Ashtray(s) and Cigarette Lighter
Your vehicle may have an ashtray and a cigarette
lighter located in the center floor console. To
open the removable ashtray, flip open the top.
Notice:If you put papers, pins, or other
ammable items in the ashtray, hot cigarettes
or other smoking materials could ignite
them and possibly damage your vehicle. Never
put ammable items in the ashtray.
To use the cigarette lighter, push it in all the way
and let it go. When it’s ready, it will pop back
out by itself.
Notice:Holding a cigarette lighter in while it
is heating will not allow the lighter to back
away from the heating element when it is hot.
Damage from overheating may occur to the
lighter or heating element, or a fuse could be
blown. Do not hold a cigarette lighter in
while it is heating.
Climate Controls
Climate Control System
With these systems, you can control the heating,
cooling and ventilation for your vehicle.
If your vehicle does not have air conditioning, the
controls will look like this:
Turn the mode knob on the far right clockwise or
counterclockwise to direct the airflow inside of
your vehicle.
Vehicles Without Air Conditioning

Page 158 of 430

To change the current mode, select one of the
following:
9(Off):This setting turns the system off.
H(Vent):This mode directs air to the instrument
panel vents.
)(Bi-Level):This mode directs half of the air to
the instrument panel vents, then directs the
remaining air to the floor vents. Cooler air is
directed to the upper vents and warmer air to the
floor vents.
6(Floor):This mode directs most of the air to
the floor vents. Use this mode to send air to
the rear of the vehicle. Keep the area under the
front seats free of objects that could obstruct
airflow to the rear of the vehicle.
The mode knob can also be used to select the
defrost mode. For more information, see
“Defogging and Defrosting” later in this section.
9(Fan):Turn the left knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the fan
speed. To increase airflow, turn the knob clockwise.
To decrease airflow, turn it counterclockwise. To
turn the fan off, turn the mode knob on the far right
counterclockwise to the off position.Temperature Knob:Turn the middle knob
located clockwise or counterclockwise to increase
or decrease the temperature inside of your
vehicle. Turn the knob toward the red area for
warmer air. Turn the knob toward the blue area for
cooler air.
If your vehicle has air conditioning, the controls
will look like this:
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.

Anti-Lock Brake System
Warning Light
This light will come on
briefly when you start
your engine, then
it will turn off. This
is normal.
If the light stays on, or comes on when you are
driving, your vehicle needs service. If the BRAKE
or LOW AIR warning light is not on, you still
have brakes, but you do not have the anti-lock
brake feature. If the BRAKE and/or LOW AIR
warning light is on, you do not have anti-lock
brakes and there is a problem with your regular
brakes. SeeBrake System Warning Light on
page 169andAnti-Lock Brake System (ABS) on
page 212for more information.
The anti-lock brake system warning light should
come on briefly when you turn the ignition
key to ON. If the light does not come on then,
have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if
there is a problem.
Trailer Anti-Lock Brake System
Warning Light
This light is located
above the climate
controls in the center of
the instrument panel.
If your vehicle is connected to a trailer with
anti-lock brakes, this light should come on briefly,
as a check, when you turn on the ignition.
When this light comes on and stays on, it means
there is something wrong in the trailer anti-lock
brake system. Have the system repaired
immediately.
If an anti-lock brake system equipped trailer is not
connected, this light is not functional.

Transmission Temperature Gage
If you have an automatic
transmission and this
gage, it is located above
the switchbank in the
center of the instrument
panel.
When your ignition is on, the gage shows the
temperature of the transmission oil. A reading in
the warning zone, the red area beginning at 300°F
(150°C), means you must stop driving and
check into the cause. One possible cause is a low
oil level in the transmission.
Notice:If you drive your vehicle with the
transmission temperature gage above normal
operating range, you can damage the
transmission. This could lead to costly repairs
that would not be covered by your warranty.
Do not drive your vehicle while the
transmission temperature gage reading is
above normal. See your dealer for service.
Exhaust Brake Indicator Light
If your vehicle is
equipped with an
exhaust brake, you will
have this light, located
above the climate
controls in the center of
the instrument panel.
The exhaust brake indicator light will come on and
stay on whenever the diesel engine exhaust brake
or exhaust restrictor is active. For more information,
seeDiesel Engine Exhaust Brake on page 112and
Exhaust Restrictor (Engine Warm-Up) on page 108.
Differential Lock Indicator Light
If your vehicle has this
feature, this light is
located in the center of
the instrument panel.
The light is on when the
rear differential lock
system is in use.
178
Page 179 of 430

The light will come on momentarily during starting.
If the light fails to come on, have it repaired as
soon as possible so you will be aware when
the lock system is in use.
SeeRear Axle Differential Lock Control on
page 215for more information.
Reduced Engine Power Light
If the check engine and
reduced engine power
lights are on, the
electronic throttle control
may be disabled, and a
noticeable change in the
vehicle’s performance
may occur.
If the reduced engine power light is on, but there
is no change in performance, proceed to your
destination. The performance may be reduced the
next time the vehicle is driven. The vehicle may
be driven at a slower speed while the reduced
engine power light is on, but acceleration
and speed may be limited.
Anytime the check engine light stays on, the
vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer as
soon as possible for service.
Highbeam On Light
This light comes on
when the high-beam
headlamps are in use.
SeeHeadlamp High/Low-Beam Changer on
page 144.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
Indicator Light
This light is located on
the instrument panel
cluster. It goes on
whenever the Daytime
Running Lamps are on.
SeeDaytime Running Lamps (DRL) on page 151
for more information.
When it begins to get dark, the DRL indicator light
is a reminder to turn on your headlamps.
