come on.
Exterior Lighting Battery Saver

knob must be cycled off and then
on
to turn the lamps back on.) To delay the lamps from
turning off, see "Twilight Sentinel" earlier in this section.

and the backlighting to the door switches and headlamp
knob control when a door
is opened or if you press the
Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) button. Note that the
illuminated entry system
is photocell dependent which
means that it must be dark outside
in order for the
courtesy lamps
to turn on. The courtesy lamps will turn
off approximately 20 seconds after the last door is closed.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Temperature Knob
The TEMP knob adjusts the air temperature coming
through the system. Turn the
TEMP knob clockwise to
increase the temperature and counterclockwise to
decrease
the temperature. The outside temperature is
always displayed when your vehicle is running.
Automatic Operation
Mode Button
Press this button to deliver air through the floor, middle
or windshield outlets. The system will stay in the
selected mode until
the MODE button is pushed again.
Press the
up or down arrow to cycle through the
available modes.
When the system is set for AUTO, sensors will control
the air delivery mode. Air will come
from the floor,
middle or windshield outlets. The fan speed will vary as
the system maintains the selected temperature setting.
Be careful not to put anything over the solar sensor
located in the middle
of the instrument panel near the
windshield. This sensor
is used by the automatic system
to regulate temperature.
To find your comfort zone, start with 75°F (24°C)
setting, allow about 20 minutes for the system to
regulate. Press the red
or blue temperature buttons to
adjust the temperature
if necessary. If you choose 60°F
(16"C), the system will remain at that maximum cooling
setting and will not regulate
fan speed. If you choose the
temperature of
90°F (32"C), the system will remain at
that maximum heating setting
and will not regulate fan
speed. Choosing either maximum setting
will not cause
the system to heat or cool any faster.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine AC: Press this button to turn the air conditioning on and
off.
The system will cool and dehumidify the air inside
the vehicle. In the AUTO mode, the display will show
that AC is active, but the air conditioning compressor
only operates when the system determines it is needed.
RECIRCULATION: Press this button to limit the
amount of fresh air entering your vehicle. This is helpful
when you
are trying to cool the air quickly or limit odors
entering your vehicle. In the AUTO mode, the system
will use recirculation as necessary to cool the
air.
Pressing the recirculation button will change the
operation to a manual mode and the air will recirculate
non-stop. Press this button again to turn off the
recirculation feature.
If you notice the windows fogging, press
the
recirculation button to exit the recirculation mode.
DUAL TEMPERATURE CONTROL: With this
feature, the right front passenger can control the
temperature of heated air for hisher own zone. The
passenger can select a four degree warmer or cooler
temperature from the driver’s setting.
To turn the system
on, press the PASS/TEMP button. Press the up arrow to
increase
the temperature and press the down arrow to
decrease the climate setting. Pressing the
OFF button
will turn off the dual-zone function.
Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed
for the
air conditioner to work its best.
With the
ECC system, press the AUTO/ECON button to
assist in cooling air and
in maintaining proper airflow.
Adjust the temperature to a comfortable setting by
pressing the blue button to cool your vehicle and
pressing the red button to warm your vehicle. Press the
fan button arrows up or down to adjust the fan speed.
If you have the dual-zone system, press the AC button
to turn the system on and then select
the proper MODE
to direct airflow. The system will cool and dehumidify
the air inside the vehicle. Also while in the AUTO
mode, the system will use recirculation as necessary to
cool the air. You may also need to adjust the interior
temperature. Turn the TEMP knob clockwise to increase
the temperature and counterclockwise
to decrease
temperature. Adjust the fan speed as needed.
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
temperature.

the ECC system, press the AUTOECON button to
direct airflow out
of the floor outlets and to help save
fuel. Adjust the temperature,
if necessary, by pressing
the blue button
to decrease temperature and pressing the
red button
to increase temperature. Also remember to
adjust the fan speed by pressing the up or down arrow.
If you have the dual-zone system, press the MODE
button to select heater. This will direct airflow out of the
floor outlets. Adjust the interior temperature to your
comfort level by turning the
TEMP knob clockwise to
increase temperature and counterclockwise to decrease
temperature. If the fan speed needs adjusting, press the
up or down arrow.
With each system, outside air will be brought in and sent

the vehicle when it is moving.
Outside air will also enter the vehicle when the heater
or
the air conditioning fan is running.
The front outlets
are located in the center and at each
side
of the instrument panel. You can adjust the
direction
of aifflow by moving the center control levers
or
you can stop the airflow by moving the lever located
on each side
of the outlets downward.
