic Climate Control System on page 220
for more information.
Convex Mirror
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like
other vehicles) look farther away than
they really are. If you cut too sharply into
the right lane, you could hit a vehicle on
your right. Check your inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
The passenger’s side mirror may have convex
glass. A convex mirror’s surface is curved so more
can be seen from the driver’s seat.
Your vehicle may also have a turn signal indicator
on the mirror. An arrow on the mirror will ash
in the direction of the turn or lane change.

Rainsense™ II Wipers
Your vehicle has Rainsense™ II windshield
wipers. These wipers automatically turn on when
a sensor, mounted next to the inside rearview
mirror, detects moisture on the windshield. When
active, these wipers are able to detect moisture
on the windshield and automatically turn on
the wipers.
To turn on the Rainsense™ feature, the wipers
must be set to one of the ve delay settings. Each
of the ve settings adjusts the sensitivity of the
rain sensor.
Since different drivers have different setting
preferences, it is recommended that the mid-range
setting, position three, be used initially. For
more wipes, select the higher settings; for fewer
wipes, select the lower settings located closer
to the off position on the multifunction lever.The rain sensor will automatically control the
frequency of the wipes from off to high speed
according to the weather conditions. The wipers
can be left in a Rainsense™ mode even when it is
not raining.
When Rainsense™ II is active, the headlamps
will turn on automatically after approximately
eight wipes. The headlamps will turn off if the wiper
switch is set to a delay position, and there have
been no wipes for approximately three minutes, or
if the wiper switch is turned to the off position. If
it is dark outside, the headlamps will remain on.
Notice:Going through an automatic car wash
with the wipers on can damage them. Turn
the wipers off when going through an
automatic car wash.

IntellliBeam™ Intelligent High-Beam
Headlamp Control System
If your vehicle has this feature, be sure to read
this entire section before using it.
IntellliBeam™ is an enhancement to your vehicle’s
headlamp system. Using a digital light sensor
on your rearview mirror, this system will turn the
vehicle’s high-beam headlamps on and off
according to surrounding traffic conditions.
The IntellliBeam™ system will turn your high-beam
headlamps on when it is dark enough, there is
no other traffic present, and the IntellliBeam
system is enabled.
Turning On and Enabling IntellliBeam™
Press and release the IntellliBeam™ button on the
inside rear view mirror. The IntellliBeam™ indicator
on the mirror will turn on to let you know the system
has been turned on. Once the system has been
turned on, it will remain on each time the vehicle is
started. Additionally, the IntellliBeam system must
be enabled.To enable the IntellliBeam™ system, turn the
exterior lamp control to AUTO, with the turn
signal/multifunction lever in its neutral position.
The High-Beam On Light will appear on the
instrument panel cluster when the high-beams
are on. SeeHighbeam On Light on page 243.
Driving with IntellliBeam™
IntellliBeam™ will only activate your high-beams
when driving over 20 mph (32 km/h).
The high-beam headlamps will remain on, under
the automatic control of IntellliBeam™, until any of
the following situations occur:
The system detects an approaching vehicle’s
headlamps.
The system detects a preceding vehicle’s
taillamps.
The outside light is bright enough that
high-beam headlamps are not required.
The vehicle’s speed drops below
15 mph (24 km/h).
207

The headlamp stalk is moved forward to
the high-beam position. SeeHeadlamp
High/Low-Beam Changer on page 197.
When either of these conditions occur, the
IntellliBeam™ feature will be disabled and the
IntellliBeam™ light in the mirror will turn off
until the high-beam stalk is returned to
the neutral position.
If IntellliBeam™ was using low-beams prior to
this action, the IntellliBeam™ feature will be
temporarily disabled until the stalk is returned
to the neutral position.
The exterior lamp control is turned to any
setting except AUTO.
When this occurs, IntellliBeam™ will be
disabled until the control is turned back to the
AUTO position.
The IntellliBeam™ system is turned off at the
inside rearview mirror.IntellliBeam™ may not turn off the high-beams if
the system cannot detect other vehicle’s lamps
because of any of the following:
The others vehicle’s lamp(s) are missing,
damaged, obstructed from view or otherwise
undetected.
The other vehicle’s lamp(s) are covered with
dirt, snow and/or road spray.
The other vehicle’s lamp(s) cannot be detected
due to dense exhaust, smoke, fog, snow, road
spray, mist or other airborne obstructions.
Your vehicle’s windshield is dirty, cracked or
obstructed by something that blocks the
view of the IntellliBeam light sensor.
Your vehicle’s windshield is covered with ice,
dirt, haze or other obstructions.
Your vehicle is loaded such that the front end
of the vehicle points upward, causing the
IntellliBeam sensor to aim high and not detect
headlamps and taillamps.
You are driving on winding or hilly roads.
You may need to manually disable or cancel the
high-beam headlamps by turning the low-beam
headlamps on, if any of the above conditions exist.

The recirculation mode cannot be selected while in
the defrost mode. The air conditioning compressor
will run automatically in this setting, unless the
outside temperature is close to freezing. Do not
drive the vehicle until all the windows are clear.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog from the rear window.
<(Rear Window Defogger):The rear window
defogger will turn off automatically after it has
been activated. The defogger can also be turned
off by pressing the button again or by turning
off the engine. Do not drive the vehicle until all the
windows are clear.
If your vehicle has heated outside rearview
mirrors, the mirrors will heat to help clear fog or
frost from the surface of the mirror when the
rear window defog button is pressed.
Notice:Do not use a razor blade or sharp
object to clear the inside rear window. Do not
adhere anything to the defogger grid lines
in the rear glass. These actions may damage
the rear defogger. Repairs would not be
covered by your warranty.
Outlet Adjustment
Use the air outlets located in the center and on
the side of your instrument panel to direct
the airow.
Operation Tips

Keep the hood and front air inlets free of ice,
snow, or any other obstruction (such as
leaves). The heater and defroster will work far
better, reducing the chance of fogging the
inside of your windows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather,
press the fan up button to the maximum
fan level before driving. This helps clear the
intake ducts of snow and moisture, and
reduces the chance of fogging the inside of
your window.
Keep the air path under the front seats
clear of objects. This helps air to circulate
throughout your vehicle.
Adding outside equipment to the front of your
vehicle, such as hood-air deectors, may
affect the performance of the heating and air
conditioning system. Check with your dealer
before adding equipment to the outside of your
vehicle.
