Content Theft-Deterrent
Your vehicle is equipped with a content
theft-deterrent alarm system.
With this system, the
security light in the
instrument panel cluster
will ash as you open
the door if your
ignition is off.
This light reminds you to activate the
theft-deterrent system. Here is how to do it:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch
or the remote keyless entry transmitter. The
security light will illuminate to inform the driver
the system is arming. If a door is open when
the doors are locked, the security light
will ash.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 the delayed locking feature is turned on,
the theft-deterrent system will not start
the arming process until the last door is
closed and the delay timer has expired.
SeeDelayed Locking on page 102.
If a locked door is opened without the key or
the remote keyless entry transmitter, 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. SeeDIC Vehicle Customization
on page 234.
Remember, the theft-deterrent system will not
activate if you lock the doors with the vehicle’s key
or use the manual door lock. It activates only if
you use a power door lock switch with the
door open, or with the remote keyless entry
transmitter. You should also remember that you
can start your vehicle with the correct ignition key if
the alarm has been set off.

Automatic Transmission Operation
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
transmission and features an electronic shift
position indicator located within the instrument
panel cluster.
There are several different positions for your
shift lever.
PARK (P):This position locks your drive wheels. It
is the best position to use when you start your
engine because your vehicle cannot move easily.
{CAUTION:
It is dangerous to get out of your vehicle
if the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P)
with the parking brake rmly set. Your
vehicle can roll.
Do not leave your vehicle when the engine
is running unless you have to. If you have
left the engine running, the vehicle can
move suddenly. You or others could be
injured. To be sure your vehicle will not
move, even when you are on fairly level
ground, always set your parking brake
and move the shift lever to PARK (P). See
Shifting Into Park (P) on page 134.Ifyou
are pulling a trailer, seeTowing a Trailer
on page 374.

Drive vehicle is designed to constantly send
your engine’s driving power to all four wheels for
extra traction. To get the most out of Full-Time

An arrow on the
instrument panel
cluster will ash in the
direction of the turn
or lane change.
As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the
arrows ash more quickly than normal, a signal
bulb may be burned out and other drivers will not
see your turn signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an
accident. If the arrows do not go on at all when you
signal a turn, check for burned-out bulbs and a
blown fuse. SeeInstrument Panel Fuse Block on
page 504andUnderhood Fuse Block on page 507.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. SeeDIC
Warnings and Messages on page 226. 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.
179

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.
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.
6(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.
6(Low Speed):For steady wiping at low
speed, turn the band away from you to the
rst solid band past the delay settings.
1(High Speed):For high-speed wiping, turn
the band further, to the second solid band past the
delay settings.
9(Off):To stop the wipers, move the band
to off.
Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper
blades before using them. If they are frozen to the
windshield, carefully loosen or thaw them. If
your blades do become worn or damaged, get
new blades or blade inserts.
