Window Fogging
In mild but rainy or humid weather, windows will fog on
the inside. To rapidly clear the fog off all the windows,
select the defrost mode, turn the temperature control
knob fully clockwise, and position the blower control to
its highest speed. Once the windshield has been cleared,
adjust the controls for your comfort.
On air conditioned vehicles, the compressor will operate
when in the Mix or Defrost modes and when the outside
temperature is approximately 30ÉF (-1ÉC) to provide
additional defrost/defog.
Summer Operation
Air conditioned vehicles must be protected with a high
quality anti-freeze coolant during summer to provide
proper corrosion protection and to raise the boiling point
of the coolant for protection against overheating. A 50%
concentration is recommended.
Winter Operation
When operating the system during the winter months,
make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the
windshield, is free of ice, slush, snow, or other obstruc-
tions.
REAR WINDOW FEATURES
Rear Window Wiper/Washer
A rotary ring switch on the control lever, located on the
right side of the steering column, controls operation of
the rear wiper/washer function. Rotating the center of
the switch up to the DEL (Delay) position or the ON
position will activate the wiper. Rotating the switch ring
beyond the ON or OFF position will activate the rear
washer. The wash pump will continue to operate as long
as the lever or ring is engaged. Upon release, the wipers
will cycle three times before returning to the set position.

CHANGING A FLAT TIRE
Jack And Lug Wrench Locations
The jack, jack handle, and lug wrench are stored beneath
the right rear seat. To remove the jack from its stowage
position, turn the thumb screw counterclockwise to
loosen jack assembly and then remove it.
WARNING!
²Always store the jack, lug wrench and spare, flat
or damaged tire securely in the proper place.
Never leave them loose in the vehicle where they
could become dangerous projectiles during a
quick stop or collision.
²The jack is designed to use as a tool for changing
tires only. The jack should not be used to lift the
vehicle for service purposes, unless suitable sup-
ports are placed under the vehicle as a safety
measure. The vehicle should be jacked on a firm
level surface only. Avoid ice or slippery areas.

5. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack handle clockwise
until the tire clears the ground.
WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make
the vehicle less stable and cause an accident. It could
slip off the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the
vehicle only enough to remove the tire.
6. Remove the lug nuts and wheel.
7. Position the spare wheel/tire on the vehicle and install
lug nuts with cone-shaped end toward wheel. Lightly
tighten nuts clockwise. To avoid the risk of forcing the
vehicle off the jack, do not tighten the nuts fully until the
vehicle has been lowered.
8. Lower the vehicle by using a counterclockwise rota-
tion to lower the jack.
