GAUGES
Engine coolant temperature gauge
Indicates the temperature of the
engine coolant. At normal operating
temperature, the needle remains
within the normal area (the area
between the “H” and “C”).
If it enters the red section, the
engine is overheating. Stop the
vehicle as soon as safely
possible, switch off the engine
immediately and let the engine cool.
Refer toEngine coolant in theMaintenance and specifications
chapter.
WARNING: Never remove the coolant reservoir cap and/or the
radiator cap while the engine is running or hot, this may result
in serious burns.
NOTE: This gauge indicates the temperature of the engine coolant, not
the coolant level. If the coolant is not at its proper level the gauge
indication will not be accurate.

Operating tips
•In humid weather, place the climate control system in DEF before
driving. This will reduce fogging on your windshield. Once the
windshield has been cleared, select any desired position.
• To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle, do not drive with the
climate control system in the OFF position.
• Under normal weather conditions, your vehicle’s climate control
system should be left in any position other than OFF position when
the vehicle is parked. This allows the vehicle to “breathe” through the
outside air inlet duct.
• Under snowy or dirty weather conditions, your vehicle’s climate
control system should be left in the OFF position when the vehicle is
parked. This allows the climate control system to be free from
contamination of outside pollutants.
• Do not place objects under the front seat which may interfere with
the airflow to the rear seats.
• Remove any snow, ice, or leaves from the air intake area (at the base
of the windshield and underneath the hood).
• Do not place objects over the defroster outlets. These objects may
block airflow and reduce your visibility through the windshield. Avoid
placing small objects on top of the instrument panel. These objects
can fall into the defroster outlets and block airflow, in addition to,
damaging your climate control system.
WARNING: Do not place objects on top of the instrument
panel, as these objects may become projectiles in a collision or
sudden stop.

•Under snowy or dirty weather conditions, your vehicle’s climate
control system should be left in the OFF position when the vehicle is
parked. This allows the climate control system to be free from
contamination of outside pollutants.
• If your vehicle has been parked with the windows closed during warm
weather conditions, the air conditioner will perform more efficiently in
cooling the vehicle if driven for two or three minutes with the
windows open. This will force most of the hot, stale air out of the
vehicle. Once the vehicle has been “aired out”, operate the climate
control system as desired.
• Do not put objects under the front seat which may interfere with the
airflow to the rear seats (if equipped).
• Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area (at the
bottom of the windshield and underneath the hood).
• Do not place objects over the defroster outlets. These objects can
block airflow and reduce visibility through your windshield. Avoid
placing small objects on top of the instrument panel. These objects
may fall down into the defroster outlets and block airflow, in addition
to, damaging the climate control system.
To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather conditions: 1. Select the position that distributes air through the Panel and Floor.
2. Set the temperature control to full heat.
3. Set the fan speed to full fan.
4. Direct the outer panel vents towards the side windows.
5. To increase airflow to the outer panel vents, close the central panel vents.
WARNING: Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel
as these objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden
stop.

WARNING: Always remember to turn on your headlamps at
dusk or during inclement weather. The Daytime Running Lamp
(DRL) system does not activate with your tail lamps and
generally may not provide adequate lighting during these
conditions. Failure to activate your headlamps under these
conditions may result in a collision.

Replacing headlamp bulbsWARNING: Handling Halogen Bulbs: When a halogen bulb
breaks, it is dangerous. These bulbs contain pressurized gas. If
one is broken, it will explode and serious injuries could be
caused by the flying glass. If the glass portion of the bulb is
touched with bare hands, body oil could cause the bulb to
overheat and explode when lit. Never touch the glass portion of
the bulb with your bare hands and always wear eye protection
when handling or working around halogen bulbs.
Children and Halogen Bulbs: Playing with a halogen bulb is
dangerous. Serious injuries could be caused by dropping a
halogen bulb or breaking in some other way. Always keep
halogen bulbs out of the reach of children.
To remove the headlamp bulb: 1. Make sure headlamp switch is in OFF position, then open the
hood.
2. At the back of the headlamp, pry up the two retainer pins to
release the headlamp assembly
from the vehicle and pull
headlamp forward.
3. Remove the bulb retaining ring by rotating it counterclockwise
(when viewed from the rear) to
free it from the bulb socket, and
slide the ring off the plastic
base. Keep the ring to retain the
new bulb.
4. Without turning, remove the old bulb by gently pulling it straight
back out of the lamp assembly.
