Daytime Running Lamps / Automatic
Headlamp Control
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier
for others to
see the front of your vehicle during the
day. DRL can be helpful in
many different dnving
conditions, but they can be especially helpful in the
short periods after dawn and before sunset.
A light sensor on top of the instrument panel makes
the DRL work,
so be sure it isn’t covered.
The DRL system will make your high-beam headlamps
come on at a reduced brightness when:
The ignition is on,
The headlamp switch is off and
The parking brake is released.
97LUMWCARL0001 When
the DRL
are on, only your reduced intensity
high-beam headlamps will be on. The taillamps,
sidemarker and other lamps won’t be on. Your
instrument panel won’t be
lit up either.
When it’s dark enough outside, your DRL will turn off
and your low-beam headlamps will turn on. The other
lamps that come on with your headlamps will also
come on.
When it’s bright enough outside, the low-beam
headlamps will go out and DRL turns on your
high-beam headlamps at reduced intensity.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, set the parking
brake while the ignition is in
OFF or LOCK. Then start
your vehicle. The DRL will stay off until you release
the parking brake.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need it.

This section tells you how to adjust the seats and
explains reclining seatbacks, folding rear seats and
head restraints.
2-Way Manual Front Seat
I
You can lose control of the vehicle if you try to
adjust a manual driver’s seat while the vehicle
is
moving. The sudden movement could startle and
confuse you, or make you push a pedal when you
don’t want to. Adjust the driver’s seat only when
the vehicle is not moving.
Lift the bar under the front of the seat to unlock it. Slide
the seat to where you want it and release the
bar. Try to
move the seat with your body to be sure the seat is
locked into place.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Driver's 4-Way Manual Seat (Option)
The driver's seat may have a bar and a handle under the
Front edge of the seat. Lift the
bar to unlock the seat and
slide it forward and backward.
i
~
Lift the handle to tilt the seat up or down.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Driver’s Side Power Seat (Option)
FRONT (A): Raise the front of the seat by holding the
switch up. Hold the switch down to lower the front of
the seat.
CENTER (B): Move the seat forward or backward by
holding the control to the front or to the back. Raise or
lower the seat by holding the control up or down.
REAR (C): Raise the rear of the seat by holding the
switch up. Hold the switch down to lower the rear of
the seat.
Reclining Front Seatbacks
Lift the lever to release the seatback, then move the
seatback to where
you want it. Release the lever to
lock the seatback into place.
Pull up on the lever
without pushing
on the seatback and the seatback will
move forward.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Head Restraints
Slide the head restraint up or down so that the top of the
restraint is closest to the top
of your ears. This position
reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash.
Seatback Latches
The front seat folds forward
to let people get into the
back seat. Your seatback
will move back and forth
freely, unless you come to a
sudden stop. Then it will
lock into place.
If your vehicle is parked facing down a fairly steep hill,
the seatback may not fold without some help from you.
To fold the locked seatback forward, push the seatback
toward the rear and lift this latch. Then the seatback will
fold forward. The latch must be down for the seat to
work properly.
Split Folding Rear Seat
Pull forward on the seat tab latch to fold the seat cushion
down. This feature allows you direct access to the trunk.
To return the seat to its original position, push it back up
and make sure it latches.
