MANUAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
(IF EQUIPPED)
1.Temperature selection:
Controls the temperature of the
airflow in the vehicle.
2.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:Uses recirculated air
through the instrument panel registers to cool the vehicle. This mode is
noisier than other modes, but is more economical and efficient and may
help prevent undesirable odors from entering the vehicle.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents.
O (OFF):Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate.
:Distributes outside air through the floor vents.
:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster vents and
floor vents.
:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster vents.
3.A/C:Uses outside air to cool the vehicle. Air flows from the
instrument panel register vents only.
4.Rear Defrost:Clears ice and fog from the rear window.
5.Fan speed adjustment:Controls the volume of air circulated in 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
air flow selector in the OFF or MAX A/C position.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•Under normal weather conditions, do not leave the air flow selector in
OFF when the vehicle is parked. This allows the vehicle to “breathe”
using the outside air inlet vents.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.

Type B
AUXILIARY POWER POINT
Power point outlets are designed
for accessory use only. Do not
hang any type of accessories or
accessory bracket from their
plugs. Improper use of the
power point outlet can cause
damage not covered by your
warranty.
Do not plug electrical accessories into the cigarette lighter socket
(if equipped). Always use the power point for accessories.
Do not use the power point for operating the cigarette lighter element.
The Maximum power each power point can supply depends on the fuse
rating. For example: a 20A fuse should supply a maximum of 240 Watts,
a 15A fuse should supply a maximum of 180 Watts. Exceeding these
limits will result in a blown fuse.
Always keep the power point caps closed when not being used.
Rear auxiliary power point (if equipped)
A second auxiliary power point is located on the rear side of the console.
It is accessible from the rear seats.
POWER WINDOWS
When closing the power
windows, you should verify
they are free of obstructions and
ensure that children and/or pets
are not in the proximity of the
window openings.
