after approximately 40 seconds if no buttons are pressed
and the vehicle is in Park. You may also calibrate the
compass by completing one 360°turn in an area free fromlarge metal or metallic objects, the“COMPASS CALI-
BRATING”EVIC message will turn off and the compass
will function normally.

If the compass appears erratic and the“COMPASS CALI-
BRATING”message does not appear in the EVIC display,
you must put the compass into the Calibration Mode
manually.
To put into a Calibration Mode:Turn on the ignition
switch and set the display to Compass. Press the RESET
button for at least 10 seconds until the“COMPASS
CALIBRATING”message appears. Release the RESET
button and complete one 360°turn in an area free from

second time the indicator light turns off, the blower will
turn off and the system will be positioned in the recircu-
lation mode.
Blower Control
The Blower controls the amount of air delivered to
the passenger compartment. There are four blower
speeds.
The fan speed increases as you
move the control clockwise.
Dual Zone Temperature Control—If Equipped
With the Dual Zone Temperature Control System, each
front seat occupant can independently control the tem-
perature of air coming from the outlets on their side of
the vehicle.
This is accomplished by having a separate temperature
control lever for both the driver and front seat passenger.
The blue area of the scale indicates cooler temperatures
while the red area indicates warmer temperatures.

is turned OFF or if the“POWER”button is pressed.
If the recirculation indicator light is lit, the recirculation
mode is enabled. If the recirculation indicator light is not
lit, the recirculation mode is OFF. The programmed status
can be changed back and forth by following the above
mentioned procedure.
Dual-Zone Automatic Temperature Control
The Dual Zone Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
System automatically maintains the interior comfort level
desired by the driver and front seat passenger. This is
accomplished by using two infrared sensors located in
the center of the instrument panel. The two infrared
sensors independently measure the surface temperature
of the driver and front seat passenger. Based on the
sensor input, the system automatically adjusts the air
temperature, the airflow volume, the airflow distribu-
tion, and amount of inside air recirculation to maintainfront seat occupant comfort, even under changing out-
side weather conditions.
