Tilt Wheel
You should adjust the
steering wheel before
you drive. The tilt lever
is located on the driver's
side of the steering column,
under the turn signal lever.
You can raise it to the highest level to give your legs
more room when you enter and exit the vehicle.
To tilt the wheel, hold the steering wheel and pull
the lever toward you. Move the steering wheel to a
comfortable level, then release the lever to lock the
wheel in place.
Do not adjust the steering wheel while driving.

The lever on the left side of the steering column
includes the following:
: Turn and Lane Change Signals
: Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer

2-33 Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low to high beam,
push the lever toward the instrument panel. To return
to low
-beam headlamps pull the multifunction lever
toward you. Then release it.
When the high beams
are on, this indicator light
on the instrument panel
cluster will also be on.
Flash-to-Pass Feature
This feature lets you use your high-beam headlamps to
signal a driver in front of you that you want to pass. It works
even if your headlamps are in the automatic position.
To use it, pull the turn signal lever toward you,
then release it.
If your headlamps are in the automatic position or on
low beam, your high
-beam headlamps will turn on.
They'll stay on as long as you hold the lever toward
you. The high
-beam indicator on the instrument panel
cluster will come on. Release the lever to return to
normal operation.

When it begins to get dark, the headlamps will
automatically switch from DRL to the regular headlamps.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, put your vehicle's
transmission in PARK (P). The DRL will stay off until
you shift out of PARK (P).
The following does not apply to vehicles sold in Canada.
When necessary, you may turn off the automatic headlamp
system and the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) feature
by following the steps below:
1. Turn the ignition to RUN.
2. Press the dome override button four times within
six seconds. After the fourth press of the button,
a chime will sound informing you that the system
is off.
3. To return to the automatic mode, push the dome
override button four times within six seconds (the
chime will sound), or turn the ignition to LOCK
and then to RUN again.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need it.Fog Lamps
Use your fog lamps for better vision in foggy or misty
conditions. Your ignition must be in RUN for your
fog lamps to work.
The fog lamp button is
located on the instrument
panel to the right of the
exterior lamps knob.
Press the button to turn
the fog lamps on. Press the
button again to turn them
off. A light will glow near
the button when the fog
lamps are on.
Fog lamps will go off whenever your high
-beam
headlamps come on. When the high beams go off,
the fog lamps will come on again.

Here are some tips on night driving.
Drive defensively.
Don't drink and drive.
Since you can't see as well, you may need to
slow down and keep more space between you
and other vehicles.
Slow down, especially on higher speed roads.
Your headlamps can light up only so much
road ahead.
In remote areas, watch for animals.
If you're tired, pull off the road in a safe place
and rest.
No one can see as well at night as in the daytime. But as
we get older these differences increase. A 50
-year-old
driver may require at least twice as much light to see the
same thing at night as a 20
-year-old.
What you do in the daytime can also affect your night
vision. For example, if you spend the day in bright
sunshine you are wise to wear sunglasses. Your eyes
will have less trouble adjusting to night. But if you're driving, don't wear sunglasses at night.
They may cut down on glare from headlamps, but they
also make a lot of things invisible.
You can be temporarily blinded by approaching
headlamps. It can take a second or two, or even
several seconds, for your eyes to readjust to the dark.
When you are faced with severe glare (as from a driver
who doesn't lower the high beams, or a vehicle with
misaimed headlamps), slow down a little. Avoid staring
directly into the approaching headlamps.
Keep your windshield and all the glass on your vehicle
clean
-- inside and out. Glare at night is made much
worse by dirt on the glass. Even the inside of the glass
can build up a film caused by dust. Dirty glass makes
lights dazzle and flash more than clean glass would,
making the pupils of your eyes contract repeatedly.
Remember that your headlamps light up far less of a
roadway when you are in a turn or curve. Keep your
eyes moving; that way, it's easier to pick out dimly
lighted objects. Just as your headlamps should be
checked regularly for proper aim, so should your eyes
be examined regularly. Some drivers suffer from night
blindness
-- the inability to see in dim light -- and
aren't even aware of it.
