Vehicle Damage Warnings
Also in this book you will find these notices:
NOTICE:
These mean there is something that
could damage your vehicle.
In the notice area, we tell you about something that can
damage your vehicle. Many times, this damage would
not be covered
by your warranty, and it could be costly.
But the notice
will tell you what to do to help avoid the
damage.
When you read other manuals, you might see
CAUTION and
NOTICE warnings in different colors or
in different words.
You’ll also see warning labels on your vehicle. They use
yellow
for cautions, blue for notices and the words
CAUTION or NOTICE.

indicating there may be a problem. See your Aurora
retailer for service.
The digital screen displays the outside temperature or
the inside temperature setting, the fan speed, and the
heating mode
you have selected. Hold down the OFF
button on the Driver Information Center for five seconds
to change between English and metric displays. Keep
in
mind that this will also change the display on the Driver
Information Center between English and metric.
The red and blue buttons below the digital display set
the interior temperature
you want. The temperature you
set will be displayed on
the digital screen for five
seconds after
you press either the red or blue button (to
raise or lower temperature, respectively). Then the
outside temperature will be displayed.
Once you set
the temperature, the system will try to
maintain that
set temperature, whether you are in the
auto or manual modes. But if you set the temperature for
60°F (16°C) or 90°F (32"C), the fan will stay on high
speed unless you select
a different speed. The system
will maintain
full cold or full hot operation at these
extreme temperature settings. Your
system has two sun sensors
on top of the
instrument panel that detect direct sunlight and the
increased warming caused by it.
To keep you
comfortable, the sensors may reduce the interior
temperature
by as much as 5 "F (3 "C) below the setting
on the digital screen, if necessary. Be careful not
to put
anything over these sun sensors.
If you do, the system
will
think it's night and warm up the vehicle.

Air Conditioning
The air conditioner cools, dehumidifies, and filters the
air for the inside of the vehicle.
The air conditioner compressor
is enabled in all modes.
However, when the outside temperature is below
42" F
(6"C), the compressor will not operate. When the air
conditioner is on, you may sometimes notice slight
changes
in your vehicle's engine speed and power. This
is normal, because the system is designed to cycle the
compressor
on and off to keep the desired cooling and
help fuel economy.
The air conditioning is always enabled
in defog or
defrost. In any other mode,
you can select or shut off the
air conditioning as desired by pressing
A/C ON. The
indicator light will glow while the air conditioning is
enabled. For maximum
continued cooling, press the blue
temperature button repeatedly until the display reads
60" F (16°C) and press the A/C ON button. Using the
upper vents will cause
you to feel cooler more quickly.
The direction of
the cool air can be controlled by
adjusting, or turning off, the outlets in the dash. Aiming
them over your shoulder will benefit both front and rear
passengers. Back seat passengers can also redirect air
flow using the vents at the rear
of the center console.
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let the
hot inside air out. This reduces the time the air
conditioner's compressor will have to run, which should
help fuel economy.
