To Close
•With the sunroof in the full open position, pull and hold the power sunroof switch for
approximately one second.
NOTE:
During Express close any movement of the sunroof switch will stop the sunroof.
Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressure on the ears or a
helicopter-type sound in the ears.Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the win-
dows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open positions.This
is a normal occurrence and can be minimized.If the buffeting occurs with the rear win-
dows open, open the front and rear windows together to minimize the buffeting.If the
buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the buf-
feting or open any window.
Power Sun Blind
•Pull the power sun blind switch and the blind will move towards the rear part of the
car, until it is fully open.
With the blind fully open pull the power sun blind switch and the blind will move to-
wards the front part of the car, until it is fully closed.
NOTE:
During the automatic opening and closing stages, if the power sun blind switch is pulled
again it will stop the blind movement.
EURO TWIN CLUTCH SIX-SPEED TRANSMISSION
•This vehicle may be equipped with a fuel efficient Euro Twin Clutch Six Speed Transmis-
sion.This transmission offers a sportier driving experience with faster AutoStick shifting.
•During low-speed driving conditions in first gear, vehicle momentum changes may feel
exaggerated in response to changes in accelerator pedal position.This behavior is nor-
mal and is similar to vehicles equipped with a manual transmission.
NOTE:
•Very aggressive driving may result in some clutch odor similar to a manual transmission.
An active warning message will display in the Instrument Cluster if cool down actions
are needed.
•The first few shifts on a new vehicle may be somewhat abrupt.This is a normal condi-
tion, and precision shifts will develop within a few hundred miles (kilometers).
•At low speeds you may hear mechanical noises similar to a manual transmission as the
transmission changes gears.These noises are normal and will not damage the transmission.
•Before and after the engine is started, you may hear a hydraulic pump for a short pe-
riod of time.This noise is normal and will not damage the transmission.

WARNING!
•Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the vehicle when the fuel door is
open or the tank is being filled.
•Never add fuel when the engine is running.This is in violation of most state and
federal fire regulations and may cause the “Malfunction Indicator Light” to turn on.
•A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a portable container that is inside of a
vehicle.You could be burned.Always place fuel containers on the ground while
filling.
ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
This system enhances directional control and stability of the vehicle under various driving
conditions.
ESC uses sensors in the vehicle to determine the vehicle path intended by the driver and
compares it to the actual path of the vehicle.When the actual path does not match the
intended path, ESC applies the brake of the appropriate wheel to assist in counteracting
the oversteer or understeer condition.
ESC Operating Modes
The ESC system has two available operating modes:
Full On
This is the normal operating mode for ESC.Whenever the vehicle is started the system
will be in this mode.This mode should be used for most driving situations.ESC should
only be turned to “Partial Off ” for specific reasons as noted.

Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system.In this case, the
light will remain on until the condition has been corrected.If the problem is related to
the brake booster, the ABS pump will run when applying the brake, and a brake pedal
pulsation may be felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capacity in the event of a failure to a
portion of the hydraulic system.A leak in either half of the dual brake system is indicated
by the Brake Warning Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level in the master
cylinder has dropped below a specified level.The light will remain on until the cause is
corrected.
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) are also equipped with Elec-
tronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD).In the event of an EBD failure, the Brake Warning
Light will turn on along with the ABS Light.Immediate repair to the ABS system is re-
quired.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked by turning the ignition switch from
the OFF position to the ON/RUN position.The light should illuminate for approximately
two seconds.The light should then turn off unless the parking brake is applied or a brake
fault is detected.If the light does not illuminate, have the light inspected by an authorized
dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking brake is applied with the ignition switch in
the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:
This light shows only that the parking brake is applied.It does not show the degree of
brake application.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous.Part of the brake system
may have failed.It will take longer to stop the vehicle.You could have a collision.Have
the vehicle checked immediately.
- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor fuel quality, etc., may illumi-
nate the MIL after engine start.The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on
through several typical driving cycles.In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and
not require towing.
If the MIL flashes when the engine is running, serious conditions may exist that could lead
to immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage.We recommend you
do not operate the vehicle.Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
