Rear Temperature Control (ATC)
The REAR button cycles through the following modes:
Rear Control From Front
This allows the driver or passenger to control the rear
blower speeds rotating the Power/Fan knob and the rear
temperature using the PASS/REAR Temp +/- rocker
switch. While in this mode, pressing the POWER/FAN
knob will turn the rear system off. Pressing the Power/
Fan knob will turn the rear system back on.
NOTE:The display will show a9REAR9fan speed graph
and a9REAR9digital temp setting.
CONTROL IN REAR
This allows the passengers in the second row seats to
control the blower speed and temperature by means of the
rear control located in the rear of the center floor console as
described under the9Rear Zone Climate Control.9
NOTE:The front display will show ªCONTROL IN
REAR.º

This turns the rear system off. The control will return to
the front system display after approximately five seconds
if no buttons are pushed while in one of the rear system
displays. You may also return to the front system display
sooner by pushing any button except the Power/Fan
knob, the REAR button, or the driver/passenger Temp
rocker buttons.

Rear Zone Climate Control Ð If Equipped
Headliner air comes from the outlets in the headliner.
Each of these outlets can be individually adjusted to
direct the flow of air. Moving the air vane knobs on the
outlets to one side will shut off the airflow.The rear compartment control uses two rotary knobs: one
for the temperature control and the other for the fan
speed control. The mode for the rear air conditioning and
heating system is always controlled by the front control
unit. Fan and temperature can be controlled from the
front control unit or the rear control unit.

Treadwear
The Treadwear grade is a comparative rating, based on
the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified government test course. For
example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half
times as well on the government course as a tire graded
100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the
actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to variations in driving
habits, service practices, and differences in road charac-
teristics and climate.
Traction Grades
The Traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B,
and C. These grades represent the tire's ability to stop on
wet pavement, as measured under controlled conditions
on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and
concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction perfor-
mance.
WARNING!
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on
straight-ahead braking traction tests, and does not
include acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning, or
peak traction characteristics.
