MANUAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
Note:The rear climate controls (G through J) are only available on
some utility models.
A.Power:Press the button to turn the system on and off. Switching off
the climate control system prevents outside air from entering the vehicle.
B.Air distribution control:Press these buttons to turn airflow from
the windshield, instrument panel, or footwell vents on or off. The system
can distribute air through any combination of these vents.
C.A/C:Press the button to turn air conditioning compressor on or off.
Use air conditioning with recirculated air to improve cooling performance
and efficiency.
D.Recirculated air:Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When recirculated air is selected, the air currently in the
passenger compartment recirculates. This may reduce the time needed
to cool the interior (when used withA/C)and may also reduce
unwanted odors from entering your vehicle.
Note:Recirculated air may turn off automatically (or be prevented
from turning on) in all airflow modes exceptMAX A/Cto reduce risk
of fogging.
E.MAX A/C:Turn the temperature control dial all the way past the full
cool position to maximize cooling. Recirculated air flows through the
instrument panel vents, air conditioning automatically turns on, and the
fan automatically adjusts to the highest speed.

Do not use razor blades or other sharp objects to clean the inside
of the rear window or to remove decals from the inside of the
rear window. This may cause damage to the heated grid lines.
Your warranty does not cover this damage.
Heated Exterior Mirrors (If Equipped)

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:Make sure you have a cabin air filter installed at all times. This
prevents 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 a cabin air filter, which is located just in
front of the windshield under the cowl grille on the passenger side of
your vehicle.
The particulate air filtration system reduces the concentration of
airborne particles, such as dust, spores and pollen, in the air supplied to
the interior of your 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.
For more information regarding the interval at which you should replace
the cabin air filter, see theScheduled Maintenancechapter.
For additional cabin air filter information, or to replace the filter, see an
authorized dealer.

Guarding Against Exhaust Fumes
WARNING:If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have
this checked immediately. Do not drive your vehicle if you smell
exhaust fumes. Carbon monoxide is present in exhaust fumes. Take
precautions to avoid its dangerous effects.
Important Ventilating Information
If you stop your vehicle and leave the engine idling for long periods, we
recommend that you do one of the following:
•Open the windows at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters).
•Set your climate control to outside air.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:Failure to follow engine block heater instructions
could result in property damage or personal injury.
WARNING:Do not use your heater with ungrounded electrical
systems or two-pronged (cheater) adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock.
Note:The heater is most effective when outdoor temperatures are below
0°F (-18°C).
The heater acts as a starting aid by warming the engine coolant. This
allows the climate control system to respond quickly. The equipment
includes a heater element (installed in the engine block) and a wire
harness. You can connect the system to a grounded 120–volt A/C
electrical source.
We recommend that you do the following for safe and correct operation:
•Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord that is product certified by
Underwriter’s Laboratory or Canadian Standards Association. This
extension cord must be suitable for use outdoors, in cold
temperatures, and be clearly markedSuitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances.Never use an indoor extension cord outdoors; it could
result in an electric shock or become a fire hazard.
•Use as short an extension cord as possible.
•Do not use multiple extension cords.

Towing an all-wheel drive vehicle requires that all wheels be off the
ground, such as using a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment. This
prevents damage to the transmission, all-wheel drive system and vehicle.
TOWING THE VEHICLE ON FOUR WHEELS
Emergency Towing
If your vehicle becomes inoperable (without access to wheel dollies,
car-hauling trailer, or flatbed transport vehicle), it can be flat-towed (all
wheels on the ground, regardless of the powertrain and transmission
configuration) under the following conditions:
•Your vehicle is facing forward for towing in a forward direction.
•Place the transmission in positionN.SeeAutomatic transmissionin
theTransmissionchapter if you cannot move the transmission into
N.
•Maximum speed is 35 mph (56 km/h).
•Maximum distance is 50 miles (80 kilometers).
Recreational Towing
Vehicles Equipped with a 2.0L Engine
Note:Put your climate control system in recirculated air mode to
prevent exhaust fumes from entering your vehicle. See theClimate
Controlchapter.
Follow these guidelines if you have a need for recreational towing, such
as towing your vehicle behind a motorhome. We designed these
guidelines to prevent damage to your transmission.
Front-wheel drive vehiclesCANNOTbe flat-towed (all wheels on the
ground) as vehicle or transmission damage may occur. You must place
the front wheels on a two-wheel tow dolly. If you are using a tow dolly,
follow the instructions specified by the equipment provider.
Vehicles Equipped with a 3.5L or 3.7L Engine
Note:Put your climate control system in recirculated air mode to
prevent exhaust fumes from entering your vehicle. See theClimate
Controlchapter.
Follow these guidelines if you have a need for recreational towing, such
as towing your vehicle behind a motorhome or truck. We designed these
guidelines to prevent damage to your vehicle after it is hooked-up to the
recreational vehicle or tow dolly.
