Parking Brake
The parking brake lever is located
between the driver’s and front passen-
ger’s seats. If your vehicle is equipped
with the folding armrest between the
seats, it is necessary to lift the armrest
to set the parking brake.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
Sunroof (if equipped)
The control switch for the sunroof is
located on the headliner between the
sun visors. It will operate only while the
ignition is on.
Vent Position: Open the sunshade
manually. Press the rear part of the
switch.
Open Position: Press and hold the rear
part of the switch until the sunroof opens
to the desired position. If the sunshade
is closed, it will open automatically when
the sunroof is opened.
Closed Position: Press and hold the
front part of the switch until the sunroof
closes. Close the sunshade manually.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
Traction Control (if equipped)
The Traction Control system activates
every time you start your vehicle. When
one or more of the drive wheels begin to
spin from traction loss, the Traction
Control system will illuminate a light on
the instrument panel and reduce engine
power until traction is regained. If your
vehicle becomes stuck and rocking the
vehicle is required, the system should
be turned off.
To deactivate the Traction Control
system, move the gearshift lever to the
Low (L) position.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Electric Power Steering
The speed-sensitive electric power
steering system offers variable-effort
steering assistance based on vehicle
speed, providing more assistance at
lower speeds and less assistance at
higher speeds.
If you turn the steering wheel in either
direction several times until it stops, or
hold the steering wheel in the stopped
position for an extended time, you may
notice a reduced amount of power
steering assistance. The regular amount
of power steering assistance should
return shortly after a few normal steering
movements.
See Section 4 of your Owner Manual.
