moving. The sudden movement could startle and
confuse you, or make you push a pedal when you
do not want to. Adjust the driver’s seat only when
the vehicle is not moving.
{CAUTION:
If either seatback is not locked, it could move
forward in a sudden stop or crash. That could
cause injury to the person sitting there. Always
push and pull on the seatbacks to be sure they
are locked.
The seats have manual reclining seatbacks. The lever
used to operate them is located on the outboard side of
the seats.To adjust the seatback, lean slightly forward to lift your
weight off the seatback. Pull completely up on the lever
until it stops, and lean back to position the seatback to
where you want it. Release the lever to lock the seatback
into place.

Testing the Alarm
To test the system:
1. Make sure the trunk lid/hatch is latched.
2. Lower the window on the driver door.
3. Manually arm the system.
4. Close the doors and wait 30 seconds.
5. Reach through the open window and manually pull
the release lever on the oor.
6. Press the unlock button on the transmitter to turn
off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound, check to see if the horn
works. The horn fuse may be blown. SeeFuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 5-103. If the horn works,
but the alarm does not go off, see your dealer/retailer.
Disarming the System
Press the unlock button on the keyless access
transmitter or squeeze the door handle sensor while
the transmitter is near the vehicle to unlock a door.
Unlocking a door any other way sets off the alarm.
If the alarm sounds, press the unlock button on the
keyless access transmitter to disarm it.
Do not leave the key or device that disarms or
deactivates the theft deterrent system in the vehicle.

2-19

Immobilizer Operation
The vehicle has a passive theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed when the ignition is
turned off.
The immobilization system is disarmed when the ignition
is turned to OFF/ACCESSORY or START and a valid
transmitter is found in the vehicle.
You do not have to manually arm or disarm the system.
The security light comes on if there is a problem with
arming or disarming the theft-deterrent system.
The system has one or more keyless access
transmitters that are matched to an immobilizer control
unit in the vehicle. Only a correctly matched keyless
access transmitter starts the vehicle. The vehicle
may not start if the keyless access transmitter is
damaged.
If the engine does not start and the security light comes
on, there may be a problem with the immobilizer system.
Press the START button again.If the vehicle does not start and the keyless access
transmitter appears to be undamaged, try another
keyless access transmitter. Or, place the transmitter in
the transmitter pocket. See “NO FOBS DETECTED”
underDIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-54for
additional information. Check the fuse. SeeFuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 5-103. If the engine still does
not start with the other transmitter, the vehicle needs
service. If the engine does start, the rst transmitter may
be faulty. See your dealer/retailer or have a new keyless
access transmitter programmed to the vehicle.
The immobilizer system can learn new or replacement
keyless access transmitters. Up to four keyless access
transmitters can be programmed for the vehicle.
To program additional transmitters, see “Matching
transmitter(s) to Your Vehicle” underKeyless Access
System Operation on page 2-5.
Do not leave the key or device that disarms or
deactivates the theft deterrent system in the vehicle.

Turn and Lane-Change Signals
(Auto Signal)
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster ashes in the
direction of the turn or
lane change.
Move the the lever all the way up or down to signal a turn.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to ash to
signal a lane change. Release the lever and the turn
signal automatically ashes three times. If more ashes
are desired, continue to hold the lever.
The lever returns to its starting position when it is
released.
If after signaling a turn or lane change the arrows
ash rapidly or do not come on, a signal bulb may be
burned out.
Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb is not burned out,
check the fuse. SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers on
page 5-103.
Turn Signal on Chime
A chime sounds if the turn signal has been on for more
than three-quarters of a mile (1.2 km) of driving.
If you need to leave the turn signal on for more than
three-quarters of a mile (1.2 km), turn off the signal and
then turn it back on.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low beam to high,
push the turn signal lever all the way forward. To change
from high to low beam, pull the lever rearward.
While the high beams
are on, this light on the
instrument panel cluster
will also be lit.

2. Adjust the seat to a comfortable driving position.
If your seat position changes, the HUD may need
to be re-adjusted.
3. Press the up or down arrows to center the HUD
image in your view.
The HUD image can only be adjusted up and down,
not side-to-side.
4. Press the dimmer control downward until the
HUD image is no brighter than necessary.
To turn HUD off, press and hold the (–) button until
the HUD display turns off.
If the sun comes out or it becomes cloudy, the HUD
brightness may need to be adjusted again using
the dimmer control. Polarized sunglasses could make
the HUD image harder to see.
The HUD information can be displayed in one of
six languages including English, Spanish, French,
German, Italian or Japanese. The speedometer can be
displayed in either English or Metric units.
To change the language and unit selections, see
“OPTION” underDIC Operation and Displays on
page 3-49.Clean the inside of the windshield as needed to remove
any dirt or lm that reduces the sharpness or clarity
of the HUD image.
To clean the HUD, spray household glass cleaner on a
soft, clean cloth. Wipe the HUD lens gently, then dry
it. Do not spray cleaner directly on the lens because the
cleaner could leak into the unit.
If the ignition is on and the HUD image cannot be seen,
check to see if:
Something is covering the HUD unit.
The HUD dimmer control is adjusted properly.
The HUD image is adjusted to the proper height.
Ambient light is low, in the direction the vehicle
is facing.
A fuse is blown. SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers
on page 5-103.
Keep in mind that the windshield is part of the HUD
system. SeeWindshield Replacement on page 5-60.
