O (Off): Press the driver side temperature knob to turn
the climate control system off. Outside air still enters the
vehicle, and is directed to the floor. This direction can
be changed by pressing the mode button. The temperature can also be adjusted using either
temperature knob. Press the up or down arrows on the
fan switch, the defrost button, the AUTO button, driver's
side temperature knob, or the air conditioning button to
turn the system on when it is off.
Driver and Passenger Side
Temperature Knob The driver and passenger side temperature knobs are
used to adjust the temperature of the air coming
through the system on the driver or passenger's side of
the vehicle. The temperature can be adjusted even if
the system is turned off. This is possible since outside
air always flows through the system as the vehicle is
moving forward unless it is set to recirculation mode.
See “ Recirculation ” later in this section.
Turn the knob clockwise or counterclockwise to
increase or decrease the cabin temperature. The
display will show the temperature setting increasing or
decreasing.
Set the passenger temperature setting to match the
driver temperature setting by pressing the passenger
temperature knob.
When in defrost mode the passenger temperature
setting cannot be changed.

If the engine has stopped running, you need to
restart it. With the brake pedal pressed and the
parking brake still applied, shift the transmission
to P (Park) and restart the engine. Then, shift to
R (Reverse), release the parking brake, and slowly
back down the hill as straight as possible in
R (Reverse). .
While backing down the hill, put your left hand
on the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position so
you can tell if the wheels are straight and can
maneuver as you back down. It is best to back
down the hill with the wheels straight rather than in
the left or right direction. Turning the wheel too far
to the left or right will increase the possibility of a
rollover.
Things not to do if the vehicle stalls, or is about to stall,
when going up a hill: .
Never attempt to prevent a stall by shifting into
N (Neutral) to rev-up the engine and regain forward
momentum. This will not work. The vehicle can roll
backward very quickly and could go out of control. .
Never try to turn around if about to stall when
going up a hill. If the hill is steep enough to stall
the vehicle, it is steep enough to cause it to roll
over. If you cannot make it up the hill, back straight
down the hill. If, after stalling, you try to back down the hill and decide
you just cannot do it, set the parking brake, put your
transmission in P (Park), and turn off the engine. Leave
the vehicle and go get some help. Exit on the uphill side
and stay clear of the path the vehicle would take if it
rolled downhill.
Driving Downhill When off-roading takes you downhill, consider: .
How steep is the downhill? Will I be able to
maintain vehicle control? .
What is the surface like? Smooth? Rough?
Slippery? Hard-packed dirt? Gravel? .
Are there hidden surface obstacles? Ruts? Logs?
Boulders? .
What is at the bottom of the hill? Is there a hidden
creek bank or even a river bottom with large
rocks?
If you decide you can go down a hill safely, try to keep
the vehicle headed straight down. Use a low gear so
engine drag can help the brakes so they do not have to
do all the work. Descend slowly, keeping the vehicle
under control at all times.
