Running Your Engine While
You're Parked
It's better not to park with the engine running. But if you
ever have to, here are some things to know.
CAUTION:
Idling the engine with the climate control
system off could allow dangerous exhaust into
your vehicle. See the earlier Caution under
ªEngine Exhaust.º
Also, idling in a closed-in place can let deadly
carbon monoxide (CO) into your vehicle even if
the fan is at the highest setting. One place
this can happen is a garage. Exhaust
-- with
CO
-- can come in easily. NEVER park in a
garage with the engine running.
Another closed-in place can be a blizzard.
See ªBlizzardº in the Index.
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to get out of your vehicle if
the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P) with the
parking brake firmly set. Your vehicle can roll.
Don't leave your vehicle when the engine is
running unless you have to. If you've left the
engine running, the vehicle can move suddenly.
You or others could be injured. To be sure your
vehicle won't move, even when you're on fairly
level ground, always set your parking brake and
move the shift lever to PARK (P).
If you have four-wheel drive, your vehicle will
be free to roll
-- even if your shift lever is in
PARK (P)
-- if your transfer case is in
NEUTRAL. So be sure the transfer case is in a
drive gear
-- not in NEUTRAL. See ªFour-Wheel
Drive (Automatic Transfer Case)º in the Index.
Follow the proper steps to be sure your vehicle won't
move. See ªShifting Into PARK (P)º in the Index.
If you're pulling a trailer, see ªTowing a Trailerº in
the Index.

Comfort Controls
This section tells you how to use the comfort controls.
With these systems, you can control the heating,
cooling and ventilation in your vehicle. Your vehicle
also has a flow
-through ventilation system described
later in this section.
Comfort Controls Personalization
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with the automatic comfort
control system and memory seats and mirrors, you
can store and recall the climate control settings for
temperature, air delivery mode and fan speed for
two different drivers. The personal choice settings
recalled are determined by the transmitter used to enter
the vehicle. After the button with the unlock symbol on
a remote keyless entry transmitter is pressed, the climate
control will adjust to the last settings of the identified
driver. The settings can also be changed by pressing
one of the memory buttons (1 or 2) located on the
driver's door. When adjustments are made, the new
settings are automatically saved for that driver.
Manual Dual Zone Comfort Controls
With this system, you can select different comfort
control settings for the driver and passengers.
Fan Knob
The knob on the left side of the climate control panel
regulates the fan speed. You can choose from
five different fan speeds or turn the fan off.
Driver's Side Temperature Lever
The lever on the left side of the climate control panel is
used to adjust the air temperature on the driver's side,
independent of the temperature set by the passenger.
Slide the lever upward to raise the temperature. Slide the
lever downward to lower the temperature.

3-3
Passenger's Side Temperature Lever
The lever on the right side of the climate control panel
is used to adjust the air temperature on the passenger's
side, independent of the temperature set by the driver.
Slide the lever upward to raise the temperature. Slide
the lever downward to lower the temperature.
This lever also adjusts the temperature to the rear
seat outlets.
Mode Knob
The knob on the right side of the control panel has
several settings to control the direction of airflow:
(Panel): Selecting panel mode will deliver air to
the instrument panel outlets.
(Bi-Level): Selecting bi-level mode will deliver
warmer air to the floor and cooler air to the instrument
panel outlets.
(Floor): Selecting floor mode will deliver air to
the floor outlets and some air to the defroster and side
window vents.
(Defog): Selecting defog will deliver air to the
floor, windshield outlets and side window vents.
(Defrost): Selecting this setting directs most of the
air through the defroster and side window vents. Some
of the air also goes to the floor ducts.
Mode Buttons
(Recirculation): Press this button to limit the
amount of outside air entering your vehicle. This is
helpful when you are trying to limit odors entering your
vehicle and for maximum air conditioning performance
in hot weather. Recirculation cannot be used in floor,
blend or defrost modes. An indicator on the button will
light up, flash three times and turn off when
recirculation is selected in these modes.
While in the recirculation mode the windows may fog
when the weather is cold and damp. To clear the fog,
select either the blend or defrost mode and increase the
fan speed.
(Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn the
air conditioning compressor on and off. The system will
cool and dehumidify the air inside the vehicle when the
air conditioning compressor is engaged.

3-5
Fan Switch
The switch with the fan symbol allows you to manually
adjust the fan speed. Press the up arrow to increase fan
speed and the down arrow to decrease fan speed.
MODE Button
Press this button to manually select the air delivery
mode to the floor, panel or windshield outlets. The
system will stay in the selected mode until the MODE
button is pushed again or the AUTO button is pushed.
Display
In full AUTO mode, the automatic climate control
system display will show the outside temperature,
labeled EXT for external temperature, and AUTO. If
you press the MODE button to select an air delivery
mode, the display will change to also show you the
current system mode. If you press the up or down
arrows on the fan switch, the display will change to
show the selected fan speed. After five seconds, the
display will change to show the EXT temperature and
the selected manual setting.Automatic Operation
Press the AUTO button to set the system to
automatically control the air delivery mode, fan speed,
air temperature and recirculation operations. Whenever
you press AUTO, the display will change to show the
current driver's set temperature, automatic air delivery
mode and fan speed. Press the AUTO button again
within five seconds and the display will show the
passenger's set temperature. After five seconds the
display will change to the EXT (external) temperature
outside the vehicle.
When AUTO is selected, the air conditioning operation
and air inlet will be automatically controlled. The air
conditioning compressor will run when outside
temperature is over approximately 40
F (4
C).
The air inlet will normally be set to outside air. If it's
hot outside, the air inlet will automatically switch to
recirculated inside air to help quickly cool down
your vehicle.

6-43 Uniform Tire Quality Grading
Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire
sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section
width. For example:
Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
The following information relates to the system
developed by the United States National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration, which grades tires by
treadwear, traction and temperature performance.
(This applies only to vehicles sold in the United States.)
The grades are molded on the sidewalls of most
passenger car tires. The Uniform Tire Quality Grading
system does not apply to deep tread, winter
-type snow
tires, space
-saver or temporary use spare tires, tires with
nominal rim diameters of 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm),
or to some limited
-production tires.
While the tires available on General Motors passenger
cars and light trucks may vary with respect to these
grades, they must also conform to federal safety
requirements and additional General Motors Tire
Performance Criteria (TPC) standards.Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on
the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and
a half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course
as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires
depends upon the actual conditions of their use,
however, and may depart significantly from the norm
due to variations in driving habits, service practices and
differences in road characteristics and climate.
Traction
-- AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA,
A, B, and C. Those grades represent the tire's ability
to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor
traction performance. Warning: The traction grade
assigned to this tire is based on straight
-ahead braking
traction tests, and does not include acceleration,
cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.
