Operation
You don’t have to do anything for PKE to work when
the passive feature is on. Just move toward your
vehicle with the
PKE transmitter, and the system will
automatically disarm your theft-deterrent system and
unlock the doors. If it’s dark enough outside, your
interior lamps will come on.
If you move out of range, the
PKE system will:
1. Lock the doors after five seconds.
2. Arm the theft-deterrent system.
3. Sound the horn to let you know the doors are locked.
4. Turn off the interior lamps.
You can also use the buttons on the transmitter. Press
DOOR to open the passenger’s door or HATCH to open
the hatch. The HATCH button will only work when the
ignition is off.
The system has a feature that makes it difficult for you
to lock your keys
in your vehicle. If you leave your keys
in the ignition and lock the doors,
the system will unlock
the doors as soon as they are closed. If you leave the
keys in the ignition-and move away with the transmitter,
the doors still will not lock. You should notice that the
horn doesn’t sound and return to get your keys.

You may want to use BI-LEVEL on cool, but sunny
days. This setting directs outside air through the
instrument panel vents and the floor ducts.
Press BI-LEVEL and FAN UP, then slide the
temperature control lever to a comfortable setting.
Ventilation
For mild outside temperatures, when little heating or
cooling is needed, you can still direct outside air through
your vehicle.
Press VENT and FAN UP, then slide the temperature
control lever to a comfortable setting.
Defogging and Defrosting
Your vehicle has several settings for clearing your
windows. The air conditioning compressor will run to
help remove moisture from the air.
To defrost the windshield quickly, press DEFROST and
FAN UP, then slide the temperature control lever all the
way
to the right or to the FULL HOT position. To
defrost the side windows quickly, press BI-LEVEL
and FAN UP. Then slide the temperature control lever
all the way
to the right. Direct airflow through the air
conditioning outlets closest to the side windows.
Cooling
The air conditioner works best if you keep your
windows closed. On very hot days, open the windows
just long enough for the hot air to escape.
Press RECIRCULATE and FAN UP. Then slide the
temperature control lever to a comfortable setting.
Direct airflow through the air conditioning outlets
closest to the side windows.
After cool-down, adjust the air control buttons to
another setting. The compressor works in all settings
except VENT and HEATER and at all temperatures
above freezing.
When the air conditioning compressor is on, you may
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 and help fuel economy.
