3-4
If your vehicle is sitting out on a hot day and you have it
set on AUTO, the air will first flow out 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 air conditioning outlets.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system
will start at reduced fan speeds until warm air is
available. The length of reduction depends on the
outside air temperature, engine coolant temperature or
the time since the engine was last started. As the coolant
warms up, the blower fan speed will gradually increase
and air will flow from the heater outlets, with some
airflow to the windshield to prevent fogging under most
normal conditions. If you select defrost mode or a
manual fan speed, this function will be skipped.
If you leave your vehicle, the system will remember
the control setting the next time you start your engine,
except for recirculation and defrost. Each ignition cycle
cancels recirculation. Defrost will change to automatic
operation when the ignition is shut off and then turned
back on.Manual Operation
You may manually adjust the air delivery mode, fan
speed, air input and compressor operation using the
following controls.
DEFROST (FRONT): 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.
RECIRCULATION: Press this button to limit
the amount of fresh air entering your vehicle. This is
helpful when you are trying to cool the air quickly or
limit odors entering your vehicle. In the AUTO mode,
the system will use recirculation as necessary to cool
the air. Pressing the recirculation button will change the
operation to a manual mode and the air will recirculate
non
-stop. Press this button again to turn off the
recirculation feature. If you notice the windows fogging,
press the recirculation button to exit the recirculation
mode. Recirculation is not available in the defrost mode.

3-10 HVAC Steering Wheel Controls
Some heating and cooling
controls can be adjusted at
the steering wheel. Other
touch controls operate some
audio controls. See ªAudio
Steering Wheel Controlsº
in the Index.
TEMP: Press the up arrow on the control to increase the
temperature and the down arrow to decrease temperature.
FAN: Press the up arrow on the control to increase the
fan speed and the down arrow to decrease fan speed.
Climate Control Personalization
(If Equipped)
With this feature, your vehicle will recall the latest
climate control settings as adjusted the last time your
vehicle was operated. These settings include the set
temperatures for driver and passenger, air conditioning,
mode and fan speed. (This feature does not recall
recirculation or defrost modes.) This feature allows two
different drivers to store and recall their own climate
control settings. The settings recalled by the climate
control system are determined by which Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (ª1º or ª2º) was
used to enter the vehicle. The number on the back of the
RKE transmitter corresponds to driver 1 or to driver 2.
After any button is pressed on the RKE transmitter or
the key is placed in the ignition, the climate control
settings will automatically adjust to where they were last
set. The settings can also be changed by briefly pressing
buttons 1 or 2 located on the driver's door.

cannot turn the hubs of the tape. Hold the cassette
tape with the open end down and try turning the
