The autounlock feature will unlock all
the doors when:
• the ignition is on, all the doors are
closed, and your vehicle has been
in motion at a speed greater than
12 mph (20 km/h);
• your vehicle comes to a stop and
you switch the ignition off or to

• you open the driver door within 10
minutes of switching the ignition
off or to accessory.
Note: The doors will not autounlock if
you electronically lock your vehicle
after you switch the ignition off and
before you open the driver door.
Enabling or Disabling
Note: You can enable or disable the
autolock and autounlock features
independently of each other.
You can enable or disable these
features in the information display or
your authorized dealer can do it for
you. See General Information (page
100). Illuminated Entry

the doors with the remote entry
system.
The illuminated entry system will turn
off the lights if:
•
the ignition is on,
• you press the remote control lock
button, or

Note:
If you switch autolamps on in
conjunction with autowipers, your low
beam headlamps will illuminate
automatically when the rain sensor
activates the windshield wipers
continuously.
Note: Wet road conditions can cause
unexpected wiping or smearing.
To reduce smearing we recommend
the following:
• Lower the sensitivity of the
autowipers.
• Switch to normal or high speed
wipe.
• Switch the autowipers off. Highest sensitivity
A
OnB
Lowest sensitivity
C
The wipers will function when
moisture is detected on the
windshield. The rain sensor will
continue to monitor the amount of
moisture on the windshield and adjust
the speed of the wipers automatically.
This feature can be switched on or off
in the information display. See
General Information (page 100). Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the rain sensor. With low
sensitivity, the wipers will operate
when the sensor detects a large
amount of moisture on the windshield.
With high sensitivity, the wipers will
operate when the sensor detects a
small amount of moisture on the
windshield.
Keep the outside of the windshield
clean. Sensor performance will be
affected if the area around the interior
mirror is dirty. The rain sensor is very
sensitive and the wipers may operate
if dirt, mist or flies hit the windshield.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS
Note:
Do not operate the washers
when the washer reservoir is empty.
This may cause the washer pump to
overheat. The washers will spray for as long as
you pull the lever toward you. When
you release the lever, the wipers will
operate for a short time.

Once your vehicle has started, it
remains running until you press the
start button, even if it does not detect
a valid key. If you open and close a
door while your vehicle is running, the
system searches for a valid key. You
cannot start your vehicle if it does not
detect a valid key within 20 seconds.
Automatic Engine Shutdown
Your vehicle is equipped with a
feature that automatically shuts down
the engine if it has been idling for an
extended period of time. The ignition
also turns off in order to save battery
power. Before the engine shuts down,
a message appears in the information
display showing a timer counting
down from 30 seconds. If you do not
intervene within 30 seconds, the
engine shuts down. Another message
appears in the information display to
inform you that the engine has shut
down in order to save fuel. Start your
vehicle as you normally do.
Automatic Engine Shutdown

Note:
You cannot permanently switch
off the automatic engine shutdown
feature. When it is temporarily
switched off, it turns on at the next

the 30 second countdown has expired
by doing any of the following: • • You can reset the timer by
interacting with your vehicle (such
as pressing the brake pedal or
accelerator pedal).
• • You can temporarily switch off the shutdown feature any time the
ignition is on (for the current
ignition cycle only). Use the
information display to do so. See
Information Displays (page 100).

prompted to press OK or RESET
(depending on your type of
information display) to temporarily
switch the feature off (for the
current ignition cycle only).

fastened their safety belts.
• Make sure the headlamps and
electrical accessories are off.
