CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You can't see or smell
CO. It can cause unconsciousness and even death.
If you must drive with the trunk lid open or if
electrical wiring or other cable connections must
pass through the seal between the body and the
trunk lid:

Make sure all other windows are shut.

Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on VENT. That will force outside air into
your vehicle. See ªComfort Controlsº in
the Index.

If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See ªEngine Exhaustº in the Index.
Remote Trunk Release
The remote trunk release button is located on the
driver's door. Push the remote release button to release
the trunk lid. Make sure the remote trunk lockout release
feature is not activated.
The trunk will unlock when the remote trunk release
button is pressed, the remote trunk release lockout is to
OFF and the ignition is to ON, while the shifter is to
PARK (P) or the parking brake is engaged or the
ignition is to OFF.

The outside rearview mirror should be adjusted so you
can just see the side of your vehicle when you are sitting
in a comfortable driving position.
Adjust the driver's side outside mirror with the control
lever on the driver's door.
To adjust your passenger's side mirror, sit in the driver's
seat and have a passenger adjust the mirror for you.

This selector knob
controls both outside
rearview mirrors.Select the mirror you want to adjust by turning the knob
to the left or right. Adjust each mirror so that you can
see the side of your vehicle when you are sitting in a
comfortable driving position.
Turn the knob to the center to turn the remote control
mirror off.
Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger's side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror's surface is curved so you can see more from the
driver's seat.
CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.

Playing a Cassette Tape
With this option, the remote single cassette player is
mounted to the console.
Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that
are up to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes
longer than that are so thin they may not work well
in this player.

is playing, use the control knobs for VOL, BAL, FADE,
BASS and TREB just as you do for the radio. A lighted
cassette symbol shows when a cassette tape is in the
player. A lighted arrow will also appear and show the
direction of play when a tape is active.PREV (1): Press PREV or the SEEK down arrow
to search for the previous selection. A minimum
three

stop at the beginning of the selection. The tape
direction arrow will blink during the SEEK operation
and the sound will mute in this mode.
NEXT (2): Press NEXT or the SEEK up arrow to
search for the next selection. The tape direction arrow
will blink during the SEEK operation and the sound
will mute in this mode.
(4): Press this button to reduce background tape noise
(noise reduction is only available in the cassette mode).
The double
-D symbol will appear on the display.
REV (5): Press this button to rapidly reverse the tape.
The tape will rapidly reverse to the beginning of the
cassette reel or until you press REV again. Use the
SEEK button or the TUNE knob to play the radio
during REV. The radio plays the last selected station.

The tape will rapidly advance to the end of the cassette
reel or until you press FWD again. Use the SEEK
button or the TUNE knob to play the radio during FWD.
