MIRRORS
Inside Day/Night Mirror
A single ball joint mirror is provided in the
vehicle. It is a twist on mirror that has a fixed
position. The mirror head can be adjusted up,
down, left, and right for various drivers. The
mirror should be adjusted to center on the view
through the rear window.
Headlight glare from vehicles behind you can
be reduced by moving the small control under
the mirror to the night position (toward the rear
of the vehicle). The mirror should be adjusted
while set in the day position (toward the wind-
shield).
Automatic Dimming Mirror — If
Equipped
This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight
glare from vehicles behind you. You can turn
the feature on or off by pressing the button at
the base of the mirror. A light in the button will
illuminate to indicate when the dimming feature
is activated. The mirror is twisted on the wind-
shield button counterclockwise and requires no
tools for mounting.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the mirror during clean-
ing, never spray any cleaning solution directly
onto the mirror. Apply the solution onto a clean
cloth and wipe the mirror clean.
Outside MirrorsTo receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside
mirrors to center on the adjacent lane of traffic
with a slight overlap of the view obtained on the
inside mirror.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in the pas-
senger side convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than they really are. Relying
too much on your passenger side convex
mirror could cause you to collide with another
vehicle or other object. Use your inside mirror
when judging the size or distance of a vehicle
seen in the passenger side convex mirror.
Some vehicles will not have a convex passen-
ger side mirror.

To provide you with maximum comfort in the
Automatic mode, during cold start-ups the
blower fan will remain on low until the engine
warms up. The blower will increase in speed
and transition into Auto mode.
Manual Operation
This system offers a full complement of manual
override features.
NOTE:
Each of these features operate indepen-
dently from each other. If any one feature is
controlled manually, temperature control
will continue to operate automatically.There are seven fixed
blower speeds. Use
the outer dial control
to regulate the amount
of air forced through
the system in any
mode you select. The
blower speed in-
creases as you move
the control clockwise
and decreases when you move the control
counter-clockwise. The blower fan speed can be set to any fixed
speed by adjusting the blower control outer
dial. The fan will now operate at a fixed speed
until additional speeds are selected. This al-
lows the front occupants to control the volume
of air circulated in the vehicle and cancel the
Auto mode.
The operator can also select the direction of the
airflow by selecting one of the following posi-
tions.
Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the instru-
ment panel. Each of these outlets can be
individually adjusted to direct the flow of
air. The air vanes of the center outlets and
outboard outlets can be moved up and down or
side to side to regulate airflow direction. There
is a shut off wheel located below the air vanes
to shut off or adjust the amount of airflow from
these outlets.
Bi-Level Mode Air comes from the instrument panel
outlets, floor outlets and defrost outlets. NOTE:
In many temperature positions, the BI-
LEVEL mode is designed to provide cooler
air out of the panel outlets and warmer air
from the floor outlets.
Floor Mode
Air comes from the floor outlets. A slight
amount of air is directed through the
defrost and side window demister out-
lets.
Mix Mode Air comes from the floor, defrost and
side window demist outlets. This mode
works best in cold or snowy conditions.
It allows you to stay comfortable while
keeping the windshield clear.
Defrost Mode Air comes from the windshield and side
window demist outlets. Use Defrost
mode with maximum temperature set-
tings for best windshield and side window
defrosting. When the defrost mode is selected,
the blower will automatically default to medium-
high unless the blower is controlled manually.

13. Have the aluminum road wheel and tire
repaired as soon as possible, properly secure
the spare tire with the special wing nut torqued
to 3.7 ft-lbs (5 N·m), reinstall the jack and tool
kit foam tray, and latch the rear load floor cover.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack, thrown forward in a
collision or hard stop could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the jack
parts and the spare tire in the places provided.
Have the deflated (flat) tire repaired or re-
placed immediately.
Road Tire Installation
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone
shaped end of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly
tighten the lug nuts.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the
jack, do not tighten the wheel nuts fully until
the vehicle has been lowered. Failure to follow
this warning may result in personal injury.
3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning
the jack handle counterclockwise.
4. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on
the wrench while at the end of the handle for
increased leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a
star pattern until each nut has been tightened
twice. The correct tightness of each lug nut is
110 ft/lbs (150 N·m). If in doubt about the
correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by your authorized dealer or
service station. 5. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug nut
torque with a torque wrench to ensure that all
lug nuts are properly seated against the wheel.

NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster pack
follow the manufacturer’s operating instruc-
tions and precautions.
