the temperature on the driver side of the vehicle. If the passenger
temperature controls are not activated (dual zone), the driver’s settings

The MyTemp feature can be used to store and recall a preset driver’s

adjusted to a frequently used setting with a single button touch.
To save a new preset temperature for the active user, manually adjust
the driver’s temperature to the desired value then touch and hold the
MyTemp button for at least two seconds. Any subsequent touch of the
MyTemp button will automatically change to this set temperature for this
user.
The preset temperature can be saved for each user via a personal
computer and transferred to the vehicle via a USB device. Refer to
Creating a user profile in the Entertainment Systems chapter for
more information.

Operating tips
• To reduce fog build-up on the windshield during humid weather,

select

(defrost).

• To reduce humidity build-up inside the vehicle: do not drive with the

system off or with recirculated air engaged.

• Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the

airflow to the back seats.

• Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of

the windshield.

• To improve the A/C cool down, drive with the windows slightly open

for 2–3 minutes after starting the vehicle or until the vehicle has
“aired out.”

• A small amount of air may be felt from the floor vent regardless of the

air distribution setting that is selected.

During extreme high ambient temperatures when idling stationary for
extended periods of time in gear, it is recommended to run the A/C in
MAX A/C, reduce blower fan speed from the highest setting and put the
vehicle’s transmission in P (Park) to continue to receive cool air from
your A/C system.

For maximum cooling performance (MAX A/C):

1. Press MAX A/C. The system will default to single-zone operation and
set the temperature to 60°F (16°C).
