System Limitations
WARNING
The collision warning system
’s brake
support can only help reduce the
speed at which a collision occurs if
the driver applies the vehicle ’s brakes. The
brake pedal must be pressed just like any
typical braking situation. Due to the nature of radar technology,
there may be certain instances where
vehicles do not provide a collision warning.
These include:
•
Stationary vehicles or vehicles moving
below 6 mph (10 km/h).
• Pedestrians or objects in the roadway.
• Oncoming vehicles in the same lane.
• Severe weather conditions (see
blocked sensor section).
• Debris build-up on the grille near the
headlamps (see blocked sensor
section).
• Small distance to vehicle ahead.
• Steering wheel and pedal movements
are large (very active driving style).
If the front end of the vehicle is hit or
damaged, the radar sensing zone may be
altered causing missed or false collision
warnings. See your authorized dealer to
have your collision warning radar checked
for proper coverage and operation.
DRIVE CONTROL
Selectable Drive Modes
Selectable drive modes delivers a driving
experience through a suite of sophisticated
electronic vehicle systems. These systems
optimize steering, handling and powertrain
response. This provides a single location
to control multiple systems performance
settings. Selectable drive modes consists of the
following systems:
•
Electronically power-assisted steering
adjusts steering effort and feel based
on your selected mode. See Steering
(page 163).
• Electronic stability control and traction
control maintain your vehicle control
in adverse conditions or high
performance driving. See
Stability
Control (page 143).
• Electronic throttle control enhances
the powertrain response to your inputs.
Using Selectable Drive Modes
Selectable drive modes automatically
tailors your vehicle configuration for each
mode selected. To change the drive mode
setting, toggle the mode
button/switch on the instrument
panel under the display. The first press of
the mode button/switch illuminates the
selected mode, subsequent presses will
change the selected mode.
Note: Mode changes are not available when
the vehicle ignition is off or reverse (R) gear
is selected. In gear position drive (D), the
available modes are Normal, Sport+, Track
and Snow/Wet. In gear position sport (S)
Snow/Wet and Normal mode are
unavailable.
Modes:
• Normal – Delivers a balanced
combination of comfort and handling.
This mode provides an engaging drive
experience and a direct connection to
the road without sacrificing any of the
composure demanded from your
vehicle.
• Sport+ – Provides a sportier steering
feel and throttle response. Sport+
mode is ideal for use during more
spirited driving.

Poor wiper quality can be improved by
cleaning the wiper blades and the
windshield. See Cleaning the Windows
and Wiper Blades (page 230).
ADJUSTING THE HEADLAMPS
Vertical Aim Adjustment
The headlamps on your vehicle are
properly aimed at the assembly plant. If
your vehicle has been in an accident, have
the alignment of your headlamps checked
by an authorized dealer.
Headlamp Aiming Target 8 feet (2.4 meters)
A
Center height of lamp to ground
B
25 feet (7.6 meters)
C
Horizontal reference line
D
Vertical Aim Adjustment
1. Park the vehicle directly in front of a wall or screen on a level surface,
approximately 25 feet (7.6 meters)
away. 2. Measure the height from the center of
your headlamp (indicated by a 3.0
millimeter circle on the lens) to the
ground and mark an 8 foot (2.4 meter)
horizontal reference line on the vertical
wall or screen at this height (a piece of
masking tape works well).
Note: To see a clearer light pattern for
adjusting, you may want to block the light
from one headlamp while adjusting the
other.
3. Turn on the low beam headlamps to illuminate the wall or screen and open
the hood. Cover one of the headlamps
so no light hits the wall. 4.
There is a distinct cut-off (change from
light to dark) in the left portion of the
beam pattern. Position the top edge of
this cut-off 2 inches (5 centimeters)
below the horizontal reference line. 223

5. Locate the vertical adjuster on each
headlamp. Use a Phillips #2
screwdriver to turn the adjuster either
clockwise or counterclockwise to
adjust the vertical aim of the
headlamp. The horizontal edge of the
brighter light should touch the
horizontal reference line.
6. Repeat Steps 3 through 7 to adjust the
other headlamp.
7. Close the hood and turn off the lamps.
Horizontal Aim Adjustment
Horizontal aim is not required for this
vehicle and is not adjustable.
CHANGING A BULB
Lamp Assembly Condensation
Exterior lamps have vents to
accommodate normal changes in pressure.
Condensation can be a natural occurrence
of this design. When moist air enters the
lamp assembly through the vents, there is
a possibility that condensation can occur
in cold temperatures. When normal
condensation occurs, a thin film of mist
can form on the interior of the lens. The
mist eventually clears and exits through
the vents during normal operation. Clearing
time may take as long as 48 hours under
dry weather conditions.
Examples of acceptable condensation are:
• Thin mist without streaks, drip marks
or droplets.
• Fine mist that covers less than 50% of
the lens.
Examples of unacceptable moisture are:
• Water puddle inside the lamp.
• Large water droplets, drip marks or
streaks on the interior of the lens. If any of the above conditions of
unacceptable moisture are present,
contact an authorized.
Replacing HID Headlamp Bulbs
Your vehicle has high intensity discharge
lamps. These lamps operate at a high
voltage. Contact an authorized dealer.
Accessing the Direction Indicator
and Fog Lamp Bulbs
1. Rotate the steering wheel to the
opposite side of the bulb needing
replacement. 2. Remove the three wheel liner
fasteners. 3. Locate the most outside fastener
attaching the front fascia to the wheel
liner and remove it.

BULB SPECIFICATION CHART
Replacement bulbs are specified in the
chart below. Headlamp bulbs must be
marked with an authorized "D.O.T." for
North America and an "E" for Europe to
make sure lamp performance, light
brightness and pattern and safe visibility.
The correct bulbs do not damage the lamp
assembly or void the lamp assembly
warranty and provide quality bulb
