TIONS
WARNING
.The heater and the air conditioner
operates only when the engine is
running.

would normally require the support of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. On
hot, sunny days, temperatures in a
closed vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or ani-
mals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the
interior air to become stale and the
windows to fog up.
. Do not adjust the heating and air
conditioning controls while driving so
that full attention may be given to
vehicle operation. .
Turn off the system when the engine
is not running to prevent battery
discharge.

cle can build up in the air conditioner unit.
Odor can enter the passenger compart-
ment through the vents.
. When parking, set the heater and air
conditioner controls to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. This should
help reduce odors inside the vehicle.

trol system will automatically adjust the
passenger compartment to be the set
appropriate temperature when the re-
mote engine start feature (if so
equipped) is used.
