RADIO OPERATION AND CELLULAR PHONES Under certain conditions, the cellular phone being on in your vehicle can cause erratic or noisy performance from your radio. This condition may be lessened or eliminated by relocating the cellular phone antenna. This condition is not harmful to the radio. If your radio performance does not satisfactorily “clear” by the repositioning of the antenna, it is recommended that the radio volume be turned down or off during cellular phone operation.
CLIMATE CONTROLS The Climate Control System allows you to regulate the temperature, amount, and direction of air circulating throughout the vehicle. The controls are located on the instrument panel, below the radio.
298 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL Manual Heating and Air Conditioning System — If Equipped The controls for the manual system in this vehicle contain a series of outer rotary dials and inner push knobs. These comfort controls can be set to obtain desired interior conditions.
Front Blower Control
There are four blower speeds. Use this control to regulate the amount of air forced through the system in any mode you select. The blower speed increases as you move the control clockwise from the off position.
NOTE: For vehicles equipped with Remote Start, the climate controls will not function during Remote Start operation if the blower control is left in the “O” (Off) position. Blower control should be left in the ⬙ON⬙ position to allow the climate control to either warm or cool the vehicle.
Manual Temperature Control
Temperature Control
Use this control to regulate the tem- perature of the air inside the passenger compartment. Rotating the knob coun- terclockwise, from top center into the blue area indicates cooler tempera- tures. Rotating the knob clockwise, into the red area, indicates warmer temperatures.
If your air conditioning performance seems NOTE: lower than expected, check the front of the A/C con- denser (located in front of the radiator), for an accumu- lation of dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle water spray from behind the radiator and through the condenser. Fabric front fascia protectors may reduce airflow to the condenser, reducing air conditioning performance.
UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 299
Mode Control (Air Direction)
Mode control allows you to choose from several selections of air distribu- tion. You can select either a primary mode, as identified by the symbols, or a blend of two of these modes. The closer the control is to a particular mode, the more air distribution you
receive from that mode. Panel Mode
Air is directed through the outlets in the instrument panel. These outlets can be adjusted for direction,
and turned on or off to control airflow. NOTE: For maximum airflow to the rear, the center instrument panel outlets can be directed toward the rear seat passengers.
300 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL Bi-Level Mode
Air is directed through the panel and floor outlets.
NOTE: There is a difference in temperature (in any conditions other than full cold or full hot), between the upper and lower outlets for added comfort. The warmer air goes to the floor outlets. This feature gives improved comfort during sunny but cool conditions. Floor Mode
Air is directed through the floor outlets with a small amount through the defrost and side window
demist outlets. Mix Mode
Air is directed through the floor, defrost and side window demist outlets. This setting works best in cold or snowy conditions that require extra heat at the windshield. This setting is good for maintaining comfort, while reducing moisture on the windshield.
Defrost Mode
Air is directed through the windshield and side window demist outlets. Use DEFROST mode with maximum blower and temperature settings for best windshield and side window defrosting. NOTE: The air conditioning compressor operates in MIX and DEFROST, or a blend of these modes even if the A/C button is not pressed. This dehumidifies the air to help dry the windshield. To improve fuel economy, use these modes only when necessary. Recirculation Control
Press this button to choose between outside air intake or recirculation of the air inside the vehicle. A lamp will illuminate when you are in RECIRCULATION mode. Only use the RECIR- CULATION mode to temporarily block out any outside odors, smoke, or dust, and to cool the interior rapidly upon initial start-up in very hot or humid weather.
UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 301
Economy Mode If ECONOMY mode is desired, press the A/C button to turn off the indicator light and the A/C compressor. Rotate the temperature control knob to the desired temperature. Air Conditioning Operation
Push on this button to engage the Air Conditioning (A/C). A light will illu- minate when the A/C System is en- gaged.
NOTE: • If the RECIRCULATION button is pressed when the system is in MIX, DEFROST, or FLOOR mode the RECIRCULATION LED indicator will flash 3 times to indicate RECIRCULATION mode is not allowed. • Continuous use of the RECIRCULATION mode may make the inside air stuffy and window fogging may occur. Extended use of this mode is not recommended. • In cold or damp weather, the use of the RECIRCULA- TION mode will cause windows to fog on the inside because of moisture buildup inside the vehicle. For maximum defogging, select the outside air position. • In order to prevent fogging, when the RECIRCULA- TION button is pressed and the mode control is set to PANEL, the A/C will engage automatically. • The A/C can be deselected manually without disturb-
ing the mode control selection.
302 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL NOTE: The air conditioning compressor will not engage until the engine has been running for about 10 seconds. Max A/C For maximum cooling use the A/C and RECIRCULA- TION mode buttons at the same time. Three-Zone Temperature Control — If Equipped With the Three-Zone Temperature Control System, each front seat occupant can independently control the Heat- ing, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning operations coming from the outlets on their side of the vehicle.
