CONTROL

Note: You can switch temperature units
between Fahrenheit and Celsius. See
Settings (page 347).

E144494

AUTO: Press the button to turn on fully automatic operation. Select the desired
temperature using the temperature control. The system automatically adjusts
fan speed, air distribution, A/C operation, and outside or recirculated air, to heat
or cool the vehicle to maintain the selected temperature.

A

CLIMATE: Press to turn the climate control system on and off. When the system
is off, outside air is prevented from entering the vehicle.

B

MAX A/C: Turn the temperature control dial all the way past the full cool
position. Recirculated air is distributed through the instrument panel air vents,
air conditioning is automatically turned on, the fan speed is automatically
adjusted to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns to the full cool
position. This re-cooling of the interior air is more economical and efficient.

C

A/C: Press the button to turn air conditioning on or off. To improve air
conditioning when starting your vehicle, drive with the windows slightly open
for two to three minutes. Use A/C with recirculated air to improve cooling
performance and efficiency.

D

Recirculated air: Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When recirculated air is selected, the air currently in the
passenger compartment recirculates. This may reduce the time needed to cool
the interior (when used with A/C) and may also reduce unwanted odors from
entering your vehicle. Recirculated air may turn off automatically in all airflow
modes except MAX A/C to reduce the possibility of fogging.
