Always handle discs by their edges only. Clean the disc with an approved
CD cleaner only, wiping from the center of the disc toward the edge. Do
not clean in a circular motion.
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended
periods of time.
MP3 Track and Folder Structure
Audio systems capable of recognizing and playing MP3 individual tracks
and folder structures work as follows:
•There are two different modes for MP3 disc playback: MP3 track
mode (system default) and MP3 folder mode.
•MP3 track mode ignores any folder structure on the MP3 disc. The
player numbers each MP3 track on the disc (noted by the .mp3 file
extension) from T001 to a maximum of T255.Note:The maximum
number of playable MP3 files may be less depending on the structure
of the CD and exact model of radio present.
•MP3 folder mode represents a folder structure consisting of one level
of folders. The CD player numbers all MP3 tracks on the disc (noted
by the .mp3 file extension) and all folders containing MP3 files, from
F001 (folder) T001 (track) to F253 T255.
•Creating discs with only one level of folders helps with navigation
through the disc files.
If you are burning your own MP3 discs, it is important to understand
how the system reads the structures you create. While various files may
be present, (files with extensions other than mp3), only files with the
.mp3 extension are played; other files are ignored by the system. This
enables you to use the same MP3 disc for a variety of tasks on your work
computer, home computer and your in-vehicle system.
In track mode, the system displays and plays the structure as if it were
only one level deep (all .mp3 files are played, regardless of being in a
specific folder). In folder mode, the system only plays the .mp3 files in
the current folder.

MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROL
A.Fan speed control:Controls the volume of air circulated in your
vehicle. Adjust to select the desired fan speed or switch off. If you
switch the fan off, the windshield may fog up.
B.Recirculated air:Press to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, the button illuminates
and the air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates. This
can reduce the time needed to cool the interior and reduce unwanted
odors from entering your vehicle.
C.Temperature control:Controls the temperature of the air circulated
in your vehicle. Adjust to select the desired temperature. If you select
MAX A/C, the system distributes recirculated air through the instrument
panel air vents. This mode is more economical and efficient than normal
air conditioning.
Note:When the temperature control is in the MAX A/C position, neither
the air conditioning or recirculated air can be turned off.
D.Air conditioning:Press to switch the air conditioning on or off. Air
conditioning cools your vehicle using outside air. To improve air
conditioning when starting your vehicle, drive with the windows slightly
open for two to three minutes.

ECO MODE
This system assists the driver in driving more efficiently by constantly
monitoring characteristics of gear changing, anticipation of traffic
conditions and speeds while driving.
The value of these characteristics is represented by petals shown in the
display, with five petals being the most efficient. The more efficiently you
drive, the better the rating, and the better your overall fuel economy.
Note:These efficiency values do not result in a defined fuel
consumption figure. It might vary as it is not only related to these driving
habits, but also influenced by many other factors such as short trips and
cold starts.
Note:Frequent short trips, where the engine does not fully warm up,
will also increase fuel consumption.
The system is accessed using the information display control. Refer to
the trip computer table in theInformation Displayschapter.

Gear shifting
To improve fuel economy, use the highest gear appropriate for the road
conditions.
Anticipation
Adjust your vehicle speed and the distance to other vehicles to avoid the
need for heavy braking or acceleration to improve fuel economy.
Efficient speed
Reduce your cruising speed on open roads to improve economy. Higher
speeds use more fuel.

dollies, car-hauling trailer, or flatbed transport vehicle), it can be
flat-towed (all wheels on the ground, regardless of the
powertrain/transmission configuration) under the following conditions:
•The vehicle is facing forward so that it is towed in a forward
direction.
•The transmission is placed in positionN.SeeAutomatic
