When you enter the vehicle after a

the parking lamps turn off.

Press and release the Hazard
Warning Flashers button inside the

•
Turn the key in the ignition switch
on and then off.
•
The engine will automatically stop
when time expires.
AUTO TURN SIGNAL
The turn signal lever includes an
automatic lane change signal feature.
To signal a lane change, raise or
lower the lever until the arrow on
the instrument panel cluster starts to
flash, and then release the lever. The
turn signal will automatically flash
three times. If the Tow/Haul mode
is selected, the turn signal will
automatically flash six times.
To signal a turn, move the lever all
the way up or down.
INTELLIBEAM AUTOMATIC
HEADLAMPS (if equipped)
IntelliBeam uses a digital light sensor
behind the inside rearview mirror
to maximize forward night vision.
The system automatically switches
on the high-beam headlamps when
no other vehicle traffic is present,
and switches to low beam intensity
when the headlamps or taillamps of
other vehicles are detected. The
system operates only when driving
over 20 mph.
The system is turned on
automatically when the headlamp
system is set to AUTO and the turn
signal/multifunction lever is in the
low beam position.
To turn off the system, press and
hold the
(Auto Headlamps)
button on the inside rearview mirror
for three seconds. Press the button
again to turn the system back on.
AUTOMATIC HEADLAMP
SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with an
Automatic Headlamp System, which
automatically turns on the Daytime
Running Lamps (DRL) during the day
and the headlamps and other
exterior lamps at night or when
necessary.
Note:
The Remote Vehicle Start feature
will not operate if the key is in the
ignition, a door or the hood is open, or
the Check Engine light is illuminated on
the instrument panel cluster.
