cool down the interior of the vehicle, may reduce the energy needed to
keep the interior of the vehicle cool, and may also help reduce undesired
outside odors from reaching the interior of the vehicle. Recirculated air
is controlled automatically when AUTO is selected or can be engaged
manually in any airflow mode except
(defrost). Recirculated air
may turn off automatically in some airflow modes to reduce window
fogging potential. When the ignition switch is turned off and back on, the
climate system will return to the recirculated air mode only if the A/C
button LED is illuminated and the air distribution selection is either
AUTO,
(panel) or(panel/floor).

BULB REPLACEMENT
Headlamp condensation
Exterior lamps are vented to accommodate normal changes in pressure.
Condensation can be a natural by-product of this design. When moist air
enters the lamp assembly through the vents, condensation can occur
when the temperature is cold. When normal condensation occurs, a thin
film of mist can form on the interior of the lens. The thin mist eventually
clears and exits through the vents during normal operation. Clearing
time may take as long as 48 hours under dry weather conditions.
Examples of acceptable condensation are:
•Presence of thin mist (no streaks, drip marks or droplets)
•Fine mist covers less than 50% of the lens
Examples of unacceptable moisture (usually caused by a lamp water
leak) are:
•Water puddle inside the lamp
•Large water droplets, drip marks or streaks present on the interior of
the lens

ILLUMINATED VISOR MIRROR
Lift the mirror cover to turn on the
visor mirror lamps.
ELECTRONIC COMPASS
The compass heading is displayed as one of N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W and
NW in the center stack display.
The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antenna. Magnetic
or metallic objects placed in, on or near the vehicle may also affect
compass accuracy.
Usually, when something affects the compass readings, the compass will
correct itself after a few days of operating your vehicle in normal
conditions. If the compass still appears to be inaccurate, a manual
calibration may be necessary. Refer toCompass zone adjustment.
Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that
varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is four
degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the
vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this
error. Refer toCompass calibration adjustment.
Compass zone adjustment
1. Determine which magnetic zone
you are in for your geographic
location by referring to the zone
map.
2. Turn ignition to the on position.
3. Start the engine.

tab. It will also cause the power point to overload due to
powering multiple devices that can reach beyond the 150W load
limit.
The power point can switch to a fault mode when it is overloaded,
overheated, or shorted. For overloading and shorting conditions, unplug
your device and turn the ignition key off then on. For an overheating
condition, let the system cool off, then turn the ignition key off then on.
The 110 VAC power point can provide power whenever the vehicle
ignition is in the run position and the power point green indicator light
located in the top left corner is turned on. Refer to the indicator light
code below for the power point status.
Indicator light Code
Green light is On — Power point is ready to supply power
