If you are driving through a parking garage,
overcast weather, or a tunnel, the automatic
headlamp system may turn on the low-beam
headlamps at a normal brightness along with the
taillamps, sidemarker, parking lamps and the
instrument panel lights. The radio lights will be
dimmer, and the instrument panel cluster
lights may dim. There will be a delay before the
lights will turn on when starting the car at night.
Fog Lamps
-(Fog Lamps):Turn the band on the turn
signal/multifunction lever to the fog lamp symbol to
turn the fog lamps on. They will come on only
when the headlamps are on low beam.
Some localities have laws that require the
headlamps to be on along with the fog lamps.
Instrument Panel Brightness
The instrument panel
brightness control is
located to the left of the
steering wheel on the
instrument panel.
Turn the wheel on the
left of the control
up or down to increase
or decrease brightness.
Turn the wheel all the way up for the maximum
setting. It is recommended that the brightness level
be kept at the maximum setting for all daytime
driving to ensure proper visibility.
The brightness of the instrument panel lights will
decrease when the headlamps are on.

To change the current mode, select one of the
following:
H(Vent):Air is directed to the upper instrument
panel outlets.
)(Bi-Level):Air is directed to the upper
instrument panel outlets, and to the oor outlets.
6(Floor):Air is directed to the oor outlets
and to the outboard outlets (for the side windows).
?(Recirculation):Press this button, located
in the center of the instrument panel to the
left of the audio system, to turn the recirculation
mode on or off. This mode recirculates the
air inside the vehicle. It can be used to prevent
outside air and odors from entering your vehicle or
to help heat or cool the air inside your vehicle
more quickly. When the button is pressed,
an indicator light in the button comes on. Press
the button again to turn off recirculate and to
circulate outside air through the system.
The indicator light will go off. Recirculate is
automatically turned off when the climate control
system mode knob is turned to defog or defrost or
is between modes.Temperature Control:Turn the right knob
clockwise or counterclockwise to increase or
decrease the temperature inside the vehicle.
A/C (Air Conditioning):Press this button, located
in the center of the instrument panel to the left
of the audio system, to turn the air-conditioning
system on or off. When A/C is pressed, an
indicator light in the button comes on to let you
know that the air conditioning is activated.
MAX A/C (Maximum Air Conditioning):Press
the A/C and recirculation buttons at the same time
to select MAX A/C.
On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside
air escape; then close them. This helps to reduce
the time it takes for the vehicle to cool down. It
also helps the system to operate more efficiently.
The air-conditioning system removes moisture
from the air, so you might notice a small amount
of water dripping underneath your vehicle
while idling or after turning off the engine.
This is normal.
153

Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high
humidity (moisture) condensing on the cool window
glass. This can be minimized if the climate control
system is used properly. There are two modes to
clear fog or frost from the windshield. Use the defog
mode to clear the inside of the windshield of fog or
moisture and warm the passengers. Use the defrost
mode to remove fog or frost from the outside of the
windshield more quickly.
-(Defog):Air is directed between the
windshield, side windows, instrument panel outlets
and the oor outlets. The air-conditioning
compressor will run automatically in this setting
without pressing A/C, unless the outside
temperature is at or below 32°F (0°C).
1(Defrost):Air is directed to the windshield,
instrument panel outlets and the side windows.
The air-conditioning compressor will run
automatically in this setting without pressing A/C,
unless the outside temperature is at or below
32°F (0°C).
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows
are clear.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
clear fog from the rear window.
The rear window
defogger button is
located on the center of
the instrument panel,
above the audio system.
The defogger does
not operate with the rear
liftglass opened.
The rear window defogger will only work when the
ignition is in the ON position.
=(Rear Defogger):Press the defogger button
to turn the rear window defogger on or off. An
indicator light in the button comes on to let
you know that the rear window defogger is
activated. Be sure to clear as much snow from
the rear window as possible.
