D Your vehicle or exhaust system had been


modified improperly.


If you ever suspect exhaust is coming into your vehicle: D Drive it only with all the windows down to


blow out any CO; and


D Have your vehicle fixed immediately.


2-32


Running Your Engine While You’re Parked It’s better not to park with the engine running. But if you ever have to, here are some things to know.


CAUTION:


Idling the engine with the climate control system off could allow dangerous exhaust into your vehicle (see the earlier Caution under “Engine Exhaust”). Also, idling in a closed-in place can let deadly carbon monoxide (CO) into your vehicle even if the fan switch is at the highest setting. One place this can happen is a garage. Exhaust -- with CO -- can come in easily. NEVER park in a garage with the engine running. Another closed-in place can be a blizzard. (See “Blizzard” in the Index.)


CAUTION:


It can be dangerous to get out of your vehicle if the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P) with the parking brake firmly set. Your vehicle can roll. Don’t leave your vehicle when the engine is running unless you have to. If you’ve left the engine running, the vehicle can move suddenly. You or others could be injured. To be sure your vehicle won’t move, even when you’re on fairly level ground, always set your parking brake after you move the shift lever to PARK (P).


Follow the proper steps to be sure your vehicle won’t move. See “Shifting Into PARK (P)” in the Index. If you are parking on a hill and if you’re pulling a trailer, also see “Towing a Trailer” in the Index.


Windows Power Windows


The power window controls are located on the armrest near each window. Press the up or down arrows on the controls to raise or lower the windows. Your vehicle has Retained Accessory Power (RAP). See “Retained Accessory Power” in the Index.


2-33


Express-Down Window This feature is on all power windows. Press the down arrow to the second position to activate the express-down feature. If you want to stop the window as it is lowering, press the control again.


Horn The horn can be sounded by pressing on the center of the steering wheel pad. Tilt Wheel


Rear Window Lockout


Press the LOCK button down to disable the rear passenger’s window controls. A light on the button will display to indicate that the rear window controls are disabled.


When this feature is active, the driver will still have control of all windows. Press the LOCK button again to allow the passengers to use their window controls. After pressing the button, the light will go out to indicate that the rear window controls are again enabled.


The tilt wheel control is located on the outboard side of the steering column.


2-34


Tilt steering allows you to adjust the steering wheel before you drive. Raising the steering wheel to the highest level gives your legs more room when you enter and exit the vehicle. Hold the steering wheel and pull the lever toward you to bring the steering wheel close to you. Adjust the steering wheel to a comfortable position and then release the lever to lock it into place. Power Tilt and Telescopic Wheel (Option)


The power tilt wheel control is located on the outboard side of the steering column.


To operate the power tilt feature, push the control up and the steering wheel will tilt up. Push the control down and the steering wheel will go down. If the power tilt control is pressed up or down and held in that position, there will be a slight movement and a slight pause followed by a continuous movement in the direction the control is being pressed. This allows very fine control of the steering wheel position. If the control is bumped, the steering wheel moves approximately one degree in the direction commanded. Push the control forward and the steering wheel moves toward the front of the vehicle. Push the control rearward and the steering wheel moves toward the rear of the vehicle. To set the memory position, see “Vehicle Programming and Personalization Features” and “Memory Seat, Mirrors and Steering Wheel”in the Index.


2-35


Turn Signal/Multifunction Lever Turn and Lane Change Signals To signal a turn, move the lever on the left side of the steering wheel all the way up or down. The lever returns automatically when the turn is complete.


An arrow located on the instrument panel cluster will flash in the direction of the turn or lane change.


Arrows that flash rapidly when signaling for a turn or lane change may be caused by a burned-out signal bulb. Other drivers won’t see the turn signal. Replace burned-out bulbs to help avoid possible accidents. Check the fuse (see “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the Index) and check for burned-out bulbs if the arrow fails to work when signaling a turn. Headlamp High/Low Beam When the low-beam headlamps are on, push the turn signal lever away from you to change the headlamps to high beam.


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. The lever returns when it is released. If the turn signal is left on, a warning chime will sound and the Driver Information Center (DIC) will display TURN SIGNAL ON (after driving about a mile) to remind you to turn it off.


This light on the instrument panel cluster will be on, indicating high-beam usage.


Pull the turn signal lever toward you to return to low-beam headlamps.


2-36


Windshield Wipers


Flash-To-Pass This feature lets you use the high-beam headlamps to signal the driver in front of you that you want to pass. Pull the turn signal lever toward you briefly to flash-to-pass. When you do: D If the headlamps are either off or in the Daytime


Running Lamps (DRL) mode, the high-beam headlamps will turn on. They’ll stay on as long as you hold the lever there. Release the lever to turn them off.


D If the headlamps are on low beam, they will remain active and the high beam will also illuminate until you release the lever.


You can control the windshield wipers by moving the lever with the wiper symbol on it. This lever is located on the right side of your steering column. For information on wiper-activated headlamp operation, refer to “Wiper-Activated Headlamps” in the Index.


2-37


Rainsenset Wipers (If Equipped) The moisture sensor is mounted on the passenger’s interior side of the windshield behind the rearview mirror and is used to automatically operate the wipers by monitoring the amount of moisture that is on the windshield. The Rainsense system can be activated by moving the wiper stalk up to the INT position and turning the INT ADJ band to one of five sensitivity settings. The bottom INT ADJ position is the lowest sensitivity setting. This allows more water to collect on the windshield between wipes. Turning the INT ADJ band to the other INT ADJ settings increases the sensitivity of the system and the frequency of wipes. A single wipe will occur each time you turn the INT ADJ band to a higher sensitivity setting. An initial wipe will occur when you turn the ignition on, while the wiper switch is in the INT position, as a reminder that Rainsense is active. The windshield wipers also remain in a “high park” position, even when the ignition is turned off.


LO or HI: Move the lever up to LO for steady wiping at a slow speed. Move the lever higher to HI for steady wiping at a high speed. INT (DELAY): Move the lever up to the INT position, then turn the INT ADJ band, which is located on the lever, to adjust the delay time. The higher you turn the INT ADJ band, the more frequent the wipers will operate. OFF: Lower the lever to its resting position (OFF) to turn off the wipers. MIST: Pull the lever down once and release it for a single wipe cycle. For more cycles, hold the lever down in the MIST position longer. To wash the windshield, press the button located at the tip of the lever. Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades before using them. If they’re frozen to the windshield, carefully loosen or thaw them. If the blades do become damaged, get new blades or blade inserts. Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor. A circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools. Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.


2-38


The Rainsense wipers operate in a delay mode as well as a continuous low or high speed depending on the amount of moisture and the sensitivity setting. The MIST and “wash” cycles operate as normal and are not affected by the Rainsense function.


Windshield Washer The windshield washer has both a “demand” mode and a “programmed” mode, depending on the amount of windshield washer fluid you need.


NOTICE:


CAUTION:


The wipers must be turned off when going through a car wash to avoid damage.


It is important to note that the Rainsense wiping feature (INT ADJ) can be overridden at any time by manually changing the wiper control to LO or HI speed.


NOTICE:


Do not place stickers or other items on the exterior glass surface directly in front of the moisture sensor. Doing this could cause the moisture sensor to malfunction.


In freezing weather, don’t use your washer until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking your vision.


To spray washer fluid on the windshield in the programmed mode, press and release the button on the tip of the lever. The washer will provide a measured amount of fluid to the windshield and the wiper will either stop or return to your original wiping speed. To spray washer fluid on the windshield in the demand mode, press and hold the button until you have enough fluid, and the wipers will either stop or return to your original wiping speed. CHECK WASHER FLUID will be displayed on the DIC when the washer fluid reaches a low level.


2-39


Cruise Control


The cruise control lever is located on the lower right side of the steering column.


With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can help on long trips. Cruise control does not work at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h). When cruise control is on, you will see the CRUISE light on the instrument panel cluster. Cruise control shuts off when you apply your brakes.


CAUTION:


D Cruise control can be dangerous where you can’t drive safely at a steady speed. So, don’t use your cruise control on winding roads or in heavy traffic.


D Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery


roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can cause needless wheel spinning, and you could lose control. Don’t use cruise control on slippery roads.


If your vehicle is in cruise control when the traction control system begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise control will automatically disengage. (See “Traction Control System” in the Index.) When road conditions allow you to safely use it again, you may turn the cruise control back on.


2-40


Setting Cruise Control


CAUTION:


If you leave your cruise control switch on when you’re not using cruise, you might hit a button and go into cruise when you don’t want to. You could be startled and even lose control. Keep the cruise control switch off until you want to use cruise control.


1. Press the button at the end of the lever to turn on


the system.


2. Accelerate to the speed you want. 3. Move the lever down once to SET/CST. The


CRUISE light will come on.


4. Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.


Resuming a Set Speed Setting the cruise control at a desired speed and then applying the brake will end the cruise function.


Once you’re going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more, you can move the cruise control lever up to RES/ACC (Resume/Accelerate) briefly to reset. This returns you to your desired preset speed. The CRUISE light will come on. If you hold the lever at RES/ACC, the vehicle will accelerate until you release the lever or apply the brake. So unless you want to go faster, don’t hold the lever at RES/ACC.


Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control There are two ways to go to a higher speed: D Use the accelerator pedal to go to a higher speed.


Move the cruise lever to SET/CST and then release the lever and the accelerator pedal. You’ll now cruise at the higher speed.


D Move the lever up to RES/ACC. Hold it there until you reach a desired speed and then release the lever. To increase your speed in very small amounts, move the lever up to RES/ACC one second at a time. Each time you do this, your vehicle will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.


The accelerate feature will only work after you have set the cruise control speed by moving the cruise lever down to SET/CST.


2-41


Reducing Speed While Using Cruise Control There are two ways to reduce your speed while using cruise control: D Move the cruise lever down to SET/CST and hold it


there until you reach a desired lower speed, then release it.


D To slow down in very small amounts, move the


cruise lever to SET/CST briefly. Each time you do this, you’ll go 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.


Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When you take your foot off the pedal, your vehicle will slow down to the cruise control speed you set earlier.


Using Cruise Control on Hills How well your cruise control will work on hills depends upon your speed, load and the steepness of the hills. When going up steep hills, you may have to step on the accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. When going downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear to keep your speed down. Of course, applying the brakes or downshifting into FIRST (1) takes you out of cruise control. Many drivers find this to be too much trouble and don’t use cruise control on steep hills.


Ending Cruise Control There are three ways to end cruise control: D Step lightly on the brake pedal. D Press the button at the end of the cruise lever. D Pull the cruise lever (CANCEL) toward you.


Erasing Speed Memory The cruise control set speed memory is erased when you turn off the cruise control or the ignition.


2-42


Exterior Lamps


The control located on the left side of the instrument panel operates these lamp systems:


D Parking Lamps D Headlamps D Taillamps D Sidemarker Lamps D License Plate Lamp D Underhood Lamp D Fog Lamps (STS Only) D Instrument Panel Lights Instrument panel backlighting will dim only when it is dark outside.


Parking Lamps Turn the exterior lamps control knob once clockwise to turn on the parking lamps, taillamps, sidemarker lamps, license plate lamp and underhood lamp. Turn the control counterclockwise to turn these lamps off. The parking brake indicator light will be on if the parking lamps are on (with the engine off and the ignition in ACC or ON). Headlamps The control for the headlamps is located on the left side of the instrument panel. Turn the exterior lamps control knob all the way clockwise to turn the headlamps on. Turn the control knob all the way counterclockwise to turn the headlamps off. Wiper-Activated Headlamps This feature turns on the headlamps and parking lamps after the windshield wipers have been in use for approximately six seconds.


2-43


To operate the wiper-activated headlamps, the Twilight SentinelR must be on. If the wiper-activated headlamps are on and the ignition key is turned to ACC, the wiper-activated headlamps will continue. When you turn the key to OFF or ACC, the wiper-activated headlamps will immediately turn off. The wiper-activated headlamps will turn off if you turn off the Twilight Sentinel or the windshield wipers. If turned off by deactivating the Twilight Sentinel, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message will be displayed on the Driver’s Information Center (DIC). Lamps On Reminder You will hear a warning chime if you open the driver’s door while leaving the lamps on and the exterior lamps control is activated. An exception to this is when you’re using Twilight Sentinel or if the ignition is on.


Daytime Running Lamps Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for others to see the front of your vehicle during the day. DRL can be helpful in many different driving conditions, but they can be especially helpful in the short periods after dawn and before sunset. The DRL system will make the high-beam headlamps come on at reduced brightness when: D The ignition is on, D the headlamp switch is off and D the transaxle is not in PARK (P). When DRL are on, only your high-beam headlamps (at reduced brightness) will be on. No other exterior lamps such as the parking lamps, taillamps, etc. will be on when the DRL are being used. Your instrument panel won’t be lit up either.


2-44


When the Twilight SentinelR switch is on and it’s dark enough outside, the high-beam headlamps (at reduced intensity) will turn off and normal low-beam headlamp operation will occur. When the Twilight Sentinel switch is on and it’s bright enough outside, the regular lamps will go off, and the high-beam headlamps at reduced brightness will take over. If it’s dark outside and the Twilight Sentinel control is off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message will display on the Driver’s Information Center (DIC). This message informs the driver that turning on the exterior lamps is recommended even though the DRL are still illuminated. This message indicates that it has become dark enough outside to require the headlamps and/or other exterior lamps. Turning on the Twilight Sentinel or the headlamps will deactivate the DRL and remove the HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message. If the parking lamps or the fog lamps were turned on instead, the DRL will still deactivate and the HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message will continue to be displayed. To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, turn off the Twilight Sentinel and shift the transaxle into PARK (P). Placing your vehicle in PARK (P) disables the DRL. The DRL will stay off until you shift out of PARK (P).


To drive your vehicle with the DRL off, turn off the Twilight Sentinel and manually turn on the parking lamps or fog lamps (if equipped). As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular headlamp system when you need it. Fog Lamps (STS Only) Use the fog lamps for better vision in foggy or misty conditions. When you push the fog lamp button located next to the exterior lamps control, a small indicator light in the fog lamp button and the LIGHTS ON and fog lamp indicator lights on the instrument panel cluster will tell you that the fog lamps and the parking lamps are on. Pushing the fog lamp button again will turn them off. If you turn on the high-beam headlamps, the fog lamps will turn off. They’ll turn back on again when you change to low-beam headlamps. You can use the fog lamp button to turn the fog lamps on or off when the parking lamps or headlamps are on. When the Twilight SentinelR is on and the fog lamps are turned on, the fog lamps, headlamps and parking lamps will remain on.


2-45


Cornering Lamps The cornering lamps come on when the headlamps or parking lamps are on and you signal a turn. They provide more light for cornering.


Twilight SentinelR


This control is located below the exterior lamps control knob. It automatically turns the lamps on and off by sensing how dark it is outside.


To operate the Twilight Sentinel, leave the exterior lamps control knob off and move the TWILIGHT lever to any position but OFF. If you move the lever all the way to the right, the lamps will remain on for approximately three minutes after the ignition has been turned to OFF or ACC. If you move the lever so it is just on, the lamps will go off quickly when you turn the ignition out of ON. You can adjust the delay time from only a few seconds to three minutes. If it’s dark enough outside and Twilight Sentinel is turned off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message will display on the Driver’s Information Center (DIC). This message informs the driver that turning on the exterior lamps is recommended (it has become dark enough outside to require the headlamps and/or other exterior lamps). Turning on the Twilight Sentinel, the headlamps or the fog lamps will remove the HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message.


2-46


Light Sensor


Exterior Lighting Battery Saver If the manual parking lamps or headlamps have been left on, the exterior lamps will turn off approximately ten minutes after the ignition is turned to OFF. This protects against draining the battery in case you have accidentally left the headlamps or parking lamps on. The battery saver does not work if the headlamps are turned on after the ignition switch is turned to OFF. If you need to leave the lamps on for more than 10 minutes, use the exterior lamps control knob to turn the lamps back on. To delay the lamps from turning off, see “Twilight Sentinel” in the Index.


The light sensor for the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) and the Twilight Sentinel is located on the driver’s side of the front defogger grille. If you cover the sensor, it will read “dark” and the lamps will come on.


2-47


Interior Lamps Instrument Panel Intensity/Brightness Control With the parking lamps on, the instrument panel lighting automatically dims when it becomes dark outside and brightens when it becomes light outside. When it’s dark, and if the parking lamps are on, the brightness control can be manually adjusted by using the instrument panel brightness control.


The button is located to the right of the Twilight Sentinel control. Push the button in to release it to the outward position.


Turn the button counterclockwise to dim and clockwise to brighten the lighting. Push the button in to return it to the original storage position.


2-48


Interior Lamps Control


The interior lamps control, located in the overhead console, has three positions: OFF, AUTO and ON.


With the control at AUTO and the front door opened, the overhead console light, front hush panel lamps and rear footwell lamps in the door will automatically come on. When the rear door is opened, all the front door lighting and rear overhead lamps will come on. When the control is in ON, the courtesy lamps are turned on. When the control is in OFF, the lamps are turned off. (All automatic interior lighting functions are terminated.) When the interior lamp control is in OFF, only the driver’s door controls and ignition switch backlighting functions will operate.


Illuminated Entry The illuminated entry system turns on the courtesy lamps and the backlighting to the driver’s door switches and to the ignition key when a door is opened or if you press the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter unlock button. The illuminated entry system works with the light sensor and it must be dark outside in order for the courtesy lamps or backlighting to turn on. The courtesy lamps turn off approximately 25 seconds after the last door is closed or after the ignition key is turned to RUN or if the RKE transmitter lock button is pressed. The courtesy lamps turn off approximately 40 seconds after the doors are unlocked with the RKE transmitter if no door is opened. Parade Dimming This feature prohibits the dimming of the instrument panel lights during daylight while the parking lamps are on. This feature works with the light sensor and is fully automatic. When the light sensor reads darkness outside, the instrument panel lights can be adjusted by following the steps under “Instrument Panel Intensity/Brightness Control.” Backlighting to the instrument panel will also turn on.


Reading Lamps The reading lamps are located in the roof. These lamps and the interior courtesy lamps come on when any door is opened and it is dark outside. The rear lamps come on when a rear door is opened. Press the button near the lamps to turn them on and off. If the reading lamps are left on, they automatically shut off 10 minutes after the ignition has been turned off. Battery Load Management The battery load management feature is designed to monitor the vehicle’s electrical load and determine when the battery is in a heavy discharge condition. During times of high electrical loading, the engine may idle at a higher revolutions per minute (rpm) setting than normal to make sure the battery charges. High electrical loads may occur when several of the following are on: headlamps, high beams, fog lamps, rear window defogger, high blower fan, heated seats and engine cooling fans.


2-49


Mirrors Electrochromic Day/Night Rearview Mirror with Compass Your vehicle has an electrochromic inside rearview mirror with a compass.


By pressing the MIRROR side of the button located at the bottom of the mirror, the mirror automatically changes to reduce glare from headlamps behind you.


If the battery continues to discharge, even with the engine idling at a higher rpm setting, some electrical loads will automatically be reduced. When this occurs, the rear window defogger may take slightly longer to clear the glass, the heated seats may not get as warm as they usually do and the fan blower may cut back to a lower speed. For more battery saving information, see “Battery Saver Active Message” in the Index. Inadvertent Power Battery Saver This feature is designed to protect your vehicle’s battery against drainage from the interior lamps, trunk lamp, glove box lamp, cigarette lighters or the garage door opener. When the ignition is turned off, the power to these features will automatically turn off after 10 minutes. Power will be restored for an additional 10 minutes if any door is opened, the trunk is opened or the courtesy lamp switch is turned on.


2-50


The mirror also includes an eight-point compass display in the upper right corner of the mirror face. When on, the compass automatically calibrates as the vehicle is driven. When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar material dampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the mirror housing.


Cleaning the Photocells Use a cotton swab and glass cleaner to clean the photocells when necessary.


Mirror Operation The right side of the button, located at the bottom of the mirror, turns the electrochromic mirror on and off. To turn on the automatic dimming feature, press MIRROR. To turn off the automatic dimming, press MIRROR again. The indicator light will be illuminated when this feature is active.


Time Delay The automatic mirror has a time delay feature which prevents unnecessary changing from the night back to the day position. This delay prevents rapid changing of the mirror as you drive under lights and through traffic.


Compass Operation Press the COMPASS side of the button to turn the compass on or off. While the ignition is on and the compass feature is selected, the compass will show two character boxes for approximately two seconds. After two seconds, the mirror will display the compass heading.


Compass Calibration If, after two seconds, the display does not show a compass heading (“N” for North, for example), there may be a strong magnetic field interfering with the compass. Such interference may be caused by a magnetic antenna mount, magnetic note pad holder or a similar magnetic item. If the letter “C” should ever appear in the compass window, the mirror needs calibration.


2-51


The mirror can be calibrated in one of two ways: D Drive the vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less


until the display reads a direction, or


D Drive the vehicle on your everyday routine.


Compass Variance The mirror is set in zone eight upon leaving the factory. It will be necessary to adjust the compass to compensate for compass variance if you live outside zone eight. Under certain circumstances, as during a long distance cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjust for compass variance. Compass variance is the difference between earth’s magnetic north and true geographic north. If not adjusted to account for compass variance, your compass could give false readings. To adjust for compass variance: 1. Use the COMPASS side of the button located at the


bottom of the mirror. Press and hold COMPASS until a zone number appears in the display.


2. Find your current location and variance zone number


on the following zone map.


2-52


3. Press COMPASS on the bottom of the mirror


until the new zone number appears in the display. After you stop pressing the button, the display will show a “C” and will need recalibration.


Power Remote Control Mirror (Heated)


This feature is located on the driver’s door armrest. Move the L/R select switch located under the power mirror control to choose the left or right mirror.


To adjust the mirror, move the arrow control in the direction you want the mirror to go. Leave the L/R select switch in the center position to disable mirror movement. This is helpful in preventing unwanted mirror movement in case the control is accidentally bumped while driving. Adjust each outside mirror so the vehicle is barely visible in the mirror to maximize your side view.


The mirrors can also be programmed for personalization and parallel parking feature if you have the optional memory package. For more information, see “Memory Seat, Mirrors and Steering Wheel” and “Vehicle Programming and Personalization Features” in the Index. For information on the heated outside mirrors, see “Rear Window Defogger” in the Index.


Driver’s Outside Auto-Dimming Rearview Mirror Only the driver’s side outside mirror will adjust for the glare of headlamps behind you. This feature is controlled by pressing the MIRROR side of the button on and off. This button is located at the bottom of the electrochromic mirror. See “Electrochromic Day/Night Rearview Mirror with Compass” in the Index for more information.


2-53


Convex Outside Mirror Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex mirror’s surface is curved so you can see more from the driver’s seat. This mirror does not have a dimming feature.


CAUTION:


A convex mirror can make things (like other vehicles) look farther away than they really are. If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before changing lanes.


Curb View Assist Mirror (If Equipped) If your vehicle is equipped with memory mirrors, it will also be equipped with the curb view assist mirror feature. This feature will cause the passenger’s mirror to tilt when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This feature is especially useful in allowing you to view the curb when


you are parallel parking. If further adjustment is needed after the mirror is tilted, the power mirror controls may be used to adjust the mirror. If the mirror control is pressed while the passenger’s mirror is tilted, the mirror will move in that direction, but will return to its original position once the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R) and a five-second delay has occurred. To program the feature, see “Mirror to Curb in Reverse” in the Index.


Storage Compartments Glove Box The glove box is located in front of the passenger’s seat. To lock the glove box door, insert the master key into the lock cylinder and turn it clockwise. Turn the key counterclockwise to unlock the door. Map Pocket The map/storage pockets are located on each front door as well as on the passenger’s and driver’s front seatbacks.

Reverse the steps to reinstall. Convenience Net The convenience net is inside the back wall of the trunk. Put small loads, like grocery bags, behind the net. It can help keep them from falling over during sharp turns or quick starts and stops. The net is not for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the trunk as far forward as you can. When not using the net, hook the net to the tabs securing it to the sill plate.


2-55


Cigarette Lighter The front cigarette lighter is located near the ashtray. Press it all the way in and release. It will pop back out by itself when it’s ready to light. You may also have a lighter on the back of the center console near the rear seat air outlet. Power to the cigarette lighter will shut off 10 minutes after the ignition is turned off. This helps to prevent battery drainage. For more information, see “Inadvertent Power Battery Saver” in the Index.


NOTICE:


Don’t hold a cigarette lighter in with your hand while it is heating. If you do, it won’t be able to back away from the heating element when it’s ready. That can make it overheat, damaging the lighter and the heating element.


Ashtrays and Cigarette Lighter (Option) The ashtrays and cigarette lighters may be ordered through your dealer.


NOTICE:


Don’t put papers or other flammable items into your ashtrays. Hot cigarettes or other smoking materials could ignite them, causing a damaging fire.

1. If you have previously programmed a transmitter channel, proceed to Step 2. Otherwise, hold down the two outside buttons on the HomeLink Transmitter until the indicator light begins to flash rapidly (after 20 seconds). Then release the buttons. This procedure initializes the memory and erases any previous settings for all three channels.


2. Decide which one of the three channels you want to program. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter about 2 to 5 inches (5 to 13 cm) away from the surface of the HomeLink Transmitter so that you can still see the indicator light.


3. Using both hands, press the hand-held transmitter


button and the desired button on the HomeLink Transmitter. Continue to press both buttons through Step 4.


4. Hold down both buttons until you see the indicator


light on the HomeLink Transmitter flash slowly and then rapidly. The rapid flashing indicates that the HomeLink Transmitter has been programmed. Release both buttons once the indicator light starts to flash rapidly.


If you have trouble programming the HomeLink Transmitter, make sure that you have followed the directions exactly as described. The HomeLink Transmitter may not work with older garage door openers that do not meet current Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you cannot program the transmitter after repeated attempts, refer to “Rolling Code Programming” later in this section or contact the HomeLink Transmitter manufacturer at 1-800-355-3515. Be sure to keep the original hand-held transmitter in case you need to erase and reprogram the HomeLink Transmitter. Note to Canadian Owners: During programming, the hand-held transmitter may automatically stop transmitting after one or two seconds. In this case, you should press and re-press the button on the hand-held transmitter every two seconds without ever releasing the button on the HomeLink Transmitter. Release both buttons when the indicator light on the HomeLink Transmitter begins to flash rapidly.


2-61


“Rolling Code” Programming (If Equipped) If you have not previously programmed the hand-held transmitter to the HomeLink Transmitter, see “Programming the HomeLink Transmitter” listed previously. If you have completed this programming already, you now need to train the garage door opener motor head unit to recognize the HomeLink Transmitter. Refer to your garage door opener owner’s manual for the proper transmitter training procedure for your garage door opener brand. 1. Find the training button on the garage door opener


motor head unit. The exact location and color of the button may vary by garage door opener brand. If you have difficulty finding the training button, refer to your garage door opener owner’s manual.


2. Press the training button on the garage door


opener motor head unit. Following this step, you have 30 seconds to start Step 3.


Operating the HomeLink Transmitter Press and release the appropriate button on the HomeLink Transmitter. The indicator light comes on while the signal is being transmitted. The HomeLink Transmitter is disabled when the valet lock switch inside the glove box is activated. For more information, see “Valet Lock” in the Index. If the hand-held transmitter appears to program the HomeLink Transmitter but does not open your garage door, and if the garage door opener was manufactured after 1996, the garage door opener may have a “rolling code” system. A rolling code system changes the code of the garage door opener every time you open or close the garage door. To determine if you have this system, press the button on the HomeLink Transmitter that you have programmed already. If the indicator light on the HomeLink Transmitter flashes rapidly for two seconds and then turns solid, the garage door opener has a rolling code system. In a rolling code system, the garage door motor head unit must be trained to the HomeLink Transmitter.


2-62


3. Return to the HomeLink Transmitter in your


vehicle and firmly press and release the HomeLink Transmitter button you have already programmed for two to three seconds. Press and release the button again (you may need to do this step up to three times) to make sure that the HomeLink Transmitter has been trained to the garage door opener motor head unit. Check that the training was successful.


The garage door opener should now recognize the HomeLink Transmitter. You may either use the HomeLink Transmitter or the hand-held transmitter to open the garage door. If after following these instructions, you still have problems training the garage door opener, contact the HomeLink Transmitter manufacturer at 1-800-355-3515.


Erasing Channels To erase all three programmed channels, hold down the two outside buttons until the indicator light begins to flash (after 20 seconds). Release both buttons. Accessories Accessories for the HomeLink Transmitter are available from the manufacturer of the unit. If you would like additional information, please call 1-800-355-3515.

2-66


Speedometer and Odometer The speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h). The odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven, in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers (used in Canada). You may wonder what happens if a vehicle has to have a new odometer installed. The new one may read the correct mileage. This is because your vehicle’s computer has stored the mileage in memory.


Trip Odometer There are two trip odometers, which are indicated by Trip A and Trip B. In order to change from one to the other, press the A/B portion of the TRIP button.


Press the RESET part of the button until zeros appear to reset the odometers. If your vehicle is first sold in the United States, the trip odometer will return to zero after 999.9 miles (1 609 km). If your vehicle is first sold in Canada, the trip odometer will return to zero after 1 999.9 km (1,242 miles). The RESET TRIP A/B button only resets the trip odometer (A or B) that is being displayed. Each trip odometer has to be reset individually.


Display Mode


This button is located between the RESET TRIP A/B button and the ENG/MET button.


By pressing the bottom of this button, you can tell how many miles you have traveled on either your Trip A or Trip B odometer since you last set the odometer back to zero.


Press DSPL MODE to turn the backlighting and the digital speed image on and off.

English/Metric Display


Tachometer


You can go back and forth from English (miles) to metric (kilometers) by pressing this button.


This gage indicates the engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).


Other readings such as temperature, fuel and trip odometer also go back and forth between English and metric.


Vehicle Speed Limiter This feature prevents your vehicle from exceeding speeds that the tires are not rated for. When this happens, the engine’s fuel supply is shut off. When the vehicle speed slows, the fuel supply will come on again.


2-68


NOTICE:


Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in the red area or engine damage may occur.


Engine Speed Limiter This feature prevents the engine from operating at too many revolutions per minute (rpm). When the engine’s rpm are critically high, the fuel supply to the engine is shut off. When the engine speed slows, the fuel supply will come on again. This helps prevent damage to the engine.


Warning Lights, Gages and Indicators This part describes the warning lights and gages that may be on your vehicle. The pictures will help you locate them. Warning lights and gages can signal that something is wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention to your warning lights and gages could also save you or others from injury. Warning lights come on when there may be or is a problem with one of your vehicle’s functions. As you will see in the details on the next few pages, some warning lights come on briefly when you start the engine just to let you know they’re working. If you are familiar with this section, you should not be alarmed when this happens. Gages can indicate when there may be or is a problem with one of your vehicle’s functions. Often gages and warning lights work together to let you know when there’s a problem with your vehicle.


When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on when you are driving, or when one of the gages shows there may be a problem, check the section that tells you what to do about it. Please follow this manual’s advice. Waiting to do repairs can be costly -- and even dangerous. So please get to know your warning lights and gages. They’re a big help. Safety Belt Reminder Light When the key is turned to ON or START, a chime will come on for about eight seconds to remind people to fasten their safety belts.


The safety belt light will also come on and stay on for about 70 seconds. If the driver’s belt is already buckled, the light will come on briefly, but the chime will not sound.


2-69


Air Bag Readiness Light There is an air bag readiness light on the instrument panel, which shows AIR BAG (United States) or the air bag symbol (Canada). The system checks the air bag’s electrical system for malfunctions. The light tells you if there is an electrical problem. The system check includes the air bag sensors, the air bag modules, the wiring and the crash sensing and diagnostic module. For more information on the air bag system, see “Air Bag” in the Index.


If the air bag readiness light stays on after you start the vehicle or comes on when you are driving, your air bag system may not work properly. Have your vehicle serviced right away.


CAUTION:


If the air bag readiness light stays on after you start your vehicle, it means the air bag system may not be working properly. The air bags in your vehicle may not inflate in a crash, or they could even inflate without a crash. To help avoid injury to yourself or others, have your vehicle serviced right away if the air bag readiness light stays on after you start your vehicle.


United States


Canada


This light will come on when you start your vehicle, and it will flash for a few seconds. Then the light should go out. This means the system is ready.


The air bag readiness light should flash for a few seconds when you turn the ignition key to ON. If the light doesn’t come on then, have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.


2-70


Charging System Light


This light goes on when you turn your key to ON or START. It goes off once you start your engine.


That’s a check to be sure the light works. If it doesn’t come on, be sure to have it fixed so it will be there to warn you if something goes wrong. If this light stays on, you need service and you should take your vehicle to the dealer at once. To save your battery until you get there, turn off all accessories. Brake System Warning and Park Brake Indicator Light Your vehicle’s hydraulic brake system is divided into two parts. If one part isn’t working, the other part can still work and stop you. For good braking, though, you need both parts working well. If the warning light comes on, there is a brake problem. Have your brake system inspected right away.


This light should come on briefly when you turn the ignition key to ON. If it doesn’t come on then, have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there’s a problem.


If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the road and stop carefully. You may notice that the pedal is harder to push. Or, the pedal may go closer to the floor. It may take longer to stop. If the light is still on, have the vehicle towed for service. (See “Towing Your Vehicle” in the Index.)


CAUTION:


Your brake system may not be working properly if the brake system warning light is on. Driving with the brake system warning light on can lead to an accident. If the light is still on after you’ve pulled off the road and stopped carefully, have the vehicle towed for service.


2-71


When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light will also come on when you set your parking brake. The light will stay on if your parking brake doesn’t release fully. If it stays on after your parking brake is fully released, it means you have a brake problem. Anti-Lock Brake System Warning Light With the anti-lock brake system, the light(s) will come on when you start your engine and may stay on for several seconds. That’s normal.


If the light stays on, turn the ignition to OFF. Or, if the light comes on when you’re driving, stop as soon as possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the engine again to reset the system. If the light still stays on, or comes on again while you’re driving, your vehicle needs service. If the regular brake system warning light isn’t on, you still have brakes, but you don’t have anti-lock brakes. If the regular brake system warning light is also on, you don’t have anti-lock brakes and there’s a problem with your regular brakes. See “Brake System Warning Light” earlier in this section.


2-72


The anti-lock brake system warning light should come on briefly when you turn the ignition key to ON. If the light doesn’t come on then, have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem. Traction Control System Warning Light


United States


Canada


This warning light should come on briefly as you start the engine. If the warning light doesn’t come on then, have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there’s a problem. If it stays on, or comes on when you’re driving, there may be a problem with your traction control system and your vehicle may need service. When this warning light is on, the system will not limit wheel spin. Adjust your driving accordingly.


The traction control system warning light may come on for the following reasons: D If there’s a brake system problem that is specifically related to traction control, the traction control system will turn off and the warning light will come on.


D If the traction control system is affected by an


engine-related problem, the system will turn off and the warning light will come on.


If the traction control system warning light comes on and stays on for an extended period of time when the system is turned on, your vehicle needs service. Engine Coolant Temperature Warning Light


This light tells you that the engine has overheated. You should stop the car and turn the engine off as soon as possible.


A warning chime should also sound if this light comes on.


As a check, the light should come on for a few seconds when you start your engine. See “Engine Overheating” in the Index. Engine Coolant Temperature Gage


United States


Canada


This gage shows the engine coolant temperature. If the gage pointer moves into the red area, the engine is too hot. That reading means the same thing as the warning light -- the engine coolant has overheated. See “Engine Overheating” in the Index.


2-73


Malfunction Indicator Lamp (Service Engine Soon Light in the United States or Check Engine Light in Canada)


United States


Canada


Your vehicle is equipped with a computer which monitors operation of the fuel, ignition and emission control systems. This system is called OBD II (On-Board Diagnostics-Second Generation) and is intended to assure that emissions are at acceptable levels for the life of the vehicle, helping to produce a cleaner environment. The SERVICE ENGINE SOON or CHECK ENGINE light comes on to indicate that there is a problem and service is required. Malfunctions often will be indicated by the system before any problem is apparent. This may prevent more serious damage to your vehicle. This system is also designed to assist your service technician in correctly diagnosing any malfunction.


2-74


NOTICE:


If you keep driving your vehicle with this light on, after a while, your emission controls may not work as well, your fuel economy may not be as good and your engine may not run as smoothly. This could lead to costly repairs that may not be covered by your warranty.


NOTICE:


Modifications made to the engine, transaxle, exhaust or fuel system of your vehicle or the replacement of the original tires with other than those of the same Tire Performance Criteria (TPC) can affect your vehicle’s emission controls and may cause the SERVICE ENGINE SOON or CHECK ENGINE light to come on. Modifications to these systems could lead to costly repairs not covered by your warranty. This may also result in a failure to pass a required Emission Inspection/Maintenance test.


This light should come on, as a check to show you it is working, when the ignition is on and the engine is not running. If the light doesn’t come on, have it repaired. This light will also come on during a malfunction in one of two ways: D Light Flashing -- A misfire condition has been


detected. A misfire increases vehicle emissions and may damage the emission control system on your vehicle. Dealer or qualified service center diagnosis and service may be required.


D Light On Steady -- An emission control


system malfunction has been detected on your vehicle. Dealer or qualified service center diagnosis and service may be required.


If the Light Is Flashing The following may prevent more serious damage to your vehicle: D Reducing vehicle speed. D Avoiding hard accelerations. D Avoiding steep uphill grades. D If you are towing a trailer, reduce the amount of


cargo being hauled as soon as it is possible.


If the light stops flashing and remains on steady, see “If the Light Is On Steady” following. If the light continues to flash, when it is safe to do so, stop the vehicle. Find a safe place to park your vehicle. Turn the key off, wait at least 10 seconds and restart the engine. If the light remains on steady, see “If the Light Is On Steady” following. If the light is still flashing, follow the previous steps, and drive the vehicle to your dealer or qualified service center for service.


If the Light Is On Steady You may be able to correct the emission system malfunction by considering the following: Did you recently put fuel into your vehicle? If so, reinstall the fuel cap, making sure to fully install the cap. See “Filling Your Tank” in the Index. The diagnostic system can determine if the fuel cap has been left off or improperly installed. A loose or missing fuel cap will allow fuel to evaporate into the atmosphere. A few driving trips with the cap properly installed should turn the light off. Did you just drive through a deep puddle of water? If so, your electrical system may be wet. The condition will usually be corrected when the electrical system dries out. A few driving trips should turn the light off.


2-75


Are you low on fuel? As your engine starts to run out of fuel, your engine may not run as efficiently as designed since small amounts of air are sucked into the fuel line causing a misfire. The system can detect this. Adding fuel should correct this condition. Make sure to install the fuel cap properly. See “Filling Your Tank” in the Index. It will take a few driving trips to turn the light off. Have you recently changed brands of fuel? If so, be sure to fuel your vehicle with quality fuel (see “Fuel” in the Index). Poor fuel quality will cause your engine not to run as efficiently as designed. You may notice this as stalling after start-up, stalling when you put the vehicle into gear, misfiring, hesitation on acceleration or stumbling on acceleration. (These conditions may go away once the engine is warmed up.) This will be detected by the system and cause the light to turn on. If you experience one or more of these conditions, change the fuel brand you use. It will require at least one full tank of the proper fuel to turn the light off. If none of the above steps have made the light turn off, have your dealer or qualified service center check the vehicle. Your dealer has the proper test equipment and diagnostic tools to fix any mechanical or electrical problems that may have developed.


2-76


Emissions Inspection and Maintenance Programs Some state/provincial and local governments have or may begin programs to inspect the emission control equipment on your vehicle. Failure to pass this inspection could prevent you from getting a vehicle registration. Here are some things you need to know in order to help your vehicle pass an inspection: Your vehicle will not pass this inspection if the SERVICE ENGINE SOON or CHECK ENGINE light is on or not working properly. Your vehicle will not pass this inspection if the OBD (on-board diagnostic) system determines that critical emission control systems have not been completely diagnosed by the system. The vehicle would be considered not ready for inspection. This can happen if you have recently replaced your battery or if your battery has run down. The diagnostic system is designed to evaluate critical emission control systems during normal driving. This may take several days of routine driving. If you have done this and your vehicle still does not pass the inspection for lack of OBD system readiness, see your dealer or qualified service center to prepare the vehicle for inspection.


Oil Pressure Light


This light tells you if there could be a problem with your engine oil pressure.


NOTICE:


Damage to your engine from neglected oil problems can be costly and is not covered by your warranty.


The light goes on when you turn your key to ON or START. It goes off once you start your engine. That’s a check to be sure the light works. If it doesn’t come on, be sure to have it fixed so it will be there to warn you if something goes wrong. When the light comes on and stays on, it means that oil isn’t flowing through your engine properly. You could be low on oil and you might have some other system problem.


CAUTION:


Don’t keep driving if the oil pressure is low. If you do, your engine can become so hot that it catches fire. You or others could be burned. Check your oil as soon as possible and have your vehicle serviced.

Most messages can be removed from the display by pressing the INFO or INFO RESET button while the message is being displayed. DIC messages can also be displayed in French, German, Spanish and Japanese. Contact your dealer to have the language display adjusted for your vehicle. BATTERY NOT CHARGING - 7: This message will appear if the battery is not being charged. Have the electrical system checked by your dealership at your earliest convenience. BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE - 27: This message is displayed when the vehicle has detected that the battery voltage is dropping beyond a reasonable point. The battery saver system will start reducing certain features of the vehicle that you may not be able to notice. At the point that features are disabled, this message is displayed. It means that the vehicle is trying to save the charge in the battery. Turn off unnecessary accessories to allow the battery to recharge. BATTERY VOLTAGE HIGH - 8: This message shows that the electrical charging system is overcharging (more than 16 volts). To avoid being stranded, have the electrical system checked by your dealership. You can reduce the charging overload by using the accessories. Turn on the lamps and radio, set the climate control on AUTO and the fan speed on HI, and turn the rear window


defogger on. You can monitor battery voltage on the DIC by pressing the INFO button. The normal range is 11.5 to 15.5 volts when the engine is running. BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW - 6: This message will appear when the electrical system is charging less than 10.5 volts or if the battery has been drained. If this message appears immediately after starting, it is possible that the generator can still recharge the battery. The battery should recharge while driving but may take a few hours to do so. Consider using an auxiliary charger (be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions) to boost the battery after returning home or to a final destination. If this message appears while driving or after starting your vehicle and stays on, have it checked immediately to determine the cause of this problem. To help the generator recharge the battery quickly, you can reduce the load on the electrical system by turning off the accessories. You can monitor battery voltage on the DIC by pressing the INFO button. The normal range is 11.5 to 15.5 volts. CHANGE BRAKE PADS - 125: This message is used to notify you that the brake pads may have worn down. A sensor is connected to the brake pads and is triggered when they wear to a certain point. Have the front and rear brakes serviced by your dealer as soon as possible.


2-81


CHANGE ENGINE OIL - 82: This means that the life of the engine oil has expired and it should be changed within 200 miles. See “Engine Oil” and “Filter Recommendations” in the Maintenance Schedule booklet. After an oil change, the Oil Life Indicator must be reset. See “Oil Life Indicator, How to Reset” in the Index. CHANGE TRANS FLUID - 47: This message will appear when it is time to replace the transaxle fluid. See the Maintenance Schedule booklet for the proper fluid and change intervals. CHECK BRAKE FLUID - 37: This message will display if the ignition is in ON to inform the driver that the brake fluid level is low. Have the brake system serviced by a technician as soon as possible. See “Brake System Warning Light” in the Index. CHECK COOLANT LEVEL - 2: This message will appear when there is a low level of engine coolant. Have the cooling system serviced by a technician as soon as possible. CHECK FUEL GAGE - 50: This message will appear when the fuel supply is less than 5 gallons (18.9 L) and the display is turned off. A single chime will also sound when this message is displayed.


CHECK GAS CAP - 61: This message will appear if the gas cap has not been fully tightened. You should recheck your gas cap to ensure that it’s fully tightened. CHECK OIL LEVEL - 36: For correct operation of the low oil sensing system, your vehicle should be on a level surface. A false CHECK OIL LEVEL message may appear if the vehicle is parked on grades. The oil level sensing system does not check for actual oil level if the engine has been off for a short period of time, and the oil level is never sensed while the engine is running. If the CHECK OIL LEVEL message appears, and your vehicle has been parked on level ground with the engine off for at least 30 minutes, the oil level should be checked by observing the oil dipstick.
