MANUAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
Manual system with A/C shown; heater only system similar.
1.
:Turn to select the desired fan speed.
2.Air flow selections:Controls the direction of the airflow in the
vehicle. See the following for a brief description on each control setting:
MAX A/C (if equipped):Distributes recirculated air through the
instrument panel vents to cool the vehicle. This re-cooling of the
interior air is more economical and efficient than normal A/C mode.
Recirculated air may also help reduce undesirable odors from entering
the vehicle.
:Distributes air through the instrument panel vents.
:Distributes air through the instrument panel vents, demister
vents, floor vents and rear seat floor vents.
:Turns the climate control system off. When the system is off,
outside air is prevented from entering the vehicle.
:Distributes air through the floor vents and rear seat floor vents.
Note:You may notice a small amount of air flowing from the demister
and defroster vents.
:Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents, demisters
vents, floor vents and rear seat floor vents.

:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster and
demister vents. Can be used to clear thin ice or fog from the
windshield. The system will automatically provide outside air to reduce
window fogging. To exit
select another mode.
3.Temperature:Controls the temperature of the airflow in the vehicle.
For optimum defrosting performance, set the dial to the hottest setting.
4.
R:Press to activate/deactivate the rear window defroster. Refer to
Rear window defrosterlater in this chapter for more information. If
your vehicle is equipped with both rear defroster and heated mirrors, the
same button will activate both.
5.
:Press to activate/deactivate air recirculation in the vehicle
cabin. Recirculated air may reduce the amount of time required to cool
down the interior of the vehicle and may also help reduce undesired
odors from reaching the interior of the vehicle. Recirculated air engages
automatically when MAX A/C is selected or can be engaged manually in
any airflow mode except
(defrost).
6.A/C (if equipped):Press to activate/deactivate air conditioning. Use
with recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency.
Engages automatically in
(defrost),(floor/defrost) or MAX A/C.
Operating tips
•To reduce fog build-up on the windshield during humid weather,
select
(defrost) or(floor/defrost).
•To reduce humidity build-up inside the vehicle, do not drive with the
system off or with
(recirculated air) engaged and A/C off.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
•To improve the time to reach comfort in hot weather, drive with the
windows slightly open for 2-3 minutes after start up or until the
vehicle has been “aired out.”
•A small amount of air may be felt from the floor vent regardless of the
air distribution setting that is selected.
During extreme high ambient temperatures when idling stationary for
extended periods of time in gear, it is recommended to run the A/C in
the MAX A/C position, reduce blower fan speed from the highest setting

Important ventilating information
If the engine is idling while the vehicle is stopped for a long period of
time, open the windows at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) or adjust the heating or
air conditioning to bring in fresh air.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IF EQUIPPED)
An engine block heater warms the engine coolant which aids in starting
and allows the heater/defroster system to respond quickly. If your vehicle
is equipped with this system, your equipment includes a heater element
which is installed in your engine block and a wire harness which allows
the user to connect the system to a grounded 120 volt A/C electrical
source. The block heater system is most effective when outdoor
temperatures reach below 0°F (-18°C).
WARNING:Failure to follow engine block heater instructions
could result in property damage or physical injury.
WARNING:To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not use
your heater with ungrounded electrical systems or two-pronged
(cheater) adapters.
Prior to using the engine block heater, follow these recommendations for
proper and safe operation:
•For your safety, use an outdoor extension cord that is product
certified by Underwriter’s Laboratory (UL) or Canadian Standards
Association (CSA). Use only an extension cord that can be used
outdoors, in cold temperatures, and is clearly marked “Suitable for Use
with Outdoor Appliances.” Never use an indoor extension cord
outdoors; it could result in an electric shock or fire hazard.
•Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord, minimum.
•Use as short an extension cord as possible.
•Do not use multiple extension cords. Instead, use one extension cord
which is long enough to reach from the engine block heater cord to
the outlet without stretching.
•Make certain that the extension cord is in excellent condition (not
patched or spliced). Store your extension cord indoors at
temperatures above 32°F (0°C). Outdoor conditions can deteriorate
extension cords over a period of time.
