Tire Pressure Light
For vehicles with the Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS), this light comes on briefly
when the engine is started. It provides
information about tire pressures and
the TPMS.
When the Light Is On Steady
This indicates that one or more of the tires
are significantly underinflated.
A Driver Information Center (DIC) tire
pressure message may also display. Stop as
soon as possible, and inflate the tires to the
pressure value shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. SeeTire Pressure
0 278. When the Light Flashes First and Then Is On
Steady
If the light flashes for about a minute and
then stays on, there may be a problem with
the TPMS. If the problem is not corrected,
the light will come on at every ignition
cycle. See
Tire Pressure Monitor Operation
0 281.Engine Oil Pressure Light
Caution
Lack of proper engine oil maintenance
can damage the engine. Driving with the
engine oil low can also damage the
engine. The repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Check the oil
level as soon as possible. Add oil if
required, but if the oil level is within the
operating range and the oil pressure is
still low, have the vehicle serviced.
Always follow the maintenance schedule
for changing engine oil.
This light should come on briefly as the
engine is started. If it does not come on,
have the vehicle serviced by your dealer.
If the light comes on and stays on, it means
that oil is not flowing through the engine
properly. The vehicle could be low on oil
and might have some other system
problem. See your dealer.
Low Fuel Warning Light
This light is near the fuel gauge and comes
on briefly when the ignition is turned on as
a check to show it is working.

Flash-to-Pass
The flash-to-pass feature works with the low
beams or Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) on
or off.
To flash the high beams, pull the turn signal
lever all the way toward you, then
release it.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
DRL can make it easier for others to see the
front of your vehicle during the day. DRL are
required on all vehicles first sold in Canada.
A light sensor on top of the instrument
panel makes the DRL work, so be sure it is
not covered.
The dedicated DRL will come on when all of
the following conditions are met:
.The ignition is on.
.The exterior lamps control is in AUTO,
or has been briefly turned to
Pto turn
the automatic light control on again.
.The light sensor determines it is daytime.
.The transmission is not in P (Park).
When the DRL are on, the headlamps,
taillamps, sidemarker lamps, instrument
panel lights, and other lamps will not be on. The headlamps automatically change from
DRL to the regular headlamps depending on
the darkness of the surroundings. 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.
To turn the DRL off or on again, turn the
exterior lamps control to
Pand then
release. For vehicles first sold in Canada, the
DRL can only be turned off when the vehicle
is parked.
The regular headlamp system should be
turned on when needed.
Automatic Headlamp System
When it is dark enough outside and the
headlamp switch is in AUTO, the automatic
headlamp system will turn on the
headlamps at the normal brightness along
with other lamps such as the taillamps,
sidemarker lamps, parking lamps, license
plate lamps, and the instrument panel
lights. The radio lights will also be dim.
To turn off the automatic headlamp system,
turn the exterior lamps switch to the
P
position and then release. For vehicles first sold in Canada, the transmission must be in
P (Park), before the automatic headlamp
system can be turned off.
The vehicle has a light sensor on the top of
the instrument panel. Do not cover this
sensor, otherwise the system will come on
whenever the ignition is on.
The system may also turn on the headlamps
when driving through a parking garage,
heavy overcast weather, or a tunnel. This is
normal.
There is a delay in the transition between
the daytime and nighttime operation of the
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) and the
automatic headlamp system so that driving
under bridges or bright overhead street
lights does not affect the system. The DRL
and automatic headlamp system will only

Lighting Features
Entry Lighting
Some exterior lamps and interior lamps turn
on briefly at night, or in areas with limited
lighting, when
Kis pressed on the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. After about
30 seconds the exterior lamps turn off.
Entry lighting can be disabled manually by
turning the ignition on or to ACC/
ACCESSORY, or by pressing
Qon the RKE
transmitter. When any door is opened or
remote unlock pressed, all interior lights
turn on and then interior lamps dim to off
after 20 seconds.
The entry lighting feature for exterior
lighting can be changed. See “Vehicle
Locator Lights” underVehicle Personalization
0 105.
Exit Lighting
Some exterior lamps come on at night or in
areas with limited lighting when the driver
door is opened after the ignition is
turned off.
The interior lamps come on after the
ignition is turned off or any door is opened. The exterior and interior lamps remain on
after the door is closed for a set amount of
time then automatically turn off.
Exit lighting for exterior lights can be
changed. See
Vehicle Personalization 0105.
Theater Dimming
This feature allows for a three to five
second fade out of the interior lamps
instead of having them turn off
immediately.
Battery Load Management
The vehicle has Electric Power Management
(EPM) that estimates the battery's
temperature and state of charge. It then
adjusts the voltage for best performance
and extended life of the battery.
When the battery's state of charge is low,
the voltage is raised slightly to quickly bring
the charge back up. When the state of
charge is high, the voltage is lowered
slightly to prevent overcharging. If the
vehicle has a voltmeter gauge or a voltage
display on the Driver Information Center
(DIC), you may see the voltage move up or
down. This is normal. If there is a problem,
an alert will be displayed. 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 of the power
needed for very high electrical loads.
A high electrical load occurs when several of
the following are on, such as: headlamps,
high beams, 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 DIC message might be
displayed and it is recommended that the
driver reduce the electrical loads as much as
possible.

Battery Power Protection
This feature shuts off the interior lamps if
they are left on for more than 10 minutes
when the ignition is off. This helps to
prevent the battery from running down.
Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
The exterior lamps turn off about 10 minutes
after the ignition is turned off, if the parking
lamps or headlamps have been manually
left on. This protects against draining the
battery. To restart the 10-minute timer, turn
the exterior lamp control to the off position
and then back to the parking lamp or
headlamp position.
To keep the lamps on for more than
10 minutes, the ignition must be on or in
ACC/ACCESSORY.
