Liftgate Caution
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the liftgate
glass, liftgate or rear doors open because carbon
monoxide (CO) gas can come into your vehicle.
You can't see or smell CO. It can cause
unconsciousness and even death.
If you must drive with the liftgate glass, liftgate
or rear doors open or if electrical wiring or other
cable connections must pass through the seal
between the body and the liftgate glass, liftgate
or rear doors:
Make sure all other windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on MAX A/C. That will force outside air
into your vehicle. See ªComfort Controlsº
in the Index.
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See ªEngine Exhaustº in the Index.
Liftgate Glass and Liftgate
To open a mechanical lock system from the outside,
insert the key into the lock and turn it counterclockwise
to unlock the glass and liftgate.
The liftgate glass can be opened using the pushbutton on
the liftgate after the doors have been unlocked. This can
be done by using either the power door locks or the
remote keyless entry system.
To open the entire liftgate, lift the handle located in the
center of the door.
To lock a power lock system from the outside, insert the
key into the lock button and turn clockwise. All doors will
lock. You may also use the keyless entry system or the
power door locks to lock the liftgate and liftgate glass.
Panel Doors
To open the rear panel doors, you must open the
passenger's side panel door first. If the door is locked,
insert your door key in the lock and turn it

3-5 Electronic Climate Control System
(If Equipped)
Fan Control
The knob on the left side of the electronic climate
control panel controls the fan speed. To manually
increase airflow, move the knob clockwise. To manually
decrease airflow, move it counterclockwise.
OFF: If the knob is in OFF, outside air will still enter
the vehicle, and will be directed based on the position of
the mode knob.
AUTO: If the knob is in AUTO, the fan speed will vary
as the system maintains the selected temperature.When both the Fan Control and Mode Knobs are in
the AUTO position, the system will then automatically
maintain the desired cabin temperature as selected by
Temperature Knob. Manual control of functions is
also available.
Temperature Knob
The middle knob on the control panel lets you select
the desired air temperature in your vehicle. This knob
will allow you to adjust the interior air temperature
independent of the function knob setting. Move the
knob clockwise toward 82 for warmer air. Move the
knob counterclockwise toward 66 for cooler air. When
the system is set for automatic operation, sensors will
control the fan/blower speed.
Full Hot: If you turn the temperature knob past
82F (28C), the system will go into the ªfull hotº
mode. The system will remain at that maximum heating
setting and the fan will blow at the speed the fan knob is
set to. If the fan is in AUTO, it will run at full speed.
Full Cold: If you turn the temperature knob past
66F (19C), the system will go into the ªfull coldº
mode. The system will remain at that maximum cooling
setting and the fan will blow at the speed the fan knob is
set to. If the fan is in AUTO, it will run at full speed.

Rear Air Conditioning and Rear Heater
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle has the rear air conditioning and rear
heater system combination, controls are provided to
regulate temperature, location and speed of the airflow.
Front Control
To adjust the airflow speed, turn the fan control knob
located on the left side to the desired blower setting.
To activate the second seat control system, turn the fan
knob on the front overhead control to REAR.
To regulate the airflow location, adjust the right knob on
the control panel. Turn the knob clockwise for floor vent
airflow or counterclockwise for headliner vent airflow.Generally, the upper vents are used for air conditioning
and the floor vents for heating. The control knob can be
set to any blend setting.
To adjust the air temperature, turn the temperature knob
on the center of the control panel.
For warmer air, turn the knob clockwise toward the red,
and for cooler air, turn the knob counterclockwise.
Rear Control

3-10 Rear Air Conditioning and Heating Systems
with Electronic Climate Control System
(If Equipped)

temperature of the air flow for his/her own zones.
The climate control has three controls.
To adjust the airflow speed, turn the fan control knob
located on the left side of the control panel to the desired
blower setting.
The system also has a front AUTO setting that can
automatically change the temperature of the rear seating
area based on information from the front control. An
OFF setting, located on the front climate control panel,
also allows the driver to turn off the rear passenger seat
controls from the front seat.
To adjust the air temperature, turn the temperature knob
on the center of the control panel.
For warmer air, turn the knob clockwise toward the red.
Turn the knob counterclockwise toward the blue for
cooler air.

3-11 Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
air inside escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed
for the air conditioner to work its best.
The RECIRCULATION button allows the air inside
your vehicle to be recirculated. This setting helps to
maximize your air conditioner's performance and your
vehicle's fuel economy. This setting also cools air the
fastest and can be used to keep unwanted odors
and/or dust from entering the vehicle. When using
the air conditioner, turn off the RECIRCULATION
button after the vehicle reaches a comfortable interior
temperature. When the right knob on the control panel
is between HEATER and DEFROST, the recirculation
feature will not function to reduce window fogging.The A/C button, below the mode knob, allows the air
coming into your vehicle to be cooled. This setting is
useful for normal cooling on hot days. When you use
A/C with the RECIRCULATION button pushed in,
turn off recirculation as soon as the vehicle reaches a
comfortable interior temperature.
Maximum air conditioning performance is obtained by
pressing the A/C button, the RECIRCULATION button
and turning the temperature knob fully counterclockwise
to the blue area. This setting also cools air the fastest.
After the vehicle's interior reaches a comfortable
temperature, press the OUTSIDE AIR button to
place the air conditioning system in the normal mode.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has air conditioning, it is equipped
with a passenger compartment air filter, which filters
outside air entering the vehicle. For information on
replacing the filter see ªPassenger Compartment
Air Filterº in the Index.
