“Getting To Know Your Vehicle” for further
information.
EXTERIOR LIGHTS
Headlight Switch
The headlight switch is located on the right
side of the instrument panel. This switch
controls the operation of the headlights,
parking lights, automatic headlights — if
equipped, instrument panel lights, instru-
ment panel light dimming, interior lights, fog
lights — if equipped, and headlight leveling
— if equipped.Rotate the headlight switch clockwise to the
first detent for parking light and instrument
panel light operation. Rotate the headlight
switch to the second detent for headlight,
parking light, and instrument panel light op-
eration.
Daytime Running Lights — If Equipped
The Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) are in a
dedicated position below the headlight as-
sembly. DRLs are active when the Low Beams
are not and when the vehicle is shifted into
any position other than PARK.
NOTE:
The Daytime Running Lights, 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.

strument panel to switch the headlights to

tered position. To return the headlights to low
beam, pull the lever toward the steering
wheel, or push the lever toward the instru-
ment panel.

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, rotate the
headlight switch clockwise to the last detent
for automatic headlight operation. 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 place the
ignition into the OFF position. To turn the
automatic system off, move the headlight
switch out of the AUTO position.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the head-
lights will come on in the automatic mode.
Front And Rear Fog Lights — If Equipped
The fog light switches are built into the head-
light switch.
To activate the front fog lights, push the
upper half of the headlight switch. To turn off
the front fog lights, push the upper half of the
headlight switch a second time.
To activate the rear fog lights, push the
lower half of the headlight switch. To turn off
the rear fog lights, push the lower half of the
headlight switch a second time.
NOTE:
To turn on the rear fog lamps, the low beam
lamps or front fog lamps must first be active.
An indicator light in the instrument cluster
illuminates when the fog lights are turned on.
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.
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.

pedals.
• If the vehicle carpet has been removed
and re-installed, always properly attach
carpet to the floor and check the floor
mat fasteners are secure to the vehicle
carpet. Fully depress each pedal to
check for interference with the accelera-
tor, brake, or clutch pedals then re-
install the floor mats.
• It is recommended to only use mild soap
and water to clean your floor mats. After
cleaning, always check your floor mat
WARNING!
has been properly installed and is se-
cured to your vehicle using the floor mat
fasteners by lightly pulling mat.
Periodic Safety Checks You Should Make
Outside The Vehicle
Tires
Examine tires for excessive tread wear and
uneven wear patterns. Check for stones,
nails, glass, or other objects lodged in the
tread or sidewall. Inspect the tread for cuts
and cracks. Inspect sidewalls for cuts,
cracks, and bulges. Check the wheel nuts for
tightness. Check the tires (including spare)
for proper cold inflation pressure.
Lights
Have someone observe the operation of brake
lights and exterior lights while you work the
controls. Check turn signal and high beam
indicator lights on the instrument panel.
Door Latches
Check for proper closing, latching, and lock-
ing.
Fluid Leaks
Check area under the vehicle after overnight
parking for fuel, coolant, oil, or other fluid
leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes are detected or
if fuel, or brake fluid leaks are suspected. The
cause should be located and corrected imme-
diately.
