I
With this feature, you can
lock and unlock the doors,
unlock the trunk, open the
fuel door and turn on your
vehicle’s interior lamps
from about
30 feet (9 m)
away using the
RKE
transmitter supplied with
your vehicle.
Your
RKE system is intended to be used as a
supplementary vehicle entry device. It is not intended to
replace, but rather should be used in conjunction with, a
door lock key.
It operates on a radio frequency subject to
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and
with Industry Canada.
This device complies with Part
15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference,
and
(2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation. This device complies with
RSS-210 of
Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation
of
the device.
Changes or modifications to this system by other than
an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
The range of this system is about
30 feet (9 m). At times
you may notice
a decrease in range. This is normal for
any
RKE system. If the transmitter does not work or if
you have to stand closer to your vehicle for the
transmitter
to work, try this:
Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions that follow.
Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left or
right, hold the transmitter higher, and
try again.
If you’re still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.

’hrn 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.
I A I An arrow on the instrument
panel will flash in the
direction of the turn
or lane change.
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’s released.
If the turn signal is left
on, a warning chime will sound
and the
DIC will display TURN SIGNAL ON (after
driving about a mile) to remind you to turn it off.
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 Changer
Flash-To-Pass
When the headlamps are on,
push the lever to turn the headlamp high beams on, and pull it to the center
position
to turn on the low
beams. This light on the
instrument panel will be on,
indicating high-beam usage.
This 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:
If the headlamps are either off or in the 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.
If the headlamps are on low beam, low beam will
remain active and high beam will also illuminate
until you release the lever.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 DlU off, turn off
the twilight sentinel and manually turn on the
parking lamps.
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 switch located
next to the headlamp switch, a small indicator light and
the LIGHTS
ON and FOG LAMP ON telltales on the
instrument panel cluster will tell you that the fog lamps
and the parking lamps
are on. Pushing the fog lamp
switch again will turn them off.
If you switch on the high-beam headlamps, the fog
lamps will turn off. They’ll turn back
on again when you
switch
to low-beam headlamps. You can use the fog
button to turn the fog lamps on or off when the
parklamps
or headlamps are on. When the twilight sentinel
is on and the fog lamp switch
is activated, the
fog lamps, headlamps and parking
lamps will remain
on.
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 Sentinel
The control is below the
headlamp
knob. It
automatically turns the
lamps
on and off by
sensing how dark it
is outside.
To operate the twilight sentinel, leave the lamp knob off
and move the
TWILIGHT slider control to any position
but
OFF.

Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality

tape is in good condition before you have your tape
player serviced.
Care of Your Compact Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original cases
or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight
and dust. If the surface of a disc is soiled, dampen a
clean, soft cloth in
a mild, neutral detergent solution and
clean it, wiping from the center to the edge.
Be sure never to touch the signal surface when handling discs. Pick up discs by grasping the outer edges or the
edge
of the hole and the outer edge.
Care of Your Compact Disc Player
The use of CD lens cleaner discs is not advised, due to
the risk
of contaminating the lens of the CD optics with
lubricants internal to the CD mechanism.
Diversity Antenna System
Your AM-FM antennas are located in the front
windshield and rear window. Be sure that the inside
surfaces of the front windshield and rear window are
not scratched and that the lines on the glass are not
damaged.
If the inside surfaces are damaged, they
could interfere with radio reception.
NOTICE:
Do not try to clear frost or other material from
the inside of the rear window with a razor blade
or anything else that
is sharp. This may damage
the rear defogger grid and affect your radio’s
ability
to pick up stations clearly. The repairs
wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.
If, when you turn on your rear window defogger, you
hear static on your radio station, it could mean that a
defogger grid line has been damaged. If this is true, the
grid line must be repaired.
If you choose to add an aftermarket cellular telephone to
your vehicle, and the antenna needs to be attached to
the
glass, be sure that you do not damage the grid lines for
the AM-FM antennas or place the cellular telephone
antenna over the grid lines.
