Content Theft-Deterrent
Your vehicle has a content theft-deterrent alarm
system.
This is the security light.
To activate the theft-deterrent system, do the
following:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the remote keyless entry
(RKE) transmitter. The security light should
come on and stay on.
3. Close all doors. The security light should go
off after about 30 seconds. The alarm is not
armed until the security light goes off.
If a locked door is opened without using the RKE
transmitter, a ten second pre-alarm will occur.
The horn will chirp and the lights will ash.If the door is not unlocked by pressing the unlock
button on the remote keyless entry transmitter
during the ten second pre-alarm, the alarm will
go off. The headlamps and parking lamps will ash
for two minutes, and the horn will sound for
30 seconds, then will turn off to save the battery
power. You can choose different feedback options
for the alarm. SeeDriver Information Center
(DIC) on page 244Driver Information Center (DIC).
Remember, the theft-deterrent system will not
activate if you lock the doors with a key, the
manual door lock, or the power door lock switch.
It activates only if you use the RKE transmitter.
You should also remember that you can start your
vehicle with the correct ignition key if the alarm
has been set off.
135

Here is how to avoid setting off the alarm by
accident:
If you do not want to activate the theft-deterrent
system, the vehicle should be locked with the
door key after the doors are closed.
Always unlock a door with the RKE transmitter.
Unlocking a door any other way will set off
the alarm.
If you set off the alarm by accident, turn off the
alarm by pressing the unlock button on the
RKE transmitter. The alarm will not stop if you try
to unlock a door any other way.
Testing the Alarm
The alarm can be tested by following these steps:
1. From inside the vehicle, lower the driver’s
window and open the driver’s door.
2. Activate the system by locking the doors with
the RKE transmitter.
3. Get out of the vehicle, close the door and wait
for the security light to go out.
4. Then reach in through the window, unlock the
door with the manual door lock and open the
door. This should set off the alarm.While the alarm is set, the power door unlock
switch will not work.
If the alarm does not sound when it should but the
headlamps ash, check to see if the horn works.
The horn fuse may be blown. To replace the fuse,
seeFuses and Circuit Breakers on page 538.
If the alarm does not sound or the headlamps do
not ash, the vehicle should be serviced by
your dealer.

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

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 244.

Tilt Wheel
Your vehicle has a tilt wheel, that lets you adjust
the steering wheel before driving. Raising it to
the highest level gives more room to exit and enter
your vehicle.
The tilt steering wheel lever is located on the
lower left side of the column.
To tilt the wheel, hold the steering wheel and pull
the lever. Then move the steering wheel to a
comfortable position and release the lever to lock
the wheel in place.
Turn Signal/Multifunction Lever
The lever on the left side of the steering column
includes the following:
G(Turn and Lane Change Signals):See
Turn and Lane-Change Signals on page 194.
53(Headlamp High/Low-Beam
Changer):SeeHeadlamp High/Low-Beam
Changer on page 195.
Flash-to-Pass. SeeFlash-to-Pass on page 195.

Turn Signal On Chime
If your turn signal is left on for more than
3/4 of a mile (1.2 km), a chime will sound at
each ash of the turn signal and the message
TURN SIGNAL ON will also appear in the DIC.
To turn the chime and message off, move the
turn signal lever to the off position.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
53(Headlamp High/Low Beam
Changer):To change the headlamps from low to
high beam, push the lever toward the instrument
panel. To return to low-beam headlamps, pull
the multifunction lever toward you. Then release it.
When the high beams
are on, this indicator
light on the instrument
panel cluster will also
be on.
Flash-to-Pass
This feature lets you 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 in the automatic position.
To use it, pull the turn signal lever toward you,
then release it.
If your headlamps are in the automatic position or
on low beam, your high-beam headlamps will
turn on. They will stay on as long as you hold the
lever toward you. The high-beam indicator on
the instrument panel cluster will come on. Release
the lever to return to normal operation.

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
rainsensor.
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 rainsensor 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.
