Instruments and Controls 75
INT :Move the lever up to INT for
intermittent wipes, then turn the
Nband
up for more frequent wipes or down for less
frequent wipes.
OFF : Use to turn the wipers off.
1X : For a single wipe, briefly move the
wiper lever down. For several wipes, hold
the wiper lever down.
f: Pull the windshield wiper lever
toward you to spray washer fluid and
activate the wipers. The wipers will continue
until the lever is released or the maximum
wash time is reached. When the lever is
released, additional wipes may occur
depending on how long the windshield
washer had been activated. See Washer
Fluid 0246 for information on filling the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.
Clear snow and ice from the wiper blades
and windshield before using them. If frozen
to the windshield, carefully loosen or thaw
them. Damaged blades should be replaced.
See Wiper Blade Replacement 0250.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper
motor.
{Warning
In freezing weather, do not use the
washer until the windshield is warmed.
Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice
on the windshield, blocking your vision.
{Warning
Before driving the vehicle, always clear
snow and ice from the hood, windshield,
washer nozzles, roof, and rear of the
vehicle, including all lamps and windows.
Reduced visibility from snow and ice
buildup could lead to a crash.
Wiper Parking
If the ignition is turned off while the wipers
are on LO, HI, or INT, they will
immediately stop.
If the windshield wiper lever is then moved
to OFF before the driver door is opened or
within 10 minutes, the wipers will restart
and move to the base of the windshield.
If the ignition is turned off while the wipers
are performing wipes due to windshield
washing, the wipers continue to run until
they reach the base of the windshield.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass display on
the center stack. The compass receives its
heading and other information from the
Global Positioning System (GPS) antenna,
Electronic Stability Control, and vehicle
speed information.
The compass system is designed to operate
for a certain number of miles or degrees of
turn before needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass display shows
CAL, drive the vehicle for a short distance in
an open area where it can receive a GPS
signal. The compass system will
automatically determine when a GPS signal
is restored and provide a heading again.
Clock
Set the time and date using the
infotainment system. See "Time / Date"
under Settings 0151.

When the driver door is opened the
headlamps and parking lamps will illuminate
for a period of time.
The length of the delayed illumination
period can be changed. See “Exit Lighting”
under Vehicle Personalization 098.
The regular headlamp system should be
turned on when needed.
Lights On with Wipers
If the windshield wipers are activated in
daylight with the engine on and the exterior
lamp control is in AUTO, the headlamps,
parking lamps, and other exterior lamps will
come on. The time it takes for the lamps to turn on depends on the wiper speed. When
the wipers are turned off, the lamps turn
off. To disable, move the exterior lamp
control to
Oor;.
Hazard Warning Flashers
The hazard warning flashers warn others
that you have a problem. The button is on
the overhead console.

Press to make the front and rear turn
signal lamps flash on and off. Press again to
turn the flashers off.
The hazard warning flashers work no matter
what mode the ignition is in, even if the
ignition is turned off. When the hazard warning flashers are on,
the turn signals will not work.
Turn and Lane-Change Signals
An arrow on the instrument cluster flashes
in the direction of the turn or lane change.
Move the lever all the way up or down to
signal a turn.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow
starts to flash to signal a lane change. Hold
it there until the lane change is complete.

Vehicle Care 253
To check a fuse, look at the band inside the
fuse. If the band is broken or melted,
replace the fuse. Be sure to replace a bad
fuse with a fuse of the identical size and
rating.
Replacing a Blown Fuse
At the next opportunity, see your dealer to
replace the blown fuse.
Headlamp Wiring
An electrical overload may cause the lamps
to go on and off, or in some cases to
remain off. Have the headlamp wiring
checked right away if the lamps go on and
off or remain off.
Windshield Wipers
If the wiper motor overheats due to heavy
snow or ice, the windshield wipers will stop
until the motor cools and will then restart.Although the circuit is protected from
electrical overload, overload due to heavy
snow or ice may cause wiper linkage
damage. Always clear ice and heavy snow
from the windshield before using the
windshield wipers.
If the overload is caused by an electrical
problem and not snow or ice, be sure to get
it fixed.
Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are
protected from short circuits by fuses. This
greatly reduces the chance of damage
caused by electrical problems.
{Danger
Fuses and circuit breakers are marked
with their ampere rating. Do not exceed
the specified amperage rating when
replacing fuses and circuit breakers. Use
of an oversized fuse or circuit breaker can
result in a vehicle fire. You and others
could be seriously injured or killed.
