GENERAL INFORMATION
Condensation in Lamp Assemblies
Exterior lamps have vents to
accommodate normal changes in air
pressure.
Condensation can be a natural by-product
of this design. When moist air enters the
lamp assembly through the vents, there is
a possibility that condensation can occur
when the temperature is cold. When
normal condensation occurs, a fine mist
can form on the interior of the lens. The
fine mist eventually clears and exits
through the vents during normal operation.
Clearing time may take as long as 48 hours
under dry weather conditions.
Examples of acceptable condensation are:
•
The presence of a fine mist (no streaks,
drip marks or large droplets).
• A fine mist covers less than 50% of the
lens.
Examples of unacceptable condensation
are:
• A water puddle inside the lamp.
• Streaks, drip marks or large droplets
present on the interior of the lens.
If you see any unacceptable condensation,
have your vehicle checked by an authorized
dealer. LIGHTING CONTROL

Side Air Vent
MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROL
Fan speed control: Controls the volume of air circulated in your vehicle. Adjust
to select the desired fan speed or switch off. If you switch the fan off, the
windshield may fog up.
A
Recirculated air: Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, the button illuminates and
the air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates. This can reduce
the time needed to cool the interior and reduce unwanted odors from entering
your vehicle.
B
Temperature control: Controls the temperature of the air circulated in your
vehicle. Adjust to select the desired temperature. If you select MAX A/C, the
system distributes recirculated air through the instrument panel air vents. This
mode is more economical and efficient than normal air conditioning. Turn the
temperature control to maximum heat to turn the auxiliary heater on

HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: A small amount of air may be felt
from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats. Note:
Keep the air intakes in front of the
windshield free from obstruction (such as
snow or leaves) to allow the climate control
system to function effectively.
Note: To reduce fogging of the windshield
during humid weather, adjust the air
distribution control to the windshield air
vents position. Increase the temperature
and fan speed and press the A/C button to
improve clearing, if required.

WARNINGS
Do not use the power points for
operating a cigar lighter element.
Do not insert objects other than an
accessory plug into the power points.
Run the engine for full capacity use of the
power points.
Note:
Do not use the power points over the
vehicle capacity of 12 volt DC 180 watt or a
fuse may blow.
Note: Do not hang any accessory from the
accessory plug.
Note: Always keep the power point caps
closed when not in use.
Note: Incorrect use of the power points can
cause damage not covered by the vehicle
warranty.
To prevent the battery from running out of
charge:
• Do not use the power points for longer
than necessary when the engine is not
running.
• Do not leave devices plugged in
overnight or when your vehicle is in park
(P) for extended periods of time.
Note: The power point turns off after 30
minutes if you switched the ignition on
without the engine running. Auxiliary Power Point Locations Auxiliary Power Point locations may be:
•
On the instrument panel.
• Inside the floor console storage
compartment.
• Inside the cargo area.
Note: Do not keep electrical devices or
adaptors plugged in to the auxiliary power
point when not in use.
AC Power Point WARNING
Do not use any extension cord with
the AC power point, since it will
defeat the safety protection design
provided by the cap and twist tab. Doing
so may cause the power point to overload
due to powering multiple devices that can
reach beyond the 150 watt load limit and
could result in fire or personal injury. 103
