Carbon Monoxide Hazard
Your car's exhaust contains carbon monoxide gas. You should have no
problem with carbon monoxide
entering the car in normal driving if
you maintain your car properly. Have the exhaust system inspected
for leaks whenever:
The car is raised for an oil change.
You notice a change in the soundof the exhaust.
The car was in an accident that may have damaged the underside.
Carbon monoxide gas is toxic.Breathing it can cause
unconsciousness and can even
kill you.
Avoid any enclosed areas or activities that expose you to
carbon monoxide. High levels of carbon monoxide can
collect rapidly in enclosed areas,
such as a garage. Do not run the
engine with the garage door closed.
Even with the door open, run the
engine only long enough to move thecar out of the garage.
With the tailgate open, air flow can pull exhaust gas into your car's
interior and create a hazardous
condition. If you must drive with the
tailgate open, open all the windowsand set the heating and cooling
system as follows. If you must sit in your parked car,
even in an unconfined area, with the
engine running, adjust the heating
and cooling system as follows: 1. Push the button.
2. Select the mode.
3. Turn the fan on high speed.
4. Set the temperature control to a
comfortable setting.

lities. You can adjust the system
controls to mix these in various
combinations. The air flows into the
interior at three possible levels,
which you can select. CENTER VENT
SIDE VENT
The direction of air flow from the vents in the center and each side ofthe dashboard is adjustable. Move
the tab in the center of each vent up-and-down and side-to-side.
The side vents can be opened and closed with the dials next to them. The heating and cooling system
draws air through the exterior vents
at the bottom of the windshield.
Keep these vents clear of leaves and
other debris.

How to Use the System
This section covers the best way to use the system for ventilation,cooling, dehumidifying, defrosting
and heating. In most cases, the mode
and air source selections are only
recommendations. You may prefer different settings. Use mode to heat or cool the
interior more quickly, or to keep out
smoke and dust. Leaving the system
in the recirculation mode with the
A/C off can cause the windows to fog up. Switch to
mode as

soon as the interior reaches a
comfortable temperature or the
outside smoky, dusty condition

clears.
The engine must be running for the
heater and air conditioning to pro-
vide hot and cold air. The heater uses engine coolant to warm the air.If the engine is cold, it will be several
minutes before you feel warm air
circulating.
The air conditioning system does not depend on engine temperature. It
can produce cold air almost immedi-

ately.

Controlling Air Flow Direction
Air flows into the interior at three
levels: Toward the floor

through the dash vents and
toward the windshield and side
windows You select the air
flow level or combination of levels
with the five mode buttons.
Ventilation

Your car has a flow-through venti- lation system. Air enters the car
through vents in front of the wind-shield. It circulates through the
interior then exits through the rear side panels. This system provides
fresh air even when the car is standing still. To bring in outside air, press the button. Set the fan
at a comfortable speed.
