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 (With
DIC Buttons) on page 3-65.

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.
The DRL system makes either the
low-beam headlamps come on at a
reduced brightness or the DRL lights,
for vehicles with High Intensity
Discharge (HID) headlamps 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.

The air conditioning system runs
automatically in this setting, unless
the outside temperature is less than
40°F (4°C).
Do not drive the vehicle until all the
windows are clear.
While in defrost mode, if the PASS
button is pressed, the PASS button
indicator ashes three times to show
that the passenger climate control
system cannot be activated. If the
passenger temperature buttons are
adjusted while in defrost mode, the
driver temperature indicator will
change. The passenger temperature
will not be displayed.Air Conditioning
#(Air Conditioning):Press
to turn the air conditioning (A/C)
on and off. An indicator light comes
on when A/C is on.
The A/C does not work when
the outside temperature is below
40°F (4°C). If
#is pressed the
indicator ashes three times and
turns off to show that the A/C mode
is not available. If the A/C is on and
the outside temperature drops below
a temperature which is too cool for
air conditioning to be effective, the
A/C indicator turns off to show that
the A/C mode has been canceled.On hot days, open the windows
briey to let hot inside air escape.
This helps reduce the time it
takes for the interior of the vehicle
to cool down.
The air conditioning system
removes moisture from the air,
so a small amount of water might drip
under the vehicle while idling or after
turning off the engine. This is normal.
@(Recirculation):Press to
turn the recirculation mode on or off.
An indicator light comes on when
recirculation is on. When the engine
is turned off, the recirculation mode
automatically turns off and must be
re-selected when the engine is
turned on again.

OIL LIFE
Press the vehicle information button
until OIL LIFE REMAINING displays.
This display shows an estimate of
the oil’s remaining useful life. If you
see 99% OIL LIFE REMAINING on
the display, that means 99% of the
current oil life remains. The engine
oil life system will alert you to change
the oil on a schedule consistent with
your driving conditions.
When the remaining oil life is low,
the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the display.
See “CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON”underDIC Warnings and Messages
on page 3-56. You should change
the oil as soon as you can.
SeeEngine Oil on page 5-13.
In addition to the engine oil life
system monitoring the oil life,
additional maintenance is
recommended in the Maintenance
Schedule in this manual. See
Scheduled Maintenance on page 6-3
for more information.
Remember, you must reset the
OIL LIFE display yourself after each
oil change. It will not reset itself.
Also, be careful not to reset the
OIL LIFE display accidentally at any
time other than when the oil has just
been changed. It cannot be reset
accurately until the next oil change.
To reset the engine oil life system,
seeEngine Oil Life System on
page 5-15.

To use the retro-active reset feature,
press and hold the set/reset button
for at least four seconds. The trip
odometer will display the number
of miles (mi) or kilometers (km)
driven since the ignition was last
turned on and the vehicle was
moving. Once the vehicle begins
moving, the trip odometer will
accumulate mileage. For example,
if the vehicle was driven 5 miles
(8 km) before it is started again,
and then the retro-active reset
feature is activated, the display
will show 5 miles (8 km). As the
vehicle begins moving, the display
will then increase to 5.1 miles
(8.2 km), 5.2 miles (8.4 km), etc.
If the retro-active reset feature is
activated after the vehicle is started,
but before it begins moving, the
display will show the number of
miles (mi) or kilometers (km) that
were driven during the last ignition
cycle.RANGE
Press the trip/fuel button until
RANGE displays. This display
shows the approximate number
of remaining miles (mi) or
kilometers (km) the vehicle can be
driven without refueling. The display
will show LOW if the fuel level is low.
The fuel range estimate is based
on an average of the vehicle’s fuel
economy over recent driving history
and the amount of fuel remaining
in the fuel tank. This estimate will
change if driving conditions change.
For example, if driving in traffic and
making frequent stops, this display
may read one number, but if the
vehicle is driven on a freeway, the
number may change even though
the same amount of fuel is in thefuel tank. This is because different
driving conditions produce different
fuel economies. Generally, freeway
driving produces better fuel economy
than city driving. Fuel range cannot
be reset.
AVG (Average) ECONOMY
Press the trip/fuel button until
AVG ECONOMY displays.
This display shows the approximate
average miles per gallon (mpg) or
liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km).
This number is calculated based
on the number of mpg (L/100 km)
recorded since the last time this
menu item was reset. To reset
AVG ECONOMY, press and hold
the set/reset button.
