Information for these features is on the pages following.
Turn and Lane-Change Signals
An arrow on the instrumentpanel cluster flashes in thedirection of the turn orlane change.
For vehicles with the side blind zone alert system, anarrow in the outside mirror flashes when the turn signalis used. SeeSide Blind Zone Alert (SBZA) onpage 3-43for more information.

Flash-to-Pass
This feature lets you use the high-beam headlamps tosignal the driver in front of you that you want to pass.
The flash-to-pass feature will only work with theheadlamps on. It does not work with Daytime RunningLamps (DRL).
Pull and hold the turn signal lever toward you to use.
If the headlamps are on low beam, pulling the turn signaltowards you will flash the high beams.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper lever is located on the left side ofthe steering column.
Turn the band with the wiper symbol on it to control thewindshield wipers.
8(Mist):For a single wiping cycle, hold it on mist
until the wipers start, then release. The wipers stop afterone wipe. Several wipes, hold the band longer.
6(Delay): Use to set the delay time between wipe
cycles. The wiper speed can be set for a long or shortdelay between wipes. The closer the band is set tothe top of the lever, the shorter the delay.
6(Low Speed):Slow wipes.
1(High Speed):Fast wipes.
9(Off):Turns the wipers off.
Clear ice and snow from the wiper blades before usingthem. If frozen to the windshield, carefully loosen orthaw them. Damaged blades should be replaced.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor.A circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools.
The vehicle has wiper-activated headlamps. After thewindshield wipers have completed eight wipe cycleswithin four minutes, the headlamps automaticallyturn on. SeeWiper Activated Headlamps on page 4-29for more information.
Rainsense™II Wipers
If the vehicle has this feature, the moisture sensor ismounted on the interior of the windshield besidethe rearview mirror and is used to automatically operatethe wipers. This system operates by monitoring theamount of moisture build-up on the windshield. Wipesoccur as needed to clear the windshield dependingon the driving conditions and the sensitivity setting. Inlight rain or snow, fewer wipes will occur. In heavyrain or snow, wipes will occur more frequently.
4-10

The system operates in the delay mode. If the system isleft on for long periods of time, occasional wipes mayoccur without any moisture on the windshield. Thisis normal and indicates that the Rainsense™systemis active.
The Rainsense™system is activated by turning thewiper control band to one of the five sensitivity levelswithin the delay area. The position closest to off isthe lowest sensitivity setting, level one. This allows morerain or snow to collect on the windshield betweenwipes. Turning the wiper band away from you to highersensitivity levels increases the sensitivity of thesystem and frequency of wipes. The highest sensitivitysetting, level five is closest to low. A single wipe willoccur each time you turn the wiper stalk to a highersensitivity level to indicate that the sensitivity level hasbeen increased.
Notice:Going through an automatic car wash withthe wipers on can damage them. Turn the wipersoff when going through an automatic car wash.
The MIST and wash cycle operates as normal and arenot affected by the Rainsense™function. The systemcan be overridden at any time by manually changing thewiper control to low or high speed.
Notice:Do not place stickers or other items on theexterior glass surface directly in front of the rainsensor.
Windshield Washer
{WARNING:
In freezing weather, do not use your washer until
the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking
your vision.
J(Washer Fluid):Press and release this paddle,
located at the top of the turn signal/multifunction lever, tospray washer fluid on the windshield. The wipers willclear the windshield and either stop or return tothe preset speed. For more washer cycles, press andhold the paddle.

IntelliBeam™ Intelligent High-Beam
Headlamp Control System
For vehicles with this feature, be sure to read this entiresection before using it.
IntelliBeam is an enhancement to the vehicle’sheadlamp system. Using a digital light sensor on therearview mirror, this system turns the vehicle’shigh-beam headlamps on and off according tosurrounding traffic conditions.
The IntelliBeam system turns the high-beam headlampson when it is dark enough, there is no other trafficpresent, and the IntelliBeam system is enabled.
Turning On and Enabling IntelliBeam™
Press and release the IntelliBeam button on the insiderear view mirror. The IntelliBeam indicator on themirror turns on to indicate the system is on. Once thesystem has been turned on, it remains on each time thevehicle is started, but the IntelliBeam system must beenabled.
To enable the IntelliBeam system, turn the exterior lampcontrol to AUTO, with the turn signal/multifunctionlever in its neutral position. The High-Beam On Lightappears on the instrument panel cluster when thehigh-beams are on. SeeHighbeam On Light onpage 4-61.
4-26

Wiper Activated Headlamps
This feature activates the headlamps and parking lampsafter the windshield wipers are turned on and havecompleted eight wipe cycles within four minutes.
When the ignition is turned to LOCK/OFF, thewiper-activated headlamps immediately turn off. Thewiper-activated headlamps also turn off if the windshieldwipers are turned off.
Headlamps on Reminder
A warning chime will sound if the exterior lamp controlis left on in either the headlamp or parking lamp positionand the driver’s door is opened with the ignition off.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier forothers to see the front of your vehicle during theday. Fully functional daytime running lamps are requiredon all vehicles first sold in Canada.
The DRL system makes the turn signal lamps come onwhen the following conditions are met:
•It is still daylight and the ignition is on.
•The exterior lamp control is in the off position.
•The transmission is not in P (Park)
(United States only).
•The light sensor is covered or not detecting light.
See “Sensors” underDual Climate Control Systemon page 4-36.
When DRL are on, no other exterior lamps such as theparking lamps, taillamps, etc. will be on when theDRL are being used. The instrument panel will not be litup either.
When automatic lighting is on and it is dark enoughoutside, the turn signal lamps turn off and normallow-beam headlamp operation occurs.
When automatic lighting is on and it is bright enoughoutside, the regular lamps go off, and the DRLtakes over. If the vehicle is started in a dark garage, theautomatic headlamp system comes on immediately.Once you leave the garage, it will take approximatelyone minute for the automatic headlamp system tochange to DRL if there is light outside. During that delay,the instrument panel cluster may not be as bright asusual. Make sure the instrument panel brightness knobis in the full bright position. SeeInstrument PanelBrightness on page 4-31.
Turning on automatic lighting or the headlamps willdeactivate the DRL. If the parking lamps or thefog lamps were turned on instead, the DRL will stilldeactivate.
4-29

To idle the vehicle with the DRL off at night, turn offautomatic lighting and shift the transmission into P (Park).Placing the vehicle in P (Park) disables the DRL. TheDRL will stay off until the vehicle is shifted out of P (Park).
To drive the vehicle with the DRL off, turn off automaticlighting and manually turn on the parking lamps orfog lamps, if the vehicle has them.
The regular headlamp system should be turned onwhen needed.
Fog Lamps
The fog lamps button is on the exterior lamps control tothe left of the steering column.
#(Fog Lamps):Press the exterior lamps button to
turn the fog lamps on or off. A light comes on inthe instrument panel cluster when the fog lamps are inuse. SeeInstrument Panel Cluster on page 4-47.The ignition must be in the ON/RUN position for thefog lamps to work.
The fog lamps will go off when the headlamps arechanged to high-beam.
Some localities have laws that require the headlamps tobe on along with the fog lamps.
Cornering Lamps
The cornering lamps come on when the headlamps orparking lamps are on and you signal a turn with themultifunction lever. They provide more light forcornering.
Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
If the exterior lamp button has been left on, the exteriorlamps will turn off about 10 minutes after the ignitionis turned to LOCK/OFF and a door has been opened.This protects against draining the battery if theheadlamps or parking lamps are accidentally left on.If you need to leave the lamps on for more than10 minutes, use the exterior lamp control to turn thelamps back on after the ignition is turned to LOCK/OFFand any door is opened.
