Rear Safety Belt Comfort Guides
Rear shoulder belt comfort guides may provide
added safety belt comfort for older children
who have outgrown booster seats and for some
adults. When installed on a shoulder belt, the
comfort guide positions the belt away from
the neck and head.
There is one guide for each rear passenger
position in the rear seat. Here is how to
install a comfort guide to the shoulder belt:
1. Remove the guide from its storage pocket
on the side of the seatback for the outboard
positions. For the center position, remove
the guide from its storage pocket on the side
of the seatback.

To remove the rear glass do the following:
1. Fold the rear seats. SeeRear Seat Operation
on page 19for more information. The front
seats may have to be moved forward slightly
to allow the rear seats to fold completely.
Although the rear glass can be removed
without folding the rear seats, you will not
be able to access the rear glass storage
pocket. Be sure to fold the seats before
removing the rear glass.
2. Squeeze and pull down the latch levers (A),
located near the upper corners of the rear
glass, to unlatch. Once unlatched, the
glass-catch release button (C) will catch the
rear glass and prevent it from falling forward.

6. Push the rear glass at against the window
frame and push each latch lever up until it
locks. You should hear a click when each
latch lever locks correctly.

Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid
to remove fog from the rear window.
<(Rear Window Defogger):Press this button
to turn on the rear window defogger. It will
automatically turn off several minutes after it
has been activated. The defogger can also be
turned off by pressing the button again or by
turning off the engine. Do not drive the vehicle
until all the windows are clear.
If your vehicle has heated outside rearview
mirrors, the mirrors will heat to help clear fog
or frost from the surface of the mirror when
the rear window defog button is pressed.
Notice:Do not use a razor blade or sharp
object to clear the inside rear window. Do not
adhere anything to the defogger grid lines
in the rear glass. These actions may damage
the rear defogger. Repairs would not be
covered by your warranty.
Outlet Adjustment
Your vehicle has air outlets located in the center
and on the side of your instrument panel that
allow you to adjust the direction and amount of
airow inside the vehicle. Move the louvers up or
down. Use the thumbwheel next to or underneath
the outlet to close the louvers. For the most
efficient airow and temperature control, keep
the outlet in the fully opened position.
Operation Tips

Keep the hood and front air inlets free of ice,
snow, or any other obstruction, such as
leaves. The heater and defroster will work far
better, reducing the chance of fogging the
inside of your windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats clear
of objects. This helps air to circulate
throughout your vehicle.
Adding outside equipment to the front of your
vehicle, such as hood-air deectors, etc.,
may affect the performance of the heating
and air conditioning system. Check with
your dealer before adding equipment to the
outside of your vehicle.
