Phonebook entries:Once theBluetoothsystem connects to your
phone, it will attempt to automatically download your Phonebook entries
so that you can easily access them later. The maximum number of
entries vary depending on the information attached to the number.
Voice recognition
YourBluetoothsystem is equipped with a voice recognition system
which allows you to perform some operations by speaking certain
commands to the system. The system will respond with a series of beeps,
confirmations or questions when necessary. At any time, you can say,
“Cancel” if you do not wish to continue, or “Help” for a list of possible
voice commands in your current mode. Speak the command clearly to
ensure that the system is able to recognize and perform the desired
function.
For best system performance:
•After pressing VOICE on the
stalk, wait until the beep is heard
before speaking a command. Any
command spoken prior to this will
not register with the system.
•Speak naturally without large
pauses in between words.
•Ensure that the interior of the
vehicle is as quiet as possible.
Wind noise from open windows and road vibrations may prevent the
system from correctly recognizing spoken voice commands.
At any time, you can say these commands:
•Phone•Radio
•CD player•Cancel
•External device•Help
External device:Auxiliary input jack
Note:This system is language specific. If you would like the system to
operate in another language, please contact your authorized dealer.

3.Fan speed adjustment:Controls the volume of air circulated in
the vehicle. For optimum defrosting performance, set the dial to at least
the 3 or 4 position near the
(defrost) symbol.
4.
Recirculated air:Press to activate/deactivate air recirculation
in the vehicle cabin. Recirculated air may reduce the amount of time
required to cool down the interior of the vehicle and may also help
reduce undesired odors from reaching the interior of the vehicle.
Recirculated air will not function in
(defrost).
5.A/C:Press to activate/deactivate air conditioning. Use with
recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency. Engages

(defrost).
Operating tips
•To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather,
select
(defrost) and set the fan speed dial to the 3 or 4 position
near the
(defrost) symbol. Also, set the temperature setting to
the defrost symbol
during cooler weather.
•To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle, do not drive with the
system off or with
(recirculated air) engaged and A/C off.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
•To improve the time to reach comfort in hot weather, drive with the
windows slightly open for 2-3 minutes after start up or until the
vehicle has been “aired out.”
During extreme high ambient temperatures when idling stationary for
extended periods of time in gear, it is recommended to run the A/C in
the max A/C mode, reduce blower fan speed from the highest setting and
put the vehicle’s transmission into the P (Park) gear position to continue
to receive cool air from your A/C system.
For maximum cooling performance, select max A/C by doing the
following:
1. Select the coolest temperature setting.
2. Select recirculation air mode.
3. Set the fan to the highest speed initially. As the interior starts to cool
down, adjust the fan speed to maintain comfort and/or switch from
recirculated air to outside air mode.
