Wiper Parking
If the ignition is put in OFF while the
wipers are on LO, HI, or INT, they
will immediately stop.
If the windshield wiper lever is then
moved to OFF before the driver
door is opened or within 10 minutes,
the wipers will restart and move to
the base of the windshield.
If the ignition is put in OFF while the
wipers are performing wipes due to
windshield washing, the wipers
continue to run until they reach the
base of the windshield.
nL(Windshield Washer): Pull
the windshield wiper lever toward
you to spray washer fluid and
activate the wipers. The wipers will
continue until the lever is released
or the maximum wash time is
reached. When the lever is
released, additional wipes may
occur depending on how long the
windshield washer had been activated. See
Washer Fluid on
page 10-25 for information on filling
the windshield washer fluid
reservoir.
{Warning
In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield is
warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass
display in the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass receives
its heading and other information
from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna, StabiliTrak,
and vehicle speed information.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna,
located on the roof, for long periods
of time with objects that may
interfere with the antenna's ability to
receive a satellite signal. The
compass system is designed to operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass system
will automatically determine when
the GPS signal is restored and
provide a heading again. See
Compass Messages on page 5-27
for more information on the
messages that may be displayed for
the compass.Clock
The infotainment system controls
are used to access the time and
date settings through the menu
system. See
Operation on page 7-4
for information about how to use the
menu system. For vehicles with a
connective radio or navigation
system, see the infotainment
manual.

The light turns off when the engine
is started. If it does not, have the
vehicle serviced by your dealer.
If the light stays on, or comes on
while driving, there could be a
problem with the electrical charging
system. Have it checked by your
dealer. Driving while this light is on
could drain the battery.
If a short distance must be driven
with the light on, be sure to turn off
all accessories, such as the radio
and air conditioner.
Malfunction
Indicator Lamp
A computer system called OBD II
(On-Board Diagnostics-Second
Generation) monitors the operation
of the vehicle to ensure emissions
are at acceptable levels, helping to
maintain a clean environment. The
malfunction indicator lamp comes
on when the vehicle is placed in
ON/RUN for key access or Service
Only Mode for Keyless Access, as a
check to show it is working. If itdoes not, have the vehicle serviced
by your dealer. See
Ignition
Positions (Keyless Access) on
page 9-14 orIgnition Positions (Key
Access) on page 9-16.
If the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on while the engine is
running, this indicates that the OBD
II system has detected a problem
and diagnosis and service might be
required.
With a diesel engine, this light may
also come on when the OBD II
system has detected a problem with
the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)
management system. See Diesel
Exhaust Fluid on page 9-27.
Malfunctions often are indicated by
the system before any problem is
apparent. Being aware of the light can prevent more serious damage
to the vehicle. This system also
assists the dealer technician in
correctly diagnosing any
malfunction.
{Caution
If the vehicle is continually driven
with this light on, the emission
controls might not work as well,
the vehicle fuel economy might
not be as good, and the engine
might not run as smoothly. This
could lead to costly repairs that
might not be covered by the
vehicle warranty.
{Caution
Modifications made to the engine,
transmission, exhaust, intake,
or fuel system of the vehicle or

tires with other than those of the
