RAINSENSE™ II WINDSHIELD

in the AUTO position.
The windshield wipers control is
located on the multifunction stalk on
the left side of the steering column.

down to this position to turn the
wipers on for one wipe.
(Off): Rotate the control band to
this position to turn the wipers Off.

control band up to one of the sensitivity
levels to activate the Rainsense
function. The position closest to Off
is the lowest sensitivity level.

to this position to turn the wipers on
the Low setting.
(High): Rotate the control band
up to this position to tur
n the wipers
on the High setting.

STABILITRAK®– STABILITY CONTROL
SYSTEM
StabiliTrak is an advanced computercontrolled vehicle stability
enhancement system that assists with
directional control of the vehicle in
difficult driving conditions. It turns on
automatically every time you start
your vehicle.
When the system senses a
discrepancy between your intended
path and the direction the vehicle is
actually traveling, it selectively
applies brake pressure at any one of
the wheels to help steer the vehicle
in the direction in which you are
steering.
To limit wheelspin, you should
always leave the system on. If your
vehicle becomes stuck and rocking
the vehicle is required, the system
should be turned off.
To turn off the system, press the
traction control button located on the
center console. For vehicles without a
center console, the button is located
at the end of the gearshift lever.

The Oil Life System calculates engine
oil life based on vehicle use and
displays CHANGE ENGINE OIL in the

following an oil change.
To Reset the Oil Life System:

until the DIC displays ENGINE OIL
LIFE.
3. Press and hold the (Set/Reset)
