Vehicle Damage Warnings
Also, in this book you will find these notices:
NOTICE:
These mean there is something that could damage
your vehicle.
In the notice area, we tell you about something that can
damage your vehicle. Many times, this damage would
not be covered by your warranty, and it could be costly.
But the notice will tell you what to do to help avoid
the damage.
When you read other manuals, you might see
CAUTION and NOTICE warnings in different
colors or in different words.
You'll also see warning labels on your vehicle.
They use the same words, CAUTION or NOTICE.
Vehicle Symbols
Your vehicle may be equipped with components and
labels that use symbols instead of text. Symbols,
used on your vehicle, are shown along with the text
describing the operation or information relating to a
specific component, control, message, gage or indicator.
If you need help figuring out a specific name of a
component, gage or indicator reference the following
topics in the Index:

ªEngine Compartment Overviewº

B (ACCESSORY): This position allows you to use
things like the radio and the windshield wipers when the
engine is off. This position will allow you to turn off the
engine, but still turn the steering wheel. If your vehicle
has a column shifter, you will still be able to move the
shift lever. Use ACCESSORY if you must have your
vehicle in motion while the engine is off (for example, if
your vehicle is being pushed or towed).
C (ON): This position is for driving. If your vehicle has
a console shifter and you turn off the engine, the
transaxle will lock. If you need to shift the transaxle out
of PARK (P), the ignition key has to be in 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.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
Passenger compartment air, both outside air and
recirculated air, is routed through a passenger
compartment filter. The filter removes certain
contaminants from the air, including pollen and dust
particles. Reductions in airflow, which may occur more
quickly in dusty areas, indicate that the filter needs to
be replaced early.
The filter should be replaced as part of routine
scheduled maintenance. See ªPassenger Compartment
Air Filterº in the Index for more information on
replacement. See ªMaintenance Scheduleº in the Index
for replacement intervals.
Your vehicle will not be damaged if you choose not to
replace the filter once the old one is removed.HVAC Steering Wheel Controls
(If Equipped)
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.
~TEMP! (Temperature): Press the up arrow on the
control to increase the temperature and the down arrow
to decrease temperature manually.
!
~
(Fan): Press the up arrow on the control to
increase the fan speed and the down arrow to decrease
fan speed manually.

Audio Systems
Your audio system has been designed to operate easily
and give years of listening pleasure. You will get the
most enjoyment out of it if you acquaint yourself with it
first. Find out what your audio system can do and how
to operate all of its controls to be sure you're getting the
most out of the advanced engineering that went into it.
Your vehicle has a feature called Retained Accessory
Power (RAP). With RAP, you can play your audio
system even after the ignition is turned off. See
ªRetained Accessory Powerº in the Index.

Using DSP
DSP (Digital Signal Processing): This feature is used to
provide a choice of four different listening experiences:
talk, front seat, ambience and spacious. DSP can be used
while listening to the radio, the cassette tape player or the
CD player. Press this button to turn DSP on. Press and
release this button until the desired selection appears on
the display. To turn DSP off, press and hold this button
until DSP OFF appears on the display. When DSP OFF
is displayed, the system will provide the best overall audio
performance. The radio keeps separate DSP settings for
each band (except weather band, which is always set to
talk), preset and source.
TALK: This setting should be used when listening to
non
-musical material such as news, talk shows, sports
broadcasts and books on tape. TALK makes spoken
words sound very clear.
FRONT SEAT: This setting adjusts the audio to give
the driver the best possible sound qualities. Front seat
can be used at any time for any material. Rear seat
passengers in the vehicle may not get the same effect.
AMBIENCE: This setting is used to enhance the
stereo effect.
SPACIOUS: This setting is used to make the listening
space seem larger.Using RDS
Your audio system is equipped with Radio Data Systems
(RDS). RDS mode gives you many useful new features.
With RDS the radio can:

seek to stations with traffic announcements,

receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies,

receive and display messages from radio stations and

search for a stronger station when a station is too
weak for listening.
RDS features are only available for use on FM stations
which broadcast RDS information.
RDS (Radio Data Systems): If you are tuned to a
station broadcasting RDS information, the station's call
letters and Program Type (PTY) will replace the
station's frequency on the display. After five seconds,
the program type will be replaced on the display by the
station's program type name. The program type and
program type name may be the same or different. Press
BAND to recall the frequency and program type
displays. If the radio is tuned to a station that is not
broadcasting RDS information, the station's frequency
will remain on the display. With RDS the radio will
search for a stronger station in the network when a
station gets too weak for listening.

3-22
When a traffic announcement comes on the current radio
station or a related network station, you will hear it,
even if the volume is muted or a cassette tape or
compact disc is playing. If the radio tunes to a related
network station for a traffic announcement, it will return
to the original station when the announcement is
finished. If the cassette tape or compact disc player was
being used, the tape or compact disc will stay in the
player and resume play at the point where it stopped.
Press the TA button again to turn TA off.
MSG (Message): If the current station has a message,
MSG will appear on the display. Press the MSG button,
to see the message. If the whole message does not appear
on the display, parts of the message will appear every three
seconds until the message is completed. To see the parts
of the message faster than every three seconds, press the
MSG button again. A new group of words will appear
on the display. Once the complete message has been
displayed, MSG will disappear from the display until
another new MSG is received.
XM
Satellite Radio (If Equipped)
XM is a national satellite radio service that offers up to
100 coast to coast channels including music, news,
sports, talk and children's programming. XM providesdigital quality audio and text information, including
song title and artist name. A service fee is required
in order to receive the XM service. For more
information, contact XM at www.xmradio.com or
call 1
-800-852-XMXM (9696).
MSG (Message): Press this button while in XM mode
to retrieve various pieces of information related to the
current song or channel. By pressing and releasing the
MSG button, you may retrieve four different categories
of information: Artist Name/Feature, Song/Program
Title, Channel Category, and other Additional
Information that may be broadcast on that channel.
Additional Information messages may only be available
at certain times or on certain programs. If an Additional
Information message is being broadcast on the tuned
channel, MSG will appear on the display.
Each of the four information types may have multiple
pages of text. To reach a category, press and release the
MSG button consecutively until the desired type is
displayed. If there are multiple pages of text for the
information selected type, the radio will automatically
display all the pages for that type at a rate of
approximately one page every three seconds before
timing out and returning to the default display. You may
override this feature by pressing the MSG button to
review all of the pages at your own pace.
