NOTICE:
Modifications made to the engine, transaxle,
exhaust, intake or fuel system of your vehicle or
the replacement of the original tires with other
than those of the same Tire Performance Criteria
(TPC) can affect your vehicle's emission controls
and may cause the SERVICE ENGINE SOON or
CHECK ENGINE light to come on.
Modifications to these systems could lead to
costly repairs not covered by your warranty. This
may also result in a failure to pass a required
Emission Inspection/Maintenance test.
This light should come on, as a check to show you it is
working, when the ignition is on and the engine is not
running. If the light doesn't come on, have it repaired.
This light will also come on during a malfunction in one
of two ways:
Light Flashing
-- A misfire condition has been
detected. A misfire increases vehicle emissions and
may damage the emission control system on your
vehicle. Dealer or qualified service center diagnosis
and service may be required.
Light On Steady
-- An emission control system
malfunction has been detected on your vehicle.
Dealer or qualified service center diagnosis and
service may be required.

If the Light Is Flashing
The following may prevent more serious damage to
your vehicle:
Reducing vehicle speed.
Avoiding hard accelerations.
Avoiding steep uphill grades.
If you are towing a trailer, reduce the amount of
cargo being hauled as soon as it is possible.
If the light stops flashing and remains on steady, see ªIf
the Light Is On Steadyº following.
If the light continues to flash, when it is safe to do so,
stop the vehicle. Find a safe place to park your vehicle.
Turn the key off, wait at least 10 seconds and restart the
engine. If the light remains on steady, see ªIf the Light
Is On Steadyº following. If the light is still flashing,
follow the previous steps, and drive the vehicle to your
dealer or qualified service center for service.If the Light Is On Steady
You may be able to correct the emission system
malfunction by considering the following:
Did you recently put fuel into your vehicle?
If so, reinstall the fuel cap, making sure to fully install
the cap. See ªFilling Your Tankº in the Index. The
diagnostic system can determine if the fuel cap has been
left off or improperly installed. A loose or missing fuel
cap will allow fuel to evaporate into the atmosphere. A
few driving trips with the cap properly installed should
turn the light off.
Did you just drive through a deep puddle of water?
If so, your electrical system may be wet. The condition
will usually be corrected when the electrical system
dries out. A few driving trips should turn the light off.
Are you low on fuel?
As your engine starts to run out of fuel, your engine may
not run as efficiently as designed since small amounts of
air are sucked into the fuel line causing a misfire. The
system can detect this. Adding fuel should correct this
condition. Make sure to install the fuel cap properly. See
ªFilling Your Tankº in the Index. It will take a few
driving trips to turn the light off.

CHECK TIRE PRESSURE - 144 :This message is
displayed when the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) system
detects a low or high tire pressure condition in one or
more of the road tires. By pressing the INFO button up
or down, the DIC display will show which tire or tires
do not have the correct inflation pressure. AªLOW
TIREº condition exists when the tire's air pressure is
under 25 psi (172 kPa) and a ªHIGH TIREº condition
exists when the tire's air pressure is above 38 psi
(262 kPa). The system will display the air pressure, the
tire location (LF, RF, RR or LR) and if the air pressure is
low or high. The tire pressure information is available in
English or metric measurements. For example, a driver's
side front tire that is low may be shown as: 22 PSI LF
TIRE LOW.
The correct tire inflation pressure should be set to
those shown on the Tire Loading
-Information
Label, located on the rear edge of the driver's door.
For more information regarding proper tire inflation,
seeªInflation
-- Tire Pressureº in the Index. If a tire
is low, you should stop as soon as possible and inspect
your tire(s) for damage. If a tire is flat, see ªIf a Tire
Goes Flatº in the Index.Once the TPM system detects the low or high tire
pressure condition, the message ªCHECK TIRE
PRESSUREº will be displayed whenever you start the
engine. To remove or clear the CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE message, you will need to set the tire(s) to
the proper tire pressure. See ªInflation
-- Tire Pressureº
in the Index.
CAUTION:
When the CHECK TIRE PRESSURE message is
displayed on the Driver Information Center and
the tire pressure is low, your vehicle handling
capabilities will be reduced during severe
maneuvers. If you drive too fast, you could lose
control of your vehicle. You or others could be
injured. Don't drive over 55 mph (90 km/h) when
the tire pressure is low. Drive cautiously and
correct the tire pressure as soon as you can.

URPA can detect objects 3 inches (7.6 cm) and wider,
and at least 10 inches (25.4 cm) tall, but it cannot detect
objects that are above trunk level. In order for the rear
sensors to recognize an object, it must be within
operating range.
If the URPA system is not functioning properly, the
display will flash red, indicating that there is a problem.
The light will also flash red while driving if a trailer is
attached to your vehicle, or a bicycle or object is on
the back of, or hanging out of your trunk. The light
will continue to flash until the trailer or the object is
removed and your vehicle is driven forward at
least 15 mph (25 km/h).
It may also flash red if the ultrasonic sensors are not
kept clean. So be sure to keep your rear bumper free of
mud, dirt, snow, ice and slush or materials such as paint
or the system may not work properly. If after cleaning
the rear bumper and driving forward at least 15 mph
(25 km/h), the display continues to flash red, see your

Comfort Controls
This section tells you how to make your air system work
for you.
Climate Control Panel
Your vehicle is equipped with an electronic climate
control system. This system can automatically adjust
and control temperature, fan speed, air delivery mode,
air conditioning operation and air intake. You can use
the AUTO (automatic) setting or override the automatic
operation by manually adjusting the controls. If your
vehicle is equipped with the climate control
personalization feature, you will be able to recall your
preferred climate control settings using your remote
keyless entry transmitter. See ªClimate Control
Personalizationº in the Index.Manual Operation
To turn the system on, press the knob located on the left
side of the climate control panel.
~MODE!: Press MODE to deliver air through the
floor, instrument panel or windshield outlets. The
system will stay in the selected mode until MODE is
pressed again. The current mode is displayed on the
climate control panel when MODE is pressed. Press the
up or down arrow to cycle through the following modes:
(Upper): This setting directs the airflow
through the instrument panel outlets.
(Bi-Level): This setting directs airflow into
your vehicle in two ways. Cooler air is directed to
the upper portion of your body through the four
instrument panel outlets while warmer air is directed
to the floor.
(Floor/Defrost): This setting directs airflow to
the floor outlets and toward the windshield.
(Floor): This setting directs airflow through
the floor outlets. Some air is diverted to the
windshield to minimize fogging.

!~(Fan): This switch adjusts the fan speed. Press the
up arrow to increase fan speed and the down arrow to
decrease it.
(Recirculation): Press this button to limit the
amount of outside air entering your vehicle. This is
helpful when you are trying to cool the air quickly or
limit odors entering your vehicle. Press this button again
to turn off the recirculation feature. If you notice the
windows fogging, turn off the recirculation feature.
Recirculation is not available in the defrost mode.
FRONT (Defrost): Press this button to quickly
remove fog or frost from the windshield. This setting
sends most of the airflow to the windshield with only a
small amount to the floor outlets. The air conditioning
compressor will operate in this mode.
A/C (Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn the
air conditioning compressor on and off. The system will
cool and dehumidify the air inside the vehicle. A/C
cannot be turned off in defrost mode.PASS OFF (Passenger's Climate Control): Pressing
this button will turn off or on the climate controls for the
passengers. When this feature is active, the driver's
climate control settings are used for both the front and
rear seating areas.
Driver's Temperature Knob: The knob located on the
left side of the climate control panel is used to adjust the
air temperature coming through the system for the
driver's side of the vehicle while the passenger's side
controls are active. Turn the knob clockwise to increase
the temperature displayed on the climate control panel,
or turn the knob counterclockwise to decrease the
temperature. Press the knob to turn the climate control
system off.
~PASS TEMP! (Passenger's Temperature): This
switch is used to increase or decrease the temperature of
the air for the right front passenger independent of the
driver's setting.

Automatic Operation
AUTO: This button is used to select the automatic
operation of the climate control system. When the
automatic operation is active, AUTO will appear on
the display.
A sensor will control the air delivery mode. Air will
come from the floor, the instrument panel or windshield
outlets. The fan speed and use of air conditioning
will vary as the system maintains the selected
temperature setting.
Do not cover the electronic solar sensor located on top
of the instrument panel near the windshield. The sensor
is used by the automatic system to regulate temperature.
See ªElectronic Solar Sensorº later in this section for
more information.
To find your comfort zone, start with the 75F (24C)
setting and allow about 30 minutes for the system to
regulate. Turn the driver's temperature knob to adjust
the temperature if necessary. If you choose 60F
(16C), the system will remain at that maximum cooling
setting and will not regulate fan speed. If you choose
90F (32C), 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.In cold weather, when the system senses the need for
heat, the airflow will be directed out of the floor outlets.
As the interior temperature approaches the desired
setting, the fan speed will decrease. To maintain interior
comfort, the airflow may move to the instrument panel
air outlets and floor outlets (bi
-level mode). On bright
sunny days in cold weather, the airflow may come out of
the instrument panel outlets in A/C mode to maintain
comfort and prevent stuffiness.
When the automatic setting is active, the air
conditioning compressor cycles when needed to cool the
air. If your vehicle is sitting out on a hot day and AUTO
is active, the air will first flow out of the floor outlets for
a few seconds. This is normal. This is to remove hot air
from the air outlets. As the air is cooled, the airflow will
move through the instrument panel outlets. If you start
your vehicle with the fan setting on HI, it will skip the
air conditioning purge and the system will be in
manual mode.
