when your vehicle is low
on fuel.
Refer to the fuel gage for a better indication of the
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank. Secondary Information Center (SIC) This section explains the features of your SIC.
The SIC provides instant information about fuel,
mileage and vehicle history in addition to allowing you
to personalize certain features of your vehicle. If you
would like to skip to the section on personalizing your
vehicle, see the section under MENU.

2-84Fuel
Each press of the FUEL button will change the
display between the fuel remaining range, average
fuel economy, instantaneous fuel economy and a
blank display.

The average fuel economy can be reset using the
RESET button.
Trip Each press of the TRIP button will change the
display between personal trip computer, business trip
computer, timer, vehicle history, annual mileage and a
blank display.
Personal Trip Computer and Business
Trip Computer

Each press of the arrow button will change the
display between turn on/off, trip odometer, fuel used,
average fuel economy and average speed.

The ON/OFF button will turn the trip computer on
and off. The information on the trip computer only
gets updated when it is turned on. The personal and
business computers are independent, i.e. turning one
of them on does not turn the other off.
All information associated with the trip computer
will be reset when the RESET button is pressed.

If the RESET button is pressed and held for more
than two seconds, all of the trip computer settings
will reset starting from the last ignition cycle
(turning the ignition from OFF to RUN). This
feature is for someone who has forgotten to reset the
trip computer when pulling out of the driveway and
does not realize it until after driving for awhile.
Timer

Each press of the ON/OFF button will turn the timer
on or off.

The RESET button will reset the timer to 00:00:00.

If turned on, the timer will accumulate whenever
the SIC is powered (the engine does not have to
be running).

The timer will rollover after 99:59:59.

2-85Vehicle History Last 15 Days

The first press of the arrow button will display the
maximum speed and accumulated mileage for the
current day.

Every press of the arrow button after will display the
maximum speed and accumulated mileage for the
previous day.

This feature requires the date and time to be set
correctly. Refer to the setting of day/date/time under
the MENU button explained later in this section.
Annual Mileage

The annual mileage displayed is the mileage
accumulated since the annual mileage was reset.

Pressing the RESET button will reset the annual
mileage to 0.

Pressing the arrow button will display the ratio of
personal trip computer mileage to annual mileage as
a percent.

Pressing the arrow button again will display the ratio
of business trip computer mileage to annual mileage
as a percent. Menu Press the MENU button to choose a feature you would
like to personalize (the features are listed below). Each
press of the button will display a new item that can be
personalized. Use the arrow button to choose the setting
you would like to use within the chosen feature. For
example: Say you would like to personalize the
automatic door locks so that the automatic locking
feature is disabled. You would do the following:
1. First press the MENU button until you reach the
Automatic Door Lock screen.
2. Next, press the arrow button until you find the
Disabled setting.

pressing FUEL or TRIP. The SIC will then
display the day/date.

mode on its own by waiting approximately

3-2Comfort Controls Electronic Climate Control System
Fan Knob
The knob on the left side of the electronic climate
control panel regulates the fan speed. To manually
increase airflow, turn the knob clockwise. To manually
decrease airflow, turn 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 (Automatic): If the knob is in AUTO, the
fan speed will vary as the system maintains the
selected temperature.
When both the fan knob and mode knobs are in the
AUTO position, the system will then automatically
maintain the desired cabin temperature selected.
Manual operation is also available.
Temperature Knob
The middle knob on the control panel lets you select the
desired air temperature in your vehicle. Turn the knob
clockwise toward 82 for warmer air. Turn the knob
counterclockwise toward 66 for cooler air. When the
system is set for automatic operation, sensors will
regulate the fan speed.
(Full hot): If you turn the temperature knob past 82
F
(28
C), 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 to which the fan knob
is set. If the fan is in AUTO, it will run at full speed.
(Full cold): If you turn the temperature knob past 66
F
(19
C), 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 to which the fan knob
is set. If the fan is in AUTO, it will run at full speed.

3-3Mode Knob
- Manual Operation
The right knob on the control panel allows you to
choose the direction of air delivery.
You can choose to set the climate control system
operations manually, or let the system work
automatically by turning the knob on the control panel
to AUTO. See ªMode Knob
-- Automatic Operationº
later in this section.
(Vent): This setting directs most of the air through
the instrument panel outlets and a small amount through
the floor outlets.
(Bi
- level): This setting directs air through the
floor outlets as well as the instrument panel outlets.
(Floor): This setting directs most of the airflow
through the floor outlets and some air through the
windshield defroster outlets. Recirculation will not be
available in this mode. See ªRecirculationº following
for more information. (Blend): This setting divides airflow equally
between the floor outlets and the windshield defroster
outlets. The air conditioning compressor may run to
dehumidify the air to prevent window fogging.
Recirculation will not be available in this mode. See
ªRecirculationº following for more information.
(Defrost): This setting directs most air through the
windshield defroster outlets and some through the floor
outlets. The air conditioning compressor may run to
dehumidify the air to prevent window fogging.
Recirculation will not be available in this mode. See
ªRecirculationº following for more information.
Mode Buttons
(Outside air): Press this button, located
under the fan knob, to use outside air. Using outside
air will limit stale air odors and help to prevent
excessively humid interior air (from wet boots or
clothing or maximum passenger loads) from being
redirected onto windows.
Pressing the outside air button will cancel the
recirculation button.

3-4 (Recirculation): Press this button to limit
the amount of outside air entering the vehicle to a very
small amount. This setting helps limit odors entering the
vehicle and will assist in reaching a comfortable
temperature in very hot temperature conditions.
Pressing recirculation will cause the system to
recirculate interior air continuously and may cause the
vehicle windows to fog if the passenger compartment
floor is excessively wet.
A/C (Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn
the air conditioning on and off. The system will cool and
dehumidify the air inside the vehicle when the A/C light
is on. When in AUTO, the A/C is automatically engaged
when necessary.
Air conditioning will be automatically disabled when
the outside temperature drops below a level at which
air conditioning is effective. Pressing the recirculation button will cancel outside air
operation. To return to normal system operation and to
prevent stale passenger compartment air, be sure to
return to the outside air position.
To help reduce window fogging, recirculation will not
be available in floor, blend or defrost modes. If the
recirculation button is pressed in these modes, the LED
indicator for recirculation will flash three times
indicating that forced outside air is activated and
recirculation is not available.
If the air conditioning system is activated and system
demand is high in situations such as city traffic, idling,
or very hot weather, the system will automatically
switch from outside air to recirculation. The LED
indicator will not change. After demand on the system is
reduced, the system will return back to outside air.
