Rear Air Conditioning and Rear Heater
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle has the rear air conditioning and rear
heater system combination, controls are provided to
regulate temperature, location and fan speed.
Front Control
To adjust the airflow speed, turn the fan control knob
located on the left side to the desired setting.
To activate the second seat control system, turn the fan
knob on the front overhead control to REAR.
To regulate the airflow location, adjust the right control
on the control. Turn the knob clockwise for floor vent
airflow or counterclockwise for headliner vent airflow. Generally, the upper vents are used for air conditioning
and the floor vents for heating. The control knob can be
set to any blend setting.
To adjust the air temperature, turn the temperature knob
on the center of the control panel.
For warmer air, turn the knob clockwise toward red. For
cooler air, turn the knob counterclockwise toward blue.
Rear Control
The rear control works just like the front control. It will
allow second seat passengers to adjust the controls as
they desire. To use the rear control, first turn the front
control knob to REAR.

3-11 Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
air inside escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed
for the air conditioner to work its best.
The RECIRCULATION button allows the air inside
your vehicle to be recirculated. This setting helps to
maximize your air conditioner's performance and your
vehicle's fuel economy. This setting also cools air the
fastest and can be used to keep unwanted odors and/or
dust from entering the vehicle. When using the air
conditioner, turn off the RECIRCULATION button after
the vehicle reaches a comfortable interior temperature.
When the right knob on the control panel is between
HEATER and DEFROST, the recirculation feature will
not function to reduce window fogging.The A/C button, below the mode knob, allows the air
coming into your vehicle to be cooled. This setting is
useful for normal cooling on hot days. When you use
A/C with the RECIRCULATION button pushed in,
turn off recirculation as soon as the vehicle reaches a
comfortable interior temperature.
Maximum air conditioning performance is obtained by
pressing the A/C button, the RECIRCULATION button
and turning the temperature knob fully counterclockwise
to the blue area. This setting also cools air the fastest.
After the vehicle's interior reaches a comfortable
temperature, press the OUTSIDE AIR button to
place the air conditioning system in the normal mode.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has air conditioning, it is equipped with
a passenger compartment air filter, which filters outside
air entering the vehicle. For information on replacing
the filter see ªPassenger Compartment Air Filterº in
the Index.
