4. The hardtop switch is located on the headliner .
To lower the hardtop, press and hold the switch
rearward until the cycle is complete.The windows and trunk lid will open. The hardtop will
automatically lower, and the trunk lid will close and latch.
If the engine is on, a chime will sound when the hardtop
has lowered completely. The Driver Information Center
(DIC) will display TOP MOVE COMPLT. SeeDIC
Warnings and Messages on page 3-46for more
information.
After the hardtop has lowered completely, release the
switch. If you continue to press the switch for about
two seconds after the hardtop has completely lowered,
the windows will automatically close.

If pressure is released from the switch before the
hardtop cycle is complete, the cycle will stop and the
Driver Information Center (DIC) will display the TOP
NOT SECURE message. Always press and hold the
switch until a chime sounds, if the engine is on, and the
Driver Information Center (DIC) displays the TOP MOVE
COMPLT to signal the procedure is complete. SeeDIC
Warnings and Messages on page 3-46for more
information.
The hardtop will not operate if the vehicle has an
electrical failure. If an electrical failure occurs, see
your dealer/retailer for service.
If your vehicle has an electrical failure while operating
the hardtop, and must be towed to a dealer/retailer for
service, your vehicle should be towed by atbed with the
vehicle facing backwards. Consult your dealer/retailer or
professional towing service if you need to have your
disabled vehicle towed. SeeRoadside Assistance
Program on page 7-7.Raising the Retractable Hardtop
1. Park on a level surface, and shift the transmission
into (P) Park. The vehicle must be in (P) Park,
and the engine must be running, or the ignition
turned to the ON/RUN position, to operate
the retractable hardtop.
2. The trunk cargo cover must be fully closed, and the
trunk must be closed before raising the hardtop.

will close and latch. If the engine is on, a chime will sound
when the hardtop has raised completely.
The Driver Information Center (DIC) will display the
TOP MOVE COMPLT message to signal the procedure
is complete. SeeDIC Warnings and Messages on

J(On/Off):Press this button to turn the cruise
control system on and off.
RES+ (Resume):Press this button to resume a set
speed and to accelerate the speed.
SET−(Set):Press this button to set a speed and to
decrease the speed.
[(Cancel):Press this button to cancel cruise control.
To set a speed do the following:
1. Press the on/off symbol to turn cruise control on.
The indicator light on the button comes on.
2. Get to the speed you want.
3. Press the SET−symbol and release it. The cruise
symbol displays in the instrument panel cluster to
show the system is engaged.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
When the brakes are applied, the cruise control
shuts off.
If the vehicle is in cruise control and the Traction
Control System (TCS) or Enhanced Traction System
(ETS) begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise control
automatically disengages. SeeTraction Control System
(TCS) on page 4-7. When road conditions allow, the
cruise control can be used again.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose the cruise control is set at a desired speed
and the brakes are applied. This disengages the cruise
control. The cruise symbol in the instrument panel
cluster also goes out, indicating cruise is no longer
engaged. To return to the previously set speed,
you do not need to go through the set process again.
Once at a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or
more, press the RES+ symbol brie y.
This takes the vehicle back up and maintains the
previously chosen speed.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed.
If the cruise control system is already engaged,
press the RES+ symbol. Hold it there until the
speed desired is reached and then release
the button.
To increase the vehicle speed in very small
amounts, press the RES+ symbol brie y and then
release it. Each time this is done, the vehicle
goes about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.

Parade Dimming
Parade mode automatically prohibits the dimming of the
instrument panel displays during the daylight while
the headlamps are on so that the displays are still able
to be seen.
Reading Lamps
For vehicles with front and rear reading lamps, press
the lens to turn the lamp on and off, while the doors are
closed. These lamps come on automatically when
any door is opened.
Trunk Lamp
The trunk lamp comes on when the trunk is opened and
turns off when the trunk is closed.
Electric Power Management
The vehicle has Electric Power Management (EPM) that
estimates the battery’s temperature and state of charge.
It then adjusts the voltage for best performance and
extended life of the battery.
When the battery’s state of charge is low, the voltage
is raised slightly to quickly bring the charge back
up. When the state of charge is high, the voltage is
lowered slightly to prevent overcharging. If the vehicle
has a voltmeter gage or a voltage display on the
Driver Information Center (DIC), you may see the
voltage move up or down. This is normal. If there is a
problem, an alert will be displayed.
The battery can be discharged at idle if the electrical
loads are very high. This is true for all vehicles.
This is because the generator (alternator) may not be
spinning fast enough at idle to produce all the power that
is needed for very high electrical loads.
3-17
Page 150 of 410

A high electrical load occurs when several of the
following are on, such as: headlamps, high beams,
fog lamps, rear window defogger, climate control fan at
high speed, heated seats, engine cooling fans, trailer
loads, and loads plugged into accessory power outlets.
EPM works to prevent excessive discharge of the
battery. It does this by balancing the generator’s output
and the vehicle’s electrical needs. It can increase
engine idle speed to generate more power, whenever
needed. It can temporarily reduce the power demands of
some accessories.
Normally, these actions occur in steps or levels, without
being noticeable. In rare cases at the highest levels
of corrective action, this action may be noticeable to
the driver. If so, a Driver Information Center (DIC)
message might be displayed, such as BATTERY
SAVER ACTIVE, BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW, or
LOW BATTERY. If this message is displayed, it is
recommended that the driver reduce the electrical loads
as much as possible. SeeDIC Warnings and Messages
on page 3-46.Battery Run-Down Protection
The battery run-down feature is designed to protect the
vehicle’s battery.
When any interior lamp (trunk, reading lamps, or dome
lamp) is left on when the ignition is turned off, the
battery run-down protection system automatically shuts
the lamp off after 20 minutes. This prevents draining
of the battery.
To reactivate the interior lamps, do one of the following:
Open any door.
Press any Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
button.
Press the power door lock switch.
Press the remote trunk release.
Turn the lamp that was left on to off and then to
on again.

Control
Automatic Operation
AUTO (Automatic):Select AUTO on both the fan
speed control and the air delivery mode control knobs to
activate the automatic system. Automatic operation
controls the inside temperature and air delivery.
Use the steps below to place the climate control system
in automatic mode:
1. Turn the fan knob and the air delivery mode knob
to AUTO.
The display shows the current set temperature.
When auto is selected, the air conditioning operation
and air inlet is automatically controlled. The air
conditioning compressor runs when the outside
temperature is over about 40°F (4°C). The air inlet
is normally set to outside air. If it is hot outside,
the air inlet can automatically switch to recirculate
inside air to help quickly cool down the vehicle.
2. Set the temperature.
To nd your comfort setting, start with an initial
temperature setting and allow about 20 minutes for
the system to regulate. Press
wandxto adjust
the temperature setting as necessary. If the
temperature setting of 60°F (15°C) is chosen the
system remains at the maximum cooling setting.
