Battery Run-Down Protection The vehicle has a feature to help prevent the battery from draining in case the interior, trunk, or underhood lamps are accidentally left on. If any of these lamps are left on while the ignition is in OFF, they will automatically turn off after 10 minutes. The lamps will not come back on again until any of the following are done: Head-Up Display (HUD) {CAUTION: If the HUD image is too bright or too high in your field of view, it may take you more time to see things you need to see when it is dark outside. Be sure to keep the HUD image dim and placed low in your field of view. If the vehicle has the Head-Up Display (HUD), some information concerning the operation of the vehicle is projected onto the windshield. This includes the speedometer reading, transaxle positions, compass direction, outside air temperature, the tap shift gear and the upshift symbol if active, and a brief display of the current radio station, including XM information or CD track. It will also display turn-by-turn navigation information if the vehicle is equipped with a navigation radio. The images are projected by the HUD lens located on the driver's side of the instrument panel. The tap shift gear and the upshift symbol will also appear on the HUD if tap shift is active. • The ignition is turned to RUN or ACC. • The interior lamps control is turned completely to the right, then back slightly to the left. • Open, or close and reopen, a door that is closed.
