Comfort Controls
This section tells you how to make your air system work
for you.
Climate Control Panel
Your vehicle is equipped with a dual-zone electronic
climate control system. This system can automatically
adjust and control temperature, fan speed, air delivery
mode, air conditioning operation and air intake. You can
use the AUTO (automatic) setting or override the
automatic operation by manually altering the controls.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Climate Control
Personalization feature, you will be able to programyour preferred climate control settings by using your
remote keyless entry transmitter. See ªclimate control
personalizationº in the Index.
AUTO: The AUTO button will turn on the system
and automatically adjust the fan blower speed, air
delivery mode and temperature to your previously
programmed settings.
TEMP: This knob adjusts the air temperature coming
through the system. Turn the TEMP knob clockwise to
increase the temperature and counterclockwise to
decrease the temperature. You may also press the TEMP
knob to turn the system on and off. (You can turn the
comfort control system on by pressing any button on the
panel. The passenger's TEMP knob only turns off the
system of the passenger's side.) Once the system is
turned off, fresh air will continue to flow through the
vehicle, and the system will try to maintain the
previously set temperature.
Driver's Side Temperature Knob
You can control the temperature of the driver's side
independently from the passenger's side. Turn the
driver's side TEMP knob clockwise to increase the
temperature and counterclockwise to decrease
the temperature.

Passenger's Side Temperature Knob
The right front passenger can control the temperature of
air for both the front passenger and rear seat area. (The
passenger's and driver's knob adjust from 60 F (16 C)
to 90 F (32 C) independent of each other. It is
suggested, however, that the passenger's setting stay no
more than four degrees warmer or cooler in temperature
from the driver's setting.) To turn the system on, press
the passenger's side TEMP knob. Turn the passenger's
side TEMP knob clockwise to increase the temperature
and counterclockwise to decrease the temperature. Press
the passenger's side TEMP knob again to turn off the
passenger's side system. If the passenger's side is turned
off, the driver's side will control the temperature of the
entire vehicle.
Automatic Operation
When the system is set for automatic operation, sensors
will control the air delivery mode. Air will come from
the floor, the instrument panel or windshield outlets.
The fan speed will vary as the system maintains the
selected temperature setting.
Be careful not to put anything over the electronic solar
sensors located near the ends of the instrument panel
near the windshield. These sensors are used by the
automatic system to regulate temperature.To find your comfort zone, start with the 75F (24C)
setting and allow about 30 minutes for the system to
regulate. Turn the TEMP knob to adjust the temperature
if necessary. If you choose 60F (16C), the system
will remain at that maximum cooling setting and will
not regulate fan speed. If you choose 90F (32C),
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 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 (A/C 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 outlets
for a few seconds. This is normal. This is to remove hot
air from the air outlets. As the air is cooled, the airflow
will move through the air conditioning outlets.

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 its controls, to be sure you're getting the
most out of the advanced engineering that went into it.
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.
AM-FM Stereo with Cassette Tape and
Compact Disc Player
Playing the Radio
PWR/VOL: Press this knob lightly to turn the system
on. Press the knob again to turn the system off. To
increase volume, turn the knob clockwise. Turn it
counterclockwise to decrease volume.
HR or MN: Display the time with the ignition off by
pressing this button.

Setting the Tone
TONE: Press and release this button until the desired
tone control (BASS, TREBLE or MIDRANGE) is
found. The radio keeps separate tone settings for each
band, each preset and each source.
LEVEL: After selecting the desired tone control, press
the plus (+) or minus (
-) symbol on this button to select
the desired level.
To save the tone settings for your presets, press and hold
the numbered button for the desired preset for more than
two seconds until you hear a beep.
Adjusting the Speakers
SPEAKER: Press and release this button until the
desired BALANCE or FADE control is found.
LEVEL: After selecting the desired BALANCE or
FADE control, press the plus (+) or minus (
-) symbol
on this button to select the desired level.
Playing a Cassette Tape
With the radio on, insert a cassette tape. The tape will
begin playing as soon as it is inserted. When one side of
your cassette tape is done playing, auto reverse plays theother side of your cassette tape. Cassette tapes may be
loaded with the radio off but they will not start playing
until the radio is on. If you want to insert a cassette tape
when the ignition is off, first press the eject button.
While the tape is playing, use the VOL, TONE, LEVEL,
and SPEAKER controls just as you do for the radio.
Other controls may have different functions when a tape
is inserted. The display will show an underlined tape
symbol. TAPE PLAY will appear on the display when a
tape is playing, with an arrow to indicate which side of
the tape is playing.
If an error occurs while trying to play a cassette tape, it
could be that:
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.)

Your radio can store home and away presets. Home and
away presets allow you to use one set of preset radio
settings in the area where you live, and another set when
you go out of town. That way, you will not need to
reprogram your presets every time you travel. With the
radio off and the clock displayed, use FF and RW to
select home or away presets. To select the away presets,
press and hold FF for five counts until you hear a beep.
The next time the radio comes on, the away presets will
be active. To select the home presets, press and hold RW
for five counts until you hear a beep. The next time the
radio comes on, the home presets will be active.
When battery power is removed and later applied, you
will not have to reset your home radio presets because
the radio remembers them. However, you will have to
reset your away radio presets.Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCK is designed to discourage theft of your
radio. Your vehicle has a ªbuilt
-inº theft-deterrent
feature on each radio that is automatic
-- there is no
programming required. The radio in your vehicle cannot
be used in any other vehicle. When the radio was
originally installed in your vehicle at the factory, it
stored the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Each
time the ignition is turned on, the VIN is verified. If the
vehicle's VIN does not match the VIN stored in the
radio, THEFTLOCK will be activated and the audio
system will not play. If the radio is removed from your
vehicle, the original VIN in the radio can be used to
trace the radio back to your vehicle.
