Delayed Locking
This feature lets the driver delay the actual locking of
the vehicle. When the driver's power door lock switch
or the remote keyless entry lock button is pressed, with
the key removed from the ignition and the driver's door
open, a chime will sound three times to signal that the
delayed locking system is active. When all doors have
been closed, the doors will lock automatically after five
seconds. If any door is opened before this, the
five
-second timer will reset itself once all the doors have
been closed again.
Pressing a power door lock switch or the remote keyless
entry lock button again will override this feature.
Personalization Programming
The delayed locking feature can be turned on or off.
If your vehicle is not equipped with remote keyless
entry, the delayed locking feature can be turned on or off
by using the following procedure:
1. Keep all doors closed, the vehicle in PARK (P) and
the ignition on throughout this procedure.
2. Press and hold the driver's power door lock switch in
LOCK through Step 4.3. Cycle the parking lamp switch from off to on six
times. On the sixth cycle, the doors will unlock to
confirm that the feature has been turned on. Your
doors will remain locked if delayed locking is off.
If the doors unlock, delayed locking is on.
4. To change modes, cycle the parking lamp switch
once more. A locking action will confirm the
new mode.
5. Release the power door lock switch.
To turn the feature off, repeat the previous procedure.
If your vehicle is equipped with remote keyless entry,
your vehicle can be programmed to each driver's
preference for each of the transmitters. Use the
following procedure to turn the feature off using the
corresponding transmitter:
1. Keep all doors closed, the vehicle in PARK (P) and
the ignition on throughout this procedure.
2. Press and hold the power door lock switch in LOCK
throughout this procedure. All the doors will lock.

OFF: Lower the lever to its original position to turn the
wipers OFF.
INT (Intermittent): Push the lever up to the INT
position and turn the INT ADJ band to adjust the delay
time. The further you turn the band, the shorter the delay
between wiping cycles.
LO (Low Speed): Push the lever up to LO for steady
wiping at a slow speed.
HI (High Speed): Push the lever up to HI for steady
wiping at a high speed.
MIST: For a single wiping cycle, push the lever down
to the MIST position and let go. The wipers will stop
after one cycle. If you want more cycles, hold the
lever down.
Heavy snow or ice can overload your wiper motor. A
circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools. Clear
away snow or ice to prevent an overload.
Keep in mind that damaged wiper blades may prevent
you from seeing well enough to drive safely. To avoid
damage, be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper
blades before using them. If your blades do become
damaged, get new blades or blade inserts. See ªWiper
Blade Replacementº in the Index.Windshield Washer
At the end of the wiper lever, there's a button. To spray
washer fluid on the windshield, push the button until
you have enough fluid to clean the windshield. The
wipers will clear the window and either stop or return to
your preset speed.
CAUTION:
In freezing weather, don't use your washer until
the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking
your vision.
A WASHER FLUID warning light will indicate if the
fluid level in the windshield washer reservoir is low. See
ªLow Washer Fluid Warning Lightº in the Index.

Setting Cruise Control
CAUTION:
If you leave your cruise control switch on when
you're not using cruise, you might hit a button
and go into cruise when you don't want to. You
could be startled and even lose control. Keep the
cruise control switch off until you want to use
cruise control.
1. Move the cruise control switch to ON.
2. Get up to the speed you want.
3. Press the SET button.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake. This, of course, shuts off
the cruise control. But you don't need to reset it.Once you're going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more,
you can move the cruise lever up to R/A
(resume/accelerate) briefly.
You'll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay
there. Remember that if you hold the lever at R/A, the
vehicle will keep going faster until you release the
switch or apply the brake. So unless you want to go
faster, don't hold the lever at R/A.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed.

Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed.
Press the SET button and then release it as well
as the accelerator pedal. You'll now cruise at the
higher speed.

Move the cruise switch to R/A. Hold it there until
you get up to the speed you want, and then release it.
To increase your speed in very small amounts, move
the switch to R/A briefly and then release it. Each
time you do this, your vehicle will go about 1 mph
(1.6 km/h) faster.
The accelerate feature will only work after you have set
the cruise control speed by pressing the SET button.

2-75 Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in miles
per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h). Your
odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven,
in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers
(used in Canada).
The speedometer shows a top speed of 140 mph
(220 km/h). This is not intended to be the vehicle's
top speed.
Your vehicle is equipped with a tamper resistant
odometer. If you see ERROR displayed, you'll know
that someone has probably tried to turn it back.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle needs a
new odometer installed. If the new one can be set to the
mileage total of the old odometer, then it must be. But if
it can't, then it's set at zero and a label must be put on
the driver's door to show the old mileage reading when
the new odometer was installed.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer can tell you how far you have driven
since you last reset it.
To set it to zero, press the
trip reset button next to the
instrument panel cluster on
the right side.

2-81
When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
will also come on when you set your parking brake. The
light will stay on if your parking brake doesn't release
fully. If you try to drive off with the parking brake set, a
chime will also come on until you release the parking
brake. If the light stays on after your parking brake is
fully released, it means you have a brake problem.
If you have the optional Driver Information Center
(DIC), a PARK BRAKE SET message will be displayed
while the parking brake is set.
Anti-Lock Brake System Warning Light
United States CanadaWith the anti
-lock brake system, the light(s) will come
on when your engine is started and may stay on for
five seconds. That's normal.
If the light stays on, turn the ignition to OFF. Or, if the
light comes on when you're driving, stop as soon as
possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the engine
again to reset the system. If the light still stays on, or
comes on again while you're driving, your vehicle needs
service. If the regular brake system warning light isn't
on, you still have brakes, but you don't have anti
-lock
brakes. If the regular brake system warning light is also
on, you don't have anti
-lock brakes and there's a
problem with your regular brakes. See ªBrake System
Warning Lightº earlier in this section.
The anti
-lock brake system warning light should come
on briefly when you turn the ignition key to ON. If the
light doesn't come on then, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there is a problem.

2-85 Tire Pressure Light (If Equipped)
The check tire pressure system can alert you to a large
change in the pressure of one tire.
After the system has been
properly calibrated, the
TIRE PRESS light will
come on if a pressure
difference (low pressure) is
detected in one tire.
The light will stay on until you turn off the ignition or
reset (calibrate) the system. See ªCheck Tire Pressure
Systemº in the Index.The TIRE PRESS light also comes on briefly when you
turn your ignition key to START. If the light doesn't
come on then, have it fixed so it will be there to tell you
if the pressure in a tire is low.
If the anti-lock brake system warning light comes on,
the check tire pressure system may not be working
properly. See your dealer for service. Also, see
ªAnti
-Lock Brake System Warning Lightº in the Index.
On vehicles with the optional Driver Information Center
(DIC), a CHECK TIRE PRESSURE message replaces
the TIRE PRESS light when the system detects a
pressure difference (low pressure) in one tire. See ªDIC
Warnings and Messagesº in the Index for
more information.
