If you press the lock button on the transmitter a second
time while all the doors are closed, the system will
arm immediately. The system will still arm in 60 seconds
if a door is open. When the open door is closed,
the system will arm.
The security light, located on the instrument panel
cluster, comes on to indicate that arming has been
initiated. Once the system is armed, the security light
will ash once every three seconds.
If the security light is ashing twice per second, this
means that a door is open.
If the system is armed and the key is used to unlock
the vehicle, the alarm will be activated.
If you do not want to arm the content theft system,
lock the vehicle with the manual lock knob on the
doors or with the inside power door lock switches.
The alarm will sound and the exterior lights will ash
if any door is opened while armed.Disarming the System
To disarm the system, do one of the following:
Press the RKE transmitter unlock button.
Turn the ignition to ON/RUN.
If you want to lock the vehicle without arming the

door lock switches.
Once the system is disarmed, the security light will
stop ashing.
How the System Alarm is Activated
To activate the system if it is armed:
Open the driver’s door or trunk. A ten second
pre-alarm chirp will sound followed by a
thirty second full alarm of horn and lights.
Open any other door. A full alarm of horn and
lights will immediately sound for thirty seconds.
Open the hood. If the vehicle has the remote start
feature, it will activate the full alarm.
When an alarm event has nished, the system will
re-arm itself automatically.

fuel economy by limiting the effects of the air
conditioning. The warmer it is outside, the shorter
the time before the engine is restarted to provide
cabin cooling.
The climate control system is turned from Off to
Normal A/C or defrost SeeAutomatic Climate
Control System on page 3-19for more information.
The engine is required to run for either heater or
climate control performance. See “Air Conditioning

x(Delay):While the lever is in the intermittent
position, turn the intermittent adjust band with this
symbol on it up or down to select a shorter or longer
delay between wiping cycles. To the left of the
adjust band are bars, increasing in size from bottom to
top, that indicate the frequency of the wipes. Smaller
bars mean the wipers movement is less frequent.
Larger bars mean the movement is more frequent.
6(Low Speed):Move the lever up to the
rst setting past intermittent, for steady wiping at low
speed.
1(High Speed):Move the lever up to the second
setting past intermittent, for wiping at a high speed.
8(Mist):Move the lever all the way down to
this position for a single wiping cycle. Hold it there until
the windshield wipers start; then let go. The windshield
wipers stop after one wiping cycle. If additional
wiping cycles are needed, hold the lever down longer.
Damaged wiper blades can prevent you from seeing well
enough to drive safely. Clear ice and snow from the
wiper blades before using them to prevent damage.
If the wiper blades are frozen to the windshield, carefully
loosen or thaw them. If your blades do become
damaged, get new blades.Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor.
A circuit breaker stops the motor until it cools. Clear
away snow or ice to prevent an overload. If the motor
gets stuck, turn the wipers off, clear away the snow
or ice, and then turn the wipers back on.
As an added safety feature, if the wipers are on for
more than 15 seconds, the vehicle’s headlamps turn
on automatically. They turn off 15 seconds after
the wipers are turned off.
Windshield Washer
To wash the windshield, press the button at the end of
the lever until the washers begin.
{CAUTION:
In freezing weather, do not use your washer
until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the
washer uid can form ice on the windshield,
blocking your vision.
When the button is released, the washers stop,
but the wipers continue to wipe about three times
or resume the previous speed.

In AUTO mode the system cools and dehumidies the
air inside the vehicle. Also while in AUTO mode,
the system maximizes its performance by using
recirculation as necessary.
Heating:On cold days when using manual operation of
the automatic system, use oor mode to deliver air to
the oor outlets. To warm or cool the air delivered, push
the temperature buttons to the desired setting.
To use the automatic mode, turn the knob to AUTO and
adjust the temperature by pressing the temperature
buttons.
When the heater is in use, there might be slight noise or
vibration during Auto Stops. This is due to the coolant
circulation pump that continues to circulate heat through
the system during the engine Auto Stop.
The heater works best if the windows are kept closed.
h(Recirculation):Press the button to turn on
the recirculation mode. The air inside the vehicle
recirculates through the climate control system and the
vehicle, not from outside the vehicle. This mode is
helpful when trying to limit odors from entering
the vehicle and for maximum air conditioning
performance in hot weather. When the button ispressed, an indicator light above the button comes on.
The recirculation indicator light blinks three times if
recirculation is used in a mode in which it cannot
function. Only use this mode when it is needed for
comfort, since window fogging rapidly occurs if the air
conditioning compressor is not engaged.
Press this button to cancel the auto recirculation
feature. Each time the vehicle is started, the system
reverts to the auto recirculation function.
If recirculation is selected while in defrost, defog or oor
mode, the light on the button ashes three times and
then goes out to indicate that this is not allowed. This is
to prevent window fogging.
When the weather is cool or damp, operating the
system in recirculation for extended periods of time can
cause fogging of the vehicle’s windows. To clear the
fog, select either defog or defrost. Make sure the
air conditioning is on. Allow the air conditioning to run
automatically to help dehumidify the air.
N(Hybrid Air Conditioning):This setting balances
fuel economy and air conditioning comfort. When
hybrid A/C is used in warm weather, you may notice
more frequent auto stops and the cabin may be warmer
as compared to normal air conditioning.
