of a turn until it stops.
If the fuel cap is not properly secured, the

the message center. The warning will be reset
once the cap is properly tightened and your
vehicle is driven a short distance.
ABS Warning Lamp
Illuminates briefly when the ignition is
turned to the ON position. In an
emergency, apply continuous force on
the brake to prevent wheel lock when

Gearshift/Overdrive Control
Overdrive is the normal drive
position for the best fuel economy.
Only deactivate (OFF) overdrive
when: driving with a heavy load, towing a
trailer up or down steep hills, or when
additional engine braking is desired. To
deactivate, press the transmission control
switch (TCS) located on the gearshift.
Note:
The transmission shift strategy will slightly
delay transmission upshift in cold weather to
decrease the time required to warm up the engine
and produce heat in the passenger compartment.

Headlamp and Panel
Dimmer Control
Rotate clockwise one position
from off to turn on the parking
lamps. Rotate two positions
from off to also turn on the
headlamps. Rotate
counterclockwise to activate
autolamp, which provides light-sensitive automatic
on-off control of the exterior lights and keeps them
on for a short period of time after the ignition is
turned OFF. When the control is in any position
except high beams or off, pull the control toward
you to activate the foglamps.
Use the panel dimmer control, located to the right
of the headlamp control, to adjust the brightness
of the instrument panel during headlamp and
parklamp operation. Rotate to full up position to
turn on interior lamps.

Wiper/Washer Control
For front-wiper operation, rotate the outer ring to
the desired interval,
low- or high-speed
position. When in the
intermittent position, rotate
the control up for fast, or down for
slow wiping intervals. Also, when the
wiper control is set in the intermittent position, the
speed-sensitive feature automatically adjusts the
wipers as the vehicle’s speed changes. Push the
end of the stalk briefly for a single wipe (no
wash). Push and hold to activate the washer.
The inner ring on the right operates the rear-
window wiper. Rotate the control to INT 1 (slow
interval), INT 2 (fast interval), or washer position.
For extended wiper blade quality, occasional
cleaning of the wiper blades is required.
