Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The charging system light will come on briefly when you turn the ignition
on, but the engine is not running, as a check to show you the light is
working. Then
it should go out once the engine is running. If it stays on, or
comes on while you are driving, you may have a problem with the electrical
charging system. It could indicate that you have a loose accessory drive belt,
or another electrical problem. Have it checked right away. Driving while
this light
is on could drain your battery.
The charging system light is on the left bottom corner of your standard
cluster. It is part
of the digital cluster voltmeter.
If you must drive a short distance with the light on, be certain to turn off all
your accessories, such as the radio and heatedair conditioner.

Flow-Through Ventilation System
W W
Your vehicle’s flow-through ventilation system supplies outside air to the
inside
of your vehicle when it is moving. With the side windows closed, air
will flow into the front air inlet grilles at the base of the windshield, through
the vehicle and out the rear air exhaust valves. Outside air will also enter the
vehicle when the heater or the air conditioning fan is running.
Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood 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.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, turn the blower fan\
to HIGH
for a few moments before driving off. This helps clear the intake ducts
of snow and moisture, and reduces the change
of fogging the inside of
your windows.
0 Keep the air path under the front seats clear of objects. This helps air to
circulate throughout your vehicle.
