A lever style height adjustment feature enhances comfort
for petite as well as tall drivers. A lever with a ratcheting

raises and lowers it. Total travel is 2.2 in. (56 mm). Reclining Bucket Seats
The recliner control is on the side of the seat. To recline,
lean forward slightly before lifting the lever, then lean
back to the desired position and release the lever. Lean

This feature heats leather or cloth front driver and
passenger seats. The controls for the heated seats are
located in the center console below the climate controls.
There are indicator lights in the switches, which indicate
a low heat setting (one light lit) or high heat setting (two
lights lit). FOLD-FLAT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT
The recline handle on the front passenger seat also
releases the seatback to fold forward.

cabin infrared sensor mounted between the sun-visors
and from various sensors located throughout the vehicle.
The controls on the climate control provide the system
with operator input. Other sensors take account of ve-
hicle speed, A/C pressure, outside temperature, and
engine cooling temperature. Using all of these inputs, the
system automatically adjusts airflow temperature, air-
flow distribution, airflow volume, and the amount of
outside air recirculation. This maintains a comfortable
temperature even under changing conditions.
Operation of the system is quite simple.
1. Turn the Mode Control knob (on the right) and the
Blower Control knob (on the left) to AUTO.
NOTE: The AUTO position performs best for front seat
occupants only. 2. Dial in the temperature you would
like the system to maintain by rotating
the Temperature Control knob.
Once the comfort level is selected, the system will main-
tain that level automatically using the heating system.
Should the desired comfort level require air conditioning,
the system will automatically make the adjustment.
You will experience the greatest efficiency by simply
allowing the system to function automatically. Selecting
the ªOº (Off) position on the blower control stops the
system completely and closes the outside air intake.
72ÉF (22ÉC) is the recommended setting for maximum
comfort for the average person; however, this may vary. UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 247
