The rear temperature knob and the rear blower speed can
be adjusted as desired by the second seat occupants.
Automatic Temperature Control — If Equipped
The Infrared Three-Zone Automatic Temperature Control
System automatically maintains the interior comfort level
desired by the driver and all passengers. This is accom-
plished by using two infrared sensors, located in the
center of the instrument panel. The two infrared sensors
independently measure the surface temperature of the
driver and passenger. Based on the sensor input, the
system automatically adjusts the air temperature, the air
flow volume, and amount of outside air recirculation.
This maintains a comfortable temperature even under
changing conditions. Operation of the system is quite simple. Begin by press-
ing the auto rocker switch to the “HI” or “LO” position,
the word “AUTO” will illuminate in the front ATC
display along with “HI” or “LO”. The system will then
automatically regulate the amount of air flow. Next, dial
in the temperature you would like the system to maintain
by pressing the driver’s or passenger’s temperature con-
trol button. The rear temperature can only be adjusted
from the front when the “REAR SYSTEM” knob on the Three-Zone Automatic Temperature Control UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 289

front ATC unit is in the “AUTO” position. Once the
desired temperature is displayed, the system will achieve
and maintain that comfort level automatically. When the
system is set up for your comfort level, it is not necessary
to change the settings. You will experience the greatest
efficiency by simply allowing the system to function
automatically.
NOTE:

Defrost Mode
Air comes from the windshield and side window demist
outlets. Use this setting when necessary to defrost your
windshield and side windows.
NOTE: While operating in either  Auto HI  or  Auto
LO  , the system will not automatically sense the presence of fog, mist, or ice on the windshield.  Defrost  mode
must be manually selected to clear the windshield and
side glass.
The  snowflake  or  a/c  button allows the opera-
tor to manually activate or deactivate the air
conditioning system. When the snowflake symbol
in the ATC display is on, cool, dehumidified air flows
through the air outlets. If economy mode is desired, press
the snowflake button to turn off the snowflake icon in the
ATC display and deactivate the air conditioning system.
Note: While operating in  auto hi  or  auto lo  , the air
conditioning system is always activated. If fog, or mist
appears on the windshield or side glass, select  defrost 
mode and increase blower speed.
Recirculation Control
When outside air contains smoke, odors, high
humidity, or if rapid cooling is desired, you
may wish to recirculate interior air by pressingDefrost Outlets UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 295

the recirculation button. The recirculation mode should
only be used temporarily. The recirculation symbol will
illuminate in the display when this button is selected.
Push the button a second time to turn off the recirculation
icon in the display and allow outside air into the vehicle.
NOTE: In cold weather, use of the Recirculation mode
may lead to excessive window fogging. The Recirculation
mode is not allowed in the Mix and Defrost modes to
improve window clearing operation. Recirculation will
be disabled automatically if these modes are selected.
Rear Automatic Temperature Control — If
Equipped
The Rear Automatic Temperature Control System has
floor air outlets to the rear of the right side sliding door
and overhead outlets at each outboard rear seating
position. The system provides heated air through the
floor outlets or cool, dehumidified air through the head-
liner outlets. The “REAR SYSTEM” knob for the Rear Automatic
Temperature Control System is on the front ATC control
unit located on the instrument panel.
Selecting the “AUTO” position for the Rear Automatic
Temperature Control System from the front ATC control
unit, illuminates a “LOCK” symbol in the rear display.
The rear temperature and air source are controlled from
the front ATC control unit.
The “REAR SYSTEM” knob on the front ATC control unit
has three positions, “REAR CONTROL”, “OFF”, and
“AUTO”. Only when the “REAR SYSTEM” knob is in the
“REAR CONTROL” position do the second seat occu-
pants have control of the Rear Automatic Temperature
Control System.
The Rear Automatic Temperature Control System is
located in the headliner near the center of the vehicle.296 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

Operation of the rear system is quite simple. Begin by
rotating the rear system center control knob on the front
ATC control unit to the “REAR CONTROL” position, this
illuminates an “UNLOCK” symbol in the rear display.
Next, rotate the Rear Blower Control and the Rear Mode
Control to the “AUTO” positions. Select the temperature you would like the system to maintain by pressing the
Rear Temperature Control button. Once the desired tem-
perature is displayed, the system will achieve and main-
tain that comfort level automatically. When the system is
set up for your comfort level, it is not necessary to change
the settings. You will experience the greatest efficiency by
simply allowing the system to function automatically.
NOTE:

If your vehicle is equipped with Infrared Three-Zone
Automatic Temperature Control the rear defroster sym-
bol will show in the display screen when the rear
window defroster is on.
CAUTION!To avoid damaging the electrical conductors of the
rear window defroster, do not use scrapers, sharp
instruments, or abrasive window cleaners on the
interior surface of the window.
Labels can be peeled off after soaking with warm
water. UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 305

Service Tire System Soon
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Lamp will flash on
and off for 60 seconds in the instrument cluster, and an
audible chime will be activated when one or more of the
four active road tire pressures are low.
In addition the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) will display a “SERVICE TIRE SYSTEM SOON”
text message. The flash cycle will repeat every ten
minutes, without an audible chime, until the condition no
longer exists. The flash cycle sequence will repeat and an
audible chime will sound once every ignition cycle for
each condition that it detects.
NOTE: If a temporary spare tire is in use and none of
the remaining 3 active road tire pressures are low, a
“SERVICE TIRE SYSTEM SOON textual message will
appear in the EVIC after 10 minutes of driving, CAUTION!The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) has
been optimized for the original equipment tires and
wheels. TPMS pressures have been established for
the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable
system operation or sensor damage may result when
using replacement equipment that is not of the same
size, type, and/or style. After-market wheels can
cause sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant from a
can, or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped
with a Tire Pressure Monitor System, as damage to
the sensors may result. STARTING AND OPERATING 351

ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM — OBD II
Your vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated onboard
diagnostic system called OBD II. This system monitors
the performance of the emissions, engine, and automatic
transmission control systems. When these systems are
operating properly, your vehicle will provide excellent
performance and fuel economy, as well as engine emis-
sions well within current government regulations.
If any of these systems require service, the OBD II system
will turn on the “Malfunction Indicator Light.” It will
also store diagnostic codes and other information to
assist your service technician in making repairs. Al-
though your vehicle will usually be drivable and not
need towing, see your dealer for service as soon as
possible. CAUTION!• Prolonged driving with the “Malfunction Indica-
tor Light” on could cause further damage to the
emission control system. It could also affect fuel
economy and driveability. The vehicle must be
serviced before any emissions tests can be per-
formed.
• If the “Malfunction Indicator Light” is flashing
while the engine is running, severe catalytic con-
verter damage and power loss will soon occur.
Immediate service is required.
Loose Fuel Filler Cap Message
After fuel is added, the vehicle diagnostic system can
determine if the fuel filler cap is loose, improperly
installed, or damaged. A loose fuel filler cap message will
be displayed in the instrument cluster. Tighten the gas416 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
