Press the button to turn the fog lamps on. Press the
button again to turn them off. An indicator light will
glow in the button when the fog lamps are on.
Remember, fog lamps alone will not give off as much
light as your headlamps. Never use the fog lamps in the
dark without turning on the headlamps.
The fog lamps will go off whenever the high
-beam
headlamps come on. When the high beams go off, the
fog lamps will come on again.
The fog lamps will be cancelled after the ignition is
turned off. If you still want to use the fog lamps after
you restart the vehicle, you will need to press the fog
lamp button again.
Auxiliary Roof Mounted Lamp Switch
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this feature, this switch includes
wiring provisions for a dealer or a qualified service
center to install an auxiliary roof lamp.
This switch is located
on the center of the
instrument panel near
the comfort controls.
When the switch wiring is connected to an auxiliary roof
mounted lamp, pressing the switch will activate the
lamp and illuminate an indicator light near the switch.
Pressing the switch again will turn off the roof
mounted lamp.
If your vehicle has this switch, your vehicle may have
the snow plow prep package. For further information see
ªSnow Plow Prep Packageº in the Index.

(Blend): Airflow is delivered through the floor
outlets, center floor console outlets (if equipped), the
windshield defroster outlets and the side window
defroster outlets. The air conditioning compressor may
run to dehumidify the air to prevent window fogging.
(Defrost): This setting directs most of the air
through the windshield defroster outlets, side window
defroster outlets and some air through the floor and
center floor console outlets (if equipped). If air from the
center floor console is not desired, or more defroster
performance is desired, turn the vents off at the
console. When in defrost mode, the air conditioning
compressor may run to dehumidifying the air and limit
window fogging.
(Outside Air): Press this button to direct the
system to use outside air.
Pressing the outside air button will cancel the
recirculation button.
(Recirculation): Press this button to limit the
amount of outside air entering the vehicle. This is
helpful when you are trying to limit odors entering the
vehicle or attempting to quickly cool down the interior.
Pressing recirculation will recirculate air continuously.
Recirculation is used when the fan is OFF to limit odors,
outside air and dust from entering your vehicle. All
button lights will go off. The last setting selected will
activate when the fan is turned back on.
Pressing the recirculation button will cancel the outside
air button. To return to normal operation and to prevent
stale air, be sure to return to outside air.
If the mode knob is placed between floor and blend
mode, outside air is forced to reduce window fogging.
If the recirculation button is pressed, the LED indicator
will flash three times indicating that forced outside air is
activated and recirculation is not available.

(Blend): Airflow is divided equally between the
floor outlet and the windshield defroster outlets. The air
conditioning compressor may run to dehumidify the air
to prevent window fogging.
(Defrost): This setting directs most of the air
through the windshield defroster outlets with airflow
also delivered from the side window and the floor
outlets. When in defrost mode, the air conditioning
compressor may run to dehumidify the air and limit
window fogging.
(Outside Air): Press this button to force the
system to use outside air. Press it again to close off the
outside air.
Pressing the outside air button will cancel the
recirculation button.
(Recirculation): Press this button to limit the
amount of outside air entering your vehicle. This is
helpful when you are trying to limit odors entering your
vehicle or attempting to quickly cool down the interior.
In the AUTO mode, the system will use recirculation as
necessary to cool the air. Pressing the recirculation
button will change the operation to a manual mode and
the air will recirculate non
-stop. Press this button again
to turn off the recirculation feature.
Recirculation may be selected with the fan control in
OFF to limit odors, outside air and dust from entering
your vehicle.
Pressing the recirculation button will cancel the outside
air button.
A/C: Press this button to turn the air conditioning
on and off. The system will cool and dehumidify the air
inside the vehicle when the A/C light is on. When in
AUTO, the A/C is automatically engaged when necessary.
Air conditioning will be automatically disabled when
the outside air temperature drops below a level at which
air conditioning is effective.
Remember that in order for the automatic system to perform
well, it needs A/C to provide cooling performance.

Mode Knob -- Automatic Operation
The right knob on the control panel allows you to
choose the direction of air delivery. When the system is
set for automatic operation, sensors will control the air
delivery mode. Air will come primarily from the floor or
instrument panel outlets, with some air directed to the
windshield to prevent fogging.
When the system is in AUTO mode, the air conditioning
light will turn on, and the recirculation and outside air
lights turn off. With the system in full auto control
(both the fan and mode knobs in AUTO), you still
have the ability to override any function. However,
continually overriding the outside air or the A/C
compressor will limit the ability of the system to
cool the vehicle quickly.
If you push a button for a function which is not
available, the light next to that button will flash
three times to alert you that it's not available.
To find your comfort zone, start with the 74F (23C)
setting and allow about 20 minutes for the system to
adjust the temperature if necessary.With the automatic setting, the air conditioning
compressor automatically cycles when needed to cool
the air. In cold weather, when the system senses the need
for heat, the airflow will be directed out of the floor
outlets. As the interior temperature approaches a desired
setting, the fan speed will decrease. To maintain interior
comfort, the airflow will adjust between the instrument
panel outlets and floor outlets. On bright sunny days in
cool weather, the airflow may come out of the air
conditioning and floor outlets (bi
-level mode) to
maintain comfort and prevent stuffiness.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system
will delay turning on the fan until warm air is available.
The length of delay depends on the outside air
temperature, engine coolant temperature or the time
since the engine was last started. As the coolant warms
up, the fan speed will gradually increase and air will
flow from the floor outlets, with some airflow to
the windshield to prevent fogging under most
normal conditions.
Be careful not to put anything over the solar sensor
located around the center of the instrument panel.
This sensor is used by the automatic system to
regulate temperature.
