System Activation
With the ignition switched to ACC or
OFF, pull the headlight control lever
rearward and the low beam headlights
will turn on.
The headlights turn off after a period of
time after all doors are closed.
The time until the headlights turn off
after all of the doors are closed can be
changed through the Connect system.
The headlights turn off if the lever is
pulled again while the headlights are on,
or after three minutes of no further
action after the first pull of the lever.
Front Fog Lights
The front fog light can be activated
when the ignition is in the ON position
and the headlights or parking lights are
on.
Activation
Turn the headlight switch to the
or
position.
Rotate the fog light switch to the
position. The fog light indicator in the
instrument cluster illuminates while the
front fog lights are on.
Deactivation
Perform one of the following operations
to turn off the front fog lights:
Rotate the fog light switch to the OFF
position.
Turn the headlight switch to the OFF
position.
Switch the ignition to a position other
than ON.
The
fog light indicator in the
instrument cluster goes off when the
front fog light is turned off.
With Auto-Light Control
When the fog light switch is in
position and the headlight switch is in AUTO position, the front fog lights will
stay on.
Turn Signals
The ignition must be in the ON position
to use the turn signals and lane change
assist.
Move the signal lever down (for a left
turn) or up (for a right turn). The signal
will self-cancel after the turn is
completed.
If the indicator light continues to flash
after a turn, manually return the lever to
its original position.
The turn signal indicators (green)
in the instrument cluster flash
according to the operation of the turn
signal lever to show which signal is
active.
Note: If an indicator light stays on
without flashing or if it flashes
abnormally, one of the turn signal bulbs
may be burned out.
Lane Change Assist
Move the lever halfway toward the
direction of the lane change (until the
indicator flashes) and hold it there. It will
return to the off position when released.
Three-Flash Turn Signal
After releasing the turn signal lever, the
turn signal indicator flashes three times.
The operation can be cancelled by
moving the lever in the direction
opposite to which it was operated. 05030101-132-001AB

Passenger Occupant
Classification Sensor
Your vehicle is equipped with a
passenger occupant classification
sensor as a part of the supplementary
restraint system. This sensor is
equipped in the passenger's seat
cushion. This sensor measures the
electrostatic capacity of the
passenger's seat.
The SRS unit is designed to prevent the
passenger front and side Air Bags and
seat belt pretensioner system from
deploying if the passenger Air Bag
deactivation indicator light turns on.
To reduce the chance of injuries caused
by deployment of the passenger Air
Bag, the system deactivates the
passenger front and side Air Bags and
also the seat belt pretensioner system
when the passenger Air Bag
deactivation indicator light turns on.
This system shuts off the passenger
front and side Air Bags and seat belt
pretensioner system, so make sure the
passenger Air Bag deactivation
indicator light turns on.
The air bag/seat belt pretensioner
system warning light flashes and the
passenger Air Bag deactivation
indicator light illuminates if the sensors
have a possible malfunction. If this
happens, the passenger front and side
Air Bags and seat belt pretensioner
system will not deploy. Note: If a passenger is seated as
shown in the following figure the
passenger occupant classification
sensor cannot detect a passenger
sitting on the passenger's seat correctly
and the deployment/non-deployment of
the Air Bags cannot be controlled as
indicated in the passenger Air Bag
deactivation indicator light on/off
condition chart.
Warning!If a child restraint system, child, small
teenager or adult in the front passenger
seat is seated improperly, the occupant
may provide an output signal to the
occupant classification sensor that is
different from the occupant’s properly
seated weight input. This may result in
serious injury or death in a collision.
Warning! Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light in
your instrument panel could mean you
won’t have the air bags to protect you in a
collision. If the light does not come on as a
bulb check when the ignition is first turned
on, stays on after you start the vehicle, or if
it comes on as you drive, have an
authorized dealer service the air bag
system immediately.A

HAZARD WARNING
LIGHTS Control
The Hazard Warning Lights should
always be used when you stop on or
near a roadway in an emergency.
The Hazard Warning Light switch is
located on the center instrument panel
below the radio. Push the switch to turn
theHazardWarningLightsonoroff.
Note: The Hazard Warning Lights warn
other drivers that your vehicle is a traffic
hazard and that they must take extreme
caution when near it. When the switch is pushed, the Hazard
Warning Lights are active and all
directional turn signals will flash on and
off to warn oncoming traffic of an
emergency. Push the switch a second
time to turn off the Hazard Warning
Lights. The hazard warning indicator
lights in the instrument cluster will flash
simultaneously.
Note:
The turn signals do not work while
the Hazard Warning Lights are
activated.
Check local regulations about the
use of Hazard Warning Lights while the
vehicle is being towed to verify that it is
not in violation of the law.
If the brake pedal is pressed while
driving on slippery roads, the
emergency stop signal system could
operate causing all of the directional
turn signals to flash.
While the emergency stop signal
system is operating, all of the
directional turn signals automatically
flash rapidly to caution the driver of a
vehicle following behind of a sudden
braking situation. REPLACING A BULB General Instructions
Warning! Before proceeding with the replacement
of the lamp wait for the exhaust pipes are
cool: DANGER OF BURNS!
Modifications or repair of the electrical
system performed incorrectly and without
taking into account the technical
characteristics can cause malfunctions with
the risk of fire.
Halogen lamps contain gas under
pressure, in the event of breakage be
careful of the projection of fragments of
glass.
Halogen lamps must be handled by
touching only the metallic part. If the
transparent bulb is in contact with the
fingers, reduces the intensity of the emitted
light and you can also affect the life of the
lamp. In case of accidental contact, rub the
bulb with a cloth dampened with alcohol
and allow to dry.05031100-L12-001AB
