the mirror is adjusted to the correct position,
tighten the set screw, located at the end of the
arm, to hold the mirror in place. These mirrors can
also be manually folded in.
On the lower portion of each mirror is a convex
mirror. A convex mirror’s surface is curved so you
can see more from the driver’s seat.
Outside Power Mirrors
If the vehicle has power
mirrors, the control is
located on the driver’s
side door.Select each mirror by turning the knob clockwise
for the passenger’s side mirror or counterclockwise
for the driver’s side mirror. The center position
is neutral.
Then, adjust the mirror angle by moving the knob
in the desired direction.
Outside Convex Mirror
Your passenger’s side mirror may be convex.
A convex mirror’s surface is curved so you can see
more from the driver’s seat.
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like
other vehicles) look farther away than
they really are. If you cut too sharply into
the right lane, you could hit a vehicle on
your right. Check your inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier
for others to see the front of your vehicle during
the day. DRL can be helpful in many different
driving conditions, but they can be especially
helpful in the short periods after dawn and before
sunset. Fully functional daytime running lamps
are required on all vehicles first sold in Canada.
The DRL system will come on when the following
conditions are met:
•The ignition is on.
•The exterior lamps control is in DRL mode
and not in the defeat position.
When the DRL are on, only the parking lamps will
be on. The other lamps will not be on. The
instrument panel will be lit.
When you turn the headlamp switch off, the
headlamps will go off, and your DRL lamps
(parking lamps) will illuminate.
To turn off the DRL, turn the exterior lamp control
to the off position or shift into PARK (P). The
DRL will stay off until the control is toggled again
or the vehicle is shifted out of PARK (P).
This procedure applies only to vehicles first sold in
the United States.
Instrument Panel Brightness
Press this knob located
next to the exterior
lamps knob to extend it,
and then turn it to
adjust the instrument
panel brightness.
Turn the knob all the way clockwise to turn on the
interior lamps. Press the knob back into its
stored position when not in use.
Dome Lamps
The dome lamps will automatically come on when
a door is opened and turn off shortly after all
doors are closed.

Ashtray(s) and Cigarette Lighter
Your vehicle may have this feature. The front
ashtray can be placed in the instrument panel
extension at the center of the instrument panel.
Lift up on the ashtray door to open it.
Notice:If you put papers, pins, or other
ammable items in the ashtray, hot cigarettes
or other smoking materials could ignite
them and possibly damage your vehicle.
Never put ammable items in the ashtray.
To use the cigarette lighter, push it in all the way
and let go. When it’s ready, it will pop back
out by itself.
Notice:Holding a cigarette lighter in while it
is heating will not allow the lighter to back
away from the heating element when it is hot.
Damage from overheating may occur to the
lighter or heating element, or a fuse could be
blown. Do not hold a cigarette lighter in
while it is heating.
Climate Controls
Climate Control System
With this system you can control the heating,
cooling and ventilation for your vehicle.
Turn the right knob clockwise or counterclockwise
to direct the airflow 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.
159
Page 160 of 452

)(Bi-Level):This mode directs about half of the
air to the instrument panel outlets, then directs
most of the remaining air to the floor outlets. Some
air may be directed toward the windshield.
6(Floor):This mode directs most of the air to
the floor outlets with some air directed to the
outboard outlets (for the side windows) and some
air directed to the windshield.
The right knob can also be used to select the
defrost and defog modes. Information on defogging
and defrosting can be found later in this section.
9(Fan):Turn the left knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the fan
speed.
Temperature Control:Turn the center knob
clockwise or counterclockwise to increase
or decrease the temperature inside your vehicle.If your vehicle has air conditioning, your heating/air
conditioning controls will look like this:
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.
A/C (Air Conditioning):This setting will begin
to cool and dehumidify the air inside of your
vehicle.
MAX A/C (Maximum Air Conditioning):Turn the
right knob to MAX A/C for maximum cooling.
This setting cools the air the fastest, by
recirculating the inside air.

Rear Air Conditioning and
Heating System
Your vehicle may have a rear heating and
air-conditioning system. This system regulates the
temperature, the fan speed and the air delivery for
the rear-seat passengers only. It also works with
the main climate-control system in your vehicle.
Use this control panel when you would like to
maintain a separate temperature setting. Adjust the
direction of the airflow or adjust the fan speed
for the rear seat passenger(s).If your vehicle has a 135 inch (343 cm) wheelbase,
a rear control panel for this system is located in
the second row behind the driver in the rear
of your vehicle. A rear seat passenger can use
this control panel to personally adjust the
temperature, the direction of the airflow and the
fan speed for the rear seating area.
The fan knob located on the front climate control
panel must be turned to REAR CNTL to allow a rear
seat passenger to use the control panel in the rear
seating area. Performing this action disables the
front control panel. To return control to this panel,
move the fan knob out of REAR CNTL.
Turn the center knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to change the direction of the
airflow in the rear seating area.

To change the current mode, select one of the
following:
H(Vent):Use this mode to direct air to the upper
outlets, with a little air directed to the floor outlets.
2(Floor):Use this mode to direct most of the
air to the floor outlets.
9(Fan):Turn the left knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to HIGH, MED (Medium) or
LOW to increase or decrease the fan speed in the
rear-seating area. Turn the knob to OFF to turn
off the fan.Temperature Control:To increase or decrease
the temperature for the rear of the vehicle, turn the
right knob located on the climate-control panel.
The air-conditioning system on the main climate
control panel must be turned on to direct cooled air
to the rear of the vehicle. If it is not on, then the
temperature in the rear of the vehicle will remain at
cabin temperature.
Be sure to keep the area under the front seats
clear of any objects so that the air inside of your
vehicle can circulate effectively.
For information on how to use the main climate
control system, seeClimate Control System on
page 159. For information on ventilation, seeOutlet
Adjustment on page 162.
