or cancel the high-beam headlamps
by turning the low-beam headlamps
on, if any of the above conditions
exist.

IntelliBeam at the Rearview Mirror
IntelliBeam can be disabled by
using the controls on the inside
rearview mirror.
AUTO

system, press this button on the
inside rearview mirror. The
IntelliBeam indicator will turn off and
will not come back on until the
IntelliBeam button is pressed again.

has turned on the high-beams, pull
or push the high-beam stalk. This
will disable IntelliBeam. The
IntelliBeam indicator on the mirror
will turn off. To re-enable
IntelliBeam, press the IntelliBeam
button on the mirror. A different sensitivity setting is
available for dealer diagnostics.
This is done by pushing and holding
this button for 20 seconds until the
IntelliBeam indicator light flashes
three times. If you accidentally
activate this, the vehicle's setting
will automatically be reset each time
the ignition is turned off and then on
again.
Cleaning the IntelliBeam Light
Sensor
The light sensor is located on the
inside of the vehicle in front of the
inside rearview mirror.Clean the light sensor window,
periodically, using glass cleaner on
a soft cloth. Gently wipe the sensor
window. Do not spray glass cleaner
directly on the surface of the sensor
window.

sounds when the headlamps or
parking lamps are manually turned
on and the key is out of the ignition.
To turn off the chime, turn the
exterior lamp control to off or AUTO
and then back on, or close and
re-open the door. In the AUTO
mode, the headlamps turn off once
the ignition is in LOCK/OFF or
remains on until the headlamp delay
ends (if enabled in the DIC). See

Driving and Operating 9-11
There is no hard and fast rule about
hydroplaning. The best advice is to
slow down when the road is wet.
Other Rainy Weather Tips
Besides slowing down, other wet
weather driving tips include:
.Allow extra following distance.
.Pass with caution.
.Keep windshield wiping
equipment in good shape.
.Keep the windshield washer fluid
reservoir filled.
.Have good tires with proper
tread depth. SeeTires on
page 10-39.
.Turn off cruise control.
Highway Hypnosis
Always be alert and pay attention to
your surroundings while driving.
If you become tired or sleepy, find a
safe place to park the vehicle
and rest. Other driving tips include:
.Keep the vehicle well ventilated.
.Keep the interior
temperature cool.
.Keep your eyes moving
—scan
the road ahead and to the sides.
.Check the rearview mirror and
vehicle instruments often.
Hill and Mountain Roads
Driving on steep hills or through
mountains is different than driving
on flat or rolling terrain. Tips for
driving in these conditions include:
.Keep the vehicle serviced and in
good shape.
.Check all fluid levels and brakes,
tires, cooling system, and
transmission.
.Shift to a lower gear when going
down steep or long hills.
{Warning
If you do not shift down, the
brakes could get so hot that they
would not work well. You would
then have poor braking or even
none going down a hill. You could
crash. Shift down to let the engine
assist the brakes on a steep
downhill slope.
{Warning
Coasting downhill in N (Neutral)
or with the ignition off is
dangerous. The brakes will have
to do all the work of slowing down
and they could get so hot that
they would not work well. You
would then have poor braking or
even none going down a hill.
Steering may also be affected
when ignition is off. You could
