CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION (CVT)
• While conventional automatic transmissions typically have 4, 5 or 6 speeds,the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) has an infinite number of speeds.
This allows it to adjust to exactly the right ratio to optimize performance and fuel
economy.
•
Under hard acceleration, you may hear more engine noise than with a conventional
transmission. The CVT may also occasionally feel like it is “shifting.” These charac-
teristics are perfectly normal and contribute to the CVT's efficiency.
MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROLS
Air Recirculation
• Use Recirculation for maximum A/C operation.
• For window defogging, turn the Recirculation button off.
• Recirculation is allowed in floor mode and defrost/floor (mix mode) for approxi- mately five minutes.
Heated Mirrors
• The mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice. This feature is activated whenever youturn on the rear window defroster.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
24

POWER OUTLET
• The power outlet is located on the instrument panel below the climate control andis powered when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN position.
• The outlet can operate a conventional cigar lighter unit or power accessories designed for use with a standard power outlet adapter.
NOTE:
•
Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the 160 Watt
(13 Amp) power rating is exceeded, the fuse protecting the system will need to be
replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not insert any other object in the power outlet as this will damage the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use
of the power outlet can cause damage not covered by your new vehicle warranty.
