Outside Temperature Display
The outside temperature is always displayed when your
vehicle is running. You can change it from Fahrenheit to
Celsius by pressing the ENG/MET (English/metric)
button on the left side of the instrument panel cluster.
The outside temperature sensor is located near the front
grille. The sensor can be affected by road or engine heat
during idling, slow driving or when the engine is first
started after a short trip. In order to ensure proper
automatic climate control operation, the outside air
temperature display may not update as quickly as
expected. This is to allow the air surrounding the outside
temperature sensor to be as close to the actual outside
conditions as possible. This is determined by how much
time has elapsed since the vehicle has been turned off
and by vehicle speed.
Mode Button
Press the MODE button to deliver air through the floor,
middle or windshield outlets. The system will stay in the
selected mode until the MODE button is pressed again.
Press the up or down arrow to cycle through the
available modes.Automatic Operation
When the system is set for automatic operation, sensors
will control the air delivery mode. Air will come from
the floor, middle or windshield outlets. The fan speed
will vary as the system maintains the selected
temperature setting.
Be careful not to put anything over the solar sensor
located in the middle of the instrument panel near the
windshield. This sensor is used by the automatic system
to regulate temperature.
To find your comfort zone, start with the 75
F (24
C)
setting and allow about 30 minutes for the system to
regulate. Turn the knob to adjust the temperature if
necessary. If you choose 60
F (16
C), the system will
remain at that maximum cooling setting and will not
regulate fan speed. If you choose the temperature of
90
F (32
C), the system will remain at that maximum
heating setting and will not regulate fan speed. Choosing
either maximum setting will not cause the system to heat
or cool any faster.

3-6 Electronic Solar Sensor
The sensor monitors the sun's solar radiation and is
located on top of the instrument panel near the
windshield. The ECC panel uses this information to
automatically make the necessary temperature and
airflow adjustments to maintain your comfort.
Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed
for the air conditioner to work its best.
Press the AUTO button or the TEMP knob to turn the
system on. The system will cool and dehumidify the air
inside the vehicle. Also while in the AUTO mode, the
system will use recirculation as necessary to cool the air.
You may also need to adjust the interior temperature and
the fan speed as needed.
When the air conditioner is on, you may sometimes
notice slight changes in your vehicle's engine speed
and power. This is normal because the system is
designed to cycle the compressor on and off to keep the
desired temperature.
Heating
Press the MODE button to select heater. Adjust the
interior temperature to a comfortable level and if the fan
speed needs adjusting, press the up or down arrow.
Outside air will be brought in and sent through the floor,
air conditioning or bi
-level outlets (depending on the
condition). The heater works best if you keep your
windows closed while using it.
