Turn Signal/Multifunction Lever
The lever on the left side of the steering column
includes the following:
GTurn and Lane Change Signals.Turn and
Lane-Change Signals on page 178.
53Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer on
page 179.
Flash-to-Pass Feature. SeeFlash-to-Pass on

LWindshield Washer. SeeWindshield

ICruise Control.Cruise Control on
page 183.
For information on the exterior lamps, seeExterior
Lamps on page 186later in this section.
Turn and Lane-Change Signals
The turn signal has two upward (for right) and
two downward (for left) positions. These positions
allow you to signal a turn or a lane change.
To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up or
down. When the turn is nished, the lever will
return automatically.
To signal a lane change, raise or lower the lever for
less than one second until the arrow starts to ash.
This will cause the turn signals to automatically
ash three times. It will ash six times if the
tow-haul mode is active. Holding the turn signal
lever for more than one second will cause the turn
signals to ash until you release the lever. The lever
will return by itself when it is released.
178

An arrow on the
instrument panel
cluster will ash in the
direction of the turn
or lane change.
As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the
arrows ash more quickly than normal, a signal
bulb may be burned out and other drivers will not
see your turn signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an
accident. If the arrows do not go on at all when you
signal a turn, check for burned-out bulbs and a
blown fuse. SeeInstrument Panel Fuse Block on
page 504andUnderhood Fuse Block on page 507.Turn Signal On Chime
If your turn signal is left on for more than 3/4 of a
mile (1.2 km), a chime will sound at each ash
of the turn signal and the message TURN SIGNAL
ON will also appear in the DIC. SeeDIC
Warnings and Messages on page 226. To turn the
chime and message off, move the turn signal
lever to the off position.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
53(Headlamp High/Low Beam Changer):
To change the headlamps from low to high beam,
push the lever toward the instrument panel. To
return to low-beam headlamps, pull the
multifunction lever toward you. Then release it.
When the high beams
are on, this indicator light
on the instrument panel
cluster will also be on.
179

Flash-to-Pass
This feature lets you use your high-beam
headlamps to signal a driver in front of you that
you want to pass. It works even if your headlamps
are in the automatic position.
To use it, pull the turn signal lever toward you,
then release it.
If your headlamps are in the automatic position or
on low beam, your high-beam headlamps will
turn on. They will stay on as long as you hold the
lever toward you. The high-beam indicator on
the instrument panel cluster will come on. Release
the lever to return to normal operation.
Windshield Wipers
You control the windshield wipers by turning the
band with the wiper symbol on it.
8(Mist):For a single wiping cycle, turn the
band to mist. Hold it there until the wipers
start. Then let go. The wipers will stop after
one wipe. If you want more wipes, hold the
band on mist longer.
6(Delay):You can set the wiper speed for a long
or short delay between wipes. This can be very
useful in light rain or snow. Turn the band to
choose the delay time. The closer to the top of the
lever, the shorter the delay.
6(Low Speed):For steady wiping at low
speed, turn the band away from you to the
rst solid band past the delay settings.
1(High Speed):For high-speed wiping, turn
the band further, to the second solid band past the
delay settings.
9(Off):To stop the wipers, move the band
to off.
Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper
blades before using them. If they are frozen to the
windshield, carefully loosen or thaw them. If
your blades do become worn or damaged, get
new blades or blade inserts.
180

2(Headlamps):Turn the control to this position
to turn on the headlamps, together with the
previously listed lamps and lights.
When the vehicle is turned off and the headlamps
are in AUTO, the headlamps may automatically
remain on for a set time. You can change
this delay time using the DIC. SeeDriver
Information Center (DIC) on page 222.
You can switch your headlamps from low to
high-beam by pushing the turn signal/multifunction
lever toward the instrument panel.
Headlamps on Reminder
If a door is open, a reminder chime will sound
when your headlamps or parking lamps are
manually turned on and your key is out of the
ignition. To turn off the chime, turn the headlamp
switch to off or AUTO and then back on, or
close and re-open the door. In the AUTO mode,
the headlamps turn off once the ignition is in LOCK
or may remain on until the headlamp delay ends
(if enabled in the DIC). See “Exit Lighting”
underDIC Vehicle Customization on page 234.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
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. Fully functional daytime running lamps
are required on all vehicles rst sold in Canada.
The DRL system will come on when the following
conditions are met:
The ignition is on.
The exterior lamps control is in AUTO.
The transmission is not in PARK (P).
The light sensor determines it is daytime.
When the DRL are on, only your DRL lamps will
be on. The taillamps, sidemarker, and other lamps
will not be on. The instrument panel will not be
lit up either.
When it begins to get dark, the automatic
headlamp system will switch from DRL to the
headlamps.
188

When the System Does Not Seem To
Work Properly
The rear vision camera system may not work
properly or display a clear image in the following
situations:
In the dark.
When the sun or the beam of headlights is
shining directly into the camera lens.
If ice, snow, mud, or anything else builds up
on the camera lens. Clean the lens, rinse it
with water, and wipe it with a soft cloth.
If the back of the vehicle is in an accident, the
position and mounting angle of the camera
may change or the camera may be affected.
Be sure to have the camera and its position
and mounting angle checked at your dealer.
Extreme high or low temperatures or extreme
temperature changes can affect the image
displayed.

on whenever you set
your cruise control. See
“Cruise Control”
underTurn
Signal/Multifunction

Highbeam On Light
This light comes on
when the high-beam
headlamps are in use.
SeeHeadlamp High/Low-Beam Changer on
page 179.
Tow/Haul Mode Light
This light is displayed
when the tow/haul mode
has been activated.
For more information, see “Tow/Haul Mode” under
Towing a Trailer on page 374.

No one can see as well at night as in the daytime.
But as we get older these differences increase.
A 50-year-old driver may require at least twice as
much light to see the same thing at night as a
20-year-old.
What you do in the daytime can also affect your
night vision. For example, if you spend the
day in bright sunshine you are wise to wear
sunglasses. Your eyes will have less trouble
adjusting to night. But if you are driving, do not
wear sunglasses at night. They may cut down on
glare from headlamps, but they also make a
lot of things invisible.
You can be temporarily blinded by approaching
headlamps. It can take a second or two, or
even several seconds, for your eyes to re-adjust
to the dark. When you are faced with severe glare,
as from a driver who does not lower the high
beams, or a vehicle with misaimed headlamps,
slow down a little. Avoid staring directly into
the approaching headlamps.Keep the windshield and all the glass on your
vehicle clean — inside and out. Glare at night is
made much worse by dirt on the glass. Even the
inside of the glass can build up a lm caused
by dust. Dirty glass makes lights dazzle and ash
more than clean glass would, making the pupils
of your eyes contract repeatedly.
Remember that the headlamps light up far less
of a roadway when you are in a turn or curve.
Keep your eyes moving; that way, it is easier
to pick out dimly lighted objects. Just as the
headlamps should be checked regularly for proper
aim, so should your eyes be examined regularly.
Some drivers suffer from night blindness — the
inability to see in dim light — and are not even
aware of it.
