Operating Tips
NOTE:
For suggested control settings for various
weather conditions, refer to “Climate
Controls” in “Getting To Know Your Vehicle”
in the Owner’s Manual.
Summer Operation
The engine cooling system must be
protected with a high-quality antifreeze
coolant to provide proper corrosion protec -
tion and to protect against engine over -
heating. OAT coolant (conforming to
MS.90032) is recommended.
Winter Operation
To ensure the best possible heater and
defroster performance, make sure the engine
cooling system is functioning properly and
the proper amount, type, and concentration
of coolant is used. Use of the Air Recircula -
tion mode during Winter months is not
recommended, because it may cause window
fogging.
Vacation/Storage
Before you store your vehicle, or keep it out
of service (i.e., vacation) for two weeks or
more, run the air conditioning system at idle
for about five minutes, in fresh air with the
blower setting on high. This will ensure
adequate system lubrication to minimize the
possibility of compressor damage when the
system is started again.
Window Fogging
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in
mild, rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear
the windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and
increase the front blower speed. Do not use
the Recirculation mode without A/C for long
periods, as fogging may occur.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause
damage to the heating elements:
Use care when washing the inside of the
rear window. Do not use abrasive window
cleaners on the interior surface of the
window. Use a soft cloth and a mild
washing solution, wiping parallel to the
heating elements. Labels can be peeled
off after soaking with warm water.
Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments,
or abrasive window cleaners on the inte-
rior surface of the window.
Keep all objects a safe distance from the
window.

This indicator light will illuminate when the
rear fog lights are on.
— Glow Plug Light — If Equipped
This vehicle will inhibit engine cranking
when the ambient temperature is less than
–22° F (–30° C) and the oil temperature
sensor reading indicates an engine block
heater has not been used. The Glow Plug
light will flash during in cold weather for up
to ten seconds.
If equipped with a block heater harness the
message “Plug In Engine Heater”, will be
displayed in the instrument cluster when the
ambient temperature is below 5°F (-15° C) at
the time the engine is shut off as a reminder
to avoid possible crank delays at the next
cold start.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the
original equipment tires and wheels.
TPMS pressures and warning have been
established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable system operation
or sensor damage may result when using
replacement equipment that is not of the
same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket
wheels can cause sensor damage. Using
aftermarket tire sealants may cause the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
sensor to become inoperable. After using
an aftermarket tire sealant it is
recommended that you take your vehicle to
an authorized dealer to have your sensor
function checked.
