✽✽NOTICE
When using the air conditioning system, monitor the engine temper-
ature gauge closely while driving
up hills or in heavy traffic when
outside temperatures are high. Air
conditioning system operation may
cause engine overheating.
Continue to use the blower fan but
turn the air conditioning system off
if the engine temperature gauge
indicates engine overheating.
When opening the windows in humid weather, air conditioning
may create water droplets inside
the vehicle. Since excessive water
droplets may cause damage to
electrical equipment, air condi-
tioning should only be operated
with the windows closed. Air conditioning system operation
tips
If the vehicle has been parked in
direct sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
To help reduce moisture inside of the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the airconditioning system.
During air conditioning system operation, you may occasionallynotice a slight change in enginespeed as the air conditioning com-
pressor cycles. This is a normal
system operation characteristic.
Use the air conditioning system every month for a few minutes to
ensure maximum system perform-
ance. When using the air conditioning
system, you may notice clear water
dripping (or even puddling) on the
ground under the passenger side
of the vehicle. This is a normal sys-
tem operation characteristic.
Operating the air conditioning sys- tem in the recirculated air position
provides maximum cooling, how-
ever, continual operation in this
mode may cause the air inside the
vehicle to become stale.
During cooling operation, you may occasionally notice a misty air flow
because of rapid cooling and
humid air intake. This is a normal
system operation characteristics.

WARNING
(Continue)
Always drive slowly and turn
corners carefully when carry-
ing items on the roof rack.
Severe wind updrafts, caused
by passing vehicles or natural
causes, can cause sudden
upward pressure on items
loaded on the roof rack. This
is especially true when carry-
ing large, flat items such as
wood panels or mattresses.This could cause the items to
fall off the roof rack and cause
damage to your vehicle or
others around you.

cargo while driving, check fre-
quently to make sure the
items on the roof rack are
securely fastened.
