Parental control for the DVD system
Your family entertainment system (FES) allows you to have control over
the rear seat controls in a few different ways. The DVD system is
automatically activated when the vehicle ignition is on, which allows the
rear seat passengers to use the DVD system.
There are two levels of control of the FES buttons. The states are FULL
(enabled), or LOCKED (disabled). To change the level of control, press
the memory preset controls 3 and 5 simultaneously on the front audio
controls. The control level will cycle each time the buttons are pressed
simultaneously. The three states are described as:
FULL(enabled): The FES has control over the primary (speaker) and
secondary (headphone) audio sources.
LOCKED(disabled): The FES buttons are locked and all FES button
presses are ignored by the radio and the FES except for load.
When the DVD system is ON, you can then press the memory preset
controls 2 and 4 simultaneously to toggle between Single Play and Dual
Play. In Single Play mode, all speakers listen to the same media. In Dual
Play mode, rear seat passengers can use the infrared wireless, or wired
(not included) headphones to listen to a different playing media than the
front seat passengers.

REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER
R
The rear defroster control is located on the climate control panel and
works to clear the rear window of fog and thin ice.
The ignition must be on to operate the rear window defroster.
The rear defroster turns off automatically after 10 minutes or when the
ignition is turned off. To manually turn off the defroster before
10 minutes have passed, press the control again.
Do not use razor blades or other sharp objects to clean the inside
of the rear window or to remove decals from the inside of the
rear window. This may cause damage to the heated grid lines and
will not be covered by your warranty.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air filter, located behind the glove
box. The particulate air filtration system is designed to reduce the
concentration of airborne particles such as dust, spores and pollen in the
air being supplied to the interior of the vehicle. This system provides the
following benefits:
•Improves driving comfort by reducing particle concentration.
•Improves the interior compartment cleanliness.
•Protects the climate control components from particle deposits.
Note:A cabin air filter must be installed at all times to prevent foreign
objects from entering the system. Running the system without a filter in
place could result in degradation or damage to the system.
For replacement intervals, refer to theScheduled Maintenancechapter.
For more information regarding your filter, see your authorized dealer.

Autolamp control
The autolamp system provides light
sensitive automatic on/off control of
the exterior lights normally
controlled by the headlamp control.
•To turn autolamps on, rotate the
control clockwise to
.
•To turn autolamps off, rotate the
control counterclockwise to
.
The autolamp system also keeps the
lights on for a predetermined
amount of time after the ignition switch is turned to off. You can change
the amount of time the lamps stay on by using the programming
procedure that follows:
Note:If the vehicle is equipped with autolamps it will have the
headlamps on with windshield wipersfeature. If the windshield wipers
are turned on for a brief period of time, the exterior lamps will turn on
with the headlamp control in the Autolamp position.
Autolamps - programmable exit delay
Programmable exit delay allows the length of the autolamp exit delay to
be changed.
To program the auto lamp exit time delay:
1. Start with the ignition off and the headlamp control in the autolamp
position.
2. Turn the headlamp control to off.
3. Turn the ignition on and then back to off.
4. Turn the headlamp control to the autolamp position. The headlamps
will turn on.
5. Wait the desired amount of time for the exit delay you want (up to
three minutes), then turn the headlamps off.

Deactivating high beams
The automatic high beams will deactivate if any of the following events
occur:
•An approaching vehicle’s headlights or a preceding vehicle’s tail lamps
are detected.
•The headlamp control is moved out of the autolamps position.
•The vehicle speed falls below 27 mph (43 km/h).
•The ambient light level is high enough that high beams are not
needed.
•Severe rain, snow or fog is detected.
•The camera is blocked.
Note:Activating the multi-function lever will put the headlamps in
manual high beam mode (constant or flash-to-pass) until the lever is
returned to the neutral position. To manually override the auto high
beam and go to low beam, the headlamp control must be taken out of
the
(autolamp) position. For severe fog on freeways, or severe fog
in low traffic situations, use of fog lamps is recommended.
Setting auto high beam sensitivity
The automatic high beam system has two sensitivity settings. The default
setting is near. If you would like the high beams to turn off when traffic
is further away, the sensitivity setting can be changed to far. The
procedure is as follows:
Preconditions:
•Vehicle is at a stop.
•Ignition is in the on position.
•The headlamp control is in the
position.
•High-beams are off.
Programming Sequence:
1. Turn the headlamp control from
(on) to(autolamp) three
times within two seconds, ending in
(on).
2. Cycle flash-to-pass three times using the multi-function lever.

3. The high beams will flash momentarily to confirm that the sensitivity
setting has been changed.
Note: The programming sequence will end if either of the following
occur:
•The vehicle speed is not zero.
•The battery voltage is out of normal range.
Troubleshooting
If the automatic high beam camera becomes blocked, the high beams
may not come on automatically. They will only activate when they are
manually turned on with the multi-function lever.
Typical road dust, dirt and water spots will not affect the automatic high
beam system’s performance. However, in cold or inclement weather
conditions, the automatic high beam system’s availability may be
decreased. In such conditions, the manual override may be used to turn
the high beams on or off.
For significant blockages (e.g. bird dropping, bug splatter, snow, or ice),
the automatic high beam system uses a blocked sensor computer
program. If a blockage is detected and no changes are observed, the
system will go into low beam mode until the blockage is cleared. If
blockages are repeatedly detected, the system will stay in low beam
mode for the remainder of the ignition cycle unless the system is able to
begin detecting other vehicles again.
If it appears that automatic control of the high beams is not functioning
properly, check the windshield in front of the camera for blockage.
Flash-to-pass
Pull and release to activate.

AIMING THE HEADLAMPS
The headlamps on your vehicle are properly aimed at the assembly plant.
If your vehicle has been in an accident, the alignment of your headlamps
should be checked by your authorized dealer.
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.
•(1) 8 feet (2.4 meters)
•(2) Center height of lamp to
ground
•(3) 25 feet (7.6 meters)
•(4) Horizontal reference line
2. Measure the height of the
headlamp projector (cross hair mark
on inner lens) center from 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).
3. Turn on the headlamps to illuminate the wall or screen and open the
hood.
To see a clearer light pattern for adjusting, you may want to block the
light from one headlamp while adjusting the other.
4. On the wall or screen you will
observe a light pattern with a
distinct horizontal edge towards the
right. If this edge is not at the
horizontal reference line, the beam
will need to be adjusted so the edge
is at the same height as the
horizontal reference line.

5. Locate the vertical adjuster on
each headlamp. Using a Phillips #2
screwdriver, turn the adjuster either
clockwise (to adjust down) or
counterclockwise (to adjust up).
The horizontal edge of the brighter
light should touch the horizontal
reference line. Close the hood and
turn off the lamps.
HORIZONTAL AIM IS NOT REQUIRED FOR THIS VEHICLE AND IS
NON-ADJUSTABLE.
