Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control will work
on hills depends upon the vehicle
speed, load, and the steepness
of the hills. When going up steep
hills, you might have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain the
vehicle speed. When going downhill,
you might have to brake or shift
to a lower gear to keep the vehicle
speed down. When the brakes
are applied the cruise control
is disengaged.
Ending Cruise Control
There are three ways to end cruise
control:
Step lightly on the brake pedal.
Press the[button.
Press theTbutton.
Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed memory
is erased when the cruise control or
the ignition is turned off.

Instrument Panel Lights
#(Fog Lamps):Push the fog
lamps control in to turn on the
fog lamps.
SeeFog Lamps on page 3-14.
Delayed Headlamps
Delayed headlamps provide a period
of exterior lighting as you leave
the area around your vehicle. This
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
position or until the pre-selected
delayed headlamp lighting period
has ended.
If the ignition is turned off with the
headlamps switch in the parking
lamps or headlamps position,
the delayed headlamps cycle will
not occur.
To disable the delayed headlamps
feature or change the time of
delay, seeDIC Vehicle
Customization on page 3-57.
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
Page 132 of 412

When the DRL are on, only the DRL
lights will be on. The headlamps,
taillamps, sidemarker, and other
lamps will not be on. The instrument
panel and cluster will also not be lit.
When it is dark enough outside, the
DRL lights will turn off and the
headlamps and parking lamps will
turn on. The other lamps that
come on with the headlamps will
also come on.
When it is bright enough outside,
the headlamps will go off and
the DRL will come on.
The regular headlamp system
should be turned on when it is
needed.Adaptive Forward
Lighting System
Vehicles with the Adaptive Forward
Lighting System (AFS) have
headlamps that swivel to the left or
right when making a turn to
provide better lighting. To enable
AFS, set the exterior lamp switch to
the AUTO position. Move the
switch out of the AUTO position to
turn off the system. SeeExterior
Lamps on page 3-12.
AFS operates when the vehicle
speed is greater than 2 mph
(3 km/h). AFS does not operate
when the transmission is in
R (Reverse). AFS is not immediately
operable after starting the vehicle;
driving a short distance is required
to calibrate the AFS.
Fog Lamps
Use the fog lamps for better vision
in foggy or misty conditions.
The fog lamps button is located on
the exterior lamps control to the
left of the steering column.
#(Fog Lamps):Press the exterior
lamps button to turn the fog lamps
on or off. A light comes on in
the instrument panel cluster when
the fog lamps are in use. The
ignition must be on for the fog lamps
to work.
When the headlamps are changed
to high-beam, the fog lamps will
turn off. The fog lamps come back
on again when the high-beam
headlamps are turned off.
Some localities have laws that
require the headlamps to be
on along with the fog lamps.

and warmer air to the oor outlets.
6(Floor):Air is directed to
the oor outlets, with some of the
air directed to the windshield,
side window, and second row oor
outlets. In this mode, the system
uses outside air.
-(Defog):This mode clears the
windows of fog or moisture. Air
is directed to the windshield, oor
outlets, and side window vents.
When this mode is selected,
the system turns off recirculation
and runs the air conditioning
compressor unless the outside

that the passenger climate control
system cannot be activated. If the
passenger temperature buttons are
adjusted while in defrost mode, the
driver temperature indicator will
change. The passenger temperature
will not be displayed.
@(Recirculation):Press to turn
the recirculation mode on or off.
An indicator light comes on
when recirculation is on. When the
engine is turned off, the recirculation
mode automatically turns off and
must be re-selected when the
engine is turned on again.
This mode recirculates and helps to
quickly cool the air inside the
vehicle. It can be used to prevent
outside air and odors from entering
the vehicle.
The recirculation mode cannot be
used with oor, defog, or defrosting
modes. If recirculation is selected
in these modes, the indicator ashes
three times and turns off. The air
conditioning compressor also comeson when this mode is activated.
While in recirculation mode
the windows can fog when the
weather is cold and damp. To clear
the fog, select either the defog
or defrost mode and increase the
fan speed.Air Conditioning
#(Air Conditioning):Press to
turn the air conditioning (A/C)
on and off. An indicator light comes

#is pressed the
indicator ashes three times
and turns off to show that the
A/C mode is not available. If the
A/C is on and the outside
temperature drops below a
temperature which is too cool for air
conditioning to be effective, the
A/C indicator turns off to show that
the A/C mode has been canceled.On hot days, open the windows
brie y to let hot inside air escape.
This helps reduce the time it
takes for the interior of the vehicle
to cool down.
The air conditioning system removes
moisture from the air, so a small
amount of water might drip under the
vehicle while idling or after turning off
the engine. This is normal.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a
warming grid to remove fog from the
rear window.
<(Rear Window Defogger):

defogger on or off. The rear window
defogger stays on for about
10 minutes, before turning off. The
defogger also turns off when the
engine is turned off. Do not drive
the vehicle until all the windows
are clear.
