PANORAMIC VISTA ROOF® AND POWER SUNSHADES
(IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:Do not let children play with the panoramic Vista
Roof® and power sunshade or leave children unattended in the
vehicle. They may seriously hurt themselves.
WARNING:When closing the panoramic Vista Roof® and power
sunshade, you should verify that it is free of obstructions and
ensure that children and/or pets are not in the proximity of the
panoramic Vista Roof® and power sunshade opening.
Note:Do not attempt to move the sunshades manually or sunshade
damage or malfunction may occur. The sunshade track clips are designed
to release the sunshade crossbar in order to prevent damage to the
system. If this occurs the sunshade crossbar ends may just need to be
slid back into position to regain proper function. See your authorized
dealer for proper moonroof or sunshade operating, diagnostic or repair
instructions.
Note:If the moonroof is excessively operated, the glass and shade
motors will go into a fail-safe jog mode (manual intermittent operation)
to prevent overheating or damage to the motor. The motors will return
to normal operation after a period of idle time.
The moonroof and sunshade controls are located on the overhead
console.
The moonroof and sunshade have a one-touch open and close feature.
To stop motion during one-touch operation, press the control a second
time.

Manual Climate Control
Note:To reduce fogging of the windshield during humid weather, adjust
the air distribution control to the windshield air vents position.
Automatic Climate Control
Note:Adjusting the settings when your vehicle interior is extremely hot
or cold is not necessary. The system automatically adjusts to heat or cool
the cabin to your selected temperature as quickly as possible. For the
system to function efficiently, the instrument panel and side air vents
should be fully open.
Note:If you selectAUTOduring cold outside temperatures, the system
directs airflow to the windshield and side window vents. In addition, the
fan may run at a slower speed until the engine warms up.
Note:If you selectAUTOduring hot outside temperatures, or when the
inside of the vehicle is hot, the system automatically uses recirculated air
to maximize interior cooling. When the interior reaches the selected
temperature, the system automatically switches to using outside air.

Heated Exterior Mirrors (If Equipped)
Note:Do not remove ice from the mirrors with a scraper or attempt to
readjust the mirror glass that has frozen in place. These actions could
cause damage to the glass and mirrors.
Note:Do not clean the housing or glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum-based cleaning products.
Both mirrors heat to remove ice, mist and fog when you switch on the
heated rear window.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Note:A cabin air filter must be installed at all times to prevent foreign
objects from entering the system. Running the system without a filter in
place could result in degradation or damage to the system.
Your vehicle is equipped with either a screen or filter; the access door is
located behind the glove box.
The particulate air filtration system is designed to reduce the
concentration of airborne particles, such as dust, spores and pollen, in
the air being supplied to the interior of the vehicle. The particulate
filtration system gives the following benefits to customers:
•Improves the customer’s driving comfort by reducing particle
concentration.
•Improves the interior compartment cleanliness.
•Protects the climate control components from particle deposits.
Vehicles with a manual heating and air conditioning system have a screen
which you can wash clean. See theScheduled Maintenancechapter.
Vehicles with a dual automatic temperature control system have a filter
which should be replaced at regular intervals. See theScheduled
Maintenancechapter.
For additional information, or to replace the filter, see an authorized
dealer.

•You place the transmission in neutral (N) or park (P) and
•You switch the keyless ignition off or take the key out of the ignition
switch.
The seat and steering wheel will move to their original positions when:
•You place the transmission in neutral (N) or park (P), and
•You switch the keyless ignition on or put the key in the ignition
switch.
Switch the Easy Entry/Exit feature on or off through the information
display. See theInformation Displayschapter.
HEATED SEATS (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin
because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord
injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other physical conditions,
must exercise care when using the seat heater. The seat heater may
cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time. Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against
heat, such as a blanket or cushion, because this may cause the seat
heater to overheat. Do not puncture the seat with pins, needles, or
other pointed objects because this may damage the heating element
which may cause the seat heater to overheat. An overheated seat may
cause serious personal injury.
Note:Do not do the following:
•Place heavy objects on the seat
•Operate the seat heater if water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat. Allow the seat to dry thoroughly.

Driving In Special Conditions With All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
AWD vehicles are equipped for driving on sand, snow, mud and rough
roads and have operating characteristics that are somewhat different
from conventional vehicles, both on and off the highway.
When driving at slow speeds in deep sand under high outside
temperatures, use a low gear when possible. Lower gear operation will
maximize the engine and transmission cooling capability.
Under severe operating conditions, the A/C may cycle on and off to
protect overheating of the engine.
Basic operating principles in special conditions
•Drive slower in strong crosswinds which can affect the normal steering
characteristics of your vehicle.
•Be extremely careful when driving on pavement made slippery by
loose sand, water, gravel, snow or ice.
If Your Vehicle Goes Off the Edge of the Pavement
•If your vehicle goes off the edge of the pavement, slow down, but
avoid severe brake application, ease the vehicle back onto the
pavement only after reducing your speed. Do not turn the steering
wheel too sharply while returning to the road surface.
•It may be safer to stay on the apron or shoulder of the road and slow
down gradually before returning to the pavement. You may lose
control if you do not slow down or if you turn the steering wheel too
sharply or abruptly.
•It often may be less risky to strike small objects, such as highway
reflectors, with minor damage to your vehicle rather than attempt a
sudden return to the pavement which could cause the vehicle to slide
sideways out of control or rollover. Remember, your safety and the
safety of others should be your primary concern.
If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck
WARNING:Always set the parking brake fully and make sure
the gearshift is latched in P (Park). Turn the ignition to the lock
position and remove the key whenever you leave your vehicle.
WARNING:If the parking brake is fully released, but the brake
warning lamp remains illuminated, the brakes may not be
working properly. See your authorized dealer.
