Comfort Controls and Radio System
Personalization
These features allow both drivers to personalize their own
climate control settings as well as their radio settings. For
more information, see ªClimate Control Personalizationº
and ªRadio Personalizationº in the Index.
The outside temperature is always available for display
if it has been selected for a DIC display when your

more information on the DIC, see ªDIC Messagesº
in the Index.

The electronic sensor can be affected by road or engine
heat during idling, slow driving or when the engine is
first stared after a short trip. 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.
Continuous Variable Road Sensing
Suspension (CVRSS)
The CVRSS automatically adjusts the ride of your
vehicle. Automatic ride control is achieved through a
computer used to control and monitor the suspension
system. The controller receives input from various
sensors to determine the proper system response.
If the controller detects a problem within the system,
the DIC will display a SERVICE SUSPENSION SYS
message. If this message appears, have your vehicle
serviced at your dealership.
Oil Life Indicator
This feature lets you know when to change the engine
oil. It's based on the engine oil temperatures and your
driving patterns. To see the display, press the INFO
button several times until ENGINE OIL LIFE appears.
If you see 99% ENGINE OIL LIFE, 99 percent of your
current oil life remains.
The DIC may display a CHANGE ENGINE OIL message.
Always keep a written record of the mileage and date
when you changed your oil. For more information, see
the Maintenance Schedule booklet. If you see CHANGE
ENGINE OIL, it means the oil life is gone and you should
change the oil right away. The system doesn't check how
much oil you have, so you'll still have to check for that.
To see how, see ªEngine Oilº in the Index.
When the oil is changed, you'll need to reset the system.
See ªOil Life Indicator, How to Resetº in the Index.

map media covering nine regional areas throughout
the contiguous United States. In addition, the system
includes intersection and freeway entrances, route
planning, a programmable address book, points of
interest, a list of restaurants, emergency phone
numbers, and a list of hotels and motels for all of
the major cities on each regional CD. The navigation

A/C: Press this button to turn the air conditioning
compressor on and off. When you press the button,
an A/C OFF message appears on the climate control
panel's display. Press the button again and the air
conditioner will return to automatic control. The
system will cool and dehumidify the air inside the
vehicle. In the automatic mode, the air conditioning
compressor only operates when the system determines it
is needed. The A/C OFF function is not available in the
defrost mode.
MODE: Press this button (the right or left arrow)
to deliver air through the floor, instrument panel or
windshield outlets. The climate control system will
stay in the selected mode until the MODE button, the
DEFROST button or the AUTO button is pressed again.
Press the left or right arrow to cycle through the
following available modes.
UPPER: This setting directs airflow through
the middle instrument panel outlets. Your vehicle is
equipped with a driver's side lap cooler which will also
come on when the upper vents are being used.
BI-LEVEL: This setting directs air into your
vehicle in two ways. Cool air is directed to the upper
portion of your body through the four instrument panel
outlets while warmed air is directed to the floor.
DEFOG: This setting directs air to the floor
outlets and toward the windshield.
HEATER: This setting directs warmed air
through the floor outlets. Some warm air is diverted
to the windshield to minimize fogging.
FAN: The button with the fan symbol adjusts the
fan speed. Press the up arrow to increase fan speed and
the down arrow to decrease fan speed. Press the AUTO
button to set the fan speed for automatic operation.
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's compartment.
Selecting a manual fan speed will override this feature.
