Under normal conditions, your vehicle's climate
control system should be left in any position other
than MAX A/C or OFF when the vehicle is parked.
This allows the vehicle to ªbreatheº through the
outside air inlet duct. In snowy or dirty conditions,
leave the mode selector in the OFF position when
the ignition is turned off.
²MAX A/C-Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle.
MAX A/C is noisier than NORM A/C but more
economical and will cool the inside of the vehicle
faster. Airflow will be from the instrument panel
registers. This mode can also be used to reduce
undesirable odors from entering the vehicle.
²NORM A/C-Uses outside air to cool the vehicle. It
is quieter than MAX A/C but not as economical.
Airflow will be from the instrument panel
registers.
²VENT-Distributes outside air through the
instrument panel registers. However, the air will
not be cooled below the outside temperature
because the air conditioning does not operate in
this mode.
²OFF-Outside air is shut out and the fan will not
operate. For short periods of time only, use this
mode to prevent undesirable odors from entering
the vehicle.
²FLR-Allows for maximum heating by distributing
outside air through the floor ducts. However, the
air will not be cooled below the outside
temperature because the air conditioning does not
operate in this mode.
²MIX-Distributes outside air through the
windshield defroster ducts and the floor ducts.
Heating and air conditioning capabilities are
provided in this mode. For added customer
comfort, when the temperature control knob is
anywhere in between the full hot and full cold
positions, the air distributed through the floor
ducts will be slightly warmer than the air sent to

To turn speed control off
²Press OFF or
²Turn off the vehicle
ignition.
Once speed control is switched off, the previously
programmed set speed will be erased.
To set a speed
²Press SET/SET ACC/
SET ACCEL. For
speed control to
operate, the speed
control must be ON
and the vehicle
speed must be
greater than 48 km/h
(30 mph).
If you drive up or down a steep hill, your vehicle
speed may vary momentarily slower or faster than
the set speed. This is normal.
Speed control cannot reduce the vehicle speed if it
increases above the set speed on a downhill. If your
vehicle speed is faster than the set speed while
driving on a downhill, you may want to shift to the
next lower gear or apply the brakes to reduce your
vehicle speed.
If your vehicle slows down more than 16 km/h
(10 mph) below your set speed on an uphill, your
speed control will disengage. This is normal.
Pressing RES/RSM/RESUME will re-engage it.
Do not use the speed control in heavy traffic
or on roads that are winding, slippery, or
unpaved.
