HEATER ONLY SYSTEM
(IF EQUIPPED)
1.Fan speed adjustment:Controls
the volume of air circulated in the
vehicle.
2.Temperature selection:
Controls the temperature of the
airflow in the vehicle.
3.Air flow selections:Controls the direction of the airflow in the
vehicle. See the following for a brief description on each control.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents.
O (OFF):Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents and the
floor vents.
:Distributes outside air through the floor vents.
:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster vents and
floor vents.
:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster vents.
OPERATING TIPS
•To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather, place
the air flow selector in the
position.
•To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle during cold or warm
weather, do not drive with the air flow selector in the OFF position.
•Under normal weather conditions, do not leave the air flow selector in
OFF when the vehicle is parked. This allows the vehicle to“breathe”
using the outside air inlet vents.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the air
flow to the back seats.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.

To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather:
1. Select
2. Set the temperature control to full heat
3. Set the fan speed to HI
4. Direct the outer instrument panel vents towards the side windows
To increase airflow to the outer instrument panel vents, close the vents
located in the middle of the instrument panel.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.
MANUAL HEATING AND AIR
CONDITIONING SYSTEM
1.Fan speed adjustment:Controls

vehicle.
2.Temperature selection:
Controls the temperature of the
airflow in the vehicle.
3.Air flow selections:Controls the direction of the airflow in the
vehicle. See the following for a brief description on each control.
MAX A/C:Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. Air flows from the
instrument panel vents only.
A/C:Uses outside air to cool the vehicle. Air flows from the instrument
panel vents only.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents.
O (OFF):Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents and the
floor vents.
:Distributes outside air through the floor vents.
:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster vents and
floor vents.

OPERATING TIPS
•To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather, place
the air flow selector in the
position.
•To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle: do not drive with the
air flow selector in the OFF or MAX A/C position.
•Under normal weather conditions, do not leave the air flow selector in
MAX A/C or OFF when the vehicle is parked. This allows the vehicle
to“breathe”using the outside air inlet vents.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather:
1. Select
2. Select A/C
3. Modulate the temperature control to maintain comfort.
4. Set the fan speed to HI
5. Direct the outer instrument panel vents towards the side windows
To increase airflow to the outer instrument panel vents, close the vents
located in the middle of the instrument panel.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.

ELECTRONIC AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL (EATC)
SYSTEM
1.OFF:Press to turn the system
OFF.
2.AUTOMATIC:Press to engage
automatic mode. The system will
determine fan speed, airflow
location, and outside or recirculated air depending on the selected
temperature. Fan speed will remain automatic unless the thumbwheel is
turned.
Rear defrost
(if equipped): Removes ice and fog from the rear
windshield.
3.Fan speed:Turn to manually
increase or decrease fan speed.

4.Defrost:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster
vents.
5.Floor/defrost:Distributes outside air through the windshield
defroster and floor vents.
6.Floor:Distributes outside air through the floor vents.
7.Panel/floor:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel and
floor vents.
8.Vent:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents and
the floor vents.
9.Max A/C:Distributes recirculated air through the instrument panel
vents to cool the vehicle.
10.Manual override controls:
Press any of these controls to leave
automatic mode and to manually
determine where airflow is directed. To return to full automatic control,
press AUTO.
11.Outside Temp:Press to display
the outside temperature. Will remain
in the display until pressed again.
The temperature will be most accurate when the vehicle is in motion.
AUTO:Press to engage automatic mode. The system will determine fan
speed, airflow location, and outside or recirculated air depending on the
selected temperature. Fan speed will remain automatic unless the
thumbwheel is turned.
12.Temperature controls:Press
to increase or decrease the desired
temperature. In automatic mode, the
system will determine the fan speed,
airflow location, outside or recirculated air to heat or cool the vehicle to
the selected temperature.
13.EXT:Press to display the outside temperature. This temperature will
remain in the display until pressed again. The temperature will be most
accurate when the vehicle is in motion.

Electronic compass/temperature display (if equipped)
Outside air temperature
The outside temperature display is
contained in the overhead console
unless the vehicle is equipped with
an EATC system. Refer toElectric
automatic temperature controlin
theClimate controlschapter.
The temperature display can be
turned off and on by pressing the
SELECT control on the overhead
console. The temperature can be
displayed in Centigrade or
Fahrenheit by pressing the SELECT control. The ignition key must be in
the ON or ACC position.
If the outside temperature falls below 3°C (38°F), the display will
alternate from“ICE”to the outside temperature at a two second rate for
one minute.
Compass
The compass display is contained in the overhead console. The vehicle
heading is displayed as one of N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W and NW.
The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antenna. Magnetic
or metallic objects placed in or on the vehicle may also affect compass
accuracy. Adjustments may need to be made to the zone and calibration
of the compass.
