Comfort Controls This section tells you how to make your air system work for you. Manual operation of the system is described first, followed by automatic operation. See “Automatic Operation” later in this section for more information. Climate Control System

∧ (Mode): This switch selects the direction of

Manual Operation To turn the system on, press the PWR button located on the driver’s side of the climate control panel. ∨ the airflow through the vehicle. Press the up or down arrow to scroll through the available modes. The symbol for the current mode will be displayed on the climate control panel. Regardless of the mode selected, there will be some air flowing to the outboard outlets unless you close the outlet. See “Ventilation System” later in this section for more information. The following modes can be selected:

(Vent): This setting directs the airflow through

the instrument panel outlets.

(Bi-Level): This setting directs airflow into your vehicle in two ways. Cooler air is directed to the upper portion of your body through the instrument panel outlets while warmer air is directed to the floor ducts.

3-2

D

(Floor/Defrost): This setting directs airflow to the floor ducts and toward the windshield, with some air diverted toward the outboard outlets to defog the side windows.

(Floor): This setting directs airflow

through the floor ducts. Some air is diverted to the windshield and outboard outlets to minimize fogging.

∧ (Fan): This switch adjusts the fan speed. ∨ Press the up or down arrow to increase or decrease the fan speed.

(Recirculation): Press this button to limit the

amount of outside air entering your vehicle. This is helpful when you are trying to cool the air quickly or limit odors entering your vehicle. Press this button again to turn off the recirculation feature. If you notice the windows fogging, turn off the recirculation feature. Recirculation is not available in the defrost mode and will automatically turn off after 10 minutes if floor/defrost mode is selected.

(Defrost): Press this button to quickly remove fog or frost from the windshield. This setting sends most of the airflow to the windshield with a small amount diverted to the outboard outlets to minimize fogging. The air conditioning compressor may operate in this mode. A/C OFF (Air Conditioning Off): Press this button to turn off the air conditioning compressor. AC OFF will appear on the display. Press the button again to turn the compressor back on. When the compressor is on, the system will cool and dehumidify the air inside the vehicle. The compressor cannot be turned off in defrost mode.

(Driver’s Temperature Switch): This switch is used to adjust the air temperature for the driver’s side of the vehicle. To adjust the temperature, press the up or down arrow located on the PWR button. The temperature will increase or decrease with each press of an arrow. The driver’s set temperature is always displayed when the climate control system is on regardless of whether or not the system is in AUTO. See “Automatic Operation” later in this section for more information on the AUTO button.

3-3

 (Passenger’s Temperature Switch): This switch is used to increase or decrease the temperature of the air for the passengers independent of the driver’s setting. To turn the system on, press the PWR button located on the passenger’s side of the climate control panel. To adjust the temperature, press the up or down arrow on the PWR button. The temperature will increase or decrease with each press of an arrow. If the passenger’s temperature switch is off, the driver’s temperature switch controls the temperature for the entire vehicle. The passenger’s side temperature is only displayed when the passenger’s side temperature switch is on.

Automatic Operation AUTO (Automatic Climate Control): This button is used to select the automatic operation of the climate control system. When the automatic operation is active, AUTO will appear next to the fan and mode settings on the display.

There are three sensors in the climate control system. One monitors the sun’s solar radiation, another monitors temperature of the air inside the vehicle, and a third monitors the temperature outside the vehicle. The climate control system will vary the fan speed, air delivery mode and use of the air conditioning compressor to maintain the set temperature based on the information received from these sensors. See “Driver’s Temperature Switch” and “Passenger’s Temperature Switch” listed previously for more information on setting a temperature. To find your comfort zone, start with the 75_F (24_C) setting and allow approximately 10 to 30 minutes for the system to regulate. Adjust the temperature if necessary. If you choose either the lowest temperature setting, 60_F (16_C), or the highest temperature setting, 90_F (32_C), the system will not cool or heat any faster, but the system will stay at that setting without regulating fan speed. To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system will start at lower fan speeds until warm air is available. The length of reduction depends on the outside air temperature, engine coolant temperature or the time since the engine was last started. As the engine coolant warms up, the fan speed will gradually increase.

3-4

Interior Temperature Sensor

Electronic Solar Sensor

This sensor monitors the interior temperature of the vehicle. It is located to the right of the steering wheel on the instrument panel.

While the climate control system is in AUTO, the system uses both the interior temperature sensor and the electronic solar sensor to automatically adjust the temperature and airflow in the vehicle. See “Electronic Solar Sensor” following for more information. Be sure not to cover the sensor with anything. If you do, the automatic climate control system will not work properly.

This sensor monitors the sun’s solar radiation. It is located on top of the instrument panel near the windshield. While the climate control system is in AUTO, the system uses the information collected by the electronic solar sensor to automatically adjust the temperature and airflow to maintain your comfort. The climate control system may supply cooler air to one side of your vehicle, if that side is facing the sun. Be sure not to cover the sensor on top of the instrument panel. If you do, the automatic climate control system will not work properly.

Air Conditioning On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for your vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed for the air conditioner to work its best. While the system is in AUTO, it will use recirculation as necessary to cool the air. Defogging and Defrosting When the mode switch is set for floor/defrost or the defrost button is pressed, outside air will be selected automatically. This helps clear the windshield more quickly. Adjust the temperature and set the fan speed to the highest setting. When the windshield is clear, adjust the fan speed for maximum defrosting to a lower setting or return to AUTO mode. Recirculation is not available in the defrost mode, and the air conditioning compressor cannot be turned off in this mode. For maximum side window defogging, turn the outboard outlet thumbwheels to the side window defogger setting. See “Ventilation System” later in this section for more information on the outlet settings.

3-6

Rear Window Defogger When the rear window defogger is turned on, the rear window and both outside rearview mirrors are heated to remove fog from the surface of the glass.

The rear window defogger button is located on the climate control panel to the right of the defrost button.

Press the button to turn on the rear defogger. Press the button again to turn the system off. The system will automatically shut off after 10 minutes unless your vehicle is traveling more than 30 mph (48 km/h). If further defogging is desired once the system is off, press the button again. The system will automatically shut off after five minutes for any cycles after the initial activation.

Using the rear window defogger will not cancel automatic climate control operation.

Ventilation System

NOTICE:

Don’t use a razor blade or something else sharp on the inside of the rear window. If you do, you could cut or damage the warming grid or the integrated rear window antenna, and the repairs wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.

Do not attach a temporary vehicle license, tape or decals across the defogger grid on the rear window.

There are five instrument panel outlets, three in the center and one at each end. The outlets located at each end of the instrument panel have a feature that the center air outlets do not. These outlets will have air flowing to them in all modes, including defrost, when the climate control system is on.

3-7

 (Closed): Turn the thumbwheel to this symbol to

close the outlets and minimize the amount of air entering the vehicle.

Ventilation Tips D Keep the hood at the base of the windshield and

front air inlet free of ice, snow or any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater and defroster will work far better, reducing the chance of fogging the inside of your windows.

D When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, select the highest fan setting for a few moments before driving off. This helps clear the intake ducts of snow and moisture, and reduces the chance of fogging the inside of your windows.

D Keep the air path under the front seats clear of objects. This helps air to circulate throughout your vehicle.

You can adjust the direction of airflow by moving the knobs in the center of the outlets and by turning the thumbwheel at the bottom of the outlets. You may choose from the following positions:

(Side Window Defogger): Turn the thumbwheel to this symbol on the outboard outlets to use the side window defogger feature. The air coming through the outlets will be directed toward the side windows to prevent fogging.

(Open): Turn the thumbwheel to this symbol to open the outlets completely and allow the maximum amount of air to enter the vehicle. A small amount of air will still be directed to the side window defogger setting.

Using RDS Your audio system is equipped with Radio Data Systems (RDS). RDS features are available for use only on FM stations that broadcast RDS information. Using this system, the radio can: 1. receive announcements concerning local and

national emergencies,

2. seek to stations with traffic announcements, 3. display messages from radio stations and 4. search for a stronger station when a station is too

weak for listening.

If you are tuned to a station broadcasting RDS information, the station’s call letters and program service name will replace the station’s frequency on the display. The program type and program type name may be the same or different. If the radio is tuned to a station that is not broadcasting RDS information, the station’s frequency will remain on the display. With RDS the radio can search for a stronger station in the network when a station gets too weak for listening if alternate frequency is on.

RDS Messages ALERT: Alert warns of local and national emergencies. When an alert announcement comes on the current radio station or a related network station, ALERT will appear on the display. You will hear the announcement, even if the volume is muted or a cassette tape or compact disc is playing. If the cassette tape or compact disc player was being used, the tape or compact disc will stay in the player and resume play at the point where it stopped when the announcement has ended. You will not be able to turn off alert announcements. If the radio tunes to a related network station for the announcement, it will return to the original station when the announcement is finished. The radio uses TA volume for alert announcements. To increase or to decrease volume, turn the VOL knob. The volume can not be turned completely down or off.

TA (Traffic Announcement): This feature allows the radio to receive traffic announcements even with the volume muted, or when a CD or cassette tape is playing. When TA is on, the radio will search for another station with TA if the current station is not TA capable. During the search, TA will flash on the display. Once a TA station is found, TA will appear on the display and the traffic announcement will be played. If no station broadcasting traffic announcements is found, No Traffic will appear on the display. While a traffic announcement plays, the radio uses a special type of volume called TA volume. To increase or to decrease TA volume, turn the volume knob. TA volume can not be turned completely down or off. To turn off TA volume and stop TA announcements, you must turn TA off. When a traffic announcement comes on the current radio station or a related network station, you will hear it, even if the volume is muted or a cassette tape or compact disc is playing. If the radio tunes to a related network station for a traffic announcement, it will return to the original station when the announcement is finished. If the cassette tape or compact disc player was being used, the tape or compact disc will stay in the player and resume play at the point where it stopped.
