NOTE:
•The transmitter has been tested and it complies with
FCC and IC rules. Changes or modifications not ex-
pressly approved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the user ’s authority to operate the
device.
• The term IC before the certification/registration number
only signifies that Industry Canada technical specifica-
tions were met.
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
rear floor outlets.
