AUTO (Automatic Air Delivery Mode):Turn the
air delivery mode knob to AUTO for the system to
automatically control the direction of the airow to help
reach the desired inside temperature.
The system automatically controls the air inlet to supply
the outside air or recirculated inside air needed to cool
the vehicle faster. The indicator light on the recirculation
button will be lit whenever the system changes to
recirculation. Press the recirculation button to change
to outside air. However, the recirculation mode may
turn back on automatically.
In cold weather, if the fan and air delivery modes are
in automatic, the system starts at lower fan speeds to
avoid directing cold air into the vehicle until warmer air is
available. The climate control system directs air to the
oor, but may automatically change modes as the vehicle
warms up to maintain the chosen temperature setting.
The length of time needed to warm the interior depends
on the outside temperature and inside temperature of
the vehicle.Manual Operation
It is best to use the automatic settings to maximize fuel
economy.
To change the current fan speed, turn the left knob.
A(Fan):Turn the left knob clockwise to increase
the fan speed or counterclockwise to decrease the
fan speed. To turn the fan off, turn the left knob to
the
9position. In any setting other than off, the fan
runs continuously with the ignition on. The fan must be
turned on to run the air conditioning compressor. There
will be some airow noticeable from the various outlets
when driving, even with the fan in the off position.
This is to ensure some fresh air is always available
in the vehicle. To turn off the air completely, turn the
fan to
9and select the recirculation button.
Temperature Control:Select the desired cabin air
temperature between 60-90°F (16-32°C). Typically,
the best setting is near 75°F (23°C). Choosing the
coldest or warmest temperature setting does not
cause the system to heat or cool any faster.

Using the Auxiliary Input Jack
Your radio system has an auxiliary input jack located on
the lower right side of the faceplate. This is not an audio
output; do not plug the headphone set into the front
auxiliary input jack. An external audio device such as an
iPod, laptop computer, MP3 player, CD changer, etc. can
be connected to the auxiliary input jack for use as another
audio source.
Drivers are encouraged to set up any auxiliary device
while the vehicle is in PARK (P). SeeDefensive Driving
on page 4-3for more information on driver distraction.
To use a portable audio player, connect a 3.5 mm
(1/8 inch) cable to the radio’s front auxiliary input jack.
When a device is connected, press the radio CD/AUX
button to begin playing audio from the device over
the vehicle speakers.

Steering in Emergencies
There are times when steering can be more effective
than braking. For example, you come over a hill and
nd a truck stopped in your lane, or a car suddenly
pulls out from nowhere, or a child darts out from
between parked cars and stops right in front of you.
You can avoid these problems by braking — if you
can stop in time. But sometimes you cannot; there is
not room. That is the time for evasive action — steering
around the problem.
Your vehicle can perform very well in emergencies
like these. First apply the brakes. SeeBraking on
page 4-5. It is better to remove as much speed as
you can from a possible collision. Then steer around
the problem, to the left or right depending on the
space available.An emergency like this requires close attention and a
quick decision. If you are holding the steering wheel
at the recommended 9 and 3 o’clock positions, you can
turn it a full 180 degrees very quickly without removing
either hand. But you have to act fast, steer quickly,
and just as quickly straighten the wheel once you have
avoided the object.
The fact that such emergency situations are always
possible is a good reason to practice defensive driving
at all times and wear safety belts properly.
