Setting the temperature to 60
F (15
C) will lock control
in full cold, recirculate interior air, direct air to outlets
on panel and increase blower speed to high. The system
will not return to automatic temperature control until the
temperature setting is raised.
Passenger's Temperature Control
The PASSENGER CONTROL buttons with the arrows
adjust the temperature on the passenger's side so it is
warmer or cooler than the temperature for the driver's
side. Push the DUAL button so that the indicator light is
lit. Press the right arrow button to raise the temperature.
Press the left arrow button to lower the temperature.
The display will not show the passenger's temperature,
only that of the driver. Indicators in the passenger
control section will show passenger's side temperature
relative to the driver's set temperature.

The amber light indicates the same temperature as
set for the driver.

The red lights indicate a warmer temperature than
that of the driver.

The blue lights indicate a cooler temperature than
that of the driver.Hot Weather Example: When you start the vehicle in
hot weather, 80F (27C) or after being parked during
the day in full sun, if your driver set temperature is 75F
(23C) and you are in full automatic mode, the system
will automatically move the temperature to full cold.
The fan will be at low speed momentarily and then go
to the high speed. The air intake will be recirculated for
maximum cooling performance. As the interior of the
vehicle cools down to your desired comfort point, the fan
speed will decrease and the temperature will move to a
warmer position to maintain your desired comfort. As the
interior cools down or the sun load decreases the system
could switch to air delivered to A/C vents and the floor.
Cold Weather Example: When you start the vehicle in
cold weather, (below freezing) or after being parked
overnight. If your Driver Set Temperature is 75F (23C)
and you are in Full Automatic mode, the system will
automatically move the temperature doors to full hot.
The fan will start out at a low speed and will increase to
a higher speed as the engine warms up. The air will be
delivered to the floor. As the interior of the vehicle
warms up to your desired comfort point, the fan speed
will decrease and the temperature will move to a cooler
position to maintain your desired comfort. As the cabin
warms up or the sun load increases the system could
switch to air delivered to the windshield and the floor
(DEFOG mode).

Manual Control
If you prefer to manually control the heating, cooling
and ventilation in your vehicle, you can select airflow
direction, fan speed, outside or recirculated air, air
compressor and temperature operation with the
following buttons:
AIR FLOW: This control has several settings to control
the direction of airflow when the system is not in AUTO.
To access the various modes available, continue to press
the AIR FLOW rocker button up or down until the
desired mode appears in the display:

WINDSHIELD/FLOOR: This setting directs half
of the air to the floor ducts and half to the defroster
and side window vents. The air conditioning
compressor will run automatically in this setting
unless the outside temperature is below 40F (4C).

MID/FLOOR: This setting directs half of the air
through the instrument panel outlets. Most of the
remaining air is directed through the floor ducts and
a little to the defroster and side window vents.

MID: This setting directs air through the instrument
panel outlets.
FLOOR: This setting sends most of the air through
the ducts near the floor. The rest comes out of the
defroster and side window vents. When in this
setting and the RECIRC setting, the windows can
fog up. See ªRECIRCº in the Index.
FRONT: This setting brings in outside air and
directs most of the air through the defrost vent. Some
of the air also goes to the floor ducts and the side
window defogger outlets. The indicator on the button
will light and WINDSHIELD will be lit in the display.
The air conditioning compressor will run automatically
in this setting unless the outside temperature is
below 40F (4C).
VENT: This pushbutton turns the air conditioning
compressor on and off. The indicator is lit when the
compressor is turned off. Recirculation is not permitted
when the compressor is off. The system will try to
control the temperature automatically, but without
the compressor.
VENT is not permitted in FRONT defrost mode. If the
VENT button is pushed while in FRONT defrost mode,
the indicator will light briefly and then turn off.

3-7
RECIRC: This setting recirculates much of the
air inside your vehicle. This setting is not permitted
in FRONT defrost mode and is only permitted in
WINDSHIELD/FLOOR mode if the compressor
is turned on. The indicator light will be lit when
recirculation is engaged, but will light briefly and
then turn off if selected when not permitted.
Operating the climate control system in the RECIRC
mode may cause fogging of the vehicles windows when
the weather is cold and damp. To clear the fog, switch
the system to either WINDSHIELD/FLOOR or
WINDSHIELD mode and increase the fan speed.
To avoid re
-fogging of the windows, operate the
system with RECIRC disengaged.
Defogging and Defrosting

If you have the DUAL COMFORTEMP CLIMATE
CONTROL, your system has two settings for
clearing the front and side windows. To defrost the
windows quickly, press the DEF button with the
temperature knob all the way in the red area.For maximum defroster performance, set both
driver and passenger temperature controls to the
warmest setting.
To warm passengers while keeping the windows
clear, use BLEND.

If you have the DUAL AUTOMATIC
COMFORTEMP CLIMATE CONTROL, your
system has two settings for clearing the front and
side windows. To defrost the windows quickly, press
the FRONT button; set the temperature to 90 F
(32C), select high fan speed and turn the DUAL
button off. To warm passengers while keeping the
windows clear, push the AIR FLOW button until
WINDSHIELD/FLOOR appears in the display.
Select fan speed for comfort and windshield
clearing performance.

3-31 Care of Your Compact Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original cases
or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight
and dust. If the surface of a disc is soiled, dampen a
clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution and
clean it, wiping from the center to the edge.
Be sure never to touch the signal surface when handling
discs. Pick up discs by grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.
Care of Your Compact Disc Player
The use of CD lens cleaner discs is not advised, due to
the risk of contaminating the lens of the CD optics with
lubricants internal to the CD mechanism.
Fixed Mast Antenna
The fixed mast antenna can withstand most car washes
without being damaged. If the mast should ever become
slightly bent, you can straighten it out by hand. If the
mast is badly bent, as it might be by vandals, you should
replace it.
Check every once in a while to be sure the mast is still
tightened to the fender.
Backglass Antenna (If Equipped)
Your AM-FM antenna is integrated with your rear
window defogger, located in the rear window. Be sure
that the inside surface of the rear window is not
scratched and that the lines on the glass are not
damaged. If the inside surface is damaged, it could
interfere with radio reception. Also, for proper radio
reception, the antenna connector at the top
-center of the
rear window needs to be properly attached to the post on
the glass.
NOTICE:
Do not try to clear frost or other material from
the inside of the rear window with a razor blade
or anything else that is sharp. This may damage
the rear defogger grid and affect your radio's
ability to pick up stations clearly. The repairs
wouldn't be covered by your warranty.
Because this antenna is built into your rear window,
there is a reduced risk of damage caused by car washes
and vandals.
