This function automatically reg-
ulates the Electronic Climate
Control system so that the
selected temperatures are
maintained. The blower, heat-
ing, air distribution (air flow), air
conditioning, and optional air quality sensor
are controlled. If you prefer to manually set any
of these functions, the remaining functions will
still be controlled automatically. Pressing the
AUTObutton overrides any settings that were
previously made manually.
Rear window and door mirror defrosters
This function defrosts/de-ices

These controls are used to indi-
vidually set the temperature for
both sides of the passenger
compartment. Please note that
the compartment will not be
heated or cooled faster by set-
ting the temperature higher or lower than nec-
essary.

WARNING
Always place the gear selector in Park or in
reverse on models with a manual transmis-
sion, and apply the parking brake before
leaving the vehicle. Never leave the vehicle
unattended with the engine running.
Always open garage doors fully before star-
ting the engine inside a garage to ensure
adequate ventilation. The exhaust gases
contain carbon monoxide, which is invisible
and odorless but very poisonous
CAUTION
Automatic transmission
The engine should be idling when you move
the gear selector. Never accelerate until
after you feel the transmission engage!
Accelerating immediately after selecting a
gear will cause harsh engagement and pre-
mature transmission wear.
SelectingP or N when idling at a standstill
for prolonged periods of time will help pre-
vent overheating of the automatic transmis-
sion fluid.Do not race a cold engine immediately after
starting.

how this reduces the available cargo and
luggage load capacity of your vehicle.WARNING
•
Exceeding the permissible axle weight,
gross vehicle weight, or any other
weight rating limits can cause tire over-
heating resulting in permanent defor-
mation or catastrophic failure.
•
Do not use replacement tires with lower
load carrying capacities than the tires
that were original equipment on the
vehicle because this will lower the vehi-
cle's GVW rating. Replacement tires
with a higher limit than the originals do
not increase the vehicle's GVW rating
limitations.

245 Three-way catalytic converter –
general information
•
Keep your engine properly tuned. Certain
engine malfunctions, particularly involving
the electrical, fuel or distributor ignition
systems, may cause unusually high three-
way catalytic converter temperatures. Do
not continue to operate your vehicle if you
detect engine misfire, noticeable loss of
power or other unusual operating condi-
tions, such as engine overheating or back-
firing. A properly tuned engine will help
avoid malfunctions that could damage the
three-way catalytic converter.
•
Do not park your vehicle over combustible
materials, such as grass or leaves, which
can come into contact with the hot exhaust
system and cause such materials to ignite
under certain wind and weather condi-
tions.
•
Excessive starter cranking (in excess of
one minute), or an intermittently firing or
flooded engine can cause three-way cata-
lytic converter or exhaust system over-
heating.
Remember that tampering or unauthorized
modifications to the engine, the Electronic
Control Module, or the vehicle may be illegal
and can cause three-way catalytic converter or
exhaust system overheating. This includes:
•
Altering fuel injection setting or compo-
nents.
•
Altering emission system components or
location or removing components.
•
Repeated use of leaded fuel.NOTE
Unleaded fuel is required for vehicles with
three-way catalytic converters.
