Sensors
The automatic climate controlsystem uses sensors to maintaintemperatures. The solar sensor ison the instrument panel near thewindshield, and the outsidetemperature sensor is in front of theradiator.
The solar sensor monitors the solarradiation when operating in AUTOmode, adjusting the temperature,fan speed and air delivery.
The system may also supply coolerair to the side of the vehicle facingthe sun. The recirculation mode willalso be activated, as necessary.
The outside temperature sensor canbe affected by radiant heat whenthe vehicle is not moving.
To p r e v e n t f a l s e t e m p e r a t u r ereadings, the displayed temperaturewill not update at low vehiclespeeds.
If the vehicle has been turned off forless than four hours, thetemperature at start up will berecalled from previous operation.
Do not cover the sensors; otherwisethe automatic climate control systemwill not work properly.

Curve Tips
.Ta k e c u r v e s a t a r e a s o n a b l espeed.
.Reduce speed before entering acurve.
.Maintain a reasonable steadyspeed through the curve.
.Wait until the vehicle is out ofthe curve before acceleratinggently into the straightaway.
Steering in Emergencies
.There are some situations whensteering around a problem maybe more effective than braking.
.Holding both sides of thesteering wheel allows you to turn180 degrees without removingahand.
.The Antilock Brake System(ABS) allows steering whilebraking.
Off-Road Recovery
The vehicle's right wheels can dropoff the edge of a road onto theshoulder while driving. Followthese tips:
1. Ease off the accelerator andthen, if there is nothing in theway, steer the vehicle so that itstraddles the edge of thepavement.
2. Turn the steering wheel aboutone-eighth of a turn, until theright front tire contacts thepavement edge.
3. Turn the steering wheel to gostraight down the roadway.
Loss of Control
Skidding
There are three types of skids thatcorrespond to the vehicle's threecontrol systems:
.Braking Skid—wheels are notrolling.
.Steering or Cornering Skid—too much speed or steering in acurve causes tires to slip andlose cornering force.
.Acceleration Skid—too muchthrottle causes the drivingwheels to spin.
Defensive drivers avoid most skidsby taking reasonable care suited toexisting conditions, and by notoverdriving those conditions. Butskids are always possible.
If the vehicle starts to slide, followthese suggestions:
.Ease your foot off theaccelerator pedal and steer theway you want the vehicle to go.
