Headlamp Washer
For vehicles with headlamp washers, they are located to
the inside of the headlamps.
Press L located at the end of the windshield wiper
lever, to wash the headlamps and windshield. After the
first wash, the headlamps will be washed after the
fifth press of the windshield washer button.
The headlamps must be on to be washed. If the washer
fluid is low, the headlamp washers will not work.

information.
Cruise Control
With cruise control, a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h)
or more can be maintained without keeping your foot
on the accelerator. Cruise control does not work
at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h).
If the brakes are applied, the cruise control shuts off.
{
CAUTION:
Cruise control can be dangerous where you cannot
drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not use the
cruise control on winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads.
On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can
cause excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on slippery roads.
If the vehicle is in cruise control when the Traction
Control System (TCS) begins to limit wheel spin or the
stability control system activates, the cruise control
automatically disengages. See Traction Control System
(TCS) on page 4-10 and StabiliTrak
®
System on page 4-6
or Enhanced StabiliTrak
®
on page 4-6. When road
conditions allow you to safely use it again, the cruise
control can be turned back on.
