Seat Release Levers

NOTE:
You may experience deformation in the seat
cushion from the seat belt buckles if the seats are
left folded for an extended period of time. This is
normal and by simply unfolding the seats to the
open position, over time the seat cushion will
return to its normal shape. To Raise Rear Seat

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS —
I
F EQUIPPED
The Automatic High Beam Headlights system
provides increased forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control through the use of
a camera mounted on the windshield. This
camera detects vehicle specific light and
automatically switches from high beams to low
beams until the approaching vehicle is out of
view.
This function is enabled with the radio system,
and can only be activated with the light switch
turned to (AUTO).
If the high beam headlights are on, the blue icon/
indicator light will illuminate in the instrument
panel.

When the speed is higher than 25 mph (40 km/h)
and the function is active, the lights will turn off if
the multifunction lever is pushed again.

When the speed is lower than 15 mph (25 km/h)
and the function is active, the function switches
the high beam headlights off.
If the high beam headlights are operated quickly
again (pushing the multifunction lever towards
the instrument panel), the icon/indicator light
will illuminate in the instrument panel, and the
high beam headlights will turn on constantly until
the speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h).
When the speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) is
exceeded again, the automatic functioning is
reactivated.
If the multifunction lever is pushed again with the
Automatic High Beam Headlights activated, the
Automatic High Beam Headlights function
deactivates. To deactivate the automatic headlight function,
rotate the headlight switch to the position.
NOTE:

If the system recognizes heavy traffic areas,
the automatic functions remain disabled
independently of the vehicle’s speed.
The Automatic High Beam functionality may
also be influenced by:
• Reflections on road signs
• Dim headlights from oncoming traffic
• Poor weather conditions
• Presence of dirt or other obstructions on
the sensor
• Damage to the windshield
PARKING LIGHTS
To turn on the parking lights and instrument
panel lights, rotate the headlight switch
clockwise to the position. All of the parking
lights will turn on for eight minutes, and opening
the door activates an audible warning.
To leave only the lights on one side (right/left)
illuminated, move the multifunction lever
(located on the left side of the steering wheel) to
the side that you want to remain on. With the
parking lights on, the indicator light on the
instrument panel will illuminate.
To turn off the parking lights, rotate the headlight
switch back to the O (off) position.
HEADLIGHT OFF DELAY
To assist when exiting the vehicle, the “Headlight
Off Delay” feature will leave the headlights on for
up to 90 seconds. This delay is initiated when the
ignition is placed in the OFF position while the
headlight switch is on, and then the headlight
switch is cycled off. Headlight delay can be
canceled by either turning on the headlights or
side lights, or by placing the ignition in the ON
position.
The function can be activated from the radio
system by selecting the following functions in
sequence on the main menu:
1. Settings
2. Lights
3. Headlight Off Delay
REAR FOG LIGHT
The rear fog lights may be operated as desired
when visibility is poor due to fog. The rear fog light
button is integrated with the headlight switch.

off.
The lights can be turned off by pushing the
button again or by turning the headlight switch to
the O (off) position and holding it there for a few
seconds.

Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the
instrument panel to ventilate the chest
and face. Each of these outlets can be
individually adjusted to direct the flow of
air. The air vanes of the center outlets and
outboard outlets can be moved up and down or
side to side to regulate airflow direction. There is
a shut-off wheel located below the air vanes to
shut off or adjust the amount of airflow from
these outlets.
Bi-Level Mode
Air comes from the instrument panel
outlets and floor outlets. A slight
amount of air is directed through the
defrost and side window demister
outlets.

NOTE:
Bi-Level mode is designed under comfort condi -
tions to provide cooler air out of the panel outlets
and warmer air from the floor outlets.

Floor ModeAir comes from the floor outlets. A slight
amount of air is directed through the
defrost and side window demister
outlets. This setting heats the
passenger compartment the quickest.
Mix Mode
Air is directed through the floor, defrost,
and side window demister outlets. This
setting works best in cold or snowy
conditions that require extra heat to the
windshield. This setting is good for maintaining
comfort while reducing moisture on the
windshield.
Front Defrost And Panel Mode
Air flow is distributed between the
windshield demisting/defrosting vents
and side/central dashboard vents. This
setting allows air to flow to the
windshield on sunny days.

change the temperature, activate or deactivate
the Rear Defrost, activate SYNC, activate or
deactivate the air conditioner, and activate or
deactivate air recirculation. The system will

The display on the radio system is a pop up
window, which is activated by pushing the
buttons or turning the knobs on the Climate
Control system. The indicator lights located on the number of buttons and knobs indicate that
the selected feature is on/off. If no operation is
performed for a predetermined time, the pop-up
will close on the display.
Humidity Sensor
The Humidity Sensor helps prevent the windows
from fogging up. The AUTO function (indicator
illuminated) must be on for the Humidity Sensor
to function.
When outside temperature is low, the system
may turn the compressor on and turn air recircu
-
lation off for safer driving.
Stop/Start
The Stop/Start system shuts off the engine when
the vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h), as a fuel
conservation measure.
In order to maintain comfort in the cabin, the
Stop/Start feature will not activate if any of the
following conditions exist:
The climate control system is in AUTO mode
(indicator illuminated), and the vehicle has yet
to reach the set temperature
The climate control system is in LO maximum
cooling
The climate control system is in HI maximum
heating
The climate control system is in the MAX-DEF
status
When the Stop/Start system is active, the engine
will restart if the inside temperature changes
significantly, or if the LO setting, or MAX-DEF
setting, is activated.
