LIGHTING 127
Turning On and Enabling IntelliBeam
To enable the IntelliBeam system,
press
bon the turn signal lever
when it is dark outside and the
exterior lamp control is in AUTO
or
2.
Driving with IntelliBeam
The system only activates the high
beams when driving over 40 km/h
(25 mph).
The blue high-beam on light appears
on the instrument cluster when the
high beams are on. There is a sensor near the top center
of the windshield that automatically
controls the system. Keep this area of
the windshield clear of debris to allow
for best system performance.
The high-beam headlamps remain on,
under the automatic control, until one
of the following situations occurs:
.The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps.
.The system detects a preceding
vehicle's taillamps.
.The outside light is bright enough
that high-beam headlamps are not
required.
.The vehicle's speed drops below
20 km/h (12 mph).
.The IntelliBeam system is disabled
by the button on the turn signal
lever. If this happens, press
bon
the turn signal lever when the
exterior lamp control is in the
AUTO or
2position to reactivate
the IntelliBeam system. The
instrument cluster light will come
on to indicate the IntelliBeam
system is reactivated. The high beams may not turn off
automatically if the system cannot
detect another vehicle's lamps because
of any of the following:
.The other vehicle's lamps are
missing, damaged, obstructed from
view, or otherwise undetected.
.The other vehicle's lamps are
covered with dirt, snow, and/or road
spray.
.The other vehicle's lamps cannot be
detected due to dense exhaust,
smoke, fog, snow, road spray, mist,
or other airborne obstructions.
.The vehicle's windshield is dirty,
cracked, or obstructed by something
that blocks the view of the light
sensor.
.The vehicle is loaded such that the
front end points upward, causing
the light sensor to aim high and not
detect headlamps and taillamps.
.The vehicle is being driven on
winding or hilly roads.
The automatic high-beam headlamps
may need to be disabled if any of the
above conditions exist.

LIGHTING 133
A high electrical load occurs when
several of the following are on, such
as: headlamps, high beams, fog lamps,
rear window defogger, climate control
fan at high speed, heated seats, engine
cooling fans, and loads plugged into
accessory power outlets.
EPM works to prevent excessive
discharge of the battery. It does this
by balancing the generator's output
and the vehicle's electrical needs.
It can increase engine idle speed to
generate more power, whenever
needed. It can temporarily reduce the
power demands of some accessories.
Normally, these actions occur in steps
or levels, without being noticeable. In
rare cases at the highest levels of
corrective action, this action may be
noticeable to the driver. If so, a DIC
message might be displayed. If a
battery message is displayed, it is
recommended that the driver reduce
the electrical loads as much as
possible. SeeDriver Information Center
(DIC) (Base Level) 0107 or
Driver Information Center (DIC)
(Uplevel) 0110.Battery Power Protection
The battery saver feature is designed
to protect the vehicle's battery.
If some interior lamps are left on and
the ignition is turned off, the battery
rundown protection system
automatically turns the lamp off after
some time.
Exterior Lighting Battery
Saver
The exterior lamps turn off about
10 minutes after the ignition is turned
off, if the parking lamps or headlamps
have been manually left on. This
protects against draining the battery.
To restart the 10-minute timer, turn
the exterior lamp control to the
O
position and then back to the;or
2position.
To keep the lamps on for more than
10 minutes, the ignition must be on or
in ACC/ACCESSORY.

Ionizer :If equipped with an ionizer,
this feature helps to clean the air
inside the vehicle and remove
contaminants such as pollen, odors,
and dust. If the climate control
system is on and the ionizer is
enabled, the ionizer status indicator
will be lit on the climate control
display. To turn the ionizer on or off,
see Climate and Air Quality under
Vehicle Personalization 0117.Sensors
The solar sensor, located in the
defrost grille in the middle of the
instrument panel, monitors the solar
heat. Do not cover the solar sensor or
the system will not work properly.
There is also an exterior temperature
sensor behind the front grille. This
sensor reads the outside air
temperature and helps maintain the
temperature inside the vehicle. Any
cover on the front of the vehicle,
could cause a false reading in the
displayed temperature. The climate control system uses the
information from these sensors to
maintain comfort settings by
adjusting the outlet temperature, fan
speed, and air delivery mode. The
system may also supply cooler air to
the side of the vehicle facing the sun.
The recirculation mode will also be
used as needed to maintain cool
outlet temperatures.
Air Vents
Adjustable air vents are in the center
and on the sides of the instrument
panel, and on the rear of the center
console storage.

VEHICLE CARE 375
dark spots etched into the paint
surface. See“Finish Care”previously in
this section.
Interior Care
To prevent dirt particle abrasions,
regularly clean the vehicle's interior.
Immediately remove any soils.
Newspapers or dark garments can
transfer color to the vehicle’s interior.
Use a soft bristle brush to remove
dust from knobs and crevices on the
instrument cluster. Using a mild soap
solution, immediately remove hand
lotions, sunscreen, and insect
repellent from all interior surfaces or
permanent damage may result.
Use cleaners specifically designed for
the surfaces being cleaned to prevent
permanent damage. Apply all cleaners
directly to the cleaning cloth. Do not
spray cleaners on any switches or
controls. Remove cleaners quickly.
Before using cleaners, read and follow
all safety instructions on the label.
While cleaning the interior, open the
doors and windows to get proper
ventilation. To prevent damage, do not clean the
interior using the following cleaners
or techniques:
.Never use a razor or any other
sharp object to remove soil from
any interior surface.
.Never use a brush with stiff bristles.
.Never rub any surface aggressively
or with too much pressure.
.Do not use laundry detergents or
dishwashing soaps with degreasers.
For liquid cleaners, use
approximately 20 drops per 3.8 L (1
gal) of water. A concentrated soap
solution will create streaks and
attract dirt. Do not use solutions
that contain strong or caustic soap.
.Do not heavily saturate the
upholstery when cleaning.
.Do not use solvents or cleaners
containing solvents.
Interior Glass
To clean, use a terry cloth fabric
dampened with water. Wipe droplets
left behind with a clean dry cloth.
If necessary, use a commercial glass
cleaner after cleaning with plain water.
Caution
To prevent scratching, never use
abrasive cleaners on automotive
glass. Abrasive cleaners or
aggressive cleaning may damage
the rear window defogger.
Cleaning the windshield with water
during the first three to six months of
ownership will reduce tendency to fog.
Speaker Covers
Vacuum around a speaker cover
gently, so that the speaker will not be
damaged. Clean spots with water and
mild soap.
Coated Moldings
Coated moldings should be cleaned.
.When lightly soiled, wipe with a
sponge or soft, lint-free cloth
dampened with water.
.When heavily soiled, use warm
soapy water.
