position.
When either of these conditions
occur, the IntelliBeam feature
will be disabled and the
IntelliBeam light in the mirror
will turn off until the high-beam
stalk is returned to the neutral
position. .
If IntelliBeam was using
low-beams prior to this action,
the IntelliBeam feature will be
temporarily disabled until the
stalk is returned to the neutral
position. .
The exterior lamp control is
turned to any setting
except AUTO.
When this occurs, IntelliBeam
will be disabled until the control
is turned back to the AUTO
position. .
The IntelliBeam system is turned
off at the inside rearview mirror.
IntelliBeam may not turn off the
high-beams if the system cannot
detect other vehicle's lamps
because of any of the following: .
The others vehicle's lamp(s) are
missing, damaged, obstructed
from view or otherwise
undetected. .
The other vehicle's lamp(s) are
covered with dirt, snow and/or
road spray. .
The other vehicle's lamp(s)
cannot be detected due to dense
exhaust, smoke, fog, snow, road
spray, mist or other airborne
obstructions. .
Your vehicle's windshield is
dirty, cracked or obstructed by
something that blocks the view
of the IntelliBeam light sensor. .
Your vehicle's windshield is
covered with ice, dirt, haze or
other obstructions. .
Your vehicle is loaded such

IntelliBeam sensor to aim high
and not detect headlamps and
taillamps. .
You are driving on winding or
hilly roads.
You may need to manually disable
or cancel the high-beam headlamps
by turning the low-beam headlamps

Battery Load
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 gauge 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.
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 LOW
START VEHICLE . If this message
displays, it is recommended that the
driver reduce the electrical loads as
much as possible and restart the
vehicle. See Battery Voltage and
Charging Messages on page 5 ‑ 31 .
Battery Power Protection This feature shuts off the dome
lamps if they are left on for more
than 10 minutes when the ignition is
in LOCK/OFF. This helps to prevent
the battery from running down.

Infotainment System 7-3Use the navigation system to: .
Plan a route. .
Select a destination using
various methods and choices. .
Follow turn-by-turn route and
map guidance with voice
prompts, only if permitted by
traffic laws, controls, and
conditions.
Always be alert and obey traffic
and roadway laws and instructions,
regardless of the guidance from
the navigation system. Because
the navigation system uses street
map information that does not
include all traffic restrictions or
the latest road changes, it may
suggest using a road that is now
closed for construction or a turn
that is prohibited by signs at the
intersection. Because the system
uses limited information, you must
always evaluate whether following
the system's directions is safe and
legal for the current conditions. Theft-Deterrent Feature TheftLock ®
is designed to
discourage theft of the vehicle's
radio by learning a portion of the
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
The radio does not operate if it is
stolen or moved to a different
vehicle.
Overview When the navigation system is
turned on, a screen may appear
with the information below, and you
must read and acknowledge the
information it contains.
After you acknowledge the start
up information you will be able to
access the NAV (navigation) and
DEST (destination) functions. Once
accessed, you can enter or delete
information in the navigation system
or access other functions. See
instructions later in this section. Every fifty times the vehicle is
started and the navigation
system is turned on, the Caution
screen appears. After reading the
caution, select OK to load the map
information. If OK is not selected, all
control buttons except for NAV and
DEST can be accessed. You can
also press the NAV control button to
have this Caution screen appear.
When getting started, set the
navigation system to your
preference or delete information
you may have entered using
various options.
