1-1 Push this button to
remove fog or frost
from the windshield.
This setting sends most of the air flow to the windshield with only a small
amount to the floor outlets. In some cold start conditions, the
“AUTO”
blower fan speed may be limited until the cooling system warms up. This
is normal to prevent windshield fogging.
The .fan speed will work automatically to maintain your requested interior
temperature. If
you need more air to your windshield, you should select a
higher fan speed.
It will help a lot if you first clear any ice and snow from the hood and the
air inlet (it’s between the hood and the windshield).
REAR DEFOGGER
I
Push this button to turn
on the rear defogger.
With it, your rear window and both outside rearview mirrors are heated.
The system will automatically shut off after
10 minutes. If further
defrosting is desired, simply push the button again.
NOTICE:
Scraping the inside of your rear window could cut and damage
the heating grids. Your warranty would not,cover this damage.
And don’t put decals there; you might have to scrape them.off.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Do not get too close to the vehicle you want to pass while you’re
awaiting an opportunity. For one thing, following too closely reduces
your area
of vision, especially if you’re following a larger vehicle. Also,
you won’t have adequate space if the vehicle ahead suddenly slows or
stops. Keep back
a reasonable distance.
When it looks like a chance to pass is coming up, start to accelerate
but stay in the right lane and don’t get too close. Time your move
so
you will be increasing speed as the time comes to move into the other
lane.
If the way is clear to pass, you will have a “running start” that
more than makes up for the distance you would lose by dropping back.
And if something happens to cause you to cancel your pass, you need
only slow
down and drop back again and wait for another opportunity.
take care that someone isn’t trying to pass you as you pull out to pass
the slow vehicle. Remember to glance over your shoulder and check
the blind spot.
If other cars are lined up to pass a slow vehicle, wait your turn. But
0 Check your mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and start your left lane
change signal before moving out of the right lane to pass. When you
are far enough ahead of the passed vehicle to see its front in your
inside mirror, activate your right lane change signal and move back
into the right lane. (Remember that your right outside mirror
is
convex. The vehicle you just passed may seem to be farther away from
you than it really is.)
Try not to pass more than one vehicle at a time on two-lane roads.
Reconsider before passing the next vehicle.
Don’t overtake a slowly moving vehicle too rapidly. Even though the
brake lights are not flashing, it may be slowing down or starting to
turn.
If you’re being passed, make it easy for the following driver to get
ahead of you. Perhaps you can ease a little to the right.
