RAIN SENSING WIPERS
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
This feature senses moisture on the
windshield and automatically acti-
vates the wipers for the driver. This
feature is especially useful for road
splash or overspray from the wind-
shield washers of the vehicle ahead.
Rotate the end of the multifunction
lever to one of the five intermittent
wiper sensitivity settings to activate
this feature.
The sensitivity of the system is adjust-
able from the multifunction lever.
Wiper sensitivity position 3 has been
calibrated for best overall wiping sen-
sitivity. If the operator desires more
wiping sensitivity, they may select
sensitivity positions 4 or 5. If the op-
erator desires less wiping sensitivity,
they may select sensitivity positions 2
or 1. Place the multifunction lever in
the OFF position when not using the
system.NOTE:
 The Rain Sensing feature will
not operate when the wiper
speed is in the low or high posi-
tion.
 The Rain Sensing feature may not function properly when ice
or dried saltwater is present on
the windshield.
 Use of products containing wax or silicone may reduce rain sen-
sor performance.
 The Rain Sensing feature can be turned on and off through the
EVIC (for versions/markets,
where provided). Refer to “Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC)/Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Fea-
tures)” in “Understanding Your
Instrument Panel” for further
information. The Rain Sensing system has protec-
tive features for the wiper blades and
arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:

Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit
— The Rain Sensing feature will
not operate when the ignition is
first switched ON, and the vehicle is
stationary, and the outside tem-
perature is below 0°C, unless the
wiper control on the multifunction
lever is moved, or the vehicle speed
becomes greater than 0 km/h, or
the outside temperature rises above
freezing.
 Neutral Wipe Inhibit — The Rain
Sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is ON, and the
transmission shift lever is in the
NEUTRAL position, and the ve-
hicle speed is less than 8 km/h,
unless the wiper control on the mul-
tifunction lever is moved or the
shift lever is moved out of the NEU-
TRAL position.

illuminated. This sequence will con-
tinue upon subsequent vehicle start-
ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is il-
luminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire pres-
sure as intended. TPMS malfunctions
may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of replace-
ment or alternate tires or wheels on
the vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that
the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for
the original equipment tires and
wheels. TPMS pressures and warn-
ing have been established for the
tire size equipped on your vehicle.
Undesirable system operation or
sensor damage may result when us-
ing replacement equipment that is(Continued)
CAUTION!(Continued)
not of the same size, type, and/or
style. Aftermarket wheels can cause
sensor damage. Do not use tire seal-
ant from a can or balance beads if
your vehicle is equipped with a
TPMS, as damage to the sensors
may result.
9. Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) The Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) is part of an on-
board diagnostic system,
called OBD, that monitors engine and
automatic transmission control sys-
tems. The light will illuminate when
the key is in the ON/RUN position,
before engine start. If the bulb does
not come on when turning the key
from OFF to ON/RUN, have the con-
dition checked promptly.
Certain conditions, such as a loose or
missing gas cap, poor fuel quality,
etc., may illuminate the MIL after en-
gine start. The vehicle should be ser-
viced if the light stays on through
several of your typical driving cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will
drive normally and will not require
towing.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the MIL on
could cause damage to the engine
control system. It also could affect
fuel economy and drivability. If the
MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss
will soon occur. Immediate service
is required.WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic con-
verter, as referenced above, can
reach higher temperatures than in
normal operating conditions. This
can cause a fire if you drive slowly
or park over flammable substances
such as dry plants, wood, card-
board, etc. This could result in
death or serious injury to the driver,
occupants or others.

16. Shift Lever Indicator
The Shift Lever Indicator is self-
contained within the instrument clus-
ter. It displays the gear position of the
automatic transmission.
NOTE:
 You must apply the brakes be-fore shifting from PARK.
The highest available transmis-
sion gear is displayed in the
lower right corner of the Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC) whenever the Elec-
tronic Range Select (ERS) feature
is active. Use the +/- selector on
the shift lever to activate ERS.
Refer to “Automatic Transmis-
sion” in “Starting And Operat-
ing” for further information.17. Vehicle Security Light (for
versions/markets, where provided) This light will flash at a fast
rate for approximately 15
seconds, when the vehicle
security alarm is arming,
and then will flash slowly until the
vehicle is disarmed. 18. Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various
brake functions, including
brake fluid level and parking brake
application. If the brake light turns on
it may indicate that the parking brake
is applied, that the brake fluid level is
low, or that there is a problem with the
anti-lock brake system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the park-
ing brake has been disengaged, and
the fluid level is at the full mark on the
master cylinder reservoir, it indicates
a possible brake hydraulic system
malfunction or that a problem with
the Brake Booster has been detected
by the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
/ Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system. In this case, the light will re-
main 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 dur-
ing each stop.
The dual brake system provides a re-
serve 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.
NOTE: The light may flash mo-
mentarily during sharp cornering
maneuvers, which change fluid
level conditions. The vehicle
should have service performed,
and the brake fluid level checked.
If brake failure is indicated, immedi-
ate repair is necessary.
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.
