speed by adjusting the blower control outer
dial. The fan will now operate at a fixed speed
until additional speeds are selected. This al-
lows the front occupants to control the volume
of air circulated in the vehicle and cancel the
Auto mode.
The operator can also select the direction of the
airflow by selecting one of the following posi-
tions.
Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the instru-
ment panel. Each of these outlets can be
individually adjusted to direct the flow of
air. The air vanes of the center outlets and
outboard outlets can be moved up and down or
side to side to regulate airflow direction. There
is a shut off wheel located below the air vanes
to shut off or adjust the amount of airflow from
these outlets.
Bi-Level Mode Air comes from the instrument panel
outlets, floor outlets and defrost outlets.
190
NOTE:
In many temperature positions, the BI-
LEVEL mode is designed to provide cooler
air out of the panel outlets and warmer air
from the floor outlets.
Floor Mode
Air comes from the floor outlets. A slight
amount of air is directed through the
defrost and side window demister outlets.
Mix ModeAir comes from the floor, defrost and
side window demist outlets. This mode
works best in cold or snowy conditions.
It allows you to stay comfortable while
keeping the windshield clear.
Defrost Mode Air comes from the windshield and side
window demist outlets. Use Defrost
mode with maximum temperature set-
tings for best windshield and side window
defrosting. When the defrost mode is selected,
the blower will automatically default to medium-
high unless the blower is controlled manually. NOTE:
While operating in the other modes, the
system will not automatically sense the
presence of fog, mist or ice on the wind-
shield. Defrost mode must be manually se-
lected to clear the windshield and side
glass.
Air Conditioning (A/C)
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the
operator to manually activate or deactivate the
air conditioning system. When in A/C mode and
the ATC is set to a cool temperature, dehumidi-
fied air flows through the air outlets. If Economy
mode is desired, press the A/C button to turn
off the A/C mode in the ATC display and
deactivate the A/C system.

• Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle
to get it started. Vehicles equipped with an
automatic transmission cannot be started
this way. Unburned fuel could enter the
catalytic converter and once the engine has
started, ignite and damage the converter
and vehicle. If the vehicle has a discharged
battery, booster cables may be used to
obtain a start from a booster battery or the
battery in another vehicle. This type of start
can be dangerous if done improperly. Refer
to “Jump Starting” in “What To Do In Emer-
gencies” for further information.

For example, if the driver shifts the transmission
into ERS 3 (third gear), the transmission will
never shift above third gear, but can shift down
to 2 (second) or 1 (first), when needed.
NOTE:
•If you pull and hold (not tap) the shift lever
to the left (-), the transmission will down-
shift to the lowest gear that can be at-
tained without overrevving the engine.
The display will show the gear the vehicle
is in and will limit the top gear to the one
displayed.
•
If you push and hold (not tap) the shift
lever to the right (+), the transmission will
exit the gear limiting mode and shift to the
appropriate gear. The display will read D .
3.6L and 3.0L Diesel Engine
When in the DRIVE position, the first tap to the
left (-) will shift down one gear and will display
that gear. For example, if you are in DRIVE and
are in fifth gear, when you tap the shift lever one
time to the left (-), the transmission will down-
shift to fourth gear and the display will show 4.
Another tap to the left (-) will shift the transmis-
sion into third gear. 5.7L Engine
On vehicles equipped with the 5.7L engine,
use of ERS (or TOW/HAUL mode) also enables
an additional underdrive gear which is not
normally used during through-gear accelera-
tions. This additional gear improves vehicle
performance and cooling capability when tow-
ing a trailer on certain grades. ERS 1, 2, and 3
are underdrive gears; ERS 4 is direct drive. ERS
5 (Overdrive) is the same as the normal 4th
gear. When in the DRIVE position in first through
fourth gear, the first tap to the left (-) will display
the ERS designation for the current gear (the
transmission will not downshift). For example, if
you are in DRIVE and are in third (direct) gear,
when you tap the shift lever one time to the left
(-), the display will show 4 (ERS 4 is direct
gear). Another tap to the left (-) will shift the
transmission down to ERS 3 (the added under-
drive gear). When in the DRIVE position in fifth
gear, the first tap to the left (-) will downshift the
transmission and display 5 (ERS 5 is the same
as normal fourth gear). Another tap to the left (-)
will shift the transmission down to ERS 4 (direct
gear).
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking
on a slippery surface. The drive wheels could
lose their grip and the vehicle could skid.
