Temperature Control:Turn the center knob
clockwise or counterclockwise to increase
or decrease the temperature inside your vehicle.
When it’s cold outside 0°F (−18°C) or lower,
use the engine coolant heater, if the vehicle has
one, to warm air faster in your vehicle. An
engine coolant heater warms the engine coolant
that is used to warm the inside of your vehicle. For
more information, seeEngine Coolant Heater on
page 128.
#(Air Conditioning):Press this button to turn
the air conditioning system on or off. When
the air conditioning button is pressed, an indicator
light comes on to indicate that the air conditioning
is activated.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from
the air, so sometimes a small amount of water drips
underneath the vehicle while it is idling or after the
engine is turned off. This is normal.
Maximum Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside
air escape; then close them. This helps to reduce
the time it takes for your vehicle to cool down.
It also helps the system to operate more efficiently.For quick cool down on hot days, do the following:
1. Select the
Cvent mode.
2. Select the highest fan speed.
3. Select
#air conditioning.
4. Select the
?recirculation mode.
5. Select the coolest temperature.
Using these settings together for long periods of
time can cause the air inside of your vehicle
to become too dry. To prevent this from
happening, after the air in your vehicle has cooled,
turn the recirculation mode off.
If your vehicle has the remote start feature, it will
turn on using the last settings selected on the
climate control before the vehicle was turned off.
The fan and air delivery knobs can be used during
remote start. The buttons will not work until the
ignition is turned on by the key.
The climate control system changes back to
manual operation when the vehicle key is
turned to ON.

Set up your audio system by presetting your
favorite radio stations, setting the tone, and
adjusting the speakers. Then, when driving
conditions permit, you can tune to your favorite
radio stations using the presets and steering
wheel controls if the vehicle has them.

to your vehicle, such as an audio system,
CD player, CB radio, mobile telephone,

added by checking with your dealer. Also,
check federal rules covering mobile radio and
telephone units. If sound equipment can be
added, it is very important to do it properly.

operation of your vehicle’s engine, radio, or
other systems, and even damage them.
Your vehicle’s systems may interfere with the

{CAUTION:
Adding only plain water to your cooling
system can be dangerous. Plain water, or
some other liquid such as alcohol, can
boil before the proper coolant mixture will.
Your vehicle’s coolant warning system is
set for the proper coolant mixture. With
plain water or the wrong mixture, your
engine could get too hot but you would
not get the overheat warning. Your engine
could catch re and you or others could
be burned. Use a 50/50 mixture of clean,
drinkable water and DEX-COOL
®coolant.
Notice:In cold weather, water can freeze and
crack the engine, radiator, heater core and
other parts. Use the recommended coolant
and the proper coolant mixture.
{CAUTION:
You can be burned if you spill coolant
on hot engine parts. Coolant contains
ethylene glycol and it will burn if the engine
parts are hot enough. Do not spill coolant
on a hot engine.
1. You can remove the coolant surge tank
pressure cap when the cooling system,
including the coolant surge tank pressure cap
and upper radiator hose, is no longer hot.
Turn the pressure cap slowly counterclockwise
about two or two and one-half turns.
If you hear a hiss, wait for that to stop. This
will allow any pressure still left to be vented out
the discharge hose.
