when driving, if the driver seat belt remains unbuckled,the Seat Belt Warning Light will flash or remain on
continuously. Refer toEnhanced Driver Seat Belt Re-
minder System (BeltAlert™)in the Occupant Restraints
section for more information.
21. Tire Pressure Monitor Warning Light — If
Equipped
This light will turn on when there is a Low tire
pressure condition. The light will also turn on
if a problem exist with any tire sensor. The light
will remain on until the tire pressure is prop-
erly set or the problem with the sensor is corrected.
This light will turn on momentarily as a bulb check when
the engine is started.
When the tire pressure monitoring system warning light
is lit, one or more of your tires is significantly underin-
flated. You should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure as
indicated on the tire and loading information placard.

interval. Pressing the STEP button when in this display
will select “Yes” or “No.”
Power Accessory Delay?
When this feature is selected, the power window
switches, radio, hands–free system, DVD video system,
power sunroof, and power outlets will remain active for
up to 45 seconds after the ignition switch has been turned
off. Opening a vehicle door or liftgate will cancel this
feature.
Easy Exit Seat? (Available with Memory Seat Only)
When this feature is selected, the driver’s seat moves
rearward 5 cm (2 inches) or to the farthest rearward
position if this distance is less than 5 cm (2 inches) when
the key is removed from the ignition switch so that thedriver can more easily exit the vehicle. The seat will
return to the memorized seat location (if REMOTE LINK
TO MEMORY is set to YES) when the remote keyless
entry transmitter is used to unlock the door. Pressing the
STEP button when in this display will select “Yes” or
“No.”
Retrain Tire Sensors (Available with Tire Pressure
Monitor System Only)

To replace the navigation map DVD lift the storage bin
cover and liner in the rear cargo area, press the eject
button and the disc will eject. Gently insert the new disc
into the DVD unit with the label facing up. The disc will
automatically be pulled into the DVD unit.
CLIMATE CONTROLS
The Air Conditioning and Heating System is designed to
make you comfortable in all types of weather.
Dual-Zone Automatic Temperature Control
The Dual Zone Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
System automatically maintains the interior comfort level
desired by the driver and front seat passenger. This is
accomplished by using two infrared sensors located in
the center of the instrument panel. The two infrared
sensors independently measure the surface temperature
of the driver and front seat passenger. Based on the
sensor input, the system automatically adjusts the airtemperature, the airflow volume, the airflow distribu-
tion, and amount of inside air recirculation to maintain
front seat occupant comfort, even under changing out-
side weather conditions.
To operate the system, press either theAUTO HIor
AUTO LObuttons. The system now automatically

Power Button
This button turns the entire system ON/OFF. When the
system is turned on it will return to the previous settings.
Dual/Single Zone Operation
WhenDUALis displayed in the ATC control unit, the
driver and passenger air outlet temperatures can be
individually adjusted from the two independentTEMP
buttons. When a front seat passenger is not present,
pressing theDUALbutton will disable the passenger’sinfrared sensor and control the entire system based only
on the driver’s temperature setting. The outside tempera-
ture will replace the passenger’s temperature setting in
the display. Pressing theDUALbutton a second time or
adjusting the passenger’sTEMPbutton will reactivate
the passenger’s infrared sensor and return the system to
dual independent temperature operation.
Manual Operation
This system offers a full complement of manual override
features. The indicator light in both theAUTO HIor
AUTO LObuttons will turn off when the system is
being used in the manual mode. The fan speed, airflow
distribution, and outside air/recirculated air can be
manually adjusted.

Improper alignment will not cause vehicle vibration.
Vibration may be a result of tire and wheel out-of-
balance. Proper balancing will reduce vibration and
avoid tire cupping and spotty wear.
ALL WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) — IF EQUIPPED
CAUTION!
All Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicles must have the same
size and type tires on all wheel positions. Unequal
tire sizes must not be used. Unequal tire size may
cause failure of the power transfer unit and/or the
viscous coupling.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM — IF
EQUIPPED
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPM) system uses
wireless technology with wheel rim mounted electronic
sensors to monitor tire pressure levels (EXCLUDING
THE SPARE TIRE). Sensors, mounted to each wheel as
part of the valve stem, transmit tire pressure readings to
the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) display
in the instrument cluster.
NOTE:It is particularly important, for you to check the
tire pressure in all of your tires regularly and too main-
tain the proper pressure.
When the appropriate conditions exist, the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) displays the following
messages.

CAUTION!
The TPM system has been optimized for the original
equipment tires and wheels. TPM system pressures
have been established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable system operation or sen-
sor damage may result when using replacement
equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or
style. After-market wheels can cause sensor damage.
Do not use tire sealant or balance beads if your
vehicle is equipped with a TPM system, as damage
to the sensors may result.
NOTE:
•The TPM system can inform the driver of a low tire
pressure condition of 25 psi [1.72 bars] (172 kPa) or
less, or high a tire pressure condition of 45 psi [3.10
bars] (310 kPa) or more.
•The TPM system is not intended to replace normal tire
care and maintenance, nor to provide warning of a tire
failure or condition.
•The TPM system should not be used as a tire pressure
gauge while adjusting your tire pressure.
•The TPM system must be retrained after a tire rotation
or wheel rim mounted sensor replacement. See your
authorized dealer for service.
CAUTION!
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure al-
ways reinstall the valve stem cap, if equipped. This
will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the
valve stem, which could damage the wheel rim
sensor.
