Engine coolant temperature gauge Indicates the temperature of the engine coolant. At normal operating temperature, the needle remains within the normal area. If it enters the red section, the engine is overheating. Stop the vehicle, turn off the engine and let the engine cool. Refer to Checking/ Adding engine coolant in the Maintenance and care chapter. Speedometer Indicates the current vehicle speed.

Odometer Registers the total mileage of the vehicle. Trip odometer The trip odometer can register the mileage of individual journeys. To reset, depress the button.

Tachometer (if equipped) Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).

Fuel gauge The fuel gauge displays approximately how much fuel is in the tank (when the key is in the ON position). The fuel gauge may vary slightly when the vehicle is in motion. The ignition should be in the OFF position while the vehicle is being refueled. When the gauge first indicates empty, there is a small amount of reserve fuel in the tank. When refueling the vehicle from empty indication, the amount of fuel that can be added will be less than the advertised capacity due to the reserve fuel.

Climate control system

Your vehicle has one of the following climate control systems: • Manual heating system • Manual heating and air

conditioning system

In some modes, the two systems function similarly. In modes where the systems do not function similarly, the different functions are noted.

Vents Airflow from the vents may be adjusted by moving the horizontal control or vertically adjusting the vent (except passenger side outer vent) according to your airflow preference.

It can be used to clear ice or fog from the windshield. Operating tips • In humid weather, select DEF before driving. This will help to reduce fogging on your windshield. After a few minutes, select any desired position. • To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle, don’t drive with the climate control system in the OFF position. • Don’t put objects under the front seat that will interfere with the airflow to the back seats. • Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area (at the bottom of the windshield under the hood). • Do not place objects over the defroster outlets. These objects can block airflow and reduce your ability to see through your windshield. Also, avoid placing small objects on top of your instrument panel. These objects can fall down into the defroster outlets and block airflow and possibly damage your climate control system.

Temperature control knob Controls the temperature of the airflow inside the vehicle.

Mode selector control Controls the direction of the airflow to the inside of the vehicle. The air conditioning compressor will operate in all modes except PANEL, PNL/FLR, and FLOOR. However, the air conditioning will only function if the outside temperature is about 10°C (50°F ) or higher. Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the air during operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you have stopped the vehicle.

Under normal conditions, your vehicle’s climate control system should be left in any position other than MAX A/C or OFF when the vehicle is parked. This allows the vehicle to “breathe” through the outside air inlet duct. In snowy or dirty conditions, leave the mode selector in the OFF position when the ignition is off. • MAX A/C – Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. MAX A/C is noisier than A/C but more economical and will cool the inside of the vehicle faster. Airflow will be from the instrument panel registers. This mode can also be used to prevent undesirable odors from entering the vehicle. • A/C – Uses outside air to cool the vehicle. It is quieter than MAX A/C but not as economical. Airflow will be from the instrument panel registers. • PANEL – Distributes outside air through the instrument panel registers. However, the air will not be cooled below the outside temperature because the air conditioning does not operate in this mode. • OFF – Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate. For short periods of time only, use this mode to prevent undesirable odors from entering the vehicle.

• PNL/FLR – Distributes outside air through the instrument panel registers and the floor ducts. However, the air will not be cooled below the outside temperature because the air conditioning does not operate in this mode. For added customer comfort, when the temperature control knob is anywhere in between the full hot and full cold positions, the air distributed through the floor ducts will be slightly warmer than the air sent to the instrument panel registers. • FLOOR – Allows for maximum heating by distributing outside air through the floor ducts. However, the air will not be cooled below the outside temperature because the air conditioning does not operate in this mode. • FLR/DEF – Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster ducts and the floor ducts. Heating and air conditioning capabilities are provided in this mode. For added customer comfort, the air distributed through the floor ducts will be slightly warmer than the air sent to the windshield defroster ducts. If the temperature is about 10°C (50°F) or higher, the air conditioner will automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.

Troubleshooting the CD Player

The laser beam used in the compact disc player is harmful to the eyes. Do not attempt to disassemble the case.

If sound skips: • You may be travelling on a rough road, playing scratched discs or the disc may be dirty. Skipping will not scratch the discs or damage the player. If player does not work: • The disc is inserted with the label surface downward. • The disc is dusty or defective. • The player’s internal temperature is above 75°C (167°F). Allow the player to cool down before operating. • A disc with format and dimensions not within industry standards is inserted. Cleaning compact discs Inspect all discs for contamination before playing. If necessary, clean discs only with an approved CD cleaner and wipe the center out to the edge. Do not use circular motion.

CD and CD player care • Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface. • Do not insert more than one disc at a time. • Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended periods of time. • After playing, store the disc in its case. Cleaning cassette player (if equipped) Clean the tape player head with a cassette cleaning cartridge after ten to twelve hours of play in order to maintain the best sound and operation. Cassette and cassette player care • Use only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or less. • Do not expose tapes to direct sunlight, high humidity, extreme heat or extreme cold. Allow tapes that may have been exposed to extreme temperatures to reach a moderate temperature before playing. • Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a finger or pencil into the hole and turning the hub.

• Remove loose labels before inserting tapes. • Do not leave tapes in the cassette player for a long time when not being played.

RADIO FREQUENCY INFORMATION The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Communications (CRTC) establish the frequencies AM and FM stations may use for their broadcasts. Allowable frequencies are: AM 530, 540–1600, 1610 kHz FM 87.9, 88.1–107.1, 107.9 MHz Not all frequencies are used in a given area.

Radio reception factors Three factors can affect radio reception: • Distance/strength. The further an FM signal travels, the weaker it is. The listenable range of the average FM station is approximately 40 km (24 miles). This range can be affected by “signal modulation”. Signal modulation is a process radio stations use to increase their strength/volume relative to other stations.

52

13CCfen 17.6.99 10:53 Uhr Seite 53

Controls and features

• Terrain. Hills, mountains and tall buildings between your vehicle’s antenna and the radio station signal can cause FM reception problems. Static can be caused on AM stations by power lines, electric fences, traffic lights and thunderstorms. Moving away from an interfering structure (out of its “shadow”) returns your reception to normal. • Station overload. Weak signals are sometimes captured by stronger signals when you pass a broadcast tower. A stronger signal may temporarily overtake a weaker signal and play while the weak station frequency is displayed. The audio system automatically switches to single channel reception if it will improve the reception of a station normally received in stereo.

AUDIO SYSTEM WARRANTIES AND SERVICE Refer to the “Warranty Guide” for audio system warranty information. If service is necessary, see your dealer or a qualified technician.
