Instruments and controls2-25

SIC2275
Headlight aiming control (if so
equipped)
Depending on the number of occupants in
the vehicle and the load it is carrying, the
headlight axis may be higher than desired.
If the vehicle is traveling on a hilly road,
the headlights may directly hit the rearview
mirror of the vehicle ahead or the wind-
shield of the oncoming vehicle. The light
axis can be lowered with the operation of
the switch.
The larger the number designated on the
switch, the lower the axis.
When traveling with no heavy load or on aflat road, select position 0.
WARNING
Xenon headlights are extremely bright
compared to conventional headlights. If
the xenon headlights hit the rearview mirror
of the vehicle ahead or the windshield of
oncoming vehicle, the driver of these
vehicles may have difficulty driving because
of the brightness. Use the headlight aiming
control switch to lower the light axis. See
“Xenon headlights”
earlier in this section
for additional information.
Daytime running light system (Ca-
nada only)
The daytime running lights automatically
illuminate when the engine is started with
the parking brake released. The daytime
running lights operate with the headlight
switch in the OFF position or in the
position. Turn the headlight switch to theposition for full illumination when
driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the daytime running
lights do not illuminate. The daytime running lights illuminate once the parking
brake is released. The daytime running
lights will remain on until the ignition
switch is pushed to the OFF position.
WARNING
When the daytime running light system is
active, tail lights on your vehicle are not on.
It is necessary at dusk to turn on your
headlights. Failure to do so could cause an
accident injuring yourself and others.
Adaptive Front lighting System
(AFS) (if so equipped)
The Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS)
will automatically adjust the headlights
(low beam) toward the turning direction to
improve the driver’s view. When the head-
light switch is ON and the driver operates
the steering wheel in a turn, the AFS
system will be activated.
The AFS will operate:
.
Right-side headlight
— When the headlight switch is ON
— When the shift lever is in any
position other than P (Park) or R

The vehicle should be driven with the
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA) system on
for most driving conditions.
The Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA) system
will sound a warning chime to alert the
driver when the vehicle is traveling too
close to the vehicle ahead and will apply
the brake control if necessary.
To turn off the system, push the IBA OFF
switch. The
indicator will illuminate.
The IBA system will remain in the last ON
or OFF state it was left in until it is
manually changed by pushing the IBA OFF
switch. See
“Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA) system”
in the “5. Starting and driving” section.
SIC4455
The vehicle should be driven with the
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system on
for most driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the
VDC system reduces the engine output to
reduce wheel spin. The engine speed will
be reduced even if the accelerator is
depressed to the floor. If maximum engine
power is needed to free a stuck vehicle,
turn the VDC system off.
To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC
OFF switch. The
indicator will illumi-
nate.
Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart
the engine to turn on the system. (See

Remote engine start (if so
equipped)
The remote engine startbutton*Eis
on the Intelligent Key if the vehicle has
remote engine start function. This function
allows the engine to start from outside the
vehicle.
Some systems, such as the air conditioner
system, will turn on during a remote start,
if the system was on the last time the ignition switch was turned off.
Laws in some local communities may
restrict the use of remote starters. For
example, some laws require a person using
remote start to have the vehicle in view.
Check local regulations for any require-
ments.
Other conditions may affect the remote
engine start function. See
“Conditions the
remote engine start will not work” later in
this section.
Other conditions can affect the perfor-
mance of the Intelligent Key transmitter.
See “Intelligent Key system” earlier in this
section.
Remote engine start operating range:
The remote engine start function can only
be used when the Intelligent Key is within
the specified operating range from the
vehicle.
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or strong radio waves are present
near the operating location, the Intelligent
Key operating range becomes narrower,
and the Intelligent Key may not function
properly.
The remote engine start operating range is
approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the vehicle.
Operating a remote engine start:
To use the remote start function to start the
engine, perform the following:
1. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle.
2. Push the LOCK
button to lock all
doors.
3. Within 5 seconds push and hold the remote engine start
button until
the turn signal lights illuminate. If the
vehicle is not within view, push and
hold the remote engine start
button for about 2 seconds.
The following events will occur when the
engine starts:
. The front parking lights will turn on and
remain on as long as the engine is
running.
. The doors will be locked and the air
conditioner system may turn on.
. The engine will continue to run for
about 10 minutes. Repeat the steps to
extend the time for an additional 10
minutes. See “Extending engine run
time” later in this section.

ing the vehicle” in the“5. Starting and
driving” section.
Extending engine run time:
The remote engine start function can be
extended one time by performing the steps
listed in “Operating a remote engine start”
earlier in this section. Run time will be
calculated as follows:
. The first 10 minute run time will start
when the remote engine start function
is performed.
. The second 10 minutes will start
immediately when the remote engine
start function is performed. For exam-
ple, if the engine has been running for
5 minutes, and 10 minutes are added,
the engine will run for a total of 15
minutes.
A maximum of two remote starts, or a
single start with an extension, are allowed
between ignition cycles.
The ignition switch must be cycled to the
ON position and then back to the OFF
position before the remote engine start
procedure can be used again. Canceling a remote engine start:

the following:
. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle
and push and hold remote engine start
button*Euntil the front parking
lights turn off.
. Turn on the hazard indicator flashers.
. Cycle the ignition switch ON and then
OFF.

work:
The remote engine start will not operate if
any of the following conditions are present:
. The ignition switch is placed in the ON
position.
. The hood is not securely closed.
. The hazard indicator flashers are on.
. The Intelligent Key warning light re-
mains on in the vehicle information
display.

Intelligent Key in the vehicle but the
brake pedal is not depressed.
. Two remote engine starts, or a single
remote start with an extension, have
already been used.
. The shift lever is not in the P (Park)
position.
The remote engine start may display an
indicator in the vehicle information dis-
play. For an explanation of the indicator,
see “Operational indicators” in the“2.
Instruments and controls” section.
