provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to consult the dealer or an
experienced radio/TV technician for help.

soft cloth and gently wipe the unit. Only recommended products should
be used.
Do not clean any part of the system with benzene, paint thinner or any
other solvent.
Do not spill liquids of any kind onto the unit.
The navigation system utilizes a database stored in a special format on a
CD. It is recommended always to use the latest update of this map CD.
•The navigation system will only work with CDs specifically intended
for your navigation system.
•Always store the map CDs in their protective cases when not in use.

Map coverage
Please refer to theNavigation System Quick Start Guidefor individual
map CD content details.
CDs contain map data for all of the continental United States and parts
of Canada. In some less populated areas, even though a map is displayed,
map data may be incomplete (does not contain one-way street
information, turn restrictions, speed limits, etc.) In these cases, the
system will alert the driver and route guidance directions on the display
are highlighted in “cautionary” yellow.
Ordering additional map CDs
If you wish to order additional maps, or report possible problems with
your current map CD, please callNAVTEQ at 1–(888) NAV-MAPS,

Latest map CDs
The traffic network is constantly changing due to new roads, traffic
restrictions, etc. Therefore, it is not always possible to exactly match the
digital CD map with the current roadways. To help with accuracy, always
use the latest version of the map CD for navigation.

MANUAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
(IF EQUIPPED)
1.Temperature selection:
Controls the temperature of the
airflow in the vehicle.
2.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
through the instrument panel registers to cool the vehicle. This mode is
more noisy than A/C, but is more economical and efficient and may help
prevent undesirable odors from entering the vehicle.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents and
floor ducts.
O (OFF):Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate.
: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.
3.A/C:Used to manually enable or disable the operation of the air
conditioning in all modes except Floor & Defrost, Defrost and MAX A/C.
4.
: Clears ice and fog from the rear windshield.
5.Fan speed adjustment:Controls the volume of air circulated in the
vehicle.
Since the air conditioner removes moisture from the air, it is considered
normal operation if water drips on the ground under the air conditioner
drain.
The A/C compressor will only function if the outside temperature is
above approximately 2°C (35°F).

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 O (OFF) or (in cold weather) MAX A/C
position.
•Under normal weather conditions, do not leave the air flow selector in
MAX A/C or O (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. Adjust the temperature control to maintain comfort.
4. Set the fan speed to the highest setting.
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.

vehicle. Press to turn on/off in all
modes except
or.
2.Recirculation control:Used to
manually enable or disable the
operation of recirculated air in all
modes except
(defrost). Cools the vehicle more quickly by
recirculating the cabin air instead of using outside air and helps prevent
unpleasant outside odors or fumes from entering the vehicle. In
automatic operation, the recirculated air operates automatically as
necessary to achieve the selected temperature.
3.Passenger side temperature
control:Controls the temperature
on the passenger side of the vehicle
when in dual zone mode. To enter
dual zone, press the passenger temperature control or DUAL. The
passenger temperature will appear in the display.
4.Rear defrost control:Removes
ice and fog from the rear window.
Press to turn on/off.

10.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents.
11.OFF:Outside air is shut out and
the fan will not operate.
12.AUTO:Press AUTO and then
select the desired temperature. The
system will automatically determine
fan speed, airflow location and outside or recirculated air to heat or cool
the vehicle to achieve the selected temperature.
13.Driver’s side temperature
control:Controls the temperature
for both driver and passenger.
Controls only the driver’s side of the
vehicle if operating in DUAL mode.
14.Fan Speed:Used to manually
enable or disable the fan speed.
15.EXT:Displays the outside air
temperature. It will remain
displayed until the EXT control is
pressed again. The external temperature will be most accurate when the
vehicle has been moving for a period of time.
