CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (EATC) system
The EATC system will maintain a
selected temperature and
automatically control airflow. You
can override automatic operation
with any of the override controls,
the fan speed control or steering
wheel controls.
Turning the EATC on
Press AUTO, any of the override
controls or the fan speed control.
The EATC will only operate when
the vehicle is running.
Turning the EATC off
Press OFF. The Outside
Temperature (EXT) function will
continue to operate until the
ignition is turned off.
Automatic operation
Press AUTO and select the desired temperature. The selected
temperature and the word AUTO will appear in the display window. The
EATC system will either heat or cool to achieve the selected
temperature. The system will automatically determine fan speed, airflow
location and if outside air or recirculated air is required. Fan speed
remains automatic unless the fan speed control is pressed or the steering
wheel fan speed control is pressed.
When in AUTO and weather conditions require heat, air will be sent to
the floor. However, if the engine is not warm enough to provide heat, the
fan will be at a low speed and the air will be directed to the windshield.

Displaying outside temperature
Press EXT to display the outside air
temperature. It will be displayed
until EXT is pressed again.
If the selected temperature is
changed while the outside
temperature is displayed, the new
temperature will be displayed for
four seconds after it is changed,
then the outside temperature will
return to the window.
If a manual override function is selected while the outside temperature is
displayed, the new function will be displayed for four seconds after it is
changed, then the outside temperature will return to the window along
with the override selection.
The outside temperature reading is most accurate when the vehicle is
moving. Higher readings may be obtained when the vehicle is not
moving. The readings that you get may not agree with temperatures
given on the radio due to differences in vehicle and station locations.
Operating tips
²In humid weather conditions, place the climate control system
in
before driving. This will reduce fogging on your windshield.
Once the windshield has been cleared, operate the climate control
system as desired.
²To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle in cold weather
conditions, don't drive with the climate control system in the OFF or
MAX A/C position.
²To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle in warm weather
conditions, don't drive with the climate control system in the OFF
position.
²Under normal weather conditions, your vehicle's climate control
system should be left in any position other than MAX A/C or OFF
when the vehicle is parked. This allows the vehicle to ªbreatheº
through the outside air inlet duct.
²Under snowy or dirty weather conditions, your vehicle's climate
control system should be left in the OFF position when the vehicle is
parked. This allows the climate control system to be free from
contamination of outside pollutants.

²If your vehicle has been parked with the windows closed during warm
weather conditions, the air conditioner will perform more efficiently in
cooling the vehicle if driven for two or three minutes with the
windows open. This will force most of the hot, stale air out of the
vehicle. Once the vehicle has been ªaired outº, operate the climate
control system as desired.
²Do not place objects under the front seat that may interfere with the
airflow to the rear seats.
²Remove any snow, ice or leaves
from the air intake area at the
base of the windshield.
²Do not place objects over the defroster outlets. These objects can
block airflow and reduce your ability to see through your windshield.
Avoid placing small objects on top of the instrument panel. These
objects may fall down into the defroster outlets and block airflow, in
addition to damaging the climate control system.
To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather conditions:
1. Select
2. Set the temperature control to full heat
3. Set the fan speed to HI
4. Direct the outer panel vents towards to side windows
To increase airflow to the outer panel vents, close the central panel
vents.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel, as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.
