Driver's Side Temperature Knob
The driver's side knob is used to adjust the temperature
of the air coming through the system on the driver's
side. Turn the knob counterclockwise to lower the cabin
temperature. The display will show the temperature
decreasing as you turn the knob counterclockwise. Turn

word DRIVER will be displayed under the temperature
setting. If the passenger's set temperature has not been
adjusted, this knob controls both the driver's and
passenger's air temperature.
Passenger's Side Temperature Knob

display will show the temperature decreasing as you turn
the knob counterclockwise. Turn the knob clockwise to
increase the cabin temperature. The display will show
the temperature increasing as you turn the knob
clockwise. When this knob is adjusted, only the word
PASS will be displayed under the temperature setting.
The temperature to the rear seat area is controlled by
using this knob.Once this knob is used, the passenger's set temperature
will remain independent of the driver's until the ignition
has been turned off.
Fan Switch

mode to the floor, panel or windshield outlets. The
system will stay in the selected mode until the MODE
button is pressed again or the AUTO button is pressed.
Display
In full AUTO mode, the automatic climate control
system display will show the outside temperature,
labeled EXT for external temperature, and AUTO.
If you press the MODE button to select an air delivery
mode, the display will change to also show you the
current system mode. If you press the up or down
arrows on the fan switch, the display will change to

Automatic Operation
Press the AUTO button to set the system to
automatically control the air delivery mode, fan speed,
air temperature and recirculation operations. Whenever
you press AUTO, the display will change to show the
current driver's set temperature, automatic air delivery
mode and fan speed. Press the AUTO button again
within five seconds and the display will show the
passenger's set temperature. After five seconds the
display will change to the EXT (external) temperature
outside the vehicle.
When AUTO is selected, the air conditioning operation
and air inlet will be automatically controlled. The air
conditioning compressor will run when outside
temperature is over approximately 40F (4C).
The air inlet will normally be set to outside air. If it's
hot outside, the air inlet will automatically switch
to recirculated inside air to help quickly cool down
your vehicle.
To find your comfort setting, start with a 74 F (23C)
temperature setting and allow about 20 minutes for the
system to regulate. Turn the driver's or passenger's side
temperature knob clockwise or counterclockwise to
adjust the temperature setting as necessary. If you
choose the temperature setting of 60F (15C), thesystem will remain at the maximum cooling setting and
fan speed. If you choose the temperature setting of 90F
(32C), the system will remain at the maximum heat
setting and fan speed. Choosing either maximum setting
will not cause the system to heat or cool any faster.
Be careful not to cover the sensor located on the top of
the instrument panel near the windshield. This sensor
regulates air temperature based on sun load, and also
turns on your headlamps.
The EXT (exterior) temperature sensor is located in the
front of the vehicle behind the grille. The displayed
temperature is most accurate after the vehicle has been
moving for a few minutes. If the vehicle is stopped and
then restarted within 2 1/2 hours, the sensor will be hot
from the engine heat. In this case, the temperature first
displayed will continue to be the temperature that was
displayed before the vehicle was turned off. The display
will update after the vehicle has been moving for a few
minutes and the sensor has a chance to cool down to the
actual temperature.
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 engine coolant
temperature. Pressing the fan switch will override this
delay and change the fan to a selected speed.

Using RDS Mode
Your audio system is equipped with a Radio Data
System (RDS). RDS is a system that sends data along
with the audio of the FM station you are currently tuned
to. RDS displays program information and can control
your radio. With RDS, the radio can do the following:
Seek only to stations with the types of programs you
want to listen to,
seek to stations with traffic announcements,
receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies, and
receive and display messages from radio stations.RDS features are only available on FM stations that
broadcast RDS information. The RDS features on your
radio rely on receiving specific RDS information from
these stations. These features will only work when the
RDS information is available. In rare cases, a radio
station may broadcast incorrect information that will
cause the radio features to work improperly. If this
happens, please contact the radio station.
When you are tuned to an RDS station, the station name
will appear on the display, instead of the frequency.
Most RDS stations provide their station name, the time
of day and a Program Type (PTY) for their current
programming. Some stations also provide the name of
the current program.
TUNE DISP: Press this control to change what appears
on the display while using RDS. Pressing this control
will also display an RDS station frequency or program
type when the radio is on. The display options are
station name, station frequency, PTY and the name of
the program (if available). Pressing and holding this
control will activate the RDS default display.
