The air condition operates in MAX A/C and when the A/C control is
depressed. However, the air conditioning will only function if the outside
temperature is about 4°C (40°F) or higher.
Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the air
during operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under
the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you
have stopped the vehicle.
•MAX A/C–Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. MAX A/C is
noisier than A/C modes but more economical and will cool the inside
of the vehicle faster. In this mode, the air conditioning will
automatically engage if the outside temperature is about 4°C (40°F) or
higher and the
A/Cindicator will automatically light. Airflow will be
from the instrument panel registers. This mode can also be used to
prevent undesirable odors from entering the vehicle.
•
(Panel)–Distributes outside air through the instrument panel
registers. Heating and air conditioning capabilities are provided in this
mode. Push
A/Cto cool the vehicle below the outside temperature.
•OFF–Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate. For short
periods of time only, use this mode to reduce undesirable odors from
entering the vehicle.
•
(Panel and floor)–Distributes outside air through the
instrument panel registers and the front and rear floor ducts. Heating
and air conditioning capabilities are provided in this mode. Push
A/C
in order to cool the vehicle below the outside temperature. For added
customer comfort, when the temperature control knob is anywhere in
between the full hot and full cold positions, the air distributed through
the front and rear floor ducts will be slightly warmer than the air sent
to the instrument panel registers.
•
(Floor)–Distributes outside air through the front and rear floor
ducts. Heating and air conditioning capabilities are provided in this
mode. Push
A/Cin order to cool the vehicle below the outside
temperature.
Operating tips
•In humid weather conditions, place the climate control system in
Defrost mode before driving. This will reduce fogging on your
windshield. Once the windshield has been cleared, operate the climate
control system as desired.
•To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle in cold weather
conditions, don’t drive with the climate control system in the OFF or
MAX A/C position.

•(Defrost) - Distributes outside air through the windshield
defroster ducts. It can be used to clear ice or fog from the windshield.
If the temperature is about 4°C (40°F) or higher, the air conditioner
will automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.
•
(Panel) - Distributes outside air through the instrument panel
registers. Heating and air conditioning capabilities are provided in this
mode. Push
A/Cto cool the vehicle below the outside temperature.
•
(Panel and floor) - Distributes outside air through the instrument
panel registers and the front and rear floor ducts. Heating and air
conditioning capabilities are provided in this mode. Push
A/Cto cool
the vehicle below the outside temperature. For added customer
comfort, when the temperature control is anywhere in between the
full hot and full cold, the air distributed through the front and rear
floor ducts will be slightly warmer than the air sent to the instrument
panel registers.
•
(Floor) - Allows for maximum heating by distributing outside air
through the front and rear floor ducts. Heating and air conditioning
capabilities are provided in this mode. Push
A/Cto cool the vehicle
below the outside temperature.
•MAX A/C - Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. MAX A/C is
noisier than
A/CA/C but more economical and will cool the inside of
the vehicle faster. After pressing the MAX control, both the MAX
and
A/CA/C indicators will light and the airflow will be from the
instrument panel registers. In this mode, the air conditioning will
automatically engage if the outside temperature is about 4°C (40°F) or
higher.
Cooling your vehicle with outside air using override controls
Cooling your vehicle with air conditioned outside air using just the A/C
override control is quieter but less economical than using both the A/C
and the MAX control. It also has less cooling capacity and is not
recommended for high outside temperatures.
In order to cool your vehicle with outside air using the override controls:
1. Select the override control
,or.
2. Press
A/C. The indicator light onA/Cwill illuminate.
3. Select the desired temperature for your comfort level.
4. Adjust the fan speed override knob to the position of your choice.

HEADLAMP CONTROL
Rotate the headlamp control
clockwise to the first position to
turn on the parking lamps. Rotate
clockwise to the second position to

Autolamp control (if equipped)
The autolamp system provides light
sensitive automatic on-off control of
the low-beam exterior lights
normally controlled by the headlamp
control.
The autolamp system also keeps the
lights on for a preselected period of
time after the ignition switch is
turned to OFF.
•To turn autolamps on, rotate the
headlamp control counter clockwise to one of the two settings. The
AUTO 1 position has a preselected time lapse of approximately 25
seconds. The AUTO 2 position has a preselected time lapse of
approximately 2
1⁄2minutes.
•To turn autolamps off, rotate the headlamp control clockwise to the
OFF position.
Foglamp control (if equipped)
Turn on the low-beam headlamps
and press the foglamp control to
activate the foglamps. The foglamp
control will illuminate when the
foglamps are on.
Press the foglamp control a second
time to deactivate the foglamps.

Arming the system
When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash headlamp lamps,
tail lamps and the security indicator lamp, chirp the horn and disable the
starting system.
The system is ready to arm whenever the key is removed from the
ignition. Any of the following actions will prearm the alarm system:
•Lock the doors with the remote
transmitter (doors opened or
closed). The horn will chirp (if all
doors are closed) to confirm that
the control was pressed. The
horn chirp feature can be turned
on/off by holding the LOCK and
UNLOCK controls on the
transmitter simultaneously for
two seconds. The hazard lights
will flash three times each time
the system is toggled between active and non-active modes.
•Open a door and press the power door lock control to lock the doors.
If a door is open, the system is
prearmed and is waiting for the door
to close. Once all the doors are
closed, the security indicator lamp
on the instrument panel will
illuminate continuously when the
system is prearmed.
The system will arm in 30 seconds
and the security indicator lamp will
begin to flash.
