Headlights
Rotate the end of the multifunction lever
upward to the first detent for headlight opera-
tion.
NOTE:
When the headlights are turned on, the Day-
time Running Lights, (if previously set
through the menu) will be deactivated.
High Beams
With the low beams activated, pull the mul-
tifunction lever towards the steering wheel to
turn on the high beams. A high beam symbolwill illuminate in the cluster to indicate the
high beams are on. Pull the multifunction
lever a second time to switch the headlights
back to low beam.
Parking Lights
To turn on the parking lights, remove the key
or turn the ignition to OFF/LOCK position and
turn on the headlights.
Follow Me Home/Headlight Delay
When this feature is selected, the driver can
choose to have the headlights remain on for a
preset period of time after the engine is
turned OFF.
Activation
Remove the key or turn the ignition to the
STOP (OFF/LOCK) position, and pull the mul-
tifunction lever toward the steering wheel
within two minutes. Each time the lever is
pulled, the activation of the lights will be
extended by 30 seconds. The activation of
the lights can be extended to a maximum of
210 seconds.
Deactivation
Pull the multifunction lever toward the steer-
ing wheel and hold it for more than two
seconds.
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.
Lane Change Assist
Tap the lever up or down once, without mov-
ing beyond the detent, and the turn signal
(right or left) will flash five times then auto-
matically turn off.

• If the button is continually pushed, the setspeed will continue to decrease until the
button is released, then the new set speed
will be established.
Metric Speed (km/h)
• Pushing the SET (-) button once will result in a 1 km/h decrease in set speed. Each
subsequent tap of the button results in a
decrease of 1 km/h.
• If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to decrease until the
button is released, then the new set speed
will be established.
To Accelerate For Passing
Press the accelerator as you would normally.
When the pedal is released, the vehicle will
return to the set speed.
Using Speed Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to
maintain the vehicle set speed.
NOTE:
The Speed Control system maintains speed
up and down hills. A slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal. On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain
may occur so it may be preferable to drive
without Speed Control.
WARNING!
Speed Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed.
Your vehicle could go too fast for the con-
ditions, and you could lose control and
have an accident. Do not use Speed Con-
trol in heavy traffic or on roads that are
winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push the
RES (+) button and release. Resume can be
used at any speed above 20 mph (32 km/h)
up to the maximum speed of 100 mph
(160 km/h).
To Deactivate
A soft tap on the brake pedal, pushing the
CANC button, or normal brake pressure while
slowing the vehicle will deactivate the Speed
Control without erasing the set speed from
memory.
Pushing the on/off button or turning the igni-
tion switch OFF erases the set speed from
memory.
PARKSENSE REAR PARK ASSIST
If an object is detected behind the rear bum-
per while the vehicle is in REVERSE, a chime
sounds. The chime rate changes depending
on the distance of the object, getting faster
as the object gets closer to the bumper. The
chime sounds off continuously when the dis-
tance between the vehicle and the obstacle is
less than 12 inches (30 cm).
PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA
Your vehicle is equipped with the ParkView
Rear Back Up Camera that allows you to see
an on-screen image of the rear surroundings
of your vehicle whenever the gear selector is
put into REVERSE. The image will be dis-
played on the touchscreen display along with
a caution note to “check entire surround-
ings” across the top of the screen. After five
seconds this note will disappear. The
ParkView camera is located on the rear of the
vehicle above the rear license plate.
STARTING AND OPERATING

• When winching the tire back into place, thewinch will make three audible noises once

by hand to confirm that it is secure. The tire
should not move. If tire is still loose and/or
three audible noises are not heard, place
and secure damaged wheel into the vehicle
and seek dealer assistance for the winch
mechanism.
Preparations For Jacking
1. Park the vehicle on a firm level surface as
far from the edge of the roadway as pos-
sible. Avoid icy or slippery areas.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to change a tire on the side
of the vehicle close to moving traffic, pull
far enough off the road to avoid being hit
when operating the jack or changing the
wheel.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
3. Apply the parking brake. 4. Place the gear selector into PARK.
5. Turn the ignition off to the LOCK position.
6. Chock both the front and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite of the jacking posi-
tion. For example, if changing the right
front tire, chock the left rear wheel.
NOTE:
Passengers should not remain in the vehicle
when the vehicle is being jacked.
Jacking Instructions
WARNING!
Carefully follow these tire changing warn-
ings to help prevent personal injury or
damage to your vehicle:
• Always park on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the roadway as
possible before raising the vehicle.
• Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
• Block the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel to be raised.
• Set the parking brake firmly and set an
automatic transmission in PARK; a
manual transmission in REVERSE.
• Never start or run the engine with the
vehicle on a jack.
• Do not let anyone sit in the vehicle when
it is on a jack.
• Do not get under the vehicle when it is
