2-37 Fog Lamps
Use your fog lamps for better vision in foggy or misty
conditions. Your low
-beam headlamps must be on for
your fog lamps to work.
The fog lamp switch is on the instrument panel under
the lamps switch. Press the switch to turn the fog lamps
on. Press the switch again to turn them off. A light will
glow in the switch when the fog lamps are on.
Fog lamps will go off whenever your high
-beam
headlamps come on. When the high beams go off, the
fog lamps will come on again.
Interior Lamps
Brightness Control
Turn the thumbwheel next to the headlamp switch up to
make your instrument panel lights brighter. Turn the
thumbwheel all the way up to turn on the interior lamps.
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 in the ªoutº
position. 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 turn off
automatically. If you use your keyless entry transmitter
to unlock the vehicle, the interior lights will come on for
a short time whether or not the DOME OVERRIDE
button is in the ªoutº position.

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 not
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 74F (23C)
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 flooroutlets. As the interior temperature approaches a desired
setting, the blower speed will decrease. To maintain
interior comfort, the airflow will adjust between the
instrument panel air outlets and floor outlets. On bright
sunny days in cool weather, the airflow may come out of
the air conditioning and floor outlets (bi
-level mode) to
maintain comfort and prevent stuffiness.
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.
