Washer Operation
• Rotate the center portion of the lever past the second detent to activate the rear
washer.
High Beam Operation
• Push the lever forward to activate the high beams. Pull the lever toward you for
flash to pass.
NOTE:For safe driving, turn off high beams when oncoming traffic is present to
prevent headlight glare and as a courtesy to other motorists.
AUTO DIMMING MIRRORS
• The rearview and driver side exterior mirror automatically adjusts for headlight
glare from vehicles behind you.
• You can turn the feature on or off by pressing the button at the base of the
rearview mirror. A light next to the button will illuminate to indicate when the
dimming feature is activated.
SPEED CONTROL
• The speed control switches are located
on the steering wheel.
NOTE:The MODE button and DISTANCE
SETTING button are only available on
vehicles equipped with Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC).
Cruise ON/OFF
• Push the ON/OFF button to activate the Speed Control.
• CRUISE READY
will appear on the instrument cluster to indicate the Speed
Control is on.
• Push the ON/OFF button a second time to turn the system off.
Set
• With the Speed Control on, push and release the SET – button to set a desired
speed.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
26

Accel/Decel
• Once a speed is set, pushing the RES + button once or the SET – button once will
increase or decrease the set speed approximately 1 mph (2 km/h).
Resume
• To resume a previously selected set speed in memory, push the RES + button and
release.
Cancel
• Push the CANCEL button, or apply the brakes to cancel the set speed and
maintain the set speed memory.
• Push the ON/OFF button to turn the system off and erase the set speed memory.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
• If your vehicle is equipped with adaptive cruise control the controls operate exactly
the same as the standard cruise control with one difference. You can set a
specified distance you would like to maintain between you and the vehicle in front
of you.
• If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply limited braking or
acceleration automatically to maintain a preset following distance, while matching
the speed of the vehicle ahead.
• If the sensor does not detect a vehicle directly ahead of you, it functions like a
standard cruise control system, maintaining the speed you set.
Accel/Decel (ACC Only)
• Once a speed is set, pushing the RES + button once or the SET – button once will
increase or decrease the set speed approximately 1 mph (1 km/h).
• Push and hold the RES + button to accelerate in 5mph (10 km/h) increments or
push and hold the SET – button to decelerate in 5mph (10 km/h) increments;
release the button to save the new set speed.
Distance Setting (ACC Only)
• To set or change the distance setting, press the Distance button and release. Each
time the button is pressed, the distance setting adjusts between long (3), medium
(2), and short (1). The distance setting will default to the last set mode the next
time the vehicle is restarted and the ACC system is turned on.
• The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting
between 3 (long), 2 (medium), and 1 (short). Using this distance setting and the
vehicle speed, ACC calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead. This
distance setting displays in the EVIC.
Mode (ACC Only)
• If desired, the Adaptive Cruise Control mode can be turned off and the system can
be operated as a standard (fixed speed) Cruise Control. When in the standard
(fixed speed) Cruise Control mode the distance setting feature will be disabled and
the system will maintain the speed you set.

• To change modes, press the MODE button when the system is in either the OFF,
READY, or SET position. Cruise Off will be displayed if the system was in ACC
READY, ACC SET or the ACC OFF position. To switch back to Adaptive Cruise
Control mode, press the MODE button a second time.
• Each press of the MODE button will be followed by an audible chime.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
Forward Collision Warning
• Forward Collision Warning (FCW) warns the driver of a potential collision with the
vehicle in front of you and prompts the driver to take action in order to avoid the
collision. A warning message (both audible and visual) will be displayed on the
EVIC.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
WARNING!
• Leaving the Electronic or Adaptive Speed Control system on when not in use
is dangerous. You could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster
than you want. You could lose control and have a collision. Always leave the
Electronic or Adaptive Speed Control system off when you are not using it.
• Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system cannot
maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions,
and you could lose control. A collision could be the result. Do not use
Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery.
• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience system. It is not a substitute
for active driving involvement. Pay attention to road, traffic, and weather
conditions, vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle ahead, and brake operation
to ensure safe operation of the vehicle under all road conditions. Your
attention is always required while driving to maintain safe control of your
vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings can result in a collision or serious
personal injury.
The ACC system:
• Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming vehicles, and stationary objects (i.e.,
a stopped vehicle in a traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).
• Cannot take street, traffic, and weather conditions into account, and may be
limited upon adverse sight distance conditions.
• Does not predict the lane curvature or the movement of preceding vehicles
and will not compensate for such changes.
• Does not always fully recognize complex driving conditions, which can result
in wrong or missing distance warnings.
• Can only apply a maximum of 25% of the vehicle’s braking capability, and
will not bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
You should switch off the ACC system:

ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER
(EVIC)
• The EVIC features a driver interactive
display that is located in the
instrument cluster. Pressing the
controls on the left side of the steering
wheel allows the driver to select
vehicle information and Personal
Settings. For additional information,
refer to Programmable Features in this
guide.
• Press and release the UP
button
to scroll upward through the main
menus (Fuel Economy, Vehicle Info,
Tire PSI, Cruise, Messages, Units,
System Setup) and sub menus.
• Press and release the DOWN
button to scroll downward through the main
menus and sub menus.
• Press and release the SELECT
button for access to main menus, sub menus
or to select a personal setting in the setup menu.
• Press the BACK button to scroll back to a previous menu or sub menu.
NOTE:Refer to the Driver Cockpit image in Controls At A Glance to see EVIC Display
and EVIC Controls location.
Compass Calibration
• This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the need to set the compass
manually. When the vehicle is new, the compass may appear erratic and the EVIC
will display “CAL” until the compass is calibrated.
• You may also calibrate the compass manually by selecting Setup (Customer-
Programmable Features) in the EVIC, then select Compass Variance and then enter
the correct variance. Next, select Calibrate Compass in the Setup menu to start the
calibration process. The “CAL” indicator will be displayed in the EVIC. Complete
one or more 360 degree turns (in an area free from large metal or metallic objects)
until the “CAL” message displayed in the EVIC turns off. The compass will now
function normally.
ECO
• The ECO message will appear in your EVIC display whenever you are driving in a
fuel efficient manner.
• This feature allows you to monitor when you are driving in a fuel efficient manner,
and it can be used to modify driving habits in order to increase fuel economy.
