Recirculated air: Press the
button to switch between
outside air and recirculated air.
The air currently in the passenger
compartment recirculates. This
can reduce the time needed to
cool the interior and reduce
unwanted odors from entering
your vehicle.
G
Note:
Recirculated air may also
turn on and off automatically in
instrument panel or instrument
panel and floor airflow modes
during hot weather to improve
cooling efficiency.
OFF:
Press the button to switch
the system on and off. When the
system is off, it prevents outside
air from entering the vehicle.
H

using the temperature control.
The system adjusts fan speed,
air distribution, air conditioning
operation, and selects outside
air or recirculated air to heat or
cool the vehicle in order to
maintain the desired
temperature.
J Temperature Control You can set the temperature between 61°F
(16°C)
and 82°F (28°C). In position low,
the system switches to permanent cooling.
In position high, the system switches to
permanent heating.
Note: If you select either position low or
high, the system will not regulate a stable
temperature.
HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints WARNING:
Prolonged use of
recirculated air may cause the windows
to fog up. If the windows fog up, follow
the settings for demisting the windshield.
Note: You may feel a small amount of air
from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.

SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNING: Do not recline the
seatback too far as this can cause the
occupant to slide under the seatbelt,
resulting in serious injury in the event of
a collision. WARNING:
Always sit upright
against your seatback with your feet on
the floor. WARNING:
Do not place objects
higher than the top of the seat backrest.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death in the
event of a sudden stop or crash. When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, seatbelt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a crash. We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
• Do not recline the seat backrest so that
your torso is more than
30° from the
upright position.
• Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.
• Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of
10 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag cover.
• Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.
• Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.
• Position the shoulder strap of the
seatbelt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.
HEAD RESTRAINTS WARNING:
Fully adjust the head
restraint before you sit in or operate your
vehicle. This will help minimize the risk
of neck injury in the event of a crash. Do
not adjust the head restraint when your
vehicle is moving.

WARNING: The head restraint is
a safety device. Whenever possible it
should be installed and properly
adjusted when the seat is occupied.
Failure to adjust the head restraint
properly could reduce its effectiveness
during certain impacts. WARNING:
Install the head
restraint properly to help minimize the
risk of neck injury in the event of a crash.
Note: Adjust the seat backrest to an upright
driving position before adjusting the head
restraint. Adjust the head restraint so that
the top of it is level with the top of your head
and as far forward as possible. Make sure
that you remain comfortable. If you are
extremely tall, adjust the head restraint to
its highest position.

3. Stow the safety belt in the belt
stowage clip. This prevents the safety
belt from getting caught in the seat
latch.
Note: Do not attempt to fold the rear seat
cushion forward.
Unfolding the Seatback WARNING: When unfolding the
seatback up, take care not to get your
hands caught between the seatback and
the frame, catches or mechanism. Failure
to take care may result in personal injury. WARNING:
Make sure that any
cargo or objects are not trapped behind
the seatback. Make sure the safety belts
are not trapped in any way when
unfolding the seatback up. Failure of an
occupant to be able to use a trapped
safety belt increases the risk of serious
personal injury or death. WARNING:
Make sure that the
seatback is fully engaged in its catch. A
seatback which is not fully engaged in
its catch could move in the event of an
accident. This may result in serious
personal injury or death.
HEATED SEATS WARNING: People who are unable
to feel pain to their skin because of
advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes,
spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol or
drug use, exhaustion or other physical
conditions, must exercise extreme care
when using the heated seat. The heated
seat may cause burns even at low
temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time. An overheated seat may
cause serious personal injury. WARNING:
Do not place anything
on the seat that insulates against heat,
for example; blankets or cushions. This
may cause the heated seat to overheat.
An overheated seat may cause serious
personal injury.
