cause the washers to spray for a maximum of 10 seconds,
or until the multifunction lever is released, and the
wipers will cycle three times.
NOTE:
•If the multifunction lever is pressed while in the delay
range, the wipers will operate for several seconds after
the multifunction lever is released, and then resume
the intermittent interval previously selected.
•If the multifunction lever is pressed while in the off
position, the wipers will operate for approximately
two or three wipe cycles and automatically turn off.
2. Intermittent, Low and High Speed Wipers
Use the intermittent wipers when weather conditions
make a single wiping cycle, with a variable pause be-
tween cycles, desirable. Rotate the end of the multifunc-
tion lever to the first detent position, then turn the end of
the multifunction lever to select the desired delay inter-
val. The delay can be regulated from approximately two seconds, to a maximum of 20 seconds between cycles.
The time delay will be doubled if the vehicle speed is less
than 10 mph (16 km/h).
Low-speed is achieved by rotating the multifunction
lever past the intermittent settings, to the first detent.
High-speed is achieved by rotating the multifunction
lever past the intermittent settings, to the second detent.
3. Rear Wiper and Washer
Rotating the rotary ring to the first detent activates the
rear intermittent wipers. To activate the washers, rotate
the rotary ring fully forward and the washers will spray
until the ring is released, and then resume the intermit-
tent interval.
NOTE:
Rear window wipers function in the intermittent
wiper speed only.

To Activate
Push the ON/OFF button (located in the end of the lever)
once, and the cruise indicator light (located in the mes-
sage window of the odometer) will illuminate, showing
that the Electronic Speed Control system is on. To turn
the Electronic Speed Control system off, push the ON/
OFF button a second time, and both the Electronic Speed
Control system and indicator will turn off.
WARNING!
Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on
when not in use is dangerous. You could accidently
set the system or cause it to go faster than you want.
You could lose control and have an accident. Always
leave the Electronic Speed Control system off when
you are not using it.
To Set At A Desired Speed
Turn the Electronic Speed Control ON. When the vehicle
has reached the desired speed, press the SET lever
downward and then release. Lift your foot off the accel-
erator and the vehicle will operate at the selected speed.
Deactivating Electronic Speed Control
A soft tap on the brake pedal or pulling the Electronic
Speed Control lever (CANCEL) toward you will deacti-
vate the Electronic Speed Control without erasing the set
speed memory. Pushing the ON/OFF button to the OFF
position or turning OFF the ignition erases the set speed

Express Close
Press the switch forward and release, and the sunroof
will close automatically from any position. The sunroof
will close fully, then stop automatically. This is called
“Express Close”. During Express Close operation, any
movement of the sunroof switch will stop the sunroof.
WARNING!
Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof.
Never allow your fingers, other body parts, or any
object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury
may result.
Ignition Off Operation
The power sunroof switch will remain active for 10 min-
utes after the ignition switch is turned OFF. Opening
either front door will cancel this feature.
Auto-Express with Anti-Pinch Protection
During express closing, anytime an obstacle that restricts
glass movement is detected, the motor will stop and
reverse travel to avoid pinching the object.
Auto Express will stop and reverse travel up to three
times in succession. After the third time, Auto Express
will enter a manual operation mode. This allows the
operator to manually control the power switch, in order
to close or open the sunroof in case of a malfunction.
Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain
open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur-
rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with
the rear windows open, open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs

with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to
minimize the buffeting or open any window.
Sunroof Maintenance
Use only a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean
the glass panel.

CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause damage to
the heating elements:
•Use care when washing the inside of the rear
window. Do not use abrasive window cleaners on
the interior surface of the window. Use a soft cloth
and a mild washing solution, wiping parallel to
the heating elements. Labels can be peeled off
after soaking with warm water.
•Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or abra-
sive window cleaners on the interior surface of the
window.
•Keep all objects a safe distance from the window.
LOAD-LEVELING SYSTEM
The automatic load-leveling system will provide a level
riding vehicle under most passenger and cargo loading
conditions.
A hydraulic pump contained within the shock absorbers
raises the rear of the vehicle to the correct height. It takes
approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) of driving for the leveling
to complete depending on road surface conditions.
If the leveled vehicle is not moved for approximately
15 hours, the leveling system will bleed itself down. The
vehicle must be driven to reset the system.
