ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required for the engine and drivetrain (transmission and
axle) in your vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first 300 miles (500 km).After the initial 60 miles (100 km),
speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are desirable.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws contrib-
utes to a good break-in.Wide-open throttle acceleration in low gear can be detrimental
and should be avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy conserving
type lubricant.Oil changes should be consistent with anticipated climate conditions under
which vehicle operations will occur.Refer to “Maintaining Your Vehicle”, for the recom-
mended viscosity and quality grades.
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of
operation.This should be considered a normal part of the break-in and not interpreted
as an indication of an engine problem or malfunction.
CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may
result.
TURN SIGNAL/LIGHTS/HIGH BEAM LEVER
Turn Signal/Lane Change Assist
•Tap the lever up or down once and the
turn signal (right or left) will flash three
times to indicate a lane change and auto-
matically turn off.
Headlights/Parking Lights
•Rotate the end of the lever to the first
detent for parking lights and headlight
operation.
NOTE:
The ignition switch must be in the ON/
RUN position for the headlights to oper-
ate.Turn Signal/Lights Lever

High Beams
•Pull the lever rearward to activate the high beams.
•A high beam symbol will illuminate in the cluster to indicate the high beams are on.
NOTE:
For safe driving, turn off the high beams when oncoming traffic is present to prevent
headlight glare and as a courtesy to other motorists.
Flash To Pass
•Pull the lever toward you to activate the high beams.The high beams will remain on
until the lever is released.
Headlight Delay (Follow Me Home)
•Within two minutes of the ignition switch being turned to the OFF/LOCK position or
the ignition key being removed from the ignition, pull the turn signal lever toward the
steering wheel.
•Each movement of the lever toward the steering wheel will increase the illumination
period by 30 seconds, up to a maximum of 210 seconds.
•To deactivate, pull the multifunction lever toward the steering wheel and hold it for
more than two seconds.
NOTE:
Activation of Follow Me Home is only enabled once per key cycle and the steps outlined
above must be repeated each time you want to activate it.
Fog Lights
•Push the fog light button, located on the center stack of the instrument panel just be-
low the radio, once to turn on the fog lights.
•Push the button a second time to turn the fog lights off.

- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation / Malfunction
Indicator Light
The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will come on
for four seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN position.If the “ESC
Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine running, a
malfunction has been detected in the ESC system.If this light remains on, see your au-
thorized dealer as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and corrected.
NOTE:
•The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light”
come on momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.
•Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC system will be ON even if it
was turned off previously.
•ESC Activation/Malfunction Light can blink during a ESC or TC intervention.
- Generic Warning Light
The Generic Warning Light will illuminate if any of the following conditions occur: Oil
Change Request, Engine Oil Pressure Sensor Failure, External Light Failure, Fuel Cut-Off
Not Available, Parking Sensor Failure, DST System Failure.
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Indicator Light
This light informs you of a problem with the system.
If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running.Cycle the
ignition when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever is placed in the
PARK position; the light should turn off.
If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable.How-
ever, see an authorized dealer immediately.If the light is flashing when the engine is run-
ning, immediate service is required, and you may experience reduced performance, an
elevated/rough idle or engine stall, and your vehicle may require towing.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INDICATOR LIGHTS
Turn Signal Indicator
The arrows will flash with the exterior turn signals when the turn signal lever is oper-
ated.A tone will chime, and a EVIC message will appear if either turn signal is left on for
more than 1 mile (1.6 km).
NOTE:
If either indicator flashes at a rapid rate, check for a defective outside light bulb.
High Beam Indicator
Indicates that headlights are on high beam.
