Cruise Control
Cruise control lets a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph)
or more be maintained without keeping your foot on
the accelerator. Cruise control does not work at speeds
below 40 km/h (25 mph).
{WARNING:
Cruise control can be dangerous where you
cannot drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not
use the cruise control on winding roads or in
heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads.
On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can
cause excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on slippery roads.
Setting Cruise Control
{WARNING:
If you leave your cruise control on when you are
not using cruise, you might hit a button and go
into cruise when you do not want to. You could be
startled and even lose control. Keep the cruise
control switch off until you want to use cruise
control.
The cruise control buttons
are located on the steering
wheel.
I(On/Off):Press to turn the cruise control system
on and off.

is activated the climate control system heats or cools
the inside of the vehicle using the modes that were set
before the vehicle was turned off. The climate control
knobs will remain active during a remote start. However,
the climate control buttons will be inactive until the
ignition is turned on by the key. If the fan is off,
the climate control system will not operate during remote
start. SeeRemote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation on page 3-3.

Select from the following:
H(Vent):Air is directed to the instrument panel
outlets.
)(Bi-Level):Air is divided between the instrument
panel outlets and the floor outlets.
6(Floor):Air is directed to the floor outlets with
some air directed to the side window outlets.
-(Defog):This mode clears the windows of fog or
moisture. Air is directed to the floor and windshield
outlets.
0(Defrost):This mode clears the windows of fog or
frost more quickly. The system automatically controls
the fan speed if defrost is selected from the AUTO
mode. If the outside temperature is 40°F (4°C) or
warmer, the air conditioning compressor automatically
runs to help dehumidify the air and dry the windshield.
The air conditioning indicator light blinks three times
if the compressor is turned off while in this mode.
#(Air Conditioning):Press turn the air conditioning
on and off. An indicator light turns on to show the
air conditioning is on.
When air conditioning is selected or is in AUTO mode,
the system runs the air conditioning automatically to
cool and dehumidify the air entering the vehicle.On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for
the vehicle to cool down. Then keep the windows closed
for the air conditioner to work its best.
On cool, but sunny days while using manual operation
of the automatic system, use bi-level to deliver warm
air to the floor and cooler air to the instrument
panel outlets. To warm or cool the air delivered, press
the temperature buttons to the desired setting.
In AUTO mode the system cools and dehumidifies the
air inside the vehicle. Also while in AUTO mode,
the system maximizes its performance by using
recirculation as necessary.
Heating:On cold days when using manual operation of
the automatic system, use floor mode to deliver air to
the floor outlets. To warm or cool the air delivered, press
xorwto the desired temperature setting.
To use the automatic mode, turn the knob to AUTO and
press
xorwto adjust the temperature.
:(Outside Air):Press to turn the outside air mode
on. An indicator light comes on to show it is on. Air from
outside the vehicle will circulate throughout the vehicle.
The outside air mode can be used with all modes, but it
cannot be used with the recirculation mode. Pressing this
button cancels the recirculation mode.

Remote Start Climate Control Operation
For vehicles with remote start, when it is activated the
climate control system heats and cools the inside of
the vehicle using the previous system settings before the
vehicle was turned off. The climate control knobs will
remain active during a remote start. However, the
climate control buttons will be inactive until the ignition
is turned on by the key. If the fan is off, the climate
control system will not operate during remote start.
With the automatic climate control system, the climate
control displays “RS” in place of the temperature to
indicate that remote start is activated. For best
performance, turn both the fan and mode knobs to
AUTO. If the temperature is cold enough and the mode
knob is set to AUTO, the system begins in defrost to
clear the windows. SeeRemote Keyless Entry

Here are four things that some owners ask about.
These are normal and do not indicate a problem with
the fuel gage:
•At the service station, the gas pump shuts off
before the gage reads full.
•It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
gage indicated. For example, the gage may have
indicated the fuel tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than half the fuel tank’s
capacity to fill it.
•The indicator moves a little when while turning a
corner or speeding up.
•The gage goes back to empty when the ignition is
turned off.
