high beams are on, a symbol
located in the instrument panel will
illuminate.
Flash-to-Pass
This feature uses the vehicle’s high
beams to alert the driver in front of you
that you intend to pass. To use it, pull
the turn signal lever toward you slightly,
but not so far that you hear a click. The
high beams will remain on for as long as
you hold the lever toward you.
Windshield Wipers
To operate the windshield wipers, turn
the WIPER band located on the multi-
function lever upward or downward.
To turn off the windshield wipers, turn
the band to OFF.
For low speed wiping, turn the band
away from you to the LO setting. For
high speeds, turn the band to HI.
Five sensitivity settings, located between
the OFF and HI settings, are provided
for a delayed wiping cycle.
Turn the band to the MIST setting for a
single wiping cycle. Hold the band until
the wipers begin, then let it go.
Windshield Washers
The windshield washer paddle is
marked PUSH and is located on top of
the multifunction lever. Push the paddle
to spray washer fluid onto the wind-
shield. The wipers will run for several
sweeps, then stop or return to your pre-
set speed.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Cruise Control
The Cruise Control feature is located at
the end of the Turn Signal/Multifunction
Lever. Cruise Control allows you to
maintain a speed of about 25 mph or
more (but not below 25 mph) without
keeping your foot on the accelerator. To
use Cruise Control:
1. Move the Cruise Control switch to ON.
2. Achieve the speed you desire.
3. Press the SET button at the tip of the
multifunction lever, then release it.
(The CRUISE light in the instrument
panel cluster will illuminate.)
4. Remove your foot from the
accelerator.
Cruise Control disengages when you
apply the brakes.
Resuming a Set Speed
To return to a preset speed after having
applied the brakes, once you’ve reached
25 mph or more, simply move the
Cruise Control switch from ON to R/A
(Resume/Accelerate).
