Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control will work on hills depends
upon your speed, load and the steepness of the
hills. When going up steep hills, you may want to step
on the accelerator pedal to maintain your speed.
When going downhill, you may have to brake or shift to
a lower gear to keep your speed down. Of course,
applying the brake takes you out of cruise control. Many
drivers ®nd this to be too much trouble and don't use
cruise control on steep hills.
Ending Cruise Control
There are two ways to turn off the cruise control:
·Step lightly on the brake pedal,
·or move the cruise control switch to off.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition, your
cruise control set speed memory is erased.
Exterior Lamps
The control on the driver's
side of your instrument
panel operates the exterior
lamps. Turn the control
clockwise to operate
the lamps.
The exterior lamp control has four positions:
é (Defeat):Turn and release the control to this
position to turn off the DRLs. To turn them back on, turn
and release the control to this position again. Shutting
the vehicle off and restarting it will also reactivate
the DRLs.
This feature is not available on vehicles ®rst sold
in Canada.

Turn the center knob clockwise or counterclockwise
to change the direction of the air¯ow in the
rear-seating area.
To change the current mode, select one of the following:
D(Vent):Use this mode to direct air to the upper
outlets, with a little air directed to the ¯oor outlets.
2(Floor):Use this mode to direct most of the air to
the ¯oor outlets.
9(Fan):Turn the left knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to HIGH, MED (Medium) or LOW to
increase or decrease the fan speed in the rear-seating
area. Turn the knob to OFF to turn off the fan.
(Temperature Control):To increase or decrease the
temperature for the rear of the vehicle, turn the right
knob located on the climate-control panel.
The air-conditioning system on the main climate-control
panel must be turned on to direct cooled air to the
rear of the vehicle. If it is not on, then the temperature
in the rear of the vehicle will remain at cabin
temperature.
Be sure to keep the area under the front seats clear of
any objects so that the air inside of your vehicle can
circulate effectively.For information on how to use the main climate-control
system, see
Climate Control System on page 3-19listed previously in this section. For information
on ventilation, see ªOutlet Adjustmentº earlier in this
section.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high humidity
(moisture) condensing on the cool window glass. This
can be minimized if the climate control is used properly.
There are two modes to clear fog or frost from your
windshield and side windows.
Use the defog mode to clear the windows of fog or
moisture and warm the passengers. Use the defrost
mode to remove fog or frost from the windshield more
quickly. For best results, clear all snow and ice from the
windshield before defrosting.
Turn the knob on the right of the climate control panel
to select the defog or defrost mode.
-(Blend):With this setting, the outside air comes out
of both the ¯oor and defroster outlets. Adjust the
temperature knob for warmer or cooler air. The air
conditioning compressor may operate in this setting to
dehumidify the air.
1(Defrost):This setting operates the defroster.
Most of the air comes out near the windshield, with
some going to the ¯oor outlets and front side windows.

Cassette Tape Messages
CHK TAPE (Check Tape):If CHK TAPE appears on
the radio display, the tape won't play because of one of
the following errors.
·The tape is tight and the player can't turn the tape
hubs. Remove the tape. Hold the tape with the
open end down and try to turn the right hub
counterclockwise with a pencil. Turn the tape over
and repeat. If the hubs do not turn easily, your
tape may be damaged and should not be used in
the player. Try a new tape to make sure your player
is working properly.

to get the cassette out. Try a new tape.

tapes, but you should clean it as soon as possible to
