A high electrical load occurs when
several of the following are on,
such as: headlamps, high beams,
fog lamps, rear window defogger,
climate control fan at high speed,
heated seats, engine cooling fans,
trailer loads, and loads plugged into
accessory power outlets.
EPM works to prevent excessive
discharge of the battery. It does this
by balancing the generator’s output
and the vehicle’s electrical needs.
It can increase engine idle speed to
generate more power, whenever
needed. It can temporarily reduce
the power demands of some
accessories.Normally, these actions occur
in steps or levels, without being
noticeable. In rare cases at the
highest levels of corrective action,
this action may be noticeable to the
driver. If so, a Driver Information
Center (DIC) message might be
displayed, such as BATTERY
SAVER ACTIVE, BATTERY
VOLTAGE LOW, or LOW BATTERY.
If this message is displayed, it is
recommended that the driver reduce
the electrical loads as much as
possible. SeeDIC Warnings and
Messages on page 3-56.Battery Run-Down
Protection
This feature helps prevent the
battery from being drained, if the
interior courtesy lamps, reading/
map lamps, visor vanity lamps or
trunk lamp are accidentally left on.
If any of these lamps are left on,
they automatically turn off after
10 minutes, if the ignition is off.
The lamps will not come back on
again until one of the following
occurs:
The ignition is turned on.
The exterior lamps control is
turned off, then on again.
The headlamps will timeout after
10 minutes, if they are manually
turned on with the ignition on or off.

C. Air Delivery Mode Control
D. Air Conditioning
E. REAR (Rear Climate Control)
F. Recirculation
G. Rear Window Defogger
9(Off):Turn the fan control all the
way counterclockwise to turn the
front climate control system off.
9(Fan Control): Turn clockwise
or counterclockwise to increase
or decrease the fan speed. Temperature Control:
Turn
clockwise or counterclockwise
to increase or decrease the
temperature of the air owing
from the system.
Air Delivery Mode Control: Turn
clockwise or counterclockwise
to change the current airow mode.
By positioning the right knob
between two modes, a combination
of those two modes is selected.
H(Vent): Air is directed to
the instrument panel outlets.
)(Bi-Level): Air is divided
between the instrument panel and
oor outlets. Some air is directed
towards the windshield and side
window outlets. Cooler air is directed
to the upper outlets and warmer air
to the oor outlets.
Instrument Panel 3-19
ProCarManuals.com

6(Floor):Air is directed to the
oor outlets, with some of the air
directed to the windshield, side
window, and second row oor
outlets. In this mode, the system
automatically selects outside air.
Recirculation cannot be selected
while in oor mode.
-(Defog):This mode clears the
windows of fog or moisture. Air is
directed to the windshield, oor
outlets, and side window vents.
When this mode is selected, the
system turns off recirculation and
runs the air conditioning unless the
outside temperature is less than
40°F (4°C). Recirculation cannot be
selected while in the defog mode.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the
windows are clear.
0(Defrost):This mode quickly
clears the windshield of fog or frost.
Air is directed to the windshield
and side window vents, with some
to the oor vents. In this mode,
outside air is pulled inside the
vehicle. Recirculation cannot be
selected while in the defrost mode.
The air conditioning system runs
automatically in this setting, unless
the outside temperature is less
than 40°F (4°C). Do not drive
the vehicle until all the windows
are clear.
#(Air Conditioning):Press to
turn the air conditioning system on
or off. An indicator light comes on
when A/C is on. The air conditioning
system does not operate when
the outside temperature is below
40°F (4°C). The indicator light
ashes three times and turns off
when outside conditions affect
air conditioning operation.
This is normal.For quicker cool down on hot days:
1. Open the windows to let hot
air escape.
2. Select
Hmode.
3. Select
#.
4. Select the coolest temperature.
5. Select the highest fan speed.
6. Close the windows after the hot
air has escaped.
7. Once the vehicle’s interior
temperature is below the outside
temperature, select
@mode
for faster cooling.
Using recirculation for long periods
of time could cause the air inside
of the vehicle to become too dry.
To prevent this from happening, after
the inside of the vehicle has cooled,
turn the recirculation mode off.
3-20 Instrument Panel

The air conditioning system
removes moisture from the air, so
a small amount of water might drip
under the vehicle while idling or after
turning off the engine. This is normal.
@(Recirculation):Press to turn

It can be used to prevent outside air
and odors from entering the vehicle.The recirculation mode cannot be
used with oor, defrost, or defogging
modes. If recirculation is selected in
these modes, the indicator ashes
three times and turns off. The air
conditioning also comes on when
this mode is activated unless the
outside air temperature is less than
40°F (4°C). While in recirculation
