PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Outside Air
Keep the air intakes in front of the
windshield free from obstruction (such as
snow or leaves) to allow the climate
control system to function effectively.
Recirculated Air
WARNING
Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to mist up. If the
windows mist up, follow the settings
for demisting the windshield. The air currently in the passenger
compartment recirculates. Outside air does
not enter your vehicle.
Heating
Heating performance depends on the
temperature of the engine coolant.
General Information on Controlling
the Interior Climate
Fully close all the windows.
Warming the Interior
Direct the air toward your feet. In cold or
humid weather conditions, direct some of
the air toward the windshield and the door
windows.
Cooling the Interior
Direct the air toward your face. Air Conditioning
The system directs air through the
evaporator for cooling. The evaporator
extracts humidity from the air to help keep
the windows free of mist. The system
directs the resulting condensation to the
outside of your vehicle, which may cause
a small pool to form under your vehicle.
This is normal.
Note:
The air conditioning operates only
when the temperature is above 39°F (4°C).
Note: When you use air conditioning, your
vehicle uses more fuel.

SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNINGS
Do not recline the seat backrest too
far as this can cause the occupant
to slide under the safety belt,
resulting in serious injury in the event of a
crash. Sitting improperly, out of position or
with the seat backrest reclined too
far, can result in serious injury or
death in the event of a crash. Always sit
upright against your seat backrest, with
your feet on the floor. Do not place objects higher than the
seat backrest to reduce the risk of
serious injury in the event of a crash
or during heavy braking. When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, safety belt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a crash.
We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
• Do not recline the seat backrest more
than 30 degrees. •
Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.
• Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of 10 inches
(25 centimeters) between your
breastbone and the airbag cover.
• Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.
• Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.
• Position the shoulder strap of the
safety belt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.
HEAD RESTRAINTS WARNINGS
Fully adjust the head restraint before
you sit in or operate your vehicle. This
will help minimize the risk of neck
injury in the event of a crash. Do not adjust
the head restraint when your vehicle is
moving. The adjustable head restraint is a
safety device. Whenever possible it
should be installed and correctly
adjusted when the seat is occupied. An
incorrectly adjusted head restraint may
provide reduced protection to an occupant
during certain rear impacts. Install the head restraint properly to
help minimize the risk of neck injury
in the event of a crash.

Installing the Head Restraint
Align the steel stems into the guide sleeves
and push the head restraint down until it
locks.
Folding the Head Restraint
1. Press and hold button E.
2. Pull it back up to reset.
Tilting Head Restraints (If Equipped)
The front head restraints may have a tilting
feature for extra comfort. To tilt the head
restraint, do the following:
1. Adjust the seat back to an upright
driving or riding position.
2. Pivot the head restraint forward toward
your head to the desired position.
After the head restraint reaches the
forward-most tilt position, pivot it forward
again to release it to the rearward, un-tilted
position.
MANUAL SEATS WARNING
Do not adjust the driver seat when
your vehicle is moving. Moving the Seat Backward and
Forward
WARNING
Rock the seat backward and forward
after releasing the lever to make sure
that it is fully engaged in its catch. A
seat which is not fully engaged in its catch
could move when your vehicle is moving.
This may result in the loss of control of
your vehicle, serious personal injury or
death. Adjusting the Lumbar Support (If

take care not to get your hands
caught between the seatback and
the frame, catches or mechanism. Failure
to take care may result in personal injury. Note:
Fully lower the head restraints. Your
vehicle may have folding rear head
restraints. Fold these before you fold the
seatback. See Head Restraints (page 103). 1. Press the unlock buttons down and

3. Stow the safety belt in the belt
stowage clip. This prevents the safety
belt from getting caught in the seat
latch.
Note: Do not attempt to fold the rear seat
cushion forward.
Unfolding the Seatback WARNINGS
When unfolding the seatback up,
take care not to get your hands
caught between the seatback and
the frame, catches or mechanism. Failure
to take care may result in personal injury. Make sure that any cargo or objects
are not trapped behind the seatback.
Make sure the safety belts are not
trapped in any way when unfolding the
seatback up. Failure of an occupant to be
able to use a trapped safety belt increases
the risk of serious personal injury or death. WARNINGS
Make sure that the seatback is fully
engaged in its catch. A seatback
which is not fully engaged in its catch
could move in the event of an accident.
This may result in serious personal injury
or death. HEATED SEATS
