In cold weather, the system will delay turning on the fan
to avoid blowing cold air. The length of the delay
depends on the engine coolant temperature and the
outside temperature. Turning the AUTO FAN knob will
override this delay by turning off the automatic fan
mode and changing the fan speed.
Your automatic electronic climate control system has
two sun sensors located on the top of the instrument
panel that detect direct sunlight. To keep you and your
passengers comfortable, the system may supply cooler
air to the side toward the sun. Be careful not to put
anything over these sun sensors. The automatic
electronic climate control system may not operate
correctly if these sensors are covered.
To change the automatic electronic climate control
display from an English display to a metric display, push
the OFF button located in the Driver Information Center
(DIC) for two seconds. The display in the DIC will also
change from an English to a metric display. To return to
an English display, repeat the above procedure.
Manual Operation

turning the AUTO
- PUSH knob. After you turn this
knob, the comfort setting will be displayed for five
seconds, then the outside temperature will be displayed.
The fan control will remain in the automatic control
mode unless you turn the AUTO FAN knob to select a
manual fan speed.
