Daytime Running Lights — If Equipped
The headlights come on at a low intensity level
when shifted into any position other than PARK
(auto transmission) or when the vehicle begins
to move (manual transmission).
NOTE:
The Daytime Running Light, on the same side
of the vehicle as the active turn signal, will
turn off automatically when a turn signal is in
operation and turn on again when the turn
signal is not operating.
High/Low Beam Switch
Push the multifunction lever toward the in-
strument panel to switch the headlights to
high beams. Pulling the multifunction lever
back toward the steering wheel will return the
lights to low beams.
Flash-To-Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your
headlights by lightly pulling the multifunc-
tion lever toward you. This will cause the high
beam headlights to turn on, and remain on,
until the lever is released.
Automatic Headlights — If Equipped
This system automatically turns the head-
lights on or off according to ambient light
levels. To turn the system on, turn the end of
the multifunction lever to the AUTO position
(third detent). When the system is on, the
Headlight Time Delay feature is also on. This
means the headlights will stay on for up to
90 seconds after you turn the ignition switch
to the LOCK position. To turn the Automatic
System off, turn the end of the multifunction
lever out of the AUTO position.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the head-
lights will turn on in the Automatic mode.
Front Fog Lights
The front fog light switch is located on the
multifunction lever. To activate the front fog
lights, turn on the parking or low beam head-
lights and pull out the end of the lever.NOTE:
The fog lights will only operate with the park-
ing lights or the headlights on low beam.
Selecting high beam headlights will turn off
the fog lights.
Rear Fog Lights — If Equipped
The rear fog lights may be operated, as de-
sired, when visibility is poor due to fog. To
activate the rear fog lights, turn on the low
beam, high beam, or front fog lamps, pull out
the end of the multifunction lever and rotate
the lever to the last detent.
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.
29
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.
• A tone will chime if the turn signals are left
on for more than 1 mile (2 km).
Lane Change Assist — If Equipped
Tap the lever up or down once, without mov-
ing beyond the detent, and the turn signal
(right or left) will flash three times then
automatically turn off.
Lights-On Reminder
If the headlights, parking lights, or cargo
lights are left on after the ignition is turned
OFF, a chime will sound when the driver’s
door is opened.
Headlight Leveling System — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a head-
light leveling system. This system allows the
driver to maintain proper headlight beam
position with the road surface regardless of
vehicle load.
The control switch is located in the switch
bank below the climate controls.
To operate, push the control switch until the
indicator next to the appropriate number,
which corresponds to the load listed on the
chart below, illuminates on the switch.
0/1Driver only, or driver
and front passenger.

maximum load ca-
pacity of the vehicle.

distributed load in
the luggage compart-
ment. The total

located on the right side of the steering
column. The front wipers are operated by
rotating a switch, located at the end of the
Wiper/Washer Lever

high beams. Pull the multifunction lever rear-
ward (toward the rear of the vehicle) to turn
off the high beams. If the high beams are off,
pull the lever toward you for a temporary high
beam on, "flash to pass" scenario.
ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC
SYSTEM — OBD II
Your vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated
Onboard Diagnostic system called OBD II.
This system monitors the performance of the
emissions, engine, and automatic transmis-
sion control systems. When these systems are
operating properly, your vehicle will provide
excellent performance and fuel economy, as
well as engine emissions well within current
government regulations.
