previously programmed them. If you have accidentally
pressed one of the memory recall buttons and want to stop
seat or mirror movement, press one of the manual seat or
mirror control buttons. This cancels a memory recall.
You can also recall a seat and mirror position if your
vehicle is not in PARK (P). Press and hold either the

settings. For more information, see ªClimate
Control Personalizationº and ªRadio Personalizationº
in the Index.

Driver's Side Temperature Button
The red and blue temperature buttons adjust the air
temperature coming through the system. Press the blue
button for a cooler setting or the red button for a
warmer setting.
Passenger's Side Temperature Knob
With this feature, the right front passenger can control
the temperature of air for his/her own zone. The
passenger can select a four degree warmer or cooler
temperature from the driver's setting.
To turn the system on, press the knob on the passenger's
side armrest. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the
temperature and counterclockwise to decrease the
temperature. Press the knob again to turn the system off.
Outside Temperature Display
The outside temperature is always displayed when your
vehicle is running. You can change it from Fahrenheit to
Celsius by pressing the ENG/MET (English/metric)
button on the Driver Information Center (DIC).The outside temperature sensor is located near the front
grille. The sensor can be affected by road or engine heat
during idling, slow driving or when the engine is first
started after a short trip. In order to ensure proper
automatic climate control operation, the outside air
temperature display may not update as quickly as
expected. This is to allow the air surrounding the outside
temperature sensor to be as close to the actual outside
conditions as possible. This is determined by how much
time has elapsed since the vehicle has been turned off and
by vehicle speed.
Mode Controls
The AUTO/ECON button automatically controls the
direction of air delivery for air conditioning and non
-air
conditioning modes.
Automatic Operation
When the system is set for automatic operation, sensors
will control the air delivery mode. Air will come from
the floor, middle or windshield outlets. The fan speed
will vary as the system maintains the selected
temperature setting.
Be careful not to put anything over the solar sensor
located in the middle of the instrument panel near the
windshield. This sensor is used by the automatic system
to regulate temperature.

yellowblue
3-4
To find your comfort zone, start with the 75
F (24
C)
setting and allow about 30 minutes for the system to
regulate. Press the red or blue temperature buttons to
adjust the temperature if necessary. If you choose 60
F
(16
C), the system will remain at that maximum cooling
setting and will not regulate fan speed. If you choose the
temperature of 90
F (32
C), the system will remain at
that maximum heating setting and will not regulate fan
speed. Choosing either maximum setting will not cause
the system to heat or cool any faster.
With the automatic setting, the air conditioning
compressor automatically cycles when needed to cool
the air. In cold weather, when the system senses the need
for heat, the airflow will be directed out the floor
outlets. As the interior temperature approaches a desired
setting, the blower speed will decrease. To maintain
interior comfort, the airflow may move to the instrument
panel air outlets and floor outlets (bi
-level mode). On
bright sunny days in cold weather, the airflow may come
out of the air conditioning outlets (AC mode) to
maintain comfort and prevent stuffiness.If your vehicle is sitting out on a hot day and you have it
set on AUTO, the air will first flow out the floor air
outlets for a few seconds. That is normal. This is to
expel hot air from the air outlets. As the air is cooled,
the airflow will move through the air conditioning
outlets. If you start your vehicle with the fan setting on
HI, it will skip the air conditioning purge.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system will
delay turning on the fan until warm air is available. The
length of delay depends on the outside air temperature,
engine coolant temperature or the time since the engine
was last started. As the coolant warms up, the blower fan
speed will gradually increase and air will flow from the
heater outlets, with some airflow to the windshield to
prevent fogging under most normal conditions.
If you leave your vehicle, the system will remember the
control setting the next time you start your engine,
except for recirculation and defrost. Each ignition cycle
cancels recirculation, whereas, DEFROST will change
to automatic operation when the ignition is shut off and
then turned back on.

Ventilation Tips

Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or
any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater
and defroster will work far better, reducing the
chance of fogging the inside of the windows.

Keep the air path under the front seats clear
of objects. This helps circulate air throughout
your vehicle.
HVAC Steering Wheel Controls
Some heating and cooling
controls can be adjusted at
the steering wheel. Other
touch controls operate some
audio controls. See ªAudio
Steering Wheel Controlsº
in the Index.
FAN SPEED: Press the up arrow lever to
increase the fan speed and the down arrow lever to
decrease fan speed.
TEMP: Press the up arrow lever to increase
the temperature and the down arrow lever to
decrease temperature.
Climate Control Personalization
(If Equipped)
With this feature, your vehicle will recall the latest
climate control settings as adjusted the last time your
vehicle was operated. This feature allows two different
drivers to store and recall their own climate control
settings. The settings recalled by the climate control
system are determined by which remote keyless entry
transmitter (ª1º or ª2º) was used to enter the vehicle.
The number on the back of the remote keyless entry
transmitter corresponds to driver 1 or to driver 2. After
the unlock button is pressed on the remote keyless entry
transmitter or the ignition key is placed in the ignition
(the ignition must be turned to LOCK), the climate
control settings will automatically adjust to where they
were last set. The settings can also be changed by briefly
pressing the memory seat buttons 1 or 2 located on the
driver's door.

Finding a Station
BAND: Press this button to select AM, FM1 or FM2.
SEEK
-TUNE: Press and release this button to seek to the
next higher or lower radio station. Pressing and holding
this button until a chime sounds puts the radio in a tune
mode. In this mode, higher or lower radio stations are
advanced to in small increments until the SEEK
-TUNE
button is released. Tuning stops when you release this
button. If you press and hold the SEEK
-TUNE button
again within five seconds of being in the tune mode,
tuning will continue. Waiting longer than five seconds
places the radio back in the seek mode.
SCAN: Press this button and SCAN will appear on the
display. Use SCAN to listen to stations for a few
seconds. The radio will go to a station, stop for a few
seconds, then go on to the next station. Press this button
again to stop scanning.
PUSHBUTTONS: The six numbered pushbuttons let
you return to your favorite stations. You can set up to
18 stations (six AM, six FM1 and six FM2). Just:
1. Turn the radio on.2. Press BAND to select AM, FM1 or FM2.
3. Tune in the desired station.
4. Press and hold one of the six numbered buttons for
more than two seconds until you hear a beep.
Whenever you press that numbered button for less
than two seconds, the station you set will return.
5. Repeat the steps for each pushbutton.
When battery power is removed and later applied, you
will not have to reset your radio presets because the
radio remembers them.
PRESET SCAN: Press and hold SCAN for two to
three seconds until PRESET SCAN appears on the
display to listen to each of your preset stations for a
few seconds (factory presets which have not been
reprogrammed with your stations will be ignored). The
radio will go to the first preset station stored on your
pushbuttons, stop for a few seconds, then go on to the
next preset station. Press SCAN again to stop scanning.
If a preset station has weak reception, the radio will not
stop at the preset station.
