Night Vision System (Option)
The Night Vision System can help you see better when
you drive at night. The system works by sensing heat
given off by objects in its field of view. Warmer objects,
such as pedestrians, animals and other moving vehicles,
will appear whiter. Colder objects, such as the sky, signs
and parked vehicles, will appear darker.
Use this system as an aid to help you in seeing objects
beyond the headlamps. Do this by occasionally glancing
at the image as you would a rearview mirror. Do not
stare at the image.
The Night Vision System can be operated if:
The instrument panel brightness knob is in any
position except OFF
it is dark enough outside,
the headlamps or fog lamps (if equipped) are on and
the ignition is turned to ON.
3-11 Climate Control Personalization
(If Equipped)
This feature allows two different drivers to store and
recall their own climate control settings. These settings
include the set temperatures for the driver and front
passenger, the air conditioning, the airflow mode and
the fan speed. (This feature does not recall recirculation
or defrost).
Each driver (1 or 2) has a corresponding number located
on the back of the remote keyless entry transmitter.
Settings recalled by the system can be determined by
which transmitter is used to unlock the vehicle. When
the button with the unlock symbol is pressed, the
settings will be automatically recalled for that driver.
The settings can also be recalled when the key is placed
in the ignition. If the settings are recalled this way, the
system will recall the settings of the last driver to use the
vehicle. If these are not the correct settings for you,
press the button with the unlock symbol on remote
keyless entry transmitter that was used when you saved
your settings.The settings can also be recalled by briefly pressing the
corresponding memory button (1 or 2) located on the
driver's door panel.
Further programming for recalling climate control
personalization settings can be done using the DIC.
You can select or not select the following:
Automatic recall of the climate control settings when
the vehicle is unlocked with the remote keyless entry
transmitter, or
Automatic recall of the climate control settings when
a key is placed in the ignition.
For more programming information, see ªMemory and
Personalization Featuresº in the Index.

The cassette tape is tight and the cassette player
cannot turn the hubs of the tape. Hold the cassette
tape with the open end down and try turning the right
hub counterclockwise with a pencil. Flip the tape
over and repeat. If the hubs do not turn easily, your
cassette tape may be damaged and should not be
used in the player. Try a new tape to be sure your
player is working properly.
The cassette tape is broken. (Check to see if your
tape is broken. Try a new tape.)
CLEAN TAPE: If this message appears on the display,
the cassette tape player needs to be cleaned. It will still
play tapes, but you should clean it as soon as possible to
prevent damage to the tapes and player. See ªCare of
Your Cassette Tape Playerº in the Index.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can't be
