Headlamp High-Low Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from high to low beam, or low
to high, simply pull the turn signal lever all the way
toward you. Then release it.
When the high beams are on, a blue light on the
instrument cluster will
also be on.
Fog Lamps
Slide the lower lever on the lights control panel up to
turn
on the fog lamps, down to turn them off. An
indicator light next to the control will glow when the fog
lamps are on.
Your headlamps must be on for your fog lamps to go on.
Although your fog lamps will go off when your high
beams are on, high beams are not recommended for
driving in fog.

Air Conditioner
When the temperature outside is above freezing, the air
conditioner compressor will automatically condition the air when you press RECIRC (the A/C indicator light will glow),
DEFOG or DEF (the A/C indicator light will not glow).
Press A/C (the
A/C indicator light will glow) to condition
the air when you press UPPER, BI-LEV or
LOWER. To
turn off the air conditioner compressor
in these settings,
press A/C again (the indicator light will go off).
Each time
you turn on the ignition, the air conditioner
will default
to the setting you had selected before last
turning off the ignition.
When the air conditioner compressor is
on, you may
sometimes notice slight changes in your vehicle’s engine
performance and power. This
is normal. The system is
designed to help fuel economy while
it maintains the
desired cooling level.
The air conditioner removes moisture from the air,
so
you may sometimes notice water dripping from under
your vehicle when it is idling or after it has been turned
off. This is normal.
On very hot days,
your vehicle will cool down more
quickly and economically if you open the windows long
enough
to let hot, inside air escape. For all settings, adjust
the temperature control lever and fan speed as desired.
Directional Controls
RECIRC: Press to get maximum cooling or quick
cool-down
on very hot days. This setting recirculates
much of the air inside your vehicle. It should not be
used for long periods
of time because the air may
become too cold and dry.
Slide the temperature control lever down to the coolest
setting and adjust the fan speed as desired.
UPPER: For normal cooling on hot days, press A/C
along with UPPER. This setting cools outside air and
directs it through the instrument panel outlets. Adjust
the temperature of the air with the temperature control
lever.
BI-LEV: This setting is designed for use on sunny days
when the air is only moderately warm or cool. On days
like these, the sun may adequately warm your upper
body, but your lower body may
not be warm enough.
The BI-LEV setting directs outside air into your vehicle
in two ways. Cooler air is directed toward your upper
body through the front instrument panel outlets, while
warmed air is directed through the heater ducts at your
feet. At times this temperature difference may be more
apparent than others. For best results, slide the
temperature control lever to the middle position, and
then adjust for comfort.

Rear Window Defogger
Press R.DEF (Rear Defog) to warm the defogger grid
on the rear window. The indicator light will glow while
the rear window defogger is operating. The rear
window defogger will turn off automatically after about
10 minutes of use. If you turn it on again, the defogger
will operate for about five minutes only.
You can also
turn the defogger off by turning off the ignition or
pressing the switch again.
Do not attach a temporary vehicle license across the
defogger grid on the rear window.
Flow-Through Ventilation System
Your vehicle’s flow-through ventilation system supplies
outside air into the vehicle when
it is moving. Outside
air will also enter the vehicle when the heater or the air
conditioning fan is running.
Ventilation Tips

1 NOTICE:
Don’t use a razor blade or something else sharp
on the inside
of the rear window. If you do, you
could cut or damage the warming grid, and the
repairs wouldn’t
be covered by your warranty. 0
Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow, or
any other obstruction (such as leaves). This will
allow
the heater and defroster to work much better,
reducing the chance of fogging the i.nside 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 chance
of fogging the
inside of your windows.
Keep the area around the base
of the center
instrument panel console and the air path under the
front seats clear of objects. This helps air to circulate
throughout your vehicle.
