The red and blue temperature buttons adjust the air
temperature coming through the system. Press the blue
button for a cooler setting or the red button for a
warmer setting.
Passenger’s Side Temperature Knob
With this feature, the right front passenger can control
the temperature of 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 knob on the passenger’s
side armrest. Rotate the knob clockwise to increase the
temperature and turn counterclockwise to decrease the
temperature. Press the knob again
to turn the system off.
Outside Temperature Display
The outside temperature is always displayed when your
vehicle is running. You can change it from Fahrenheit to
Celsius by pressing
the ENG/MET (Englishlmetric)
button on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
The outside temperature sensor is located near the front
grille. The sensor can be affected by road or engine heat
during idling, slow driving
or when the engine is first
started after a short trip. In order to ensure proper
automatic climate control operation, the outside air temperature
display may not update as quickly as
expected. This is
to allow the air surrounding the outside
temperature sensor
to be as close to the actual outside
conditions as possible. This is determined by how much
time has elapsed since the vehicle has been turned
off
and by vehicle speed.
Mode Controls
The AUTOBCON button automatically controls the
direction of air delivery for air conditioning and non-air
conditioning modes.
Automatic Operation
When the system is set for automatic operation, 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.

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.
OFF: Press this button to turn the system off. Fresh air
will continue to flow through the vehicle, and the
system will try to maintain the previously set
temperature. The outside temperature will show
in the
display when the system is off.
DEFOG: Press this button to divide the air between the
windshield and the heater outlets. This is useful when
fog appears on the windshield or side glass due to
sudden rain or snowy conditions.
AUTOECON: Press this button to switch between
AUTO and ECON. The ECON setting attempts to keep air
at a selected temperature, however, it does not remove
humidity from the
air. Use this setting in cold or cool weather to save fuel. The AUTO setting is used when it’s
warm outside and you need to cool the air in order to
maintain a selected temperature and blower speed.
# FAN SPEEDS: Press the button with the fan
symbol on it until AUTO is displayed
on the screen.
At this setting, the fan speed
is automatically controlled.
If it is cold outside, the blower may not run in the
maximum high fan speed right away. The system checks
the temperature
of the engine coolant to assure it is
warm enough to provide heat. When the engine coolant
is
warm, the controller allows the fan to gradually
increase to a higher speed. This prevents cold air from
blowing into the passenger compartment. If you want
the blower fan at a high speed, press the up arrow button
until you see HI on the display. If you want the fan
speed to be automatic, but you like the fan speed to be
higher than the AUTO setting, press the fan symbol
button until
HI AUTO is shown on the display. If you
want the blower
fan at a low speed, press the down
arrow button until
LO is shown on the display. If you
want the fan speed to run lower than the
AUTO
setting, press the button until AUTO LO is shown
on the display.
9 DEFROST Press this button to quickly remove
fog or frost from the windshield. This setting sends most
of the airflow to the windshield with only a small
amount to the floor outlets.

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.

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 digital cluster climate control panel, press the
AUTOECON 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 analog cluster climate control panel,
press the
AC button or the TEMP/AUTO knob 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 and
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.

With the radio on, insert a cassette tape. The tape will
begin playing as soon as it is inserted.
While the tape is playing, use the VOL, FADE, BAL,
BASS and TREB controls just as you do for the radio.
Other controls may have different functions when a tape

is playing. PLAY will
appear on the display temporarily when a tape is
playing. The display will then revert back to showing
the time.
If an error occurs while trying to play a cassette tape, it
could be that:
The cassette tape is tight and the cassette player
cannot turn the hubs
of the tape. Hold the cassette
tape with the open end down and try turning the right
hub counterclockwise with a pencil. Flip the tape
over and repeat. If the hubs do not turn easily, your
cassette tape may be damaged and should not be
used in the player. Try a new tape to be sure your
player is working properly.
The cassette tape is broken. (Check to see if your
tape is broken. Try a new tape.)
