Exterior Lamps
The exterior lamp control is located to the left of the
steering wheel on the multifunction lever.
O(Exterior Lamp Control):Turn the band with this
symbol on it to operate the exterior lamps.
The exterior lamp band has four positions:
O(Off):Turning the band to this position turns off all
lamps.
AUTO (Automatic):Turning the band to this position
sets the exterior lamps in automatic mode.
;(Parking Lamp):Turning the band to this position
turns on the parking lamps together with the following:
·Sidemarker Lamps
·Taillamps

turns on the headlamps, together with the previously
listed lamps and lights.

?(Recirculation):Press this button to turn the
recirculation mode on or off. The air-conditioning
compressor also comes on. This mode keeps outside
air from coming in the vehicle. It can be used to prevent
outside air and odors from entering your vehicle or to
help cool the air inside your vehicle more quickly.
Recirculation is not available in defrost or
¯oor/defog mode.
Using recirculation for long periods of time may cause
the air inside your vehicle to become too dry. To prevent
this from happening, after the air in your vehicle has
cooled, turn the recirculation mode off.
Sensors
There are sensors to measure the temperature and
sun's effect on passenger comfort.
The solar sensor on your vehicle monitors the solar
radiation then uses the information to maintain the
selected temperature when operating in AUTO mode by
initiating needed adjustments to the temperature, the
fan speed and the air delivery system. The system may
also supply cooler air to the side of the vehicle facing
the sun. The recirculation mode will also be activated, as
necessary. Do not cover the solar sensor located on
the top right side of the instrument panel near the
windshield or system will not work properly.There is also a sensor located behind the front bumper.
This sensor reads the outside air temperature and
helps maintain the temperature inside the vehicle. The
outside temperature will be displayed in the navigation
system only when the engine is running. Any cover
on the front of the vehicle could give a false reading of
the temperature.
If the outside temperature goes up, the display
temperature will not change until:
·The vehicle's speed is above 10 mph (16 km/h) for
®ve minutes.
·The vehicle's speed is above 32 mph (51 km/h) for
two and one-half minutes.
These delays prevent false readings. If the temperature
goes down, the outside temperature will be shown
when you start the vehicle. If it has been turned off for
less than three hours, the temperature will be recalled
from the previous vehicle operation.
There is also an inside temperature sensor located to
the left of the ignition button. The automatic climate
control system uses this sensor to receive information,
so if you block or cover it, the system will not function
properly.
