Getting to Know Your 2004 Aztek
Compass Calibration (optional)
The vehicle’s compass heading is displayed on the DIC display. In some
instances, the compass may not be fully
calibrated from the factory, resulting in
the letter “C” for calibration displayed on
the DIC. Should this condition occur,
find a large area free from metal objects
and drive in a continuous circle three
times to calibrate the compass. The
compass will subsequently calibrate
itself.
Also note that there is a difference
between magnetic north and geographic
(“true”) north, which is great enough in
some areas of the country to give a
false reading. In this case, manual calibration is required. See Section 3 of the
Owner Manual to manually calibrate the
compass.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Auto Door Lock/Unlock
The DIC (optional) is factory-set to automatically lock all doors when all doors
are closed, the engine is running and
the shift lever is moved out of the PARK
(P) position. All of the doors will also
unlock automatically after the vehicle
has been shifted back into PARK.
Using the DIC MODE and SET buttons,
you can personalize the automatic
lock/unlock to one of several different
settings:
• OFF: When the shift lever is put in
PARK, the doors will not unlock
automatically
• DRIVER: When the shift lever is put
in PARK, only the driver’s door will
unlock automatically
• ALL: When the shift lever is put in
PARK, all doors will unlock
automatically (original factory setting)
If the DRIVER or ALL setting is selected,
you can also choose additional settings:
• PARK: Automatically unlocks the
selected door(s) when the shift lever
is placed into PARK (original factory
setting)
• KEY OUT: Unlocks the door(s) when
the ignition key is removed
Full DIC programming instructions for
this and all other DIC modes are in
Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
The DRL safety feature illuminates the
headlamps at a reduced intensity during
the day to make the front of the vehicle
more visible to others. This feature can
be of particular help in the short periods
just after dawn and shortly before sunset. The DRL illuminates only the headlamps – not the taillamps or side marker
lamps.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
7
Headlamp Controls
The exterior lamps knob is located on
the instrument panel, to the left of the
steering wheel. The AUTO position activates the automatic headlamp system
that illuminates all exterior lamps and
the instrument panel/radio lights when
they are needed. The position manually illuminates the taillamps and the
instrument panel/radio lights. The
position manually activates the
headlamps, all exterior tail/marker lamps
and the instrument panel/radio lights.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Automatic Headlamp System
If the headlamp rotary knob is in the
AUTO position during daytime driving,
it may temporarily switch the headlamp
and interior light systems, including the
radio display, to the nighttime mode.
This occurs when passing through darker conditions, such as under a bridge or
overpass, or inside a parking garage.
The light sensor is located on top of the
instrument panel. To ensure proper system operation, avoid placing objects or
stickers on or near the sensor.
Turning Off the Automatic Headlamps
or Daytime Running Lamps (DRLs)
Turning off your vehicle’s automatic
headlamp system or DRLs requires the
vehicle to be parked. Then, apply the
parking brake before turning on the ignition. This will keep the headlamps from
coming on automatically. However, upon
releasing the parking brake, the automatic headlamp control will resume
operation.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Fog Lamps
The Fog Lamps
button is located
in the center of
the exterior
lamps switch
that controls the
parking lamps
and headlamps.
To activate the
fog lamps, press
the FOG PUSH button. To turn them off,
press the button again or turn off the
ignition. The fog lamps automatically
turn off when you activate the headlamp
high beams, and come back on when
the low beams are turned back on.
Use of high beams in fog is not
recommended.
Note: To use the fog lamps, they must
be turned on each time you start the
vehicle.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.

See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Head-Up Display (HUD)
(optional)
The HUD displays important information
on an image that appears to be focused
toward the front of the vehicle.
“Projecting” the information in this way
permits the driver to remain well
informed without taking his or her eyes
off the road.
Information that can be displayed on the
HUD includes:
• Vehicle speed (constant display)
• Current radio station (for three
seconds after status changes)
• CD number and/or track number or
tape (for three seconds after status
changes)
• Turn signal indicators (when
activated)
• High beam indicator (when activated)
• Low fuel warning message (when
activated)
• Check gauges (when activated)
Should the CHECK GAUGES message
illuminate, the DIC display may show
one of the following:
• Engine Coolant Temperature Warning
Message
9
• Low Oil Pressure Message
• Charging System Indicator Message
• Low Brake Fluid Warning Message
Turn the HUD ON/OFF and adjust
brightness: Turn the HUD OFF by
rotating the uppermost HUD control
rotary dimmer knob counterclockwise
until it clicks off. Turn the HUD on by

elastic strap
stored under the driver-side head
restraint connects with a sliding loop on
the belt. Hook the elastic strap to the
loop, as shown, to lower the routing
of the belt as needed for maximum
comfort.
See Section 1 of your Owner Manual.
15
Automatic Level Control
(optional)
Vehicles equipped with this feature may
make an occasional “whirring” sound
under the rear of the vehicle. Under
heavier rear loads, this noise indicates
that the system air compressor is operating to provide a level ride height, and
is normal.
See Section 4 of your Owner Manual.
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) System
(optional)
AWD-equipped vehicles automatically
transfer power to the rear wheels when
the front wheels begin to slip. No action
by the driver is required. There may be
a slight noise when the system
engages; this is normal.
See Section 4 of your Owner Manual.
Traction Control System (TCS)
(optional)
Vehicles equipped with TCS limit wheelspin. TCS only operates when it senses
that one or both of the front wheels are
beginning to lose traction. When this
happens, the system operates the front
brakes and reduces engine power to
limit wheelspin. It is normal to hear or
feel the system working. TCS is automatically enabled whenever you start
the vehicle. You can disable it if your
vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud or
snow and it is necessary to rock the
vehicle to get it free. To disable TCS,
press the TRAC OFF button located on
the instrument panel switchbank. The
TRAC OFF light then comes on.
Enable the system by pressing the
TRAC OFF button again and the TRAC
OFF light will go out.
See Section 4 of your Owner Manual.

Getting to Know Your 2004 Aztek
Setting Up the Tent (optional)
Note: Before getting started, make
sure your Aztek’s engine and exhaust
has cooled to prevent injury and damage to the tent.
• Open the hatch and lower the tailgate
• Unroll the tent and slip it over the
hatch with the Aztek logo facing
outward
• Install the hatch strut supports to
keep the hatch from inadvertently
closing. Place one support on each
side, starting from the bottom and
working your way up
• Once the tent is supported by the
hatch, cover the bumper with the
fabric at the bottom of the tent
• Locate the two attaching straps at the
leading edge of the tent. Secure
them to the roof rail tie-down ring on
top of the vehicle
• Locate the two attachment points on
the passenger side wheelwell. One is
a hole in the wheelwell, the other is
the edge of the frame. Using these
points, clip on the attached hooks
(repeat procedure on driver’s side)
• Locate and assemble the fiberglass
tent pole to its full length. Ensure
each of the nine segments are firmly
seated at their connection points
• Feed the pole through the nylon
sleeve located above the tent’s zipper
door
17
• Insert the ends of the poles through
the tent’s bottom corner pockets
• Secure hooks at the sides of the tent
to the pole
• To remove slack at the bottom of the
tent, buckle the tent’s cinch straps
(located under the tailgate) and cinch
them tightly
Fuel Economy
A variety of factors can affect your fuel
economy. They include:
• Vehicle maintenance
• Driving technique
• Proper tire pressure
• Vehicle loads
• Roof (luggage) rack use
• Trailering
• Air temperature/density; headwinds
For best fuel economy:
• Drive with the transaxle selector in
AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE (D)
• Use only your right foot to activate
the brake pedal
• Avoid “jackrabbit” starts and maintain
a set speed during steady-state
driving
• Maintain proper tire pressure (check
with every fuel-up)
• Keep the vehicle on the
recommended maintenance schedule
• Load cargo on the roof rack for long
trips only when necessary
• Understand that trailering reduces
fuel economy
