²Remove any snow, ice or leaves
from the air intake area (at the
bottom of the windshield under
the hood).
²If your vehicle has been parked with the windows closed during hot
weather, the air conditioner will do a much faster job of cooling if you
drive for two or three minutes with the windows open. This will force
most of the hot, stale air out of the vehicle. Then operate your air
conditioner as you would normally.
²When placing objects on top of your instrument panel, be careful to
not place them over the defroster outlets. These objects can block
airflow and reduce your ability to see through your windshield. Also,
avoid placing small objects on top of your instrument panel. These
objects can fall down into the defroster outlets and block airflow and
possibly damage your climate control system.
²If the air conditioner works well in MAX A/C, but not in any other
mode when the A/C control is selected, this may indicate that the
odor and particulate air filter (if equipped) needs to be replaced.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel, as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.
Rear passenger compartment air conditioning system (if equipped)
This system allows the rear seat occupants to adjust their air
conditioning comfort level.

Turning the EATC off
Press OFF.
Automatic operation
Press AUTOMATIC and select the desired temperature. The selected
temperature and the word AUTO will appear in the display window. The
EATC system will either heat or cool to achieve the selected
temperature. The system will automatically determine fan speed, airflow
location and if outside air or recirculated air is required. Fan speed
remains automatic unless the fan speed control is turned.
When in AUTOMATIC and weather conditions require heat, air will be
sent to the front and rear floor ducts. However, if the engine is not warm
enough to provide heat, the fan will be at a low speed and the air will be
directed to the windshield. In 3
1¤2minutes or less, the fan speed will
start to increase and the airflow location will change to the front and
rear floor area.
If unusual conditions exist (i.e. window fogging, etc.), the manual
override controls allow you to adjust the mode selector and fan speed
controls as necessary.
Temperature selection
The display window indicates the
selected temperature, function
(AUTO or one of the override
controls) and manual control of fan
speed (
) if automatic fan speed is not desired.
