Comfort Controls
This section tells you how to make your air system
work for you.
With the climate control system, you can control
the heating, cooling and ventilation in your vehicle.
Your vehicle also has a flow
-through ventilation
system described later in this section.
Climate Control Panel
Fan Switch
!~
(Fan): The switch with the fan symbol adjusts the
fan speed. Press the up arrow to increase fan speed and
the down arrow to decrease fan speed.Driver's Side Temperature Knob
The TEMP/AUTO knob adjusts the air temperature
coming through the system. Turn the TEMP/AUTO
knob clockwise to increase the temperature and
counterclockwise to decrease the temperature.
Press the TEMP/AUTO knob to put the system
in the automatic mode.
Passenger's Side Temperature Switch
With this dual
-zone feature, the right front passenger
can control the temperature of air for his/her own zone.
The passenger can select a temperature that is up to
four degrees warmer or cooler than the driver's setting.
To turn the system on, press the PASS/TEMP switch.
Press the up arrow to increase the temperature and press
the down arrow to decrease it. Pressing the OFF button
will turn off the dual
-zone function.
Outside Temperature Display
The outside temperature is always displayed when your
vehicle is running. You can change it from Fahrenheit
to Celsius with the Driver Information Center (DIC).
Pressing the SKIP INFO button (above the radio) until
ENGLISH/METRIC RESET is displayed. Then press
the NO INFO RESET button to select.

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 Switch
Press the MODE switch to deliver air through the floor,
middle or windshield outlets. The system will stay in
the selected mode until the MODE switch is pressed
again. Press the up or down arrow to cycle through
the available modes.Manual Operation
You may manually adjust the air delivery mode or
fan speed.
(Bi-Level): This setting directs air into your
vehicle in two ways. Cool air is directed to the upper
portion of your body through the four instrument
panel outlets while warmed air is directed to the floor.
Heater/Defrost): This setting directs air to the
floor outlets and toward the windshield.
(Heater): This setting directs warmed air through
the floor outlets. Some warm air is diverted to the
windshield to minimize fogging.
(Defrost): Press this button to quickly remove
fog or frost from the windshield. This setting sends
most of the airflow to the windshield with only a
small amount to the floor outlets.

!~(Fan): Press the switch with the fan symbol on it
until AUTO is displayed on the screen. This setting
automatically controls the fan speed. If it is cold outside,
the fan may not run in the maximum speed right away.
The system checks the temperature of the engine coolant
to assure it is warm enough to provide heat. When the
engine coolant is warm, the controller allows the fan to
gradually increase to a higher speed. This prevents cold
air from blowing into the passenger compartment. If you
want the fan at a higher speed, press the up arrow until
you see HI on the display. If you want the fan speed to
be automatic, but you want the fan speed to be higher
than the AUTO setting, press the fan symbol until
HI AUTO is shown on the display. If you want the
fan at a lower speed, press the down arrow until LO is
shown on the display. If you want the fan speed to run
lower than the AUTO setting, press the switch until
LO AUTO is shown on the display.OFF: Press this button to turn the system off.
Fresh air will continue to flow through the vehicle,
and the system will try to maintain the previously set
temperature. The outside temperature will show on the
display when the system is OFF.
AC (Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn the
air conditioning on and off. The system will cool and
dehumidify the air inside the vehicle. In the AUTO
mode, the display will show that AC is active, but the
air conditioning compressor only operates when the
system determines it is needed.
(Recirculation): Press this button to limit the
amount of outside air entering your vehicle. This is
helpful when you are trying to cool the air quickly or
limit odors entering your vehicle. In the AUTO mode,
the system will use recirculation as necessary to cool
the air. Pressing the recirculation button will change the
operation to a manual mode and the air will recirculate
non
-stop. Press this button again to turn off the
recirculation feature.
If you notice the windows fogging, press the
recirculation button to exit the recirculation mode.

3-10 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): 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)
This feature allows both drivers (driver 1 or 2 depending
on the number on the back of your remote keyless entry
transmitter) to personalize their own climate control
settings. For more information, see ªMemory and
Personalization Featuresº in the Index.
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.
Setting the Clock
Press and hold HR or MN until the time display begins
to change. Release the button as you get close to the
correct time. The time may be set anytime the clock is
displayed. There is a two
-second delay before the clock
goes into time
-set mode.

for more than two seconds until you hear a beep.
Whenever you press that numbered pushbutton 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.

Cassette Tape Messages
If an error occurs while trying to play a cassette tape,
it could be one of the following reasons:
The cassette tape is tight and the cassette player
cannot turn the hubs of the tape. Hold the cassette
tape with the open end down and try turning the
right hub counterclockwise with a pencil. Flip the
tape over and repeat. If the hubs do not turn easily,
your cassette tape may be damaged and should not
be used in the player. Try a new tape to be sure your
player is working properly.
The cassette tape is broken. (Check to see if your
tape is broken. Try a new tape.)
CLN (Clean): If this message appears on the display,
the cassette tape player needs to be cleaned. It will still
play tapes, but you should clean it as soon as possible to
prevent damage to the tapes and player. See ªCare of
Your Cassette Tape Playerº in the Index.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can't be
corrected, contact your dealer.CD Adapter Kits
It is possible to use a portable CD player adapter kit
with your cassette tape player after activating the
bypass feature on your tape player.
To activate the bypass feature, perform the
following steps:
1. Turn the ignition to RUN or ACCESSORY.
2. Turn the radio off.
3. Press and hold the SOURCE button for
five seconds. The tape symbol on the display
will flash for two seconds, indicating the feature
is active.
4. Insert the adapter into the cassette slot. It will
power up the radio and begin playing.
This override routine will remain active until the eject
button is pressed.
