Auto High-Beam System*
Automatically changes the low beam headlights to high beam headlights when
necessary.
How It Works
When you are driving at night above 25 mph (40 km/h) and the headlight lever is
in the low beam position with the switch rotated to AUTO, the system changes
between low and high beams depending on the surrounding conditions.
If a vehicle is detected ahead of you, the headlights stay in low beams. If the
system does not detect any vehicles ahead of you, the headlights change \
to high
beams.
Certain conditions, such as weather and brightness of other vehicles’ lights, can
affect system operation.
Turning the System On or Off
Make sure the headlight lever is in the low beam
position with the switch rotated to the AUTo
position. The auto high-beam system indicator
appears when the system is on.
The system is canceled temporarily when you drive at speeds below 15 mph (24
km/h), the vehicle speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h), or the windshield wipers run at
high speed for more than a few seconds.
To disable the system: When the vehicle is on and parked, pull the headlight lever
towards you and hold it for 40 seconds. The auto high-beam indicator blinks twice.
To re-enable the system: Pull the headlight lever towards you and hold it for 30
seconds. The auto high-beam indicator blinks once.

Inspecting and Changing Fuses
1. Turn the vehicle off, including all lights and
accessories.
2. Remove the fuse box cover.
3. Check the large fuse in the engine compartment.
If the fuse is blown, use a Phillips-head
screwdriver to remove the screws and replace
the fuse with a new one. reinstall the screws.
4. Inspect the small fuses in the engine
compartment and the vehicle interior.
If there is a burned out fuse, remove it with the
fuse puller and replace it with a new one.
Combined

Fuse puller
replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the \
chances of
damaging the electrical system.

SPECIFICATIONSMAINTENANCE
Testing of Readiness Codes
Your vehicle has “readiness codes” as part of the onboard self-diagnostic system.
Some states refer to these codes as a test to see if your vehicle’s emissions
components are working properly. The codes may not be read if you go through the
testing just after the battery has gone dead or been disconnected.
To check if they are set, turn the vehicle on without starting the engine\
. The
malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it goes off, the
readiness codes are set. If it blinks five times, the readiness codes are not set.
If you are required to have your vehicle tested before the readiness codes are set,
prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:
1. Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.
2. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.
3. Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°C and 35°C).
4. Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle\
for 20
seconds.
5. Keep the vehicle in Park (P) or Neutral for manual transmission. Increase the
engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there for about 3 minutes.
6. Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.
7. Select a nearby, lightly traveled major highway where you can maintain a speed
of 50 to 60 mph (80 to 97 km/h) for at least 20 minutes. Drive on the highway
with the vehicle in Drive (D) or 5th gear. Do not use cruise control. When traffic
allows, drive for 90 seconds without using the accelerator pedal. (vehicle speed
may vary slightly; this is OK.) If you cannot do this for a continuous 90 seconds
because of traffic conditions, drive for at least 30 seconds, then repeat two more
times (for a total of 90 seconds).
8. Drive in city/suburban traffic for at least 10 minutes. When traffic conditions
allow, let the vehicle coast for several seconds without using the accelerator
pedal or the brake pedal.
9. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 30 minutes.
The readiness codes are erased when the battery is disconnected, and set again
only after several days of driving under a variety of conditions.
If a testing facility determines that the readiness codes are not set, you may be
requested to return at a later date to complete the test, or see your dealer.
