Hazard Warning Flashers
Your hazard warning ¯ashers let you warn others. They
also let police know you have a problem. Your front
and rear turn signal lamps will ¯ash on and off.The hazard warning
¯asher button is located on
the instrument panel
above the navigation
system.
Your hazard warning ¯ashers work no matter what
mode the ignition is in, even if the ignition is turned off.
Press the button to make the front and rear turn
signal lamps ¯ash on and off. Press the button again to
turn the ¯ashers off.
When the hazard warning ¯ashers are on, your turn
signals will not work.
Other Warning Devices
If you carry re¯ective triangles, you can set one up at
the side of the road about 300 feet (100 m) behind your
vehicle.

?(Recirculation):Press this button to turn the
recirculation mode on or off. The air-conditioning
compressor also comes on. This mode keeps outside
air from coming in the vehicle. It can be used to prevent
outside air and odors from entering your vehicle or to
help cool the air inside your vehicle more quickly.
Recirculation is not available in defrost or
¯oor/defog mode.
Using recirculation for long periods of time may cause
the air inside your vehicle to become too dry. To prevent
this from happening, after the air in your vehicle has
cooled, turn the recirculation mode off.
Sensors
There are sensors to measure the temperature and
sun's effect on passenger comfort.
The solar sensor on your vehicle monitors the solar
radiation then uses the information to maintain the
selected temperature when operating in AUTO mode by
initiating needed adjustments to the temperature, the
fan speed and the air delivery system. The system may
also supply cooler air to the side of the vehicle facing
the sun. The recirculation mode will also be activated, as
necessary. Do not cover the solar sensor located on
the top right side of the instrument panel near the
windshield or system will not work properly.There is also a sensor located behind the front bumper.
This sensor reads the outside air temperature and
helps maintain the temperature inside the vehicle. The
outside temperature will be displayed in the navigation
system only when the engine is running. Any cover
on the front of the vehicle could give a false reading of
the temperature.
If the outside temperature goes up, the display
temperature will not change until:
·The vehicle's speed is above 10 mph (16 km/h) for
®ve minutes.
·The vehicle's speed is above 32 mph (51 km/h) for
two and one-half minutes.
These delays prevent false readings. If the temperature
goes down, the outside temperature will be shown
when you start the vehicle. If it has been turned off for
less than three hours, the temperature will be recalled
from the previous vehicle operation.
There is also an inside temperature sensor located to
the left of the ignition button. The automatic climate
control system uses this sensor to receive information,
so if you block or cover it, the system will not function
properly.

Navigation/Radio System
Your vehicle is equipped with a navigation radio system
that includes Digital Signal Processing (DSP), a
Radio Data System (RDS) with Program Type (PTY)
selections that will seek out the kind of music you want
to listen to. The radio can also communicate with
the navigation system to broadcast announcements on
traffic, weather, and emergency alert communications.
For information on how to use this system, see the
ªNavigation Systemº manual.
Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCKžis designed to discourage theft of your
vehicle's radio. The feature works automatically by
learning a portion of the Vehicle Identi®cation Number
(VIN). If the radio is moved to a different vehicle, it
will not operate. If the radio is removed from your
vehicle, the original VIN in the radio can be used to
trace the radio back to your vehicle.
With THEFTLOCK
žactivated, the radio will not operate
if stolen.
Audio Steering Wheel Controls
Some audio controls can
be adjusted at the steering
wheel. They include the
following:
g(Voice Recognition):See ªOnStaržSteering
Wheel Controlsº under
OnStaržSystem on page 2-35for more information.
SRCE (Source):Press this button to switch between
FM1, FM2, AM, or XM1 or XM2 (if equipped), CD,
or DVD.
