(100 m) behind your vehicle.
Horn

wheel pad to sound the horn.
Tilt and Telescopic Steering Wheel
A tilt and telescope wheel lets you adjust the
steering wheel before you drive. The steering
wheel can be raised to the highest level to give
your legs more room when you enter and exit the
vehicle.
The lever that lets you tilt and telescope the
steering wheel is located on the left side of the

9(Off):Move the lever to this position to
turn off the windshield wipers.
&(Intermittent; Speed Sensitive Wipers):

position, turn the intermittent adjust band with
this symbol on it up or down to select a shorter or
longer delay between wiping cycles. To the left
of the adjust band are bars, increasing in size from
bottom to top, that indicate the frequency of the
wipes. Smaller bars mean the wipers movement is
less frequent. Larger bars mean the movement
is more frequent.
6(Low Speed):Move the lever up to the
rst setting past intermittent, for steady wiping at
low speed.
1(High Speed):Move the lever up to the
second setting past intermittent, for wiping
at a high speed.

Cruise Control
Cruise control lets you maintain a speed of about
25 mph (40 km/h) or more without keeping
your foot on the accelerator. This can really help
on long trips. Cruise control does not work at
speeds below 25 mph (40 km/h).
{CAUTION:
Cruise control can be dangerous where
you cannot drive safely at a steady speed.
So, do not use your cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on
slippery roads.
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.
The cruise control
buttons are located on
the steering wheel.
I(On/Off):PressIto turn the cruise control
system on and off.

Headlamps
The band on the lever on the outboard side of the
steering column operates the exterior lamps.
The exterior lamp control has the following four
positions:

to turn on the headlamps, parking lamps, and
taillamps.
;(Parking Lamps):Turn the band to this
position to turn on the parking lamps and
taillamps only.AUTO (Automatic Headlamp System):Turn the
band to this position to automatically turn on
the Daytime Running Lamps during daytime, and

at night.
P(Off/On):Turn the band to this position to turn
on the Automatic Headlamp System. In Canada,
this position only works when a vehicle is in
the PARK (P) position.
To turn on the Automatic Headlamp System, turn
the switch to off/on. To turn them off, turn the
switch to off/on again. This is a momentary control
switch that springs back when released. The
Automatic Headlamp System always turns on at
the beginning of an ignition cycle.

go on when you press the unlock symbol button or
the horn symbol on the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) system transmitter.
The lamps inside the vehicle stay on for about
20 seconds after the key is removed from
the ignition to provide light as you exit.
