Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
23(Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer):To
change the headlamps from low to high beam, pull
the multifunction lever all the way toward you. Then
release it.
When the high beams
are on, this light on
the instrument panel
cluster also will be on.
Flash-to-Pass
This feature allows you to use your high-beam
headlamps to signal a driver in front of you
that you want to pass. It works even if your
headlamps are off.
To use it, pull the turn signal lever toward you, but
not so far that you hear it click.If your headlamps are off or on low-beam, your
high-beam headlamps will turn on and stay on as
long as you hold the lever toward you and the
high-beam indicator on the instrument panel will
come on. Release the lever to turn the high-beam
headlamps off.
Windshield Wipers
You control the windshield wipers by turning the
band with the wiper symbol on it.
8(Mist):For a single wiping cycle, turn the
band to mist. Hold it there until the wipers start,
then let go. The wipers will stop after one wipe.
If you want more wipes, hold the band on
mist longer.
Delay:You can set the wiper speed for a long or
short delay between wipes. This can be very
useful in light rain or snow. Turn the band
to choose the delay time. The closer to the top of
the lever, the shorter the delay.

Setting Cruise Control
{CAUTION:
If you leave your cruise control on when
you are not using cruise, you might hit a
button and go into cruise when you do not
want to. You could be startled and even
lose control. Keep the cruise control switch
off until you want to use cruise control.
1. Move the cruise control switch to on.
2. Get up to the speed you want.
3. Press in the set button at the end of the lever
and release it.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
The CRUISE light on the instrument panel
will illuminate when the cruise control is engaged.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired
speed and then you apply the brake. This, of
course, disengages the cruise control. But
you don’t need to reset it.
Once you’re going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or
more, you can move the cruise control switch from
on to resume/accelerate briefly.
You’ll go right back up to your chosen speed and
stay there.
If you hold the switch at resume/accelerate briefly,
the vehicle will keep going faster until you
release the switch or apply the brake. So unless
you want to go faster, don’t hold the switch at
resume/accelerate.
152

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
want 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. Of course, applying the brake
takes you out of cruise control. Many drivers find
this to be too much trouble and don’t use
cruise control on steep hills.
Ending Cruise Control
There are three ways to turn off the cruise control:
•Step lightly on the brake pedal.
•Move the cruise control switch to off.
•If your vehicle has the StabiliTrak®feature,
cruise control will deactivate if road conditions
cause StabiliTrak
®to activate.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition,
your cruise control set speed memory is erased.
Exterior Lamps
The control on the
driver’s side of your
instrument panel
operates the exterior
lamps.
The exterior lamp control has four positions:
Ø (Defeat):Turn the control to this position to
turn off the DRL. Vehicles first sold in Canada
cannot turn off the DRL.
i(Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)):Turning
the control to this position selects the DRL.
When the vehicle is shifted out of PARK (P), the
DRL will turn on, unless defeated. When the
DRL are active, the DRL indicator will illuminate.
154

;(Parking Lamps):Turn the control to this
position to turn on the parking lamps, together with
the following:
•Instrument Panel Lights
•Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) (Canada)
•Sidemarker Lamps
•Taillamps
•License Plate Lamps
If the DRL are active when the control is turned to
this position, the DRL will turn off.
For vehicles first sold in Canada, the DRL will
remain active along with the lamps mentioned
above.
5(Headlamps):Turn the control to this position
to turn on the headlamps together with the parking
lamps and turn off the daytime running lamps.
You can switch your headlamps from high to
low-beam by pulling the turn signal/high-beam
lever toward you.
A circuit breaker protects your headlamps. If you
have an electrical overload, your headlamps
will flicker on and off. Have your headlamp wiring
checked right away if this happens.
Headlamps on Reminder
A reminder chime will sound when your control is
turned to the headlamps or parking lamps position,
your key is out of the ignition, and your driver’s door
is open. To disable the chime, turn the control to the
Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) position and then
back to the parking lamps or headlamps position.

You can use the dome
lamp override button,
located below the
exterior lamp control, to
override the automatic
operation of the
dome lamps.
To turn the automatic operation of the lamps off,
press the button. The dome lamps will remain
off while a door is open. To return the lamps to
automatic operation, press the button again.

transmitter to unlock the vehicle.
Entry Lighting
Your vehicle is equipped with an illuminated entry
feature.
When a door is opened, the dome lamps will
come on if the dome override button is in the out
position. If the dome override button is pressed
in, the lamps will not come on. When the door is
closed, the interior lamps will remain on for a
period of 15 seconds or until the vehicle is started.

for a period of 40 seconds when you remove
the key from the ignition. The lamps will not come
on if the dome override button is pressed in.

located next to each lamp. To turn them off, press
the button again.

if they are left on after the ignition is turned off.

and all other interior lamps after 10 minutes.
Accessory Power Outlet(s)
With accessory power outlets you can plug in
auxiliary electrical equipment such as a cellular
telephone or CB radio.
Your vehicle may have two accessory power
outlets. If your vehicle has a cigarette lighter/
accessory power outlet, it is located on the driver’s
side of the front storage compartment. The
other accessory power outlet is located on the
passenger’s side of the front storage compartment.
To use the outlet, lift the cover. When not using
it, always close the cover.Certain power accessory plugs may not be
compatible to the accessory power outlet and
could result in blown vehicle or adapter fuses.
If you experience a problem, see your dealer
for additional information on the accessory
power plugs.
Notice:Adding any electrical equipment to
your vehicle may damage it or keep other
components from working as they should.
The repairs would not be covered by your
warranty. Do not use equipment exceeding
maximum amperage rating of 20 amperes.
Check with your dealer before adding electrical
equipment.
When adding electrical equipment, be sure to
follow the proper installation instructions included
with the equipment.
Notice:Improper use of the power outlet can
cause damage not covered by your warranty.
