The auxiliary power point is located
on the instrument panel.
Do not plug optional electrical
accessories into the cigarette lighter.
Use the power point.
CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
Heater only system (if equipped)
Fan speed control
Controls the volume of air circulated
in the vehicle.
Temperature control
Controls the temperature of the
airflow inside the vehicle. On
heater-only systems, the air cannot
be cooled below the outside
temperature.
Mode selector control
Controls the direction of the airflow
to the inside of the vehicle.
•
(Panel) -Distributes outside air through the instrument panel
registers.

•OFF-Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate.
•
(Panel and floor) -Distributes outside air through the instrument
panel registers and the floor ducts.
•
(Floor) -Allows for maximum heating. Distributes outside air
through the floor ducts.
•
(Floor and defrost) -Distributes outside air through the floor
ducts and the windshield defroster ducts.
•
(Defrost) -Distributes outside air through the windshield
defroster ducts. It can be used to clear ice or fog from the windshield.
Operating tips
•In humid weather, select
before driving. This will reduce fogging
on your windshield. After a few minutes, select any desired position.
•To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle, don’t drive with the
climate control system in the OFF position.
•Don’t put objects under the front seat that will interfere with the
airflow to the rear seats (if equipped).
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves
from the air intake area (at the
bottom of the windshield under
the hood).
•Do not place objects over the defroster outlets. These objects can
block airflow and reduce your ability to see through your windshield.
Also, avoid placing small objects on top of your instrument panel.
These objects can fall down into the defroster outlets and block
airflow and possibly damage your climate control system.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel, as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or a sudden stop.

Manual heating and air conditioning system
Fan speed control
Controls the volume of air circulated
in the vehicle.
Temperature control knob
Controls the temperature of the
airflow inside the vehicle.
Mode selector control
Controls the direction of the airflow
to the inside of the vehicle.
The air conditioning compressor will operate in all modes except
(Panel) and(Floor). However, the air conditioning will only function
if the outside temperature is about 10°C (50°F) or higher.
Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the air
during operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under
the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you
have stopped the vehicle.
•MAX A/C-Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. MAX A/C is noisier
than A/C but more economical and will cool the inside of the vehicle
faster. Airflow will be from the instrument panel registers. This mode
can also be used to prevent undesirable odors from entering the
vehicle.
•A/C-Uses outside air to cool the vehicle. It is quieter than MAX A/C
but not as economical. Airflow will be from the instrument panel
registers.

•(Panel) -Distributes outside air through the instrument panel
registers. However, the air will not be cooled below the outside
temperature because the air conditioning does not operate in this
mode.
•OFF-Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate. For short
periods of time only, use this mode to prevent undesirable odors from
entering the vehicle.
•
(Panel and floor) -Distributes outside air through the instrument
panel registers and the floor ducts. Heating and air conditioning
capabilities are provided in this mode. For added customer comfort,
when the temperature control knob is anywhere in between the full
hot and full cold positions, the air distributed through the floor ducts
will be slightly warmer than the air sent to the instrument panel
registers.
•
(Floor) -Allows for maximum heating by distributing outside air
through the floor ducts. However, the air will not be cooled below the
outside temperature because the air conditioning does not operate in
this mode.
•
(Floor and defrost) -Distributes outside air through the
windshield defroster ducts and the floor ducts. Heating and air
conditioning capabilities are provided in this mode. For added
customer comfort, the air distributed through the floor ducts will be
slightly warmer than the air sent to the windshield defroster ducts. If
the temperature is about 10°C (50°F) or higher, the air conditioner
will automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.
•
(Defrost) -Distributes outside air through the windshield
defroster ducts. It can be used to clear ice or fog from the windshield.
If the temperature is about 10°C (50°F) or higher, the air conditioner
will automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.
Operating tips
•In humid weather, select
before driving. This will reduce fogging
on your windshield. After a few minutes, select any desired position.
•To prevent humidity buildup inside the vehicle, don’t drive with the
climate control system in the OFF or MAX A/C position.
•Don’t put objects under the front seat that will interfere with the
airflow to the rear seats (if equipped).

•Remove any snow, ice or leaves
from the air intake area (at the
bottom of the windshield under
the hood).
•If your vehicle has been parked with the windows closed during hot
weather, the air conditioner will do a much faster job of cooling if you
drive for two or three minutes with the windows open. This will force
most of the hot, stale air out of the vehicle. Then operate your air
conditioner as you would normally.
•Do not place objects over the defroster outlets. These objects can
block airflow and reduce your ability to see through your windshield.
Also, avoid placing small objects on top of your instrument panel.
These objects can fall down into the defroster outlets and block
airflow and possibly damage your climate control system.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel, as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.
