BATTERY PROTECTION
This feature provides battery protec-
tion to avoid wearing down the bat-
tery if the headlights, parking lights,
or front fog lights are left on for ex-
tended periods of time when the igni-
tion switch is in the LOCK position.
After eight minutes of the ignition
switch being in the LOCK position
and the headlight switch in any posi-
tion other than OFF or AUTO, thelights will turn off automatically until
the next cycle of the ignition switch or
headlight switch.
The battery protection feature will be
disabled if the ignition switch is
turned to any other position other
than LOCK during the eight minute
delay.
MULTIFUNCTION LEVER
The multifunction lever is located on
the left side of the steering column.

Front and Rear Wipers — Washer
Functions
TURN SIGNALS
Move the multifunction lever up or
down and the arrows on each side of
the instrument cluster flash to show
proper operation of the front and rear
turn signal lights.
NOTE: If either light remains on
and does not flash, or there is a
very fast flash rate, check for a
defective outside light bulb. If an
indicator fails to light when the
lever is moved, it would suggest
that the indicator bulb is defective.
Turn Signal Warning
If the vehicle electronics sense that the

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
The Automatic High Beam system
provides increased forward lighting at
night by automating high beam con-
trol through the use of a digital cam-
era mounted on the inside rearview
mirror. This camera detects vehicle
specific light and automatically
switches from high beams to low
beams until the approaching vehicle
is out of view.
NOTE: Broken, muddy or ob-
structed headlights and taillights
of vehicles in the field of view willcause headlights to remain on lon-
ger (closer to the vehicle). Also,
dirt, film and other obstructions
on the windshield or camera lens
will cause the system to function
improperly.
To Activate
1. Select “Automatic High Beams —
ON” through the EVIC. Refer to
“Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC)/Customer-Programmable

WINDSHIELD WIPERS
AND WASHERS
The wipers and washers are operated
by a switch within the multifunction
lever. Rotate the end of the multifunc-
tion lever to select the desired wiper
speed. NOTE: Always remove any
buildup of snow that prevents the
windshield wiper blades from re-
turning to the off position. If the
windshield wiper switch is turned
off and the blades cannot return to
the off position, damage to the
wiper motor may occur.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through
the windshield could lead to a col-
lision. You might not see other ve-
hicles or other obstacles. To avoid
sudden icing of the windshield dur-
ing freezing weather, warm the
windshield with the defroster be-
fore and during windshield washer

on the end of the lever to the second
detent and hold while spray is desired.
If the lever is pushed while on the in-
termittent setting, the wipers will turn
on and operate for several wipe cycles
after the lever is released, and then
resume the intermittent interval previ-
ously selected. If the lever is pushed
while the wipers are in the off position,
the wipers will operate several wipe
cycles, then turn off.
INTERMITTENT, LOW AND
HIGH SPEED WIPERS
Rotate the end of the lever to one of
the first five detent positions for inter-
mittent wiper operation, the sixth de-
tent for low wiper operation and the
seventh detent for high wiper opera-
tion.
Use one of the five intermittent wiper
settings when weather conditions
make a single wiping cycle, with a
variable delay between cycles, desir-
able. At driving speeds above
16 km/h, the delay can be regulated
from a maximum of approximately
Washer And Wiper Controls
133

18 second between cycles (first de-
tent), to a cycle every one second
(fifth detent).
NOTE: If the vehicle is moving
less than 16 km/h, delay times will
be doubled.
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 inter-
mittent interval.
NOTE: Rear window wipers
function in the intermittent wiper
speed only.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through
the windshield could lead to a col-
lision. You might not see other ve-
hicles or other obstacles. To avoid
sudden icing of the windshield dur-
ing freezing weather, warm the
windshield with defroster before
and during windshield washer use.
RAIN SENSING WIPERS
(for versions/markets,
