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 moving beyond
the detent, and the turn signal (right or left) will flash
five times then automatically turn off.
INTERIOR LIGHTS

WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHERS
The windshield wiper/washer controls are located on
the windshield wiper/washer lever on the right side of
the steering column. The front wipers are operated by
rotating the end of the lever.
Windshield Wiper Operation
Rotate the end of the lever upward, to the first detent
past the intermittent settings for low-speed wiper op-
eration. Rotate the end of the lever upward to the
second detent past the intermittent settings for high-
speed wiper operation.
Intermittent Wiper System
Use the intermittent wiper when weather conditions
require a single wiping cycle with a variable pause
between cycles. To activate, rotate the end of the mul-
tifunction lever upward to the first detent position for
the first delay interval setting. Continue to rotate the
end of the lever to the other detents for the other delay
intervals that depend on the vehicle speed.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the lever toward you and hold
while spray is desired. If the lever is pulled while in the
delay range, the wiper will start and continue to operate
for three wipe cycles after the lever is released, and then
resume the intermittent interval previously selected.
If the lever is pulled while in the O (off) position, the
wipers will operate for three wipe cycles and then turn
off.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield
could lead to a collision. You might not see other

vehicles or other obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of
the windshield during freezing weather, warm the
windshield with the defroster before and during
windshield washer use.
Mist
Use the Mist feature when weather conditions make
occasional usage of the wipers necessary. Push the lever
upward to the MIST position and release for a single
wiping cycle.
NOTE:The Mist feature does not activate the washer
pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be sprayed on the
windshield. The wash function must be used in order to
spray the windshield with washer fluid.
CLIMATE CONTROLS
The Climate Control System allows you to regulate the
temperature, air flow, and direction of air circulating
throughout the vehicle. The controls are located on the
instrument panel below the radio.

Push and release to change the current setting, the indicator illuminates when A/C is on.
Performing this function again will cause the A/C operation to switch into manual mode
and the A/C indicator will turn off.
MAX A/C

smoke, odors, dust, or high humidity are present.
NOTE:
•Continuous use of the Recirculation mode may make the inside air stuffy and window
fogging may occur. Extended use of this mode is not recommended.
•The use of the Recirculation mode in cold or damp weather could cause windows to fog
on the inside, because of moisture buildup inside the vehicle. Select the outside air posi-
tion for maximum defogging.
•Recirculation can be used in all modes except for Defrost.
•The A/C can be deselected manually without disturbing the mode control selection.
