The system can be disabled through
the Driver Information Center (DIC).
See “Park Assist” under DIC
Operation and Displays on
page 3-41 for more information.
When the System Does
Not Seem to Work Properly
If the URPA system will not activate
due to a temporary condition, the
message PARK ASSIST OFF will be
displayed on the DIC and a red light
will be shown on the rear URPA display when the shift lever is
moved into R (Reverse). This may
occur under the following
conditions:
The driver disables the system.
The parking brake pedal is
depressed.
The ultrasonic sensors are not
clean. Keep the vehicle’s rear
bumper free of mud, dirt,
snow, ice and slush. For cleaning
instructions, see
Washing Your
Vehicle on page 5-86 .
A trailer was attached to the
vehicle, or a bicycle or an
object was hanging out of the
liftgate during the last drive cycle,
the red light may illuminate in
the rear display. Once the
attached object is removed,
URPA will return to normal
operation.
A tow bar is attached to the
vehicle.
The vehicle’s bumper is
damaged. Take the vehicle to
your dealer/retailer to repair
the system.
Other conditions may affect
system performance, such
as vibrations from a jackhammer
or the compression of air
brakes on a very large truck.
If the system is still disabled, after
driving forward at least 15 mph
(25 km/h), take the vehicle to your
dealer/retailer.

Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control will work
on hills depends upon the vehicle
speed, load, and the steepness
of the hills. When going up steep
hills, you might have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain the
vehicle speed. When going downhill,
you might have to brake or shift
to a lower gear to keep the vehicle
speed down. When the brakes
are applied the cruise control
is disengaged.
Ending Cruise Control
There are three ways to end cruise
control:
Step lightly on the brake pedal.
Press the[button.
Press theTbutton.
Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed memory
is erased when the cruise control or
the ignition is turned off.

Delayed Headlamps
Delayed headlamps provide a period
of exterior lighting as you leave
the area around your vehicle. This
feature is activated when the
headlamps are on due to the
automatic headlamps control
feature, and when the ignition is
turned off. The headlamps remain
on until the exterior lamps control is
moved to the parking lamps
position or until the pre-selected
delayed headlamp lighting period
has ended.
If the ignition is turned off with the
headlamps switch in the parking
lamps or headlamps position,
the delayed headlamps cycle will
not occur.
To disable the delayed headlamps
feature or change the time of
delay, seeDIC Vehicle
Customization on page 3-57.
Daytime Running Lamps
(DRL)/Automatic
Headlamp System
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can
make it easier for others to see
the front of your vehicle during the
day. Fully functional daytime
running lamps are required on all
vehicles rst sold in Canada.
A light sensor on top of the
instrument panel makes the DRL
work, so do not cover the sensor.
The DRL system’s automatic control
makes the DRL lights come on when
the following conditions are met:
The ignition is in the ON/RUN
position.
The exterior lamps control is
in AUTO.
The engine is running.
Instrument Panel 3-13

When the DRL are on, only the DRL
lights will be on. The headlamps,
taillamps, sidemarker, and other
lamps will not be on. The instrument
panel and cluster will also not be lit.
When it is dark enough outside, the
DRL lights will turn off and the
headlamps and parking lamps will
turn on. The other lamps that
come on with the headlamps will
also come on.
When it is bright enough outside,
the headlamps will go off and
the DRL will come on.
The regular headlamp system
should be turned on when it is
needed.Adaptive Forward
Lighting System
Vehicles with the Adaptive Forward
Lighting System (AFS) have
headlamps that swivel to the left or
right when making a turn to
provide better lighting. To enable
AFS, set the exterior lamp switch to
the AUTO position. Move the
switch out of the AUTO position to
turn off the system. SeeExterior
Lamps on page 3-12.
AFS operates when the vehicle
speed is greater than 2 mph
(3 km/h). AFS does not operate
when the transmission is in
R (Reverse). AFS is not immediately
operable after starting the vehicle;
driving a short distance is required
to calibrate the AFS.
Fog Lamps
Use the fog lamps for better vision
in foggy or misty conditions.
The fog lamps button is located on
the exterior lamps control to the
left of the steering column.
#(Fog Lamps):Press the exterior
lamps button to turn the fog lamps
on or off. A light comes on in
the instrument panel cluster when
the fog lamps are in use. The
ignition must be on for the fog lamps
to work.
When the headlamps are changed
to high-beam, the fog lamps will
turn off. The fog lamps come back
on again when the high-beam
headlamps are turned off.
Some localities have laws that
require the headlamps to be
on along with the fog lamps.

Entry Lighting
For vehicles with courtesy lamps,
they come on and stay on for a set
time whenever the unlock symbol
is pressed on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) Transmitter, if the
vehicle has one.If a door is opened, the lamps stay
on while it is open and then turn
off automatically about 25 seconds
after the door is closed. If the
unlock symbol is pressed and no
door is opened, the lamps turn
off after about 20 seconds.
Entry lighting includes a feature
called theater dimming. With theater
dimming, the lamps do not turn off at
the end of the delay time. Instead,
they slowly dim after the delay time
until they go out. The delay time is
canceled if the ignition key is turned
to ON/RUN or the power door lock
switch is pressed. The lamps will dim
right away.
When the ignition is on, illuminated
entry is inactive, which means
the courtesy lamps will not come on
unless a door is opened.

Warning Lights,
Gages, and Indicators
Warning lights and gages can
signal that something is wrong
before it becomes serious enough
to cause an expensive repair or
replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gages could
prevent injury.
Warning lights come on when there
may be or is a problem with one
of the vehicle’s functions. Some
warning lights come on briey when
the engine is started to indicate
they are working.Gages can indicate when there may
be or is a problem with one of the
vehicle’s functions. Often gages and
warning lights work together to
indicate a problem with the vehicle.
When one of the warning lights
comes on and stays on while
driving, or when one of the gages
shows there may be a problem,
check the section that explains what
to do. Follow this manual’s advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be
costly and even dangerous.
