Deactivating and Activating the Belt-Minder® Feature (If Equipped)
WARNING:While the design allows you to deactivate your
Belt-Minder®, this system is designed to improve your chances of
being safely belted and surviving an accident. We recommend you leave
the Belt-Minder® system activated for yourself and others who may use
the vehicle. To reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate or activate
the Belt-Minder® feature while driving the vehicle.
Note:The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder® are deactivated and
activated independently. When deactivating or activating one seating
position, do not buckle the other position as this will terminate the
process.
Read Steps1-4thoroughly before proceeding with the deactivation
and activation programming procedure.
Note:The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder® features must be
disabled and enabled separately. Both cannot be disabled and enabled
during the same key cycle.
The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder® features can be deactivated
or activated by performing the following procedure:
Before following the procedure, make sure that:
•the parking brake is set.
•the transmission selector lever is in positionP(automatic
transmission) orN(manual transmission).
•the ignition is off.
•the driver and front passenger safety belts are unbuckled.
1. Turn the ignition on. DO NOT START THE ENGINE.
2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off (about one minute).
•Step 3 must be completed within 30 seconds after the safety belt
warning light turns off.
3. For the seating position being disabled, buckle then unbuckle the
safety belt three times at a moderate speed, ending in the unbuckled
state.
•After Step 3, the safety belt warning light will be turned on for three
seconds.
4. Within about seven seconds of the light turning off, buckle then
unbuckle the safety belt.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The remote control allows you to:
•remotely lock or unlock the vehicle doors
•arm and disarm the anti-theft system
•remotely open the luggage compartment
•unlock the doors without actively using a key or remote control
(intelligent access only).
GENERAL INFORMATION ON RADIO FREQUENCIES
This device control complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and with
Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note:Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment. The termICbefore the radio certification number only
signifies that Industry Canada technical specification were met.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 33 feet
(10 meters). A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions
•nearby radio towers
•structures around the vehicle
•other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
The radio frequency used by your remote control can also be used by
other short distance radio transmissions (e.g. amateur radios, medical
equipment, wireless headphones, remote controls and alarm systems). If
the frequencies are jammed, you will not be able to use your remote
control. You can lock and unlock the doors with the key.
Note:Make sure your vehicle is locked before leaving it unattended.
Note:If you are in range, the remote control will operate if you press
any button unintentionally.

HEADLAMP EXIT DELAY
After you switch the ignition off, you can switch the headlamps on by
pulling the direction indicator lever toward you. You will hear a short
tone. The headlamps will switch off automatically after three minutes
with any door open or 30 seconds after the last door has been closed.
You can cancel this feature by pulling the direction indicator toward you
again or switching the ignition on.
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:Always remember to switch your headlamps on in
low light situations or during inclement weather. The system does
not activate the tail lamps and may not provide adequate lighting
during these conditions. Failure to activate your headlamps under these
conditions may result in a collision.
The system switches the headlamps on in daylight conditions.
To switch the system on:
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Switch the lighting control to the off or parking lamp position.
3. Make sure the transmission selector lever is not in position P.
DIRECTION INDICATORS
Push the lever up or down to use
the direction indicators.
Note:When changing lanes, the turn signal indicator can be
programmed to flash either one or three times when the stalk is tapped.
SeeMultifunction displayin theInstrument clustersection for more
information.

Low Fuel Level
It will illuminate when the fuel level is low or near empty.
Refuel as soon as possible.
Low Tire Pressure Warning
It illuminates when your tire pressure is low. If the lamp
remains on with the engine running or when driving, check
your tire pressure as soon as possible.
The lamp also illuminates momentarily when you switch the ignition on
to confirm the lamp is functional. If it does not illuminate when you
switch the ignition on, or begins to flash at any time, have the system
checked by your authorized dealer.
Oil Change Reminder
It will illuminate when the engine oil life has expired. Refer to
Oil life monitoring system reset later in this chapter.
Overdrive Cancel and Grade Assist (If Equipped)
It will illuminate when you turn off the overdrive function of
the transmission and switch on the grade assist function.
Powertrain Malfunction
Displays when the engine has defaulted to a limp-home
operation or when a transmission problem has been detected
and shifting may be restricted. If the light remains on, have the
system serviced immediately by your authorized dealer.

Service Engine Soon
If the service engine soon indicator light stays illuminated after
the engine is started, it indicates that the On Board Diagnostics
system (OBD) has detected a malfunction of the vehicle
emissions control system. Refer toOn board diagnostics (OBD)in the
Fuel and Refuelingchapter for more information about having your
vehicle serviced.
If the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring which could damage
your catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy
acceleration and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced
immediately.
Note:Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic converter or other vehicle components.
The service engine soon indicator light illuminates when the ignition is
first turned on prior to engine start to check the bulb and to indicate
whether the vehicle is ready for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing.
Normally, the service engine soon light will stay on until the engine is
cranked, then turn itself off if no malfunctions are present. However, if
after 15 seconds the service engine soon light blinks eight times, it
means that the vehicle is not ready for I/M testing. SeeReadiness for
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testingin theFuel and Refueling
chapter.
Shift Indicator (If Equipped)
It will illuminate when the manual transmission should be
shifted to a higher gear, to maximize fuel economy.
Stability Control System
It will flash when the system is active. It will illuminate when
you switch the ignition on to confirm it is functional. If it
remains illuminated or does not illuminate when you switch the
ignition on, this indicates a malfunction. During a malfunction the system
will switch off. Have the system checked by your authorized dealer.
Stability Control System Off
It will illuminate when you switch off the system. It will go out
when you switch the system back on or when you switch the
ignition off.
