Automatic Headlamp System
When it is dark enough outside, your automatic
headlamp system will turn on your headlamps at the
normal brightness along with other lamps such as
the taillamps, sidemarker, parking lamps and the
instrument panel lights. The radio lights will also be on.
Your vehicle is equipped with a light sensor on the
top of the instrument panel. Be sure it is not covered or
the system will be on whenever the ignition is on.
The system may also turn on your lights when driving
through a parking garage, heavy overcast weather
or a tunnel. This is normal.
There is a delay in the transition between the daytime
and nighttime operation
of the Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL) and the automatic headlamp systems,
so
that driving under bridges or bright overhead street
lights does not affect the system. The DRL and
automatic headlamp system will only be affected when
the light sensor sees a change in lighting lasting
longer than the delay. If
you start your vehicle in a dark garage, the automatic
headlamp system will come on immediately. Once
you leave the garage, it will take approximately
one minute for the automatic headlamp system to
change to DRL
if it is light outside. During that delay,
your instrument panel cluster may not be as bright
as usual. Make sure your instrument panel brightness
control is in the full bright position.
To idle your vehicle with the automatic headlamp
system off, set the parking brake while the ignition is off.
Then start your vehicle. The automatic headlamp
system will stay off until you release the parking brake,
shift out
of park or turn the exterior lamp control to
the
off position as described in “Exterior Lamps”.
Lamps On Reminder
A reminder tone will sound when your headlamps or
parking lamps are manually turned on, the driver’s door
is open and your ignition is in LOCK or ACCESSORY.
To turn the tone off, turn the knob all the way
counterclockwise. In the automatic mode, the headlamps
turn
off once the ignition key is in LOCK.

Climate Controls
Dual Automatic Climate Control
System
Your vehicle may have the optional dual automatic
climate control system. With this system you can control
the heating, cooling and ventilation for your vehicle.
When your vehicle is first started, the display will show
the driver’s temperature setting and air delivery mode for
five seconds. Then it will show the outside temperature.
0 (Off): Press this button to turn off the entire climate
control system. Outside air will still enter the vehicle,
and will be directed to the floor. Press the AUTO button,
the mode button, the fan arrows, or either temperature
knob to turn the system on.
Q., *d (Mode): Press this button to manually select the air
delivery mode to the floor, instrument panel, or
windshield outlets. The system will stay in the selected
mode until the mode button is pressed again or the
AUTO button is pressed.
Driver’s Side Temperature Knob: Turn this knob
clockwise or counterclockwise to manually raise or lower
the temperature on the driver’s side of the vehicle. The
display will show the temperature setting decreasing or
increasing and the word “DRIVER” will light up. This knob
can also adjust the passenger’s side temperature setting
simultaneously
if the two zones are linked. The words
“DRIVER and PASS” will then light up.
Passenger’s Side Temperature Knob: Turn this knob
clockwise or counterclockwise to manually raise or lower
the temperature on the passenger’s side of the vehicle.
The display will show the temperature setting decreasing
or increasing and the word “PASS” will light up. The
passenger’s temperature setting can be set to match and
link to the driver’s temperature setting by pressing and
holding the AUTO button for three seconds. By adjusting
the driver’s side temperature setting, the passenger’s
side temperature setting will follow and both “DRIVER
and PASS” will be displayed. The passenger’s side
temperature setting also resets and relinks to the driver’s
side temperature setting
if the vehicle has been off for
more than two hours.

Audio System(s)
Notice: Before you add any sound equipment to
your vehicle
- like a tape player, CB radio, mobile
telephone or two-way radio
- be sure you can
add what you want. If you can,
it’s very important to
do
it properly. Added sound equipment may
interfere with the operation
of your vehicle’s engine,
Delphi Electronics radio or other systems, and
even damage them. Your vehicle’s systems may interfere with the operation
of sound equipment that
has been added improperly.
So, before adding sound equipment, check with
your dealer and be sure to check federal rules covering mobile radio and telephone units.
Your audio system has been designed
to operate easily
and
to give years of listening pleasure. You will get the
most enjoyment out of it
if you acquaint yourself with it
first. Find out what your audio system can do and how
to
operate all of its controls to be sure you’re getting the
most out of the advanced engineering that went into it.
Your vehicle has a feature called Retained Accessory
Power (RAP). With RAP, you can play your audio
system even after the ignition is turned
off. See
“Retained Accessory Power (RAP)” under

Cassette Tape Messages
If an error occurs while trying to play a cassette tape, it
could be for one of the following reasons:
TIGHT TAPE: When this message is displayed, the
tape is tight and the player can’t turn the tape hubs.
Remove the tape. Hold the tape with the open end down
and try
to turn the right hub counterclockwise with a
pencil. Turn the tape over and repeat. If the hubs do not
turn easily, your tape may be damaged and should
not be used in the player. Try a new tape
to make sure
your player is working properly.
BROKEN TAPE: If this message is displayed, the tape
is broken. Try a new tape.
WRAPPED: When this message is displayed, the tape
is wrapped around the tape head. Attempt to get the
cassette out. Try a new tape.
CLEAN PLAYR (Clean Player): This message may
also appear on the radio display
to indicate that
the cassette tape player needs
to be cleaned. It will still
play tapes, but you should clean it as soon as possible
to prevent damage to the tapes and player. For
additional information see
Care of Your Cassette Tape
Player on page 3-90.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can’t be
corrected, contact your dealer. If your radio displays an
error message, write it down and provide
it to your
dealer when reporting the problem.
Playing a Compact Disc
With the ignition on, insert a disc partway into the slot,
label side up. The player will pull it in and the disc should
begin playing. If you want
