dial set at your desired temperature, the
system automatically adjusts the tempera-
ture of air supplied from the outlets such
that the desired temperature is achieved
and maintained.
If the dial is turned fully counterclockwise,
the system gives maximum cooling per-
formance. If the dial is turned fully clock-
wise, the system gives maximum heatingperformance. !

Temperature sensors
1) Solar sensor
2) Interior air temperature sensor
The automatic climate control system
employs several sensors. These sensors
are delicate. If they are treated incorrectly
and become damaged, the system may
not be able to control the interior tempera-
ture correctly. To avoid damaging the
sensors, observe the following precau-tions: – Do not subject the sensors to impact.
– Keep water away from the sensors.
– Do not cover the sensors.
The sensors are located as follows:– Solar sensor: beside windshield defros-
ter grille Climate control

Antenna system &Printed antenna
CAUTION
Do not use sharp instruments or
window cleaner containing abra-
sives to clean the inner surface of
the window on which the antenna is
printed. Doing so may damage the
antenna printed on the window.
Sedan
Station wagon
The antenna is printed on the inner
surface of the rear window glass. & FM reception
Although FM is normally static free,
reception can be affected by the surround-
ing area, atmospheric conditions, station
strength and transmitter distance. Build-
ings or other obstructions may cause
momentary static, flutter or station inter-
ference. If reception continues to be
unsatisfactory, switch to a stronger station. XM
TMSatellite radio recep-
tion (if equipped) XM
TMis a continental U.S. based satellite
radio service that offers more than 160
coast to coast channels, including music,
news, sports, talk and children ’s program-
ming. XM
TMprovides digital quality audio
and text information, including song title
and artist name. A service fee is required
to receive the XM
TMservice. For more
information, contact XMTMatwww.xmradio.com or call 1-800-XM-
RADIO (1-800-967-2346).
The XM
TMsatellite radio receiver that is
fitted to your vehicle receives the neces-
sary signals from two specially designated
satellites that are in a geostationary orbit
over the equator. One satellite covers the
east coast and the other covers the west
coast. Both of them direct their signals
north. These signals are then relayed
throughout the USA by a network of
ground repeater stations. The satellite
radio signals are transmitted as “line of
sight ”signals. Line of sight signals can be
blocked by objects such as buildings, but
the network of repeater stations allows
signal coverage within urban areas such
as cities.
You may experience problems in receiving

XMTMsatellite radio signals in the follow-
ing situations. . If you are driving northward in a coastal
area
You will notice that the XM
TMsatellite
radio antenna is fixed to the upper right
hand corner of your windscreen.
The signal comes from the south and may
not be able to reach the antenna in some
circumstances when you are driving north.
. If you are driving in a tunnel or a
covered parking area . If you are driving beneath the top level
of a multi-level freeway. If you drive under a bridge
. If you are driving next to a tall vehicle
(such as a truck or a bus) that blocks the signal . If you are driving in a valley where the
surrounding hills or peaks block the signal
from the south . If you are driving on a mountain road
where the southern direction is blocked by mountains. If you are driving in an area with tall
trees that block the signal (10 m or more),
for example on a road that goes through a
dense forest . The signal can become weak in some
areas that are not covered by the repeater
station network.
Please note that these may be other
unforeseen circumstances when there
are problems with the reception of XM
TM
satellite radio signals. Audio
