WARNING!(Continued)
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
• Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured. Chil-
dren should be warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the transmission gear selec-
tor.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or
in a location accessible to children. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up
may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation. Always re-
move the key from the ignition and lock all the
doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder
Opening the driver’s door when the key is in the
ignition and the ignition switch position is in the STOP
(OFF/LOCK) position, sounds a signal to remove the
key.
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System prevents unauthor-
ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The
system does not need to be armed or activated. Opera-
tion is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses ignition keys which have an embedded
electronic chip (transponder) to prevent unauthorized
vehicle operation. Therefore, only keys that are pro-
grammed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate
the vehicle.
NOTE: A key which has not been programmed is also
considered an invalid key, even if it is cut to fit the
ignition switch lock cylinder for that vehicle.
If the vehicle security light is on after the key is turned
to the MAR/ON/RUN position, it indicates that there
is a problem with the electronics.

MIRRORS
Automatic Dimming Mirror With Rear View
Camera Display
This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight glare
from vehicles behind you.
The mirror head can be manually adjusted up, down,
left, and right. The mirror should be adjusted to center
on the view through the rear window.
When the vehicle is placed into REVERSE, a video
display within the mirror illuminates to display the
image generated by the rear view camera located on the
trunk lid below the brake light.NOTE:
The auto dimming feature is also disabled to
improve rear view viewing while vehicle is in RE-
VERSE.
Outside Mirrors
To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside mirrors
to center on the adjacent lane of traffic and a slight
overlap of the view obtained from the inside mirror.
NOTE: The passenger side convex outside mirror will
give a much wider view to the rear, and especially of the
lane next to your vehicle.

A/C Button
Push and release to change the current setting, the indicator illuminates when A/C is on.
Performing this function again will cause the A/C operation to switch into manual mode
and the A/C indicator will turn off.
MAX A/C
For maximum cooling, use the A/C and recirculation modes at the same time.
ECONOMY MODE
If economy mode is desired, press the A/C switch to turn off the A/C compressor. Then,
rotate the temperature control to the desired temperature.
Recirculation And Outside Air Knob
Slide this knob over to one of the two settings to change the system between recirculation
mode and outside air mode. Recirculation can be used when outside conditions such as
smoke, odors, dust, or high humidity are present.
NOTE:
•Continuous use of the Recirculation mode may make the inside air stuffy and window
fogging may occur. Extended use of this mode is not recommended.
•The use of the Recirculation mode in cold or damp weather could cause windows to fog
on the inside, because of moisture buildup inside the vehicle. Select the outside air posi-
tion for maximum defogging.
•Recirculation can be used in all modes except for Defrost.
•The A/C can be deselected manually without disturbing the mode control selection.

Bi-Level Mode
Bi-Level Mode
Air comes from the instrument panel outlets and floor outlets. A slight amount of air is
directed through the defrost and side window demister outlets.
NOTE:
Bi-Level mode is designed under comfort conditions to provide cooler air out of the panel
outlets and warmer air from the floor outlets.
Floor Mode
Floor Mode
Air comes from the floor outlets. A slight amount of air is directed through the defrost and
side window demister outlets.
Mix Mode
Mix Mode
Air is directed through the floor, defrost, and side window demister outlets. This setting
works best in cold or snowy conditions that require extra heat to the windshield. This set-
ting is good for maintaining comfort while reducing moisture on the windshield.
Front Defrost Mode
Air comes from the windshield and side window demist outlets. When the defrost mode is
selected, the blower level will increase. Use Defrost mode with maximum temperature set-
tings for best windshield and side window defrosting and defogging.

midifies the air. Adjust the controls as described previ-
ously and switch on the climate control system by
pressing the A/C button.
Window Demisting
