Multifunction Lever
The multifunction lever controls the operation of the headlights, parking lights, turn signals, headlight beam selection, instrument panel light dimming, interior lights, the passing lights, and the fog lights. The multifunction lever is located on the left side of the steering column.
Multifunction Lever
Headlights And Parking Lights
Turn the end of the multifunction lever to the first detent to turn on the parking lights. Turn the end of the lever to the second detent to turn on the headlights.
Headlight Switch
Automatic Headlights — If Equipped
Turning the end of the multifunction lever to the third detent (AUTO), will activate the automatic headlight system.
Headlight Switch
With the engine running and the multifunction lever in the AUTO position, the headlights will turn on and turn off based on the surrounding light levels.
Daytime Running Lights — If Equipped
The high beam lights will come on as Daytime Running Lights (lower intensity), whenever the ignition is ON, the engine is running, the headlight switch is off, the parking brake is off, the turn signal is off, and the gear selector is in any position except PARK.
Lights-On Reminder
If the headlights or parking lights are left on after the ignition is turned OFF, a chime will sound to alert the driver when the driver’s door is opened.
Fog Lights — If Equipped
The front fog light switch is on the multifunction lever. To activate the front fog lights, turn on the parking lights or the low beam headlights and pull out the end of the multifunction lever.
Front Fog Light Control
NOTE: The fog lights will only operate with the headlights on low beam. Selecting high beam headlights will turn off the fog lights.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down and the arrows on each side of the instrument cluster flash to show proper operation of the front and rear turn signal lights.
Turn Signal Control
NOTE: If either light remains on and does not flash, or there is a very fast flash rate, check for a defective outside light bulb. If an indicator fails to light when the lever is moved, it would suggest that the indicator bulb is defective.
Lane Change Assist
Tap the lever up or down once, without moving beyond the detent, and the turn signal (right or left) will flash three times then automatically turn off.
High/Low Beam Switch
Push the multifunction lever away from you to switch the headlights to high beam. Pull the multifunction lever toward you to switch the headlights back to low beam.
Flash-To-Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by lightly pulling the multifunction lever toward you. This will turn on the high beam headlights until the lever is released.
NOTE: If the multifunction lever is held in the flash-topass position for more than 20 seconds, the high beams will shut off. If this occurs, wait 30 seconds for the next flash-to-pass operation.
Headlights On With Wipers (Available With Automatic Headlights Only)
When this feature is active, the headlights will turn on approximately 10 seconds after the wipers are turned on if the headlight switch is placed in the AUTO position. In addition, the headlights will turn off when the wipers are turned off if they were turned on by this feature.
NOTE: The Headlights On with Wipers feature can be turned on or off using the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC). Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further information.
Instrument Panel Dimmer
Rotate the center portion of the lever to the extreme bottom position to fully dim the instrument panel lights and prevent the interior lights from illuminating when a door is opened.
Rotate the center portion of the lever up to increase the brightness of the instrument panel lights when the parking lights or headlights are on.
Rotate the center portion of the lever upward to the next detent position to brighten the odometer and radio when the parking lights or headlights are on.
Rotate the center portion of the lever upward to the last detent to turn on the interior lighting.
Dimmer Control
Map/Reading Lights
These lights are mounted between the sun visors above the rear view mirror. Each light is turned on by pushing the button. Push the button a second time to turn the light off. The lights also come on when a door is opened or the dimmer control is turned fully upward, past the second detent.
NOTE: The lights will remain on until the switch is pushed a second time, so be sure they have been turned off before leaving the vehicle. They will not turn off automatically.
