4-8 Instruments and Controls
Windshield Washer:Pull the lever
toward you to spray washer fluid
on the windshield. The spray
continues until the lever is released.
The wipers will run a few times.
See Washer Fluid
on page 9‑26for
information on filling the windshield
washer fluid reservoir.
{WARNING
In freezing weather, do not
use your washer until the
windshield is warmed. Otherwise
the washer fluid can form ice on
the windshield, blocking your
vision.
Clear ice and snow from the wiper
blades before using them. If the
wiper blades are frozen to the
windshield, gently loosen or thaw
them. If they become damaged,
install new blades or blade inserts.
See Wiper Blade Replacement
on
page 9‑32. Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wiper motor. A circuit breaker will
stop the motor until it cools down.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass
display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass receives
its heading and other information
from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna, StabiliTrak,
and vehicle speed information.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna for
long periods of time with objects
that may interfere with the antenna's
ability to receive a satellite signal.
See
Backglass Antenna
on
page 6‑13and Satellite Radio
Antennaon page 6‑13for the
location of the vehicle's antennas.
The compass system is designed
to operate for a certain number of miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive
a GPS signal. The compass
system will automatically determine
when the GPS signal is restored
and provide a heading again.
See
Compass Messages
on
page 4‑32for more information
on the messages that may be
displayed for the compass.
Clock
The infotainment system controls
are used to access the time and
date settings through the menu
system. See Operation
on
page 6‑3for information about
how to use the menu system.

{WARNING
An electric engine cooling fan
under the hood can start up even
when the engine is not running
and can cause injury. Keep
hands, clothing, and tools away
from any underhood electric fan.
{WARNING
Steam and scalding liquids from a
hot cooling system can blow out
and burn you badly. They are
under pressure, and if you turn
the surge tank pressure
cap—even a little —they can
come out at high speed. Never
turn the cap when the cooling
system, including the surge tank
pressure cap, is hot. Wait for the
cooling system and surge tank
pressure cap to cool if you ever
have to turn the pressure cap. If coolant is needed, add the proper
mixture directly to the radiator, but
be sure the cooling system is cool
before this is done.
If no coolant is visible in the coolant
overflow bottle, add coolant as
follows:
3.6 L V6 Engine Fill Procedure
1. Locate the radiator cap. See
Engine Compartment Overview
on page 9‑6.
2. Remove engine cover to access the radiator cap. See Engine
Cover on page 9‑9.
3. Cover the radiator cap with a thick cloth and turn it slowly
counterclockwise and remove. 4. If there is no coolant visible or
the level is low, slowly fill the
system through the radiator cap
opening with a 50/50 mixture
of DEX-COOL
®and clean
drinkable water.
Wait 30 seconds for coolant to
settle and continue filling if the
level drops.
Do not spill coolant on the
accessory drive belts.
If a spill occurs, rinse the belt
with fresh water.
5. Start the engine.
6. With the engine idling, continue to add coolant through the
radiator cap opening until full.
Wait 30 seconds for the coolant
to settle and top off, if the level
drops.
7. Once the system is full, put the radiator cap back on by turning
clockwise.

occur. Be sure the cap is properly
and tightly secured.
Engine Overheating
The vehicle has an indicator to warn
of engine overheating.
There is an engine coolant
temperature warning light on
your vehicle's instrument panel.

If you do decide to lift the hood,
make sure the vehicle is parked on
a level surface.
