Headlight WashersOn Canadian modelsThe headlight washers can be
operated at any time by pressing the
headlight washer button located next
to the steering wheel column. The
headlights must be turned on to use
this button. In addition, the headlight
washer operates without pressing the
button the first time you turn on the
windshield washers with the ignition
switch in the ON (II) position. The headlight washers use the same
fluid reservoir as the windshield
washers.
Models equipped with the keyless
access system have an engine start/
stop button instead of an ignition
switch. ON mode is the equivalent of
ON (II). See page 196 for ignition
switch and power mode comparison.

When you remove the key from the
ignition switch (or the vehicle is in
VEHICLE OFF mode on models with
keyless access system), the steering
wheel automatically moves fully up.
To change the‘‘AUTO TILT AND
TELESCOPE STEERING WHEEL ’’
setting, see page 116.
The steering wheel then returns to
its original position when you insert
the key back in the ignition switch
(or the vehicle is in ON mode on
models with keyless access system).
Steering wheel movement is also
controlled by the driving position
memory system (see page 180). If your vehicle's battery is
disconnected or goes dead, or the
fuse for the power tilt and telescopic
steering wheel is removed, the
power tilt and telescopic steering
wheel system needs to be reset when
you reconnect the battery or install
the fuse.
Insert the key into the ignition
switch, and remove it (or set the
power mode to VEHICLE OFF on
models with keyless access system).
The steering wheel automatically
moves fully up to let you know the

position. START (III)
