Comfort Controls
This section tells you how to operate your climate
control system.
Your vehicle may be equipped with a passenger
compartment air filter. For more information, see
ªPassenger Compartment Air Filterº in the Index.
Comfort Controls Personalization
(If Equipped)
This feature allows two different drivers to store and
recall their own climate control settings for temperature,
air delivery mode and fan speed. The personal choice
settings recalled are determined by the transmitter used
to enter the vehicle. After the button with the unlock
symbol on a remote keyless entry transmitter is pressed,
and the ignition is in RUN, the climate control will
adjust to the last settings of the identified driver. The
settings can also be changed by pressing one of the
memory buttons (1 or 2) located on the driver's door,
until you hear two beeps. When adjustments are made,
the new settings are automatically saved for that driver.
Automatic Electronic Climate Control
Your vehicle is equipped with either a Single Zone or
a Dual Zone Automatic Electronic Climate Control
System. You can use the automatic setting or override
the automatic setting by using the manual controls.
Your vehicle also has the flow
-through ventilation
system described later in this section.
AUTO
-PUSH Knob
By pressing the AUTO
-PUSH knob, you have
selected the electronic climate control system to be in
the automatic mode. The climate control system will
automatically control the air temperature, air inlets, air
distribution and the fan speed based on your selected
temperature setting as well as on the temperature inside
the vehicle, the outside temperature and the sun load.

3-3

When you press the AUTO-PUSH knob, the lights
under the AUTO
-PUSH and AUTO FAN knobs
will illuminate. Your current comfort setting will be
shown in the digital display.

Set the comfort level you want inside the vehicle by
using the colored buttons located below the climate
control display.

Turn the AUTO
-PUSH knob to select the
manual air delivery mode operation of the climate
control system.
Temperature Buttons
To adjust the comfort level you want maintained inside
the vehicle, use the red and blue buttons located below
the digital display. If you want a warmer comfort level,
push the red button. If you want a cooler comfort level,
push the blue button. Your selected comfort setting will
be shown on the digital display for five seconds, then
the outside temperature will be displayed.Mode Control
Turn the AUTO
-PUSH knob to deliver air through
the floor, panel or windshield outlets. The system will
stay in the selected mode until the AUTO
-PUSH knob
is pressed.
AUTO FAN Knob
This knob controls the fan speed in either an automatic
mode or a manual mode.

Pressing the AUTO FAN knob puts the fan control
in the automatic mode. The AUTO FAN light will
appear below the knob. The fan speed indicators
will not be illuminated when the system is in the
automatic fan control mode.

Turning the AUTO FAN knob selects a manual
fan speed. Turn this knob clockwise to raise the fan
speed. Turn this knob counterclockwise to lower the
fan speed. Turning the AUTO FAN knob overrides
the automatic fan control mode. The fan speed
indicators will be illuminated while in the manual
fan control mode.

Manual Operation
You may override the automatic airflow distribution by
turning the AUTO
-PUSH knob. After you turn this
knob, the comfort setting will be displayed for five
seconds, then the outside temperature will be displayed.
The fan control will remain in the automatic control
mode unless you turn the AUTO FAN knob to select
a manual fan speed.
PANEL: This setting directs airflow through the
upper air outlets located in the instrument panel.
BI-LEVEL: This setting directs the airflow
through both the panel air outlets and the lower floor
outlets. There is also a small amount of air directed to
the front defroster and the side window defrosters.
FLOOR: This setting directs most of the airflow
to the lower floor outlets with some airflow directed to
the side window defrosters. There is also a small amount
of airflow directed to the front defroster.
DEFOG: This setting directs the majority of
the airflow to the lower floor outlets and the front
defroster. A small amount of airflow is directed to the
side window defroster outlets. This mode can be useful to remove the moisture from the inside of the windshield
when the outside temperature is cold or the humidity is
high. Be sure the A/C indicator light comes on to allow
the air compressor to come on automatically to help
dehumidify the air.
DEF (Defrost): This setting directs the majority
of the airflow to the windshield with some airflow to
the side window defrosters and lower floor outlets.
To increase the fan speed, turn the AUTO FAN knob
clockwise. If defrost is selected from AUTO mode,
your automatic electronic climate control system will
automatically increase the defrost outlet temperature
and fan speed. For maximum front defrost performance
under extreme icing or frosting conditions, increase the
temperature setting to 90
F (33
C) and increase
the fan speed to high.
Even though A/C is not selected, in front defrost
mode the A/C compressor will run automatically
at temperatures over approximately 40
F (4
C) to
improve windshield clearing performance. This
dehumidifies the air to help dry the windshield.
Even though the compressor may be running,
the A/C indicator light will not come on in front
defrost unless you select A/C.

3-7
On very hot days, open the windows long enough to
let the hot air out. This reduces the time required to
cool the interior of the vehicle to a comfortable level.
If the system is in the automatic mode (AUTO
-PUSH
knob indicator light is on), during very hot days the
system will automatically go to the RECIRC mode and
the temperature door will initially be at the full cold
position for maximum cooling. You can choose the
extreme comfort setting of 60
F (16
C), but the
system will not cool any faster by choosing the extreme
comfort setting.
Heating
In cold weather, if the automatic mode is selected
(AUTO
-PUSH knob indicator light is on), the system
will automatically direct the airflow out of the lower
floor outlets and the temperature door will initially be
positioned at the full hot position. You can choose the
extreme comfort setting of 90
F (32
C), but the
system will not warm up any faster by selecting the
extreme comfort setting.In cold weather, the system will delay turning on the
fan to avoid blowing cold air. The length of the delay
depends on the engine coolant temperature and the
outside temperature. The fan speed will increase as the
temperature of the engine coolant increases. Turning the
AUTO FAN knob will override this delay by turning
off the automatic fan control mode and changing the
fan speed.
Defogging and Defrosting
On cool, humid days, use the defog setting to keep
the windows clear while also providing heat through the
lower outlets. Turn the AUTO
-PUSH knob clockwise to
DEF to quickly remove fog or ice from the windshield.
For maximum front defrost performance under extreme
icing or frosting conditions, increase the temperature
setting to 90
F (33
C) and increase the fan speed
to high.

3-10 Steering Wheel Controls for Climate Control
Some heating and cooling
controls can be adjusted
at the steering wheel.
Other touch controls
also operate some audio
controls. See ªAudio
Steering Wheel Controlsº
later in this section.
