wheel pad to sound the horn.
Tilt Wheel
A tilt wheel lets you adjust the steering wheel before

highest level to give your legs more room when you
enter and exit the vehicle.
The lever that lets you tilt the steering wheel is located
on the left side of the steering column.
To tilt the wheel, hold the

short delay between wiping cycles. This can be
very useful in light rain or snow. Turn the band to
choose the delay time. The closer to the top of the lever,
the shorter the delay.
6(Low Speed):For steady wiping at low speed,
turn the band away from you to the rst solid band
past the delay settings.
1(High Speed):For high-speed wiping, turn the
band further, to the second solid band past the
delay settings.
9(Off):To stop the wipers, move the band to off.
Windshield Washer
At the top of the multifunction lever, there’s a paddle
with the windshield washer symbol on it. To spray
washer uid on the windshield, push the paddle.

until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the
washer uid can form ice on the windshield,
blocking your vision.
When you are low on washer uid, the LOW WASHER
FLUID message will be illuminated in the message
center for 60 seconds. When the ignition is turned off,
this message will appear again for three seconds
to remind you that the uid level is low.
Until the uid tank is relled, every time you start your

3-15

Entry Lighting
Your vehicle may have courtesy lamps that will come on
and stay on for a set time whenever UNLOCK is
pressed on the remote keyless entry transmitter, if you
have one.
If a door is opened, the lamps will stay on while it is
open and then turn off automatically about 25 seconds
after the door is closed. If UNLOCK is pressed and
you do not open a door, the lamps will turn off
after about 40 seconds.
Entry lighting includes a feature called theater dimming.
With theater dimming, the lamps do not turn off at the end
of the delay time. Instead, they slowly dim after the delay
time until they go out. The delay time is canceled if you
turn the ignition key to ON or press the power door lock
switch. The lamps will dim right away.
When the ignition is on, illuminated entry is inactive,
which means the courtesy lamps will not come on unless
a door is opened.
Delayed Entry Lighting

period of time after all the doors have been closed.The ignition must be off for delayed entry lighting to
work. Immediately after all the doors have been closed,
the delayed entry lighting feature will continue to
work until one of the following occurs:
The ignition is in RUN.
The doors are locked.
An illumination period of 25 seconds has elapsed.
If during the illumination period a door is opened,
the timed illumination period will be canceled and the
interior lamps will remain on because a door is open.
Delayed Exit Lighting
This feature illuminates the interior for a period of time
after the key is removed from the ignition.
The ignition must be off for delayed exit lighting to work.
When the key is removed, interior illumination will
activate and remain on until one of the following occurs:
The ignition is in RUN.
The power door locks are activated.
An illumination period of 20 seconds has elapsed.
If during the illumination period a door is opened,
the timed illumination period will be canceled and the
interior lamps will remain on because a door is open.

Climate Controls
Climate Control System
Your vehicle may be equipped with a dual or single
climate control system. With this system you can control
the heating, cooling, defrost, defog and ventilation for
your vehicle.
Manual Operation
Turn the right knob clockwise or counterclockwise to
direct the airow inside of your vehicle.
To change the current mode, select one of the following:
H(Vent):This mode directs air to the instrument
panel outlets.
)(Bi-Level):This mode allows for approximately half
of the air to the instrument panel outlets and to the
oor outlets. Dual Zone with Optional Heated Seat Controls
Single Zone
3-19

6(Floor):This mode directs most of the air to the
oor outlets, with some of the air directed to the
windshield and side window outlets. In this mode, the
system will automatically select Outside Air.
The right knob can also be used to select defog or
defrost mode. For more information, see “Defogging and
Defrosting” later in this section.
By positioning the right knob between two modes, a
combination of those two modes is selected.
It should be noted, that the air conditioning compressor
will be engaged unless the outside temperature is
40°F (4°C) or below. Recirculation cannot be selected
when in Floor Mode.
9(Fan):Turn the left knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the fan speed.
If the airow seems low when the fan is at the highest
setting, the passenger compartment air lter, if
equipped, may need to be replaced. For more
information, seePassenger Compartment Air Filter on
page 3-23andScheduled Maintenance on page 6-4.
:(Outside Air):Press this button to turn the
outside air mode on. When this mode is on, outside air
will circulate throughout your vehicle. When the
button is pressed, an indicator light in the button will
come on to let you know that it is activated. The outside
air mode can be used with all modes, but it cannot
be used with the recirculation mode.
?(Recirculation):Press this button to turn the
recirculation mode on. When the button is pressed, an
indicator light will come on.
This mode keeps outside air from entering the vehicle.
It can be used to prevent outside air and odors from
entering your vehicle. Recirculation may also help heat
or cool the air inside your vehicle more quickly once
the temperature inside the vehicle is equal to or better
than the outside temperature. The recirculation mode
cannot be used with outside air, oor, defrost, or
defogging modes.
Temperature Control:Rotate the thumbwheels up or
down to increase or decrease the temperature on
the driver’s side or the passenger side of the vehicle for
the dual zone system. Turn the center knob clockwise
or counterclockwise to increase or decrease the
temperature for the single zone system.
#(Air Conditioning):Press this button to turn the
air conditioning system on or off. When A/C is pressed,
an indicator light will come on to let you know that
the air conditioning has been activated.
On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside air
escape; then close them. This helps to reduce the time
it takes for your vehicle to cool down. It also helps
the system to operate more efficiently.
