Dual Automatic Climate Control
System
With this system, you can control the heating,
cooling and ventilation in your vehicle.
You can select different climate control settings for
the driver and passengers.

Automatic Operation
AUTO (Automatic):When automatic operation is
active the system will control the inside
temperature, the air delivery, and the fan speed.
Use the steps below to place the entire system in
automatic mode:
1. Press the AUTO button.
When AUTO is selected, the display will
change to show the current driver’s set
temperature, delivery mode and fan speed.
Press the AUTO button again within
ve seconds to display the passenger’s set
temperature.
If the driver and passenger’s temperature
settings are not the same, the opposite side
temperature setting will be displayed for
an additional ve seconds. To make the
passenger’s temperature the same as
the driver’s press and hold the AUTO button
for about four seconds.
When auto is selected, the air conditioning
operation and air inlet will be automatically
controlled. The air conditioning compressor will
run when the outside temperature is over about
40°F (4°C). The air inlet will normally be set to
outside air. If it’s hot outside, the air inlet mayautomatically switch to recirculate inside air to
help quickly cool down your vehicle. The light
on the button will illuminate in recirculation.
2. Set the driver’s and passenger’s temperature.
To nd your comfort setting, start with a 74°F
(23°C) temperature setting and allow about
20 minutes for the system to regulate. Turn the
driver’s or passenger’s side temperature knob
to adjust the temperature setting as necessary.
If you choose the temperature setting of 60°F
(15°C) the system will remain at the maximum
cooling setting. If you choose the temperature
setting of 90°F (32°C) the system will remain at
the maximum heat setting. Choosing either
maximum setting will not cause the vehicle to
heat or cool any faster.
Be careful not to cover the sensor located on
the top of the instrument panel near the
windshield. This sensor regulates air
temperature based on sun load, and also
turns on your headlamps.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the
system will delay turning on the fan until
warm air is available. The length of delay
depends on the engine coolant temperature.
Pressing the fan switch will override this delay
and change the fan to a selected speed.

revert to the auto recirculation function.
If you select recirculation while in defrost, defog or
oor, the light in the button will ash and then go out
to let you know that this is not allowed. This is
normal and helps to prevent fogging.
When the weather is cool or damp, operating the
system in recirculation for extended periods of time
may cause fogging of the vehicle’s windows. To
clear the fog, select either defog or front defrost.
You may also notice that the A/C compressor will

conditioning compressor will automatically run to
help dehumidify the air and dry the windshield.
Rear Window Defogger
If your vehicle has this feature, the lines you see
on the rear window warm the glass. The rear
window defogger uses a warming grid to remove
fog from the rear window.
<(Rear):Press this button to turn the rear
window defogger on or off. An indicator light in the
button will come on to let you know that the
rear window defogger is activated.
The rear window defogger will turn off about

additional warming time, press the button again.
If your vehicle is equipped with heated mirrors this
button will activate them.
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.

adjust the direction and amount of airow inside
the vehicle. Push the knob in the center of
the outlet up, down, left or right to move the outlet

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.
Warning Lights, Gages, and
Indicators
This part describes the warning lights and gages
on your vehicle. The pictures will help you
locate them.
Warning lights and gages can signal that
something is wrong before it becomes serious
enough to cause an expensive repair orreplacement. Paying attention to your warning
lights and gages could also save you or others
from injury.
Warning lights come on when there may be or
is a problem with one of your vehicle’s functions.
As you will see in the details on the next few
pages, some warning lights come on briey when
you start the engine just to let you know they
are working. If you are familiar with this section,
you should not be alarmed when this happens.
Gages can indicate when there may be or is a
problem with one of your vehicle’s functions. Often
gages and warning lights work together to let you
know when there is a problem with your vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes on and
stays on when you are driving, or when one of the
gages shows there may be a problem, check
the section that tells you what to do about
it. Please follow this manual’s advice. Waiting to
do repairs can be costly – and even dangerous. So
please get to know your warning lights and
gages. They are a big help.
Your vehicle also has a Driver Information
Center (DIC) that works along with warning lights
and gages. SeeDIC Warnings and Messages
on page 226.
