Flash-To-Pass Feature.
Information for these features is on the pages following.
Turn and Lane-Change Signals
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster and in the
outside rearview mirror
ashes in the direction of
the turn or lane change.
Move the lever all the way up or down to signal a
turn. The lever returns automatically when the turn is
complete. If you momentarily press and release the lever,
the turn signal will ash 3 times.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to ash to
signal a lane change. Hold it there until the lane change is
complete.
The lever returns to its starting position when it is
released.
If after signaling a turn or lane change the arrow
ashes rapidly or does not come on, a signal bulb
may be burned out.
Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb is not burned out,
check the fuse. SeeRear Underseat Fuse Block on
page 5-98.

Driving with IntelliBeam™
IntelliBeam only activates the high-beams when driving
over 20 mph (32 km/h).
The high-beam headlamps remain on, under the
automatic control of IntelliBeam, until any of the
following situations occur:
The system detects an approaching vehicle’s
headlamps.
The system detects a preceding vehicle’s taillamps.
The outside light is bright enough that high-beam
headlamps are not required.
The vehicle’s speed drops below 15 mph (24 km/h).
The headlamp stalk is moved forward to the
high-beam position or the ash-to-pass feature is
used. SeeHeadlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
on page 3-9andFlash-to-Pass on page 3-13.
When either of these conditions occur, the
IntelliBeam feature is disabled and the IntelliBeam
light in the mirror turns off until the high-beam
stalk is returned to the neutral position.
If IntelliBeam was using low-beams prior to this
action, the IntelliBeam feature is temporarily disabled
until the stalk is returned to the neutral position.
The exterior lamp control is turned to any setting
except AUTO.
When this occurs, IntelliBeam is disabled until the
control is turned back to the AUTO position.
The IntelliBeam system is turned off at the inside
rearview mirror.
IntelliBeam might not turn off the high-beams if the
system cannot detect other vehicle’s lamps because of
any of the following:
The other vehicle’s lamp(s) are missing, damaged,
obstructed from view, or otherwise undetected.
The other vehicle’s lamp(s) are covered with dirt,
snow, and/or road spray.
The other vehicle’s lamp(s) cannot be detected due
to dense exhaust, smoke, fog, snow, road spray,
mist, or other airborne obstructions.
Your vehicle’s windshield is dirty, cracked, or
obstructed by something that blocks the view of
the IntelliBeam light sensor.
Your vehicle’s windshield is covered with ice, dirt,
haze, or other obstructions.
Your vehicle is loaded such that the front end of
the vehicle points upward, causing the IntelliBeam
sensor to aim high and not detect headlamps and
taillamps.
You are driving on winding or hilly roads.

Cruise Control Light
This light comes on
whenever the cruise
control is set.
The light goes out when the cruise control is turned
off. SeeCruise Control on page 3-16andAdaptive
Cruise Control on page 3-19for more information.
Highbeam On Light
This light comes on when
the high-beam headlamps
are in use.
SeeHeadlamp High/Low-Beam Changer on page 3-9
for more information.
Fuel Gage
The fuel gage shows
approximately how
much fuel is in the tank.
It works only when
the engine is on.
An arrow on the fuel gage indicates the side of the
vehicle the fuel door is on.
If the fuel supply gets low, the FUEL LEVEL LOW
message appears in the Driver Information Center
and a single chime sounds. SeeDIC Warnings
and Messages on page 3-73for more information.
3-66

If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error cannot
be corrected, contact your dealer/retailer. If the radio
displays an error message, write it down and provide
it to your dealer/retailer when reporting the problem.
Using the Auxiliary Input Jack
The radio system has an auxiliary input jack located
on the lower right side of the faceplate. This is not an
audio output; do not plug the headphone set into the
front auxiliary input jack. You can however, connect
an external audio device such as an iPod™, laptop
computer, MP3 player, CD changer, or cassette tape
player, etc. to the auxiliary input jack for use as another
source for audio listening.
Drivers are encouraged to set up any auxiliary device
while the vehicle is in P (Park). SeeDefensive Driving on
page 4-2for more information on driver distraction.
To use a portable audio player, connect a 3.5 mm
(1/8 inch) cable to the radio’s front auxiliary input jack.
When connecting an auxiliary device, the radioautomatically detects the device and “Aux Input Device”
displays. The device begins playing audio over the
vehicle speakers. If an auxiliary device has already been
connected, the device does not begin playing audio until
the radio’s CD/AUX button is pressed.O(Power/Volume):Turn to increase or decrease the
volume of the portable player. You might need to do
additional volume adjustments from the portable device.
BAND:Press to listen to the radio when a portable
audio device is playing. The portable audio device
continues playing, so you might want to stop it or
power it off.
CD/AUX (CD/Auxiliary):Press to play a CD when a
portable audio device is playing. Press again and
the system begins playing audio from the connected
portable audio player. If a portable audio player is
not connected, “No Aux Input Device Found” displays.
