Low fuel (if equipped)

Illuminates as an early reminder of alow fuel condition indicated on the

fuel gauge (refer to Fuel gauge inthis chapter for more information).When refueling, after the lightcomes on, the amount of fuel that is added will be less than theadvertised capacity since there is fuel still in the tank. The ignition mustbe in the ON position for this lamp to illuminate. The lamp will alsoilluminate for several seconds after the ignition is turned to the ONposition regardless of the fuel level to ensure your bulb is working.

Check engine

Your vehicle is equipped with acomputer that monitors the enginesemission control system. Thissystem is commonly known as theOn Board Diagnostics System (OBDII). This OBD II system protects the environment by ensuring that your

vehicle continues to meet government emission standards. The OBD IIsystem also assists the service technician in properly servicing your

vehicle.

The Check Engine indicator light illuminates when the ignition is first

turned to the ON position to check the bulb. If it comes on after theengine is started, one of the engines emission control systems may bemalfunctioning. The light may illuminate without a driveability concernbeing noted. The vehicle will usually be drivable and will not requiretowing.

What you should do if the check engine light illuminates

Light turns on solid:

This means that the OBD II system has detected a malfunction.

Temporary malfunctions may cause your Check Engine light toilluminate. Examples are:

1. The vehicle has run out of fuel. (The engine may misfire or runpoorly.)

2. Poor fuel quality or water in the fuel.

3. The fuel cap may not have been properly installed and securelytightened.

These temporary malfunctions can be corrected by filling the fuel tank

with high quality fuel of the recommended octane and/or properlyinstalling and securely tightening the gas cap. After three driving cycleswithout these or any other temporary malfunctions present, the Check

Engine light should turn off. (A driving cycle consists of a cold enginestartup followed by mixed city/highway driving.) No additional vehicleservice is required.

If the Check Engine light remains on, have your vehicle serviced at thefirst available opportunity.

Light is blinking:

Engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter.You should drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration anddeceleration) and have your vehicle serviced at the first availableopportunity.

Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperaturescould damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior

floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.

Air bag readiness

Momentarily illuminates when theignition is turned ON. If the lightfails to illuminate, continues to flashor remains on, have the systemserviced immediately.

Engine coolant temperature (if equipped)

Illuminates when the engine coolanttemperature is high. Stop the

vehicle as soon as safely possible,switch off the engine and let it cool.

Never remove the coolantrecovery cap while the

engine is running or hot.

Refer to Engine coolant in the Maintenance and care chapter. If lightstays on or continues to turn on after the vehicle warms up, have your

vehicle serviced.This light also illuminates briefly when the ignition key is turned to ON.

Momentarily illuminates when theignition is turned to the ONposition. Also illuminates if theparking brake is engaged. If brake

warning lamp does not illuminate at these times, seek serviceimmediately. Illumination after releasing the parking brake indicates lowbrake fluid level and the brake system should be inspected immediately.

Anti-lock brake system (ABS)

Momentarily illuminates when theignition is turned to the ONposition. If the light remains on,continues to flash or fails toilluminate, have the system servicedimmediately. With the ABS light on, the anti-lock brake system isdisabled and normal braking is still effective unless the brake warninglight also remains illuminated with the parking brake released.

Turn signal

Illuminates when the left or rightturn signal or the hazard lights areturned on. If one or both of theindicators stay on continuously or

Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the airduring operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under

the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after youhave stopped the vehicle.

MAX A/C-Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. MAX A/C is noisierthan NORM A/C but more economical and will cool the inside of the

vehicle faster. Airflow will be from the instrument panel registers. Thismode can also be used to prevent undesirable odors from entering the

vehicle.

NORM A/C-Uses outside air to cool the vehicle. It is quieter than MAXA/C but not as economical. Airflow will be from the instrument panel

registers.

VENT-Distributes outside air through the instrument panel registers.However, the air will not be cooled below the outside temperaturebecause the air conditioning does not operate in this mode.

OFF-Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate. For shortperiods of time only, use this mode to prevent undesirable odors fromentering the vehicle.

FLR-Allows for maximum heating by distributing outside air throughthe floor ducts. However, the air will not be cooled below the outsidetemperature because the air conditioning does not operate in thismode.

MIX-Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster ducts andthe floor ducts. Heating and air conditioning capabilities are providedin this mode. For added customer comfort, when the temperaturecontrol knob is anywhere in between the full hot and full coldpositions, the air distributed through the floor ducts will be slightlywarmer than the air sent to the windshield defroster ducts. If thetemperature is about 10C (50F) or higher, the air conditioner will

automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.

DEF -Distributes outside air through the windshield defrosterducts. It can be used to clear ice or fog from the windshield. If thetemperature is about 10C (50F) or higher, the air conditioner willautomatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.

Operating tips

In humid weather, select before driving. This will reduce foggingon your windshield. After a few minutes, select any desired position.


27

7/30/2019 00croog1e

28/224

To prevent humidity buildup inside the vehicle, do not drive with theclimate control system in the OFF or MAX A/C position.

Do not put objects under the front seat that will interfere with theairflow to the back seats.

Remove any snow, ice or leavesfrom the air intake area (at thebottom of the windshield).

If your vehicle has been parked with the windows closed during hotweather, the air conditioner will do a much faster job of cooling if youdrive for two or three minutes with the windows open. This will forcemost of the hot, stale air out of the vehicle. Then operate your airconditioner as you would normally.

Do not place objects over the defroster outlets. These objects canblock airflow and reduce your ability to see through your windshield.

Also, avoid placing small objects on top of your instrument panel.These objects can fall down into the defroster outlets and blockairflow and possibly damage your climate control system.

Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel, as theseobjects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.

Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (EATC) system(if equipped)

The EATC system will maintain aselected temperature andautomatically control airflow. Youcan override automatic operationwith any of the override controls orthe fan speed control.

Turning the EATC on

Press AUTOMATIC, any of theoverride controls or the fan speedcontrol. The EATC will only operatewhen the vehicle is running.

Turning the EATC off

Press OFF. The OutsideTemperature function will continueto operate until the ignition is

turned off.

Automatic operation

Press AUTOMATIC and select the desired temperature. The selectedtemperature and the word AUTO will appear in the display window. The

EATC system will either heat or cool to achieve the selectedtemperature. The system will automatically determine fan speed, airflowlocation and if outside air or recirculated air is required. Fan speedremains automatic unless the fan speed thumbwheel is turned.

When in AUTOMATIC and weather conditions require heat, air will besent to the floor. However, if the engine is not warm enough to provideheat, the fan will be at a low speed and the air will be directed to thewindshield. In 312 minutes or less, the fan speed will start to increaseand the airflow location will change to the floor area.

If unusual conditions exist (i.e.-window fogging, etc.), the manualoverride controls allow you to select airflow locations and the fan controlallows you to adjust fan speed as necessary.

Temperature selection

The display window indicates theselected temperature, function(AUTO or one of the overridecontrols) and manual control of fanspeed ( ) if automatic fan speed is not desired.

Manual override controls

The override controls are located atthe bottom of the EATC and allow

you to determine where airflow is

directed. To return to full automaticcontrol, press AUTOMATIC.

The air conditioning compressor can operate in all modes except FLOORand VENT. It will also operate only when required when AUTOMATIChas been selected. However, the air conditioning will only function if theoutside temperature is about 10C (50F) or higher.

Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the airduring operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground underthe air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you

have stopped the vehicle.

Under normal conditions, your vehicles climate control system should beleft in any position other than MAX A/C or OFF when the vehicle isparked. This allows the vehicle to breathe through the outside air inletduct.

FLOOR-Allows for maximum heating by distributing outside airthrough the floor ducts. However, the air cannot be cooled below theoutside temperature because the air conditioning does not operate inthis mode.

FLRDEF-Distributes outside air through the windshield defrosterducts and the floor ducts. Heating and air conditioning capabilities areprovided in this mode. The air will be heated or cooled based on thetemperature selection. For added customer comfort, the airdistributed through the floor ducts will be slightly warmer than the air

sent to the windshield defroster ducts. If the temperature is about10C (50F) or higher, the air conditioner will automaticallydehumidify the air to reduce fogging.

DEF -Distributes outside air through the windshield defrosterducts. It can be used to clear ice or fog from the windshield. If theoutside air temperature is about 10C (50F) or higher, the airconditioner will automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.

Displaying outside temperature

Press OUTSIDE TEMP to displaythe outside air temperature. It willbe displayed until OUTSIDE TEMPis pressed again.

If the selected temperature is changed while the outside temperature isdisplayed, the new temperature will be displayed for four seconds after itis changed, then the outside temperature will return to the window.

If a manual override function is selected while the outside temperature isdisplayed, the new function will be displayed for four seconds after it ischanged, then the outside temperature will return to the window alongwith the override selection.

The outside temperature reading is most accurate when the vehicle ismoving. Higher readings may be obtained when the vehicle is not

moving. The readings that you get may not agree with temperaturesgiven on the radio due to differences in vehicle and station locations.

Operating tips

In humid weather, select DEF before driving. This will reducefogging on your windshield. After a few minutes, select any desiredposition.

To prevent humidity buildup inside the vehicle, dont drive with theclimate control system in the OFF position.

Dont put objects under the front seat that will interfere with theairflow to the back seats.

ONLY use the magazine supplied with the CD changer, other types willdamage the unit.

Keep the CD changer door closed. Coins and foreign objects will damagethe CD player and void your audio system warranty.

Do not insert any promotional (odd shaped or sized) discs, ordiscs with removable labels into the CD changer as that jammingmay occur.

Troubleshooting the CD changer (if equipped)

The laser beam used in the compact disc player is harmful to theeyes. Do not attempt to disassemble the case.

If sound skips:

You may be traveling on a rough road, playing badly scratched discs orthe disc may be dirty. Skipping will not scratch the discs or damagethe player.

If your changer does not work, it may be that:

A disc is already loaded where you want to insert a disc. The disc is inserted with the label surface downward.

The disc is dusty or defective.

The players internal temperature is above 60C (140F). Allow theplayer to cool down before operating.

A disc with format and dimensions not within industry standards isinserted.

Cleaning compact discsInspect all discs for contamination before playing. If necessary, cleandiscs only with an approved CD cleaner and wipe from the center out tothe edge. Do not use circular motion.

CD and CD changer care

Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface.

Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extendedperiods of time.

Do not insert more than one disc into each slot of the CD changermagazine.

Cleaning cassette player (if equipped)

Clean the tape player head with a cassette cleaning cartridge after 10 to12 hours of play in order to maintain the best sound and operation.

Cassette and cassette player care

Use only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or less.

Do not expose tapes to direct sunlight, high humidity, extreme heat orextreme cold. Allow tapes that may have been exposed to extreme

temperatures to reach a moderate temperature before playing.

Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a finger or pencil into the holeand turning the hub.

Remove loose labels before inserting tapes.

Do not leave tapes in the cassette player for a long time when notbeing played.

Radio frequency information

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radioand Telecommunications Commission(CRTC) establish the frequencies AMand FM stations may use for their broadcasts. Allowable frequencies are:

AM 530, 5401600, 1610 kHz

FM 87.7, 87.9107.7, 107.9 MHz

Not all frequencies are used in a given area.

Radio reception factors

Three factors can affect radio reception:

Distance/strength. The further an FM signal travels, the weaker it is.The listenable range of the average FM station is approximately 40 km(24 miles). This range can be affected by signal modulation. Signalmodulation is a process radio stations use to increase theirstrength/volume relative to other stations.

Terrain. Hills, mountains and tall buildings between your vehiclesantenna and the radio station signal can cause FM reception problems.Static can be caused on AM stations by power lines, electric fences,traffic lights and thunderstorms. Moving away from an interfering

structure (out of its shadow) returns your reception to normal.


62

7/30/2019 00croog1e

63/224

Station overload. Weak signals are sometimes captured by strongersignals when you pass a broadcast tower. A stronger signal may

temporarily overtake a weaker signal and play while the weak stationfrequency is displayed.

The audio system automatically switches to single channel reception if itwill improve the reception of a station normally received in stereo.

Audio system warranties and service

Refer to the Warranty Guide for audio system warranty information.

If service is necessary, see your dealer or a qualified technician.

TURN SIGNAL CONTROL

Push down to activate the leftturn signal.

HOMELINK UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (IF EQUIPPED)

The HomeLink Universal Transceiver, located on the drivers visor,provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held transmitterswith a single built-in device. This feature will learn the radio frequencycodes of most current transmitters to operate garage doors, entry gates,security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.

When programming your HomeLink Universal Transceiver, to agarage door or gate be sure that people and objects are out of

the way to prevent potential harm or damage.

Do not use the HomeLink Universal Transceiver with any garage dooropener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S.federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener modelmanufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot detectan object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet currentU.S. federal safety standards.

AUTOMATIC DIMMING INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR (IF EQUIPPED)

Your vehicle is equipped with an inside rear view mirror which has anauto-dimming function. The electronic day/night mirror will change fromthe normal state to the non-glare state when bright lights (glare) reachthe mirror. When the mirror detects bright light from front or behind, itwill automatically adjust (darken) to minimize glare.

Do not block the sensor on the backside of the mirror since this mayimpair proper mirror performance.

Press the control to turn the mirroron or off.

The mirror will automatically returnto the normal state whenever the

vehicle is placed in R(Reverse)(when the mirror is on) toensure a bright clear view whenbacking up.

ELECTRONIC COMPASS (IF EQUIPPED)

The compass reading will remain accurate during most driving

conditions. Unknown to the driver, the compass is continuouslyrecalibrating due to magnetic fields and subtle, slow changes in vehiclemagnetics which can occur over the life of the vehicle.

The compass reading will remain fixed when significant levels areexperienced (such as steel bridges). The compass will return to normaloperation upon leaving the magnetized area.

If highly magnetized items (such as magnetic mount antennas) areplaced very near the compass the display will change to C for 15seconds, then display all segments until the magnetized item is removed.

If a C is displayed, refer to Compass calibration adjustment.Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that

varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is fourdegrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the

vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate thiserror. Refer to Compass zone adjustment.
