Inadvertent Power Battery Saver
This feature is designed to protect your vehicle's battery

glove box lamp or cigarette lighters. When the ignition
is turned off, the power to these features will
automatically turn off after 10 minutes. Power will be
restored for an additional 10 minutes if any door is
opened, the trunk is opened or the courtesy lamp switch
is turned on. To restore power back to the cigarette
lighters the ignition must be turned back to RUN.
Battery Load Management
The battery load management feature is designed to
monitor the vehicle's electrical load and determine when
the battery is in a heavy discharge condition. During
times of high electrical loading, the engine may idle at
higher revolutions per minute (rpm) than normal to
make sure the battery charges. High electrical loads may
occur when several of the following are on: headlamps,
high beams, fog lamps, rear window defogger, high
blower fan, heated seats and engine cooling fans.

Mode Buttons
You may choose the direction of air delivery by
selecting one of the five mode control buttons.
PANEL: This setting directs airflow through the
upper air outlets located in the instrument panel.
BI-LEVEL: This setting directs airflow through
both the upper air outlets and the lower floor outlets.
There is also a small amount of air directed to the front
defroster and the side window defrosters.
FLOOR: This setting directs most of the airflow
to the lower floor outlets with some airflow directed to
the side window defrosters. There is also a small amount
of airflow directed to the front defroster.
DEFOG: This setting directs most of the airflow
to the lower floor outlets and the front windshield
defroster. A small amount of airflow is directed to the
side window defroster outlets. This mode can be useful
to remove the moisture from the inside of the windshield
when the outside temperature is cold or the humidity
is high.
FRONT: This setting directs most of the airflow
to the front windshield defroster with some airflow to
the side window defrosters and lower floor outlets.
To improve windshield clearing performance when you
select FRONT defrost, your air conditioning compressor
will run automatically above approximately 40
F (4
C).
This dehumidifies the air to help dry the windshield.
Even though the compressor may be running, the A/C
light will not come on in FRONT defrost unless you
select A/C.
Recirc Button
RECIRC: Press this button to limit the amount
of outside air entering your vehicle. This is helpful when
you are trying to quickly cool the interior of the vehicle
or to limit odors entering the vehicle. RECIRC may be
selected in all manual airflow modes except FRONT
defrost. If you select RECIRC while in defrost, the
RECIRC light will flash to let you know that this is
not allowed. This is to help prevent fogging.

Manual Operation
You may also manually adjust the air delivery mode or
fan speed.
FLOOR: Manually selecting FLOOR mode by
cycling through the MODE settings will deliver air to
the floor outlets.
DEFOG: Manually selecting DEFOG by cycling
through the MODE settings will deliver air to the floor
and windshield outlets.
BI-LEVEL: Manually selecting BI-LEVEL

warm air to the floor and cooler air to the instrument
panel outlets.
PANEL: Manually selecting PANEL by cycling
through the MODE setting will deliver air to the
instrument panel outlets.
DRIVER PUSH OFF: Press this knob to turn the
system off. Some fresh air will continue to flow through
the vehicle from the FLOOR outlets, and the system will
try to maintain the previously chosen comfort setting.PASSENGER PUSH OFF: Press this knob to cancel
the passenger's set temperature. The passenger's set
temperature will be set equal to the driver's set
temperature. Both the words DRIVER and PASS will be
displayed under the set temperature in the display area.
A/C: Press this button to turn the air conditioning
compressor on and off. When A/C is selected or in
AUTO mode, the system will run the A/C automatically
to cool and dehumidify the air inside the vehicle. If you
select A/C OFF while in FRONT defrost, the A/C OFF
text will flash to let you know this is not allowed. This is
to prevent fogging.
RECIRC: Press this button to limit the amount
of outside air entering your vehicle. You may use this
setting to limit odors entering your vehicle. Press
RECIRC to recirculate inside air until the RECIRC
button is pressed again or the OUTSIDE AIR button
is pressed.
If you select RECIRC while in defrost the RECIRC light
will flash to let you know this is not allowed. This is to
prevent fogging.

3-10 Rear Window Defogger
The lines you see on the
rear window warm the
glass. Press the button to
start warming your window.
A light will glow in the
button while the defogger
is working.
If your vehicle is equipped with heated mirrors, this
button will activate them.
After 10 minutes it will turn off by itself, or press the
button during the heating cycle to turn it off. If you need
additional warming time, push the button again. The
system will then operate for five minutes before turning
off by itself. If your speed is maintained over 30 mph
(48 km/h), the rear defog will not turn off automatically
to help keep the rear glass clear.
Do not attach a temporary vehicle license, tape or decals
across the defogger grid on the rear window.NOTICE:
Do not try to clear frost or other material from
the inside of the rear window with a razor blade
or anything else that is sharp. This may damage
the defogger grid. The repairs wouldn't be
covered by your warranty.
Ventilation System
For mild outside temperatures when little heating or
cooling is needed, use the panel outlet setting (on the
standard system) to direct outside air through your
vehicle. Air will flow through the instrument
panel outlets.
Your vehicle's flow
-through ventilation system supplies
outside air into the vehicle when it's moving. When the
vehicle is not moving, you can get outside air to flow
through by selecting any air delivery mode and any
fan speed.
