Page 215 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.
Page 216 Cruise control will not work if the parking brake is set, or if the master cylinder brake fluid level is low. The cruise control light on the instrument panel cluster will come on after the cruise control has been set to the desired speed.
Page 217 To reduce your speed while using cruise control: Press and hold the SET button on the steering wheel until the desired lower speed is reached, then release it. To slow down in small amounts, press the SET button on the steering wheel briefly. Each time this is done, the vehicle goes about 1.6 km/h (1 mph) slower.
Page 218 The exterior lamps control is located on the instrument panel to the left of the steering wheel.

Page 228 The driver and passenger side temperature buttons are used to adjust the temperature of the air coming through the system on the driver or passenger's side of the vehicle. The temperature can be adjusted even if the system is turned off. This is possible since outside air always flows through the system as the vehicle is moving forward unless it is set to recirculation mode.
Page 229 2. Set the driver and passenger temperature. To find your comfort setting, start with a 23°C (74°F) temperature setting and allow about 20 minutes for the system to regulate. Use the driver or passenger temperature buttons to adjust the temperature setting as necessary. If a temperature setting of 15°C (60°F) is chosen, the system remains at the maximum cooling setting.
Page 230 Air is directed to the floor outlets, with some to the windshield, side window outlets, and second row floor outlets. In this mode, the system automatically selects outside air. This mode clears the windows of fog or moisture. Air is directed to the windshield, floor outlets, and side window vents.
Page 231 Press to turn the recirculation mode on. An indicator light comes on to show that the recirculation is on. This mode recirculates and helps to quickly cool the air inside the vehicle. It can be used to help prevent outside air and odors from entering the vehicle. The recirculation mode cannot be used with floor, defog, or defrost modes.
Page 232 The solar sensor, located in the defrost grille, middle of the instrument panel, monitors the solar heat. Do not cover the solar sensor or the system will not work properly. 4-24 There is also an interior temperature sensor located next to the steering wheel that measures the temperature of the air inside your...

Page 235 The speedometer shows the vehicle's speed in both kilometers per hour (km/h) and miles per hour (mph). The odometer shows how far the vehicle has been driven, in either kilometers (used in Canada) or miles (used in the United States). The trip odometer can show how far the vehicle has been driven since the trip odometer was last set to zero.
Page 236 For vehicles equipped with the passenger safety belt reminder light, several seconds after the engine is started, a chime sounds for several seconds to remind the front passenger to buckle their safety belt. The passenger safety belt light, located on the overhead console, comes on and stays on for several seconds, flashes for several more seconds and then comes on solid for several more.
Page 237 If there is a problem with the airbag system, an airbag Driver Information Center (DIC) message can also come on. See for more information. If the vehicle has the airbag status indicator pictured in the following illustration, then the vehicle has a passenger sensing system for the right front passenger position.
Page 238 If the word ON or the on symbol is lit on the passenger airbag status indicator, it means that the right front passenger frontal airbag is enabled (may inflate). If the word OFF or the off symbol is lit on the airbag status indicator, it means that the passenger sensing system has turned off the right front passenger frontal airbag.

If the system is working normally the indicator light then goes off. If the ABS light stays on, turn the ignition off.
Page 242 This gage shows the engine coolant temperature. It also provides an indicator of how hard the vehicle is working. During a majority of the operation, the gage will read 210°F (100°C) or less. If the vehicle is pulling a 4-34 load or going up hills, it is normal for the temperature to fluctuate and approach the 250°F (122°C) mark.
Page 243 This indicates that one or more of the tires is significantly underinflated. A tire pressure message in the Driver Information Center (DIC), can accompany the light. See information. Stop and check the tires as soon as it is safe to do so. If underinflated, inflate to the proper pressure.

Malfunctions often are indicated by the system before any problem is apparent. Being aware of the light can prevent more serious damage to the vehicle. This system assists the service technician in correctly diagnosing any malfunction. 4-36 This light comes on during a malfunction in one of two ways: A misfire condition has been detected.
Page 245 An emission control system malfunction has been detected on the vehicle. Diagnosis and service might be required. An emission system malfunction might be corrected by doing the following: Make sure the fuel cap is fully installed. See . The diagnostic system can determine if the fuel cap has been left off or improperly installed.
Page 246 Some state/provincial and local governments have or might begin programs to inspect the emission control equipment on the vehicle. Failure to pass this inspection could prevent getting a vehicle registration. Here are some things to know to help the vehicle pass an inspection: The vehicle will not pass this inspection if the check engine light is on with the engine running,...
Page 247 This light comes on briefly while starting the engine. If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by your dealer/retailer. If the system is working normally the indicator light then goes off. If the light comes on and stays on, it means that oil is not flowing through the engine properly.
