AUXILIARY A/C-HEATER CONTROLS (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with auxiliary climate controls. These
allow the front or rear seat passengers to control airflow direction,
temperature and fan level of the rear compartment to quickly heat or
cool the vehicle.
Auxiliary climate controls are located in the first row overhead console
and in the floor console on the back of the front row console.
If the main climate control system is in the OFF position, the auxiliary
climate control will not operate.
The auxiliary unit can be controlled either by the front seat occupant(s)
using the front auxiliary control or by the rear seat passenger(s) using
the rear auxiliary control but not both. To control the auxiliary unit using
the rear control, the front auxiliary blower control must be in the REAR
position.
Front auxiliary controls:
1.Temperature control:
Determines airflow temperature in
the rear of the vehicle. If the main
climate control system is cooling in
MAX A/C or
mode, the
auxiliary temperature control will
not function as the entire vehicle
will operate at a full cool
temperature.
2.Mode selector:Press to select
air flow direction to
(Floor) or(Panel).
Directs air to the floor of the third row seating.
directs air to the overhead registers of the second and third row
seating. The selected mode will illuminate on the temperature control.
3.Fan control:Determines fan speed in the auxiliary system. Turn to
REAR to give rear seat passengers control of the rear auxiliary controls.
Otherwise, the front auxiliary control will determine the settings for the
auxiliary A/C-heater. If set to O (OFF), the rear auxiliary controls will
not function.

Average fuel economy (AFE)
Select this function from the INFO
menu to display your average fuel
economy in liters/100 km or
miles/gallon.
If you calculate your average fuel
economy by dividing liters of fuel
used by 100 kilometers traveled (miles traveled by gallons used), your
figure may be different than displayed for the following reasons:
•Your vehicle was not perfectly level during fill-up
•Differences in the automatic shut-off points on the fuel pumps at
service stations
•Variations in top-off procedure from one fill-up to another
•Rounding of the displayed values to the nearest 0.1 liter (gallon)
1. Drive the vehicle at least 8 km (5 miles) with the speed control
system engaged to display a stabilized average.
2. Record the highway fuel economy for future reference.

Note:If the engine does not start within five seconds on the first try,
turn the key to OFF, wait 10 seconds and try again. If the engine still
fails to start, press the accelerator to the floor and try again; this will
allow the engine to crank with the fuel shut off in case the engine is
flooded with fuel.
Using the engine block heater (if equipped)
If your vehicle is factory equipped
with an engine block heater, a
rubber cap/plug assembly will be
visibly attached to the grille on the
front of the vehicle. For
factory-equipped, this assembly is
loose-shipped in-vehicle for
dealerhip installation. If not
factory-equipped, the engine block
heater can be purchased through
dealership accessories. Replacement
rubber caps are available through the dealer, 3L1Z-6E088-AA.
Use of an engine block heater is strongly recommended if you live in a
region where temperatures reach -23°C (-10°F) or below. For best
results, plug the heater in at least three hours before starting the vehicle
(the heater can be plugged in the night before starting the vehicle). To
plug the heater in, remove the cap from the plug and insert the plug into
a 110 volt grounded outlet. Be sure to re-attach the cap onto the plug
when the heater is not in use.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not use your heater
with ungrounded electrical systems or two-pronged (cheater)
adapters.
Guarding against exhaust fumes
Carbon monoxide is present in exhaust fumes. Take precautions to avoid
its dangerous effects.
If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have your dealer
inspect your vehicle immediately. Do not drive if you smell
exhaust fumes.
Important ventilating information
If the engine is idling while the vehicle is stopped for a long period of
time, open the windows at least 2.5 cm (one inch) or adjust the heating
or air conditioning to bring in fresh air.

are working.
Always set the parking brake fully and make sure the gearshift is
latched in P (Park). Turn the ignition to the LOCK position and
remove the key whenever you leave your vehicle.
If the parking brake is fully released, but the brake warning lamp
remains illuminated, the brakes may not be working properly.
See your dealer or a qualified service technician.
Driving with a 4–speed automatic transmission
Your vehicle’s automatic transmission is equipped with a special shift
strategy that insures maximum heater performance during cold weather
operation.
When ambient temperature is–5°C (23°F) or below and the engine
coolant temperature is below 38°C (100°F), light throttle upshifts may

will not affect function or durability of the transmission. Over time, the
adaptive learning process will fully update transmission operation.

2. Do not disconnect the battery of the disabled vehicle as this could
damage the vehicle’s electrical system.
3. Park the booster vehicle close to the hood of the disabled vehicle
making sure the two vehiclesdo nottouch. Set the parking brake on
both vehicles and stay clear of the engine cooling fan and other moving
parts.
4. Check all battery terminals and remove any excessive corrosion before
you attach the battery cables. Ensure that vent caps are tight and level.
5. Turn the heater fan on in both vehicles to protect any electrical
surges. Turn all other accessories off.
