Tilt Wheel
A tilt wheel lets you adjust the steering wheel
before you drive. You can raise the steering wheel
to the highest level to give your legs more room
when you enter and exit the vehicle.
The lever that lets you tilt the steering wheel is
located on the left side of the steering column.
To tilt the wheel, hold the
wheel and pull the lever.
Then move the wheel to
a comfortable position
and release the lever to
lock the wheel in place.
Power Tilt Wheel and Telescopic
Steering Column
If your vehicle has this
feature, the power tilt
wheel control is located
on the left side of the
steering column.
To operate the power tilt feature, push the control
up and the steering wheel will tilt up. Push the
control down and the steering wheel will go down.
Push the control forward and the steering wheel
moves toward the front of the vehicle. Push the
control rearward and the steering wheel moves
toward the rear of the vehicle. To set the memory
position, seeDIC Vehicle Customization on
page 259andMemory Seat, Mirrors and Steering
Wheel on page 12.

Turn and Lane-Change Signals
To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up
or down. The lever returns automatically when the
turn is complete. If you momentarily press and
release the lever, the turn signal will ash 3 times.
An arrow on the
instrument panel
cluster and in the
outside rearview
mirror will ash in the
direction of the turn
or lane change.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to
ash to signal a lane change. Hold it there until
the lane change is complete. The lever returns
when it is released.
If the turn signal is left on, a warning chime will
sound and the Driver Information Center (DIC) will
display TURN SIGNAL ON after driving about a
mile to remind you to turn it off. SeeDIC Warnings
and Messages on page 246.Arrows that ash rapidly when signaling for a
turn or lane change may be caused by a burned
out signal bulb. Other drivers will not see the
turn signal.
Replace burned-out bulbs to help avoid possible
accidents. Check the fuse and for burned-out bulbs
if the arrow fails to work when signaling a turn.
SeeRear Underseat Fuse Block on page 455.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
Push forward to change the headlamps from
low beam to high. Pull the lever back and then
release it to change from high beam to low.
This light on the
instrument panel cluster
will be on, indicating
high-beam usage.

Detecting the Vehicle Ahead
The vehicle ahead symbol, located next to the
FCA symbol, will only appear when a vehicle
ahead of you is detected in your path. If this
symbol does not appear, or disappears briey,
FCA will not respond to vehicles you may
see ahead. The symbol may disappear on curves,
highway exit ramps, or hills. Also, when another
vehicle enters the same lane as you, the FCA
system will not detect the vehicle until it is
completely in your driving lane.
{CAUTION:
When the Adaptive Cruise Control radar is
blocked by snow, ice, or dirt, it may not
detect a vehicle ahead. FCA may not
help you avoid a collision under these
conditions. Do not use FCA when the
radar is blocked by snow, ice, or dirt.
Keep your radar clean. See “Cleaning
the System” underAdaptive Cruise
Control on page 179.
{CAUTION:
FCA may not detect and warn soon enough
to stationary or slow-moving vehicles or
other objects ahead of you. You could
crash into an object ahead of you. Do not
rely on FCA when approaching stationary
or slow-moving vehicles or other objects.
Unnecessary Alerts
FCA may occasionally provide alerts that you
consider unnecessary. It could respond to a turning
vehicle ahead of you, guard rails, signs, and other
stationary objects. This is normal operation, your
vehicle does not need service.
Other Messages
There are three messages that may appear
on the Driver Information Center (DIC). They are
CLEAN RADAR, RADAR CRUISE NOT READY
and SERVICE RADAR CRUISE. SeeDIC
Warnings and Messages on page 246.
171

Cleaning the System
The radar can become blocked by snow, ice, or
dirt. If so, you may need to turn off the engine
and clean the lens. See “Cleaning the System”
underAdaptive Cruise Control on page 179.
Flash-to-Pass
This feature lets you use the high-beam
headlamps to signal the driver in front of
you that you want to pass.
The ash-to-pass feature will only work with the
headlamps on. It does not work with Daytime
Running Lamps (DRL).
Pull and hold the turn signal lever toward you
to use.
If the headlamps are on high beam, they will
switch to low beam. To return to high beam,
push the lever away from you.
Windshield Wipers
You control the windshield wipers by turning the
band with the wiper symbol on it.
8(Mist):Turn the band to mist for a single
wiping cycle. Hold it there until the wipers start.
Then let go. The wipers stop after one wipe.
For more wipe cycles, hold the band longer
on mist.
6(Delay):Turn the band to choose the delay time
between wipe cycles. The wiper speed can be set
for a long or short delay between wipes. The closer
the band is set to the top of the lever, the shorter
the delay.
6(Low Speed):Turn the band away from
you to the rst solid band past the delay settings
for steady wiping at low speed.
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.
