LOAD LEVELING SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The automatic load leveling system will provide a level-
riding vehicle under most passenger and cargo loading
conditions.
A hydraulic pump contained within the shock absorbers
raises the rear of the vehicle to the correct height. It takes
approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) of driving for the leveling to
complete depending on road surface conditions.
If the leveled vehicle is not moved for approximately 15
hours, the leveling system will bleed itself down. The
vehicle must be driven to reset the system.
ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF EQUIPPED
The crossbars on your vehicle are delivered stowed within
the roof rack side rails. If adding cargo, deploy the cross-
bars. Distribute cargo weight evenly on the roof rack
crossbars, to maximum of 150 lbs (68 kg). The roof rack
does not increase the total load carrying capacity of the
vehicle. Be sure the total load of cargo inside the vehicle
plus that on the external rack does not exceed the maxi-
mum vehicle load capacity.

CLIMATE CONTROLS
The Climate Control system allows you to regulate the
temperature, amount, and direction of air circulating
throughout the vehicle. The controls are located on the
instrument panel, below the radio.
Manual Heating And Air Conditioning System — If
Equipped
The controls for the manual system in this vehicle contain
a series of outer rotary dials and inner push knobs. These
comfort controls can be set to obtain desired interior
conditions. With the Three-Zone Temperature Control system, each
front seat occupant can independently control the Heating,
Ventilation and Air Conditioning operations coming from
the outlets on their side of the vehicle.
The primary control for the rear blower is on the front
climate control unit located on the instrument panel. When
the front control is in any position other than rear, the front
control operates all the rear functions.
The rear airflow modes will mirror the front unit operation.
Rear Panel mode is automatically selected when the front
control is in the Panel mode. When the front unit is in
Bi-Level mode, airflow will be emitted from both the upper
and lower rear outlets. When the front control is in Floor,
Defrost, or Mix modes, airflow will be directed out of the
