DUAL ZONE MANUAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
WITH REAR PASSENGER COMPARTMENT CLIMATE CONTROL
(IF EQUIPPED)
1.Air flow selections:Controls
the direction of the airflow in the
vehicle. See the following for a brief
description on each control.
MAX A/C:Distributes recirculated
air through the instrument panel
vents only to cool the vehicle. This
re-cooling of the interior air is more
economical and efficient.
Recirculated air may also help
reduce undesirable odors from
entering the vehicle.
:Distributes air through the instrument panel vents.
:Distributes air through the instrument panel vents and the floor
vents.
O (OFF):Outside air is shut out and the climate system is turned off.
:Distributes air through the floor vents.
:Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents and floor
vents.
:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster vents. Can
be used to clear thin ice or fog from the windshield.
Auxiliary climate control operation:Turn the front air flow control
(1) to any position except O (OFF).
2. R
Rear fan speed control:Press to enable the auxiliary system
or to adjust the rear fan speed from the front control. The rear fan speed
settings available are 4, 3, 2, 1 and O (OFF).
3.REAR:Press to enable the control located in the rear seat. Press
again to turn the auxiliary system off.
4.
REARRear temperature control:Press to enable the
auxiliary system and to set the desired rear cabin airflow temperature
with the front control. The rear cabin airflow temperature will match the
driver airflow temperature setting when only the center rear temperature
light (
REAR) is illuminated. The rear cabin airflow temperature

will be warmer or cooler than the driver airflow temperature setting
when more than one rear temperature light (
REAR)is
illuminated.
5.
RRear defroster:Press to activate/deactivate rear window
defroster. Refer toRear window defrosterlater in this chapter for more
information.
6.
Recirculated air:Press to activate/deactivate air recirculation
in cabin. Recirculated air may reduce the amount of time to cool down
the interior of the vehicle and may also help reduce undesired odors
from reaching the interior of the vehicle. Recirculation engages
automatically with selection of MAX A/C or can be engaged manually in
any other airflow selection except
. Recirculation may turn off
automatically in all airflow selections except MAX A/C.
7.A/C:Press to activate/deactivate air conditioning. Use with
recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency. Engages
automatically in MAX A/C,
and.
8.Fan speed adjustment:Controls the volume of air circulated in the
vehicle.
9.Left temperature selection:Controls the temperature of the airflow
to the driver in the front of the vehicle.
10.Right temperature selection:Controls the temperature of the
airflow to the passenger in the front of the vehicle.
Operating tips
•To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather, place
the air flow selector in the
position.
•To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle: do not drive with the
airflow selector in the O (OFF) or with recirculated air engaged.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.

•For maximum cooling performance (MAX A/C):
In the MAX A/C mode:
•Move the temperature control selector to the coldest setting.
•Set the fan to the highest speed initially, then adjust to maintain
passenger comfort.
In the
andmodes:
•Move the temperature control selector to the coldest setting.
•Select A/C and recirculated air
. Usewith A/C to provide
colder airflow.
•Set the fan to the highest speed initially, then adjust to maintain
passenger comfort.
In extremely cold temperatures, to maximize overall heater performance
it is suggested to not operate the auxiliary system (if so equipped) until
the engine temperature gauge crosses into the normal operating range.
To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather:
1. Select
.
2. Select A/C.
3. Set the temperature control to full heat.
4. Set the fan speed to the highest setting.
5. Direct the outer instrument panel vents towards the side windows.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.
