Remote Panic Alarm
When the button with the horn symbol on the key
transmitter is pressed, the horn will sound and
the
headlamps and taillamps will flash for up to 30 seconds.
This can be turned off by pressing the horn button again,
waiting for

Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If
a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be
purchased through your dealer. Remember
to bring any
remaining transmitters with you
when you go to your
dealer. When the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter
to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded
the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have only four transmitters
matched to it.

Interior Lamps
Brightness Control
Rotate the thumbwheel next to the headlamp switch up
to make your instrument panel lights brighter. Turn the
switch all the way up to turn
on the interior lamps.
Front Reading Lamp?
Press the button near each lamp on the overhead console
to turn the reading lamps
on and off. The lamps can be
swiveled to point in the desired direction.
If you have the
mini console, press the lens on each
lamp
to turn it on or off.
Exit Lighting
With exit lighting, the interior lamps will come on when
you remove
the key from the ignition. These lights will
stay
on for a short period of time and then will go out.
Illuminated Entry
Your vehicle is equipped with an illuminated entry feature.
When the doors are opened, the dome lamps will come
on if the DOME OVERRIDE button is out. When all the
doors are closed, or the front door handles are lifted and
released, the lamps will stay
on for a short period of
time and will then go
out. If the dome lamp button is
pressed in, the lamps will
go out immediately.
Dome Lamps
The dome lamps will come on when you open the doors.
You can
also turn the dome lamps on by rotating the
thumbwheel, located next to the parking/headlamps
knob, all the way
LIP. In this position, the dome lamps
will remain on whether the doors are opened or closed.

Mode Knob - Automatic Operation
The right knob on the control panel allows you to
choose the direction of air delivery. When the system is
set for automatic operation, sensors will control the air
delivery mode.
Air will come primarily from the floor or
instrument panel outlets, with some air directed to the
windshield to prevent fogging.
When the system is in AUTO mode, the air conditioning
light will turn on, and the recirculation and outside air
lights turn
off. With the system in full auto control
(both the fan and mode knobs
in AUTO), you still have
the ability to override any function. However,
continually overriding the outside air or the
A/C
compressor will limit the ability of the system to cool
the vehicle quickly.
If you push a button for a function which is nor
available, the light next to that button will flash three
times to alert you that it’s not available.
To find your comfort zone, start with the
74°F (23 O C)
setting and allow about 20 minutes for the system to
adjust the temperature if necessary.
With the automatic setting, the
air conditioning compressor
automatically cycles when needed to cool the
air. In cold
weather, when the system senses the need for heat, the
airflow
will be directed out the floor outlets. As the interior temperature approaches the desired setting, the
blower speed will decrease. To maintain interior comfort,
the &ow will adjust between the instrument panel
air
outlets and floor outlets. On bright sunny days in cool
weather, the alrflow may come out
of the air conditioning
and floor outlets (bi-level mode) to maintain comfort and
prevent stuffiiess.
To avoid blowing cold
air in cold weather, the system will
delay turning on the fan until warm
air is available. The
length of delay depends on the outside
air temperature,
engine coolant temperature or the time since the engine was last started.
As the coolant warms up, the blower fan
speed will gradually increase and
air will flow from the
heater outlets, with some airflow to
the windshield to
prevent fogging under most normal conditions.
If your vehicle is sitting out on a warm day and you
have the fan set on AUTO, the air will first flow out of
the floor air outlets
for a few seconds. That is normal.
This is to expel hot air from the air outlets.
As the air is
cooled, the airflow will move through the
air
conditioning outlets.
Be careful not to put anything over the solar sensor
located around the center of the instrument panel.
This sensor is used by the automatic system to
regulate temperature.
