Fog Lamps
Fog lamps provide brighter roadway lighting for better
vision in foggy or misty conditions.
-(Fog Lamps):Turn the second band on the exterior
lamps lever to this position to turn the fog lamps on.
The band will return to its original position.
This symbol will appear
on the instrument panel
cluster when the fog lamps
are on.
To turn the fog lamps off, turn the band up to the fog
lamp symbol and release it. The band will return
to its original position. If the high-beam headlamps
are on the fog lamps will turn off. They will turn back
on again when you switch back to the low-beam
headlamps.
The parking lamps must be on for the fog lamps to work.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
Push forward on the exterior lamps control lever to
change the headlamps from low to high-beam. Pull the
lever back and then release it to change from high
to low-beam.
This symbol on the
instrument panel cluster
will display when the
high-beam lamps are on.
When the high-beam headlamps are on, the fog lamps
will not be on. If your vehicle is equipped with the
Head-Up-Display (HUD) an arrow will appear in the
HUD area to indicate that the high-beams are on.
See
Head-Up Display (HUD) on page 3-19for more
information.
Headlamps On Reminder
A warning chime will sound if the exterior lamp control
is left on in either the headlamp or parking lamp position
and the driver's door is opened with the ignition off.
3-13
Recirculation
h
(Recirculation):Press this button on the climate
control panel to activate the recirculation mode. With
this selection inside air is recirculated into the vehicle
along with some outside air. This mode reduces outside
air and odors from entering your vehicle. It may also
help to heat or cool the air inside your vehicle more
quickly.
When this button is pressed an indicator lamp to the
right of the button will come on to indicate that the
recirculation mode is on. An adjustment to the
instrument panel brightness control to the highest
setting may be required to see the indicator lamp.
The recirculation mode has a timer. After ®ve minutes,
the system's air inlet door will move slightly to allow
for ten percent fresh outside air to maintain interior air
quality. The only way to reset the system to full
recirculation is to restart the ®ve minute timer by
selecting vent/outside air and recirculation again.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window. Be sure to
clear as much snow from the rear window as possible.
Notice:Don't use a razor blade or something
else sharp on the inside of the rear window. If you
do, you could cut or damage the defogger and
the repairs would not be covered by your warranty.
Do not attach a temporary vehicle license, tape,
a decal or anything similar to the defogger grid.
=(REAR):Press this button to turn the rear window
defogger on or off.
When this button is pressed an indicator light to the right
of the button will come on to show that the rear window
defogger is active. The instrument brightness control may
have to be adjusted to the highest setting during the
daytime in order to see the indicator light.
The rear window defogger will turn off approximately
20 minutes after the button is pressed. If reselected,
it will run another 20 minutes. The defogger can
be turned off by pressing the button again or by turning
off the engine.
Do not drive the vehicle until all windows are clear.

Fog Lamp Light
This light will come on
when the fog lamps
are in use.
The light will go out when the fog lamps are turned off.
See ªFog Lampsº under
Exterior Lamps on page 3-12for more information.
High-Beam On Light
This light comes on
whenever the high-beam
headlamps are on.
See ªHeadlamp High/Low-Beam Changerº under
Exterior Lamps on page 3-12for additional information.
Fuel Gage
The fuel gage tells you
about how much fuel
you have left when
the ignition is on.
When the indicator nears empty, you still have a little
fuel left, but you should get more soon.
Here are four things owners usually ask about the fuel
gage. All these situations are normal and do not
indicate a problem with the fuel gage:
·At the gas station the pump shuts off before the
gage reads full.
·It takes more or less fuel to ®ll up than the gage
indicates. For example, the gage reads half full, but it
took more or less than half the tank's capacity to ®ll it.
·The gage pointer may move while cornering, braking
or speeding up.
·The gage may not indicate full when the ignition is
turned off.
