Climate Controls
Climate Control System
With this system you can control the heating,
cooling and ventilation for your vehicle.
Temperature Control:Turn the left knob
clockwise or counterclockwise to manually
increase or decrease the temperature inside your
vehicle. Turn the knob to the blue area for cool
air and to the red area for warm air.
9(Fan):Turn the middle knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the fan
speed. In any setting other than off, the fan
will run continuously with the ignition on. The fan
must be on in order for the air conditioning
compressor to run.Uplevel shown, Base similar, Hatchback only

On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside
air escape; then close them. This helps to reduce
the time it takes for your vehicle to cool down.
It also helps the system to operate more efficiently.
For quick cool down on hot days, do the
following:
1. Select the vent mode.
2. Select the highest fan speed.
3. Press the A/C button.
4. Select the recirculation mode.
5. Select the coolest temperature.
Using these settings together for long periods of
time may cause the air inside of your vehicle
to become too dry. To prevent this from
happening, after the air in your vehicle has cooled,
turn the recirculation mode off.
The air conditioning system removes moisture
from the air, so you may sometimes notice a small
amount of water dripping underneath your
vehicle while idling or after turning off the engine.
This is normal.Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high
humidity or moisture condensing on the cool
window glass. This can be minimized if the climate
control system is used properly. There are two
modes to clear fog or frost from your windshield.
Use the defog mode to clear the windows of
fog or moisture and warm the passengers. Use
the defrost mode to remove fog or frost from
the windshield more quickly.
For best results, clear all snow and ice from the
windshield before defrosting.
Select one of these available modes from the
right knob.
0(Defog):This mode directs most of the air to
the windshield and the floor outlets. A small
amount of air is also directed to the outboard
outlets for the side windows and to the instrument
panel side outlets. When you select this mode,
the system runs the air-conditioning compressor.
To defog the windows faster, turn the temperature
control knob clockwise to the warmest setting.
152

1(Defrost):This mode directs the air to the
windshield and the outboard outlets for the
side windows. A small amount of air is also
directed to the instrument panel side outlets. When
you select this mode, the system runs the
air-conditioning compressor. To defrost the
windows faster, turn the temperature control knob
clockwise to the warmest setting.
Do not drive the vehicle until all windows are clear.
Rear Window and Outside Mirror
Defogger
Your vehicle may have a rear window and outside
mirror defogger. This feature will only work
when the ignition is turned to ON.
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window.
Before using this feature, clear as much snow
from the rear window as possible.
<(Rear Window Defogger):Press this button
to turn the rear window and outside mirror
defogger on or off. An indicator light in the button
will come on to let you know that the feature is
activated.
If your vehicle does not have air conditioning, the
rear window defogger will remain on until the
button is pressed again or the engine is turned off.
If your vehicle has air conditioning, the rear
window defogger will turn off about 10 minutes
after the button is pressed. The defogger can also
be turned off by pressing the button again or by
turning the engine off.
Notice:Do not use anything sharp on the
inside of the rear window. If you do, you could
cut or damage the warming grid, and the
repairs would not be covered by your warranty.
Do not attach a temporary vehicle license,
tape, a decal or anything similar to the
defogger grid.

If the airbag readiness light stays on after you
start the vehicle or comes on when you are driving,
your airbag system may not work properly.
Have your vehicle serviced right away.
{CAUTION:
If the airbag readiness light stays on after
you start your vehicle, it means the airbag
system may not be working properly. The
airbags in your vehicle may not inate in
a crash, or they could even inate without
a crash. To help avoid injury to yourself
or others, have your vehicle serviced right
away if the airbag readiness light stays on
after you start your vehicle.
The airbag readiness light should flash for a few
seconds when you turn the ignition key to RUN. If
the light does not come on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator
(Sedan)
Your vehicle has a passenger airbag status
indicator.
If you have a sedan, the airbag off symbol will be
visible near the clock, located in the center of
the instrument panel, during the system check.
When the ignition key is turned to ON or START,
the passenger airbag status indicator will light
for several seconds as a system check. Then, after
several more seconds, if the off symbol is lit on
the passenger airbag status indicator, it means
that the passenger sensing system has turned off
the right front passenger’s frontal airbag and
side impact airbag (if equipped). SeePassenger
Sensing System on page 77for more on this,
including important safety information.
