Heated Windshield Washer
For vehicles with the heated
windshield washer uid system, it
can be used to help clear ice, snow,
tree sap, or bugs from the
windshield. This feature only works
with the front wiper system.
The button is located to the left

rst wash/wipe cycle, it can take up
to 20 seconds for each of the
remaining cycles. The system turns
off automatically after four wipe
cycles or the button can be pressed

Delayed Headlamps
Delayed headlamps provide a period
of exterior lighting as you leave

feature is activated when the
headlamps are on due to the
automatic headlamps control
feature, and when the ignition is
turned off. The headlamps remain
on until the exterior lamps control is
moved to the parking lamps

Daytime Running Lamps
(DRL)/Automatic
Headlamp System
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can
make it easier for others to see
the front of your vehicle during the
day. Fully functional daytime
running lamps are required on all
vehicles rst sold in Canada.
A light sensor on top of the
instrument panel makes the DRL
work, so do not cover the sensor.
The DRL system’s automatic control
makes the DRL lights come on when
the following conditions are met:
The ignition is in the ON/RUN
position.
The exterior lamps control is
in AUTO.
The engine is running.
Instrument Panel 3-13

The battery can be discharged at
idle if the electrical loads are
very high. This is true for all
vehicles. This is because the
generator (alternator) may not be
spinning fast enough at idle to
produce all the power that is needed
for very high electrical loads.
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,
trailer loads, 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 Driver
Information Center (DIC) message
might be displayed, such as
BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE,
BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW, or LOW
BATTERY. If this message is
displayed, it is recommended that
the driver reduce the electrical loads
as much as possible. SeeDIC
Warnings and Messages on
page 3-48.Battery Run-Down
Protection
This feature helps prevent the
battery from being drained, if the
interior courtesy lamps, reading/map
lamps, visor vanity lamps or trunk
lamp are accidentally left on. If
any of these lamps are left on,
they automatically turn off after
10 minutes, if the ignition is off. The
lamps will not come back on
again until one of the following
occurs:
The ignition is turned on.
The exterior lamps control is
turned off, then on again.
The headlamps will timeout after
10 minutes, if they are manually
turned on before the ignition is off.
Instrument Panel 3-17

the oor outlets. The rear system
oor outlets are located under
the third row seats.
Warning Lights,
Gages, and Indicators
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 the
warning lights and gages could
prevent injury.
Warning lights come on when there
may be or is a problem with one
of the vehicle’s functions. Some
warning lights come on briey when
the engine is started to indicate
they are working.Gages can indicate when there may
be or is a problem with one of the
vehicle’s functions. Often gages and
warning lights work together to
indicate a problem with the vehicle.
When one of the warning lights
comes on and stays on while
driving, or when one of the gages
shows there may be a problem,
check the section that explains what
to do. Follow this manual’s advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be
costly and even dangerous.

Odometer
The speedometer shows the
vehicle’s speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers
per hour (km/h).
The odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven, in
either miles or kilometers.
This vehicle has a tamper-resistant
odometer. If the vehicle needs a
new odometer installed, the new one
will be set to the mileage total of
the old odometer. If this is not
possible, it will be set at zero and a
label must be put on the driver’s
door to show the old mileage
reading when the new odometer
was installed. If the mileage is
unknown, the label should then
indicate “previous mileage
unknown”.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the
engine speed in revolutions per
minute (rpm).

Airbag Readiness Light
This light shows if there is an
electrical problem. The system
check includes the airbag sensor,
the pretensioners, the airbag
modules, the wiring and the crash
sensing and diagnostic module.
For more information on the airbag
system, seeAirbag System on
page 1-45.
This light will come on and stay on
for several seconds when the
vehicle is started. Then the light
should go out.If the airbag readiness light stays on
after the vehicle has been started
or comes on when while driving, the
airbag system may not work
properly. Have the vehicle serviced
right away.{CAUTION
If the airbag readiness light stays
on after the vehicle is started or
comes on while driving, it means
the airbag system might not be
working properly. The airbags in
the vehicle might not inate in a
crash, or they could even inate
without a crash. To help avoid
injury, have the vehicle serviced
right away.
Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger
sensing system. SeePassenger
Sensing System on page 1-52
for important safety information. The
instrument panel has a passenger
airbag status indicator.
When the vehicle is started, the
passenger airbag status indicator will
light ON and OFF, or the symbol for
on and off, for several seconds as a
system check. If you are using

see the system check. Then, after
several more seconds, the status
indicator will light either ON or OFF,
or either the on or off symbol to let
you know the status of the right front
passenger frontal airbag.
If the word ON or the on symbol is
lit on the passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the right front
passenger frontal airbag is enabled
(may inate).
If the word OFF or the off symbol is
lit on the passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the
passenger sensing system has
turned off the right front passenger
frontal airbag.If, after several seconds, both status
indicator lights remain on, or if
there are no lights at all, there may
be a problem with the lights or
the passenger sensing system. See
your dealer/retailer for service.
{CAUTION
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong with
the airbag system. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have
the vehicle serviced right away.
SeeAirbag Readiness Light on
page 3-31for more information,
including important safety
information.
Charging System Light
The charging system light comes on
briey when the ignition is turned on,
but the engine is not running, as a
check to show the light is working. It
should go out when the engine is
started.
If the light stays on, or comes on
while driving, there may be a
problem with the electrical charging
system. Have it checked by your
dealer/retailer. Driving while this light
is on could drain the battery.
When this light comes on, the Driver
Information Center (DIC) will also
display the SERVICE BATTERY
CHARGING SYSTEM message.
