Mirrors
Inside Day/Night Rearview Mirror
To reduce glare from lights behind you, pull the lever
toward you (to the night position). To return the mirror
to the day position, press the lever away from you.
Power Remote Control Rearview Mirrors
The control, located on the
driver's door, operates both
outside rearview mirrors.Turn the control counterclockwise to select the driver's
side rearview mirror, or clockwise to select the
passenger's side rearview mirror. Then use the control
to adjust each mirror so that you can see a little of the
side of your vehicle and the area beside and behind
your vehicle when you are sitting in a comfortable
driving position.
If you are not adjusting either mirror, leave the control
in the center off position. This prevents moving the
mirrors accidentally once you have them adjusted.
Both outside mirrors can be folded forward or rearward.
In the rearward position, they will fold almost flush with
the vehicle. This feature is particularly useful in
automatic car washes.
Your mirrors have a blue tint to reduce glare while
driving at night.

Comfort Controls
This section tells you how to make your air system work
for you.
With this system, you can control the heating, cooling
and ventilation in your vehicle. Your vehicle also has
a flow
-through ventilation system described later in
this section.
Fan Knob
The left knob is the fan knob and is used to select the
force of air you want. Turn the knob clockwise to
increase fan speed and counterclockwise to decrease fan
speed. The fan must be turned on for the air
conditioning compressor to operate.Temperature Knob
The center knob controls the temperature of the air
coming through the system. Turn it clockwise toward
the red area for warmer air. Turn it counterclockwise
toward the blue area for cooler air.
Mode Knob
The right knob is used to select the direction of the air
flowing into the vehicle.
(Vent): This setting directs air through the
instrument panel outlets.
(Bi-Level): This setting directs air into your
vehicle in two ways. Cooler air is directed toward your
upper body through the instrument panel outlets, while
warmer air is directed through the floor ducts.
(Floor): This setting brings in most of the air
through the floor ducts. This setting is also used to send
air to the rear of the vehicle. Keep the area under the
front seats free of objects that could obstruct airflow to
the rear of the vehicle.

3-3
(Defog): This setting directs air to the windshield
and through the floor ducts. This mode is useful during
cold or inclement weather because of your vehicle's
larger windshield area.
(Defrost): This setting directs most of the air to the
windshield and side window vents.
Mode Buttons
(Outside Air): Press this button to send outside
air into your vehicle. The light in the button will glow
when outside air is in use. Using this setting while trying
to defrost or defog the windows will help clear the vents
of moisture. While floor, defog or defrost mode is
selected, the system will automatically go to outside
air mode.
(Recirculation): Press this button to limit the
amount of outside air entering your vehicle. The light in
the button will glow when outside air is in use. You may
use this setting to limit odors entering your vehicle.
Operating the Heating/Ventilation/Air Conditioning
(HVAC) system in the recirculation mode may cause
fogging of the vehicle's windows when the weather iscold and damp. To clear the fog, switch the HVAC
system to either the defog or defrost mode and increase
the fan speed. To avoid re
-fogging of the windows,
operate the HVAC system in the outside air mode.
A/C (Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn
the air conditioning compressor on and off. The light in
the button will glow when the air conditioning is in use.
Air Conditioning
On very hot days, your vehicle will cool down more
quickly and economically if you open the windows long
enough to let hot, inside air escape. For all settings,
adjust the temperature control knob and fan speed
as desired.
To get maximum cooling or a quick cool
-down on
very hot days, press the A/C and recirculation buttons
and turn the temperature knob counterclockwise toward
the blue area. Adjust the mode knob to direct the air to
the desired location. This setting should not be used for
long periods of time because the air may become too
cold and dry. Push the A/C button again the to turn off
the air conditioning.

Rear Comfort Controls
The rear climate control knobs are located in the panel
above the driver's seat.
Turn the temperature knob counterclockwise to the blue
area for cooler air, or clockwise to the red area for
warmer air.
Turn the rear fan knob to adjust the force of air coming
through the rear outlets.
Select the desired climate control mode using the
directional controls on the instrument panel. See ªMode
Knobº earlier in this section. The mode you choose will
regulate both the front and rear climate control systems.Rear Air Vents
To maximize airflow through the rear floor outlet, place
the left bucket seat in the second row in the forward
position. See ªAdjusting Rear Seatsº in the Index.
The vent behind the left rear seat is the cold air return
