Manual Climate Control Automatic Climate Control
Note: Only cool or cold air (no heat) blows through the rear vents while the front climate
control is on. Heat for the rear passengers comes from under the front seats when the
front heater is on and set to floor mode. When pressing the rear ventilation control switch
on the front control panel (with climate control system on), the rear ventilation system
operates at low speed only. To change to high speed, press the Hi rear vent button.
• Push the AUTO switch. Selection of the airflow mode, air intake
selector and amount of airflow will be automatically controlled.
• Rotate the temperature control dial to select a desired temperature.
• To turn off the system, push the OFF switch.
• Once the auto A/C is switched on, the system will automatically
make all the necessary adjustments. if you make manual
adjustments to the airflow mode, air intake selector, or the airflow
amount, the auto A/C will turn off. The only dial that can be adjusted
while the auto A/C system is on is the temperature control dial.
• To get air flowing through the rear vents, switch on the rear ventilation
control switch located on the front climate control panel, or
switch on either the low or high rear vent button on the rear console.
Note: With any type of defroster operation (even in the FLOOR mode where some
air goes to defrost to keep the windows defrosted), the system turns on the A/C
and selects the FReSH AiR mode. This helps defrost the windows more efficiently
by dehumidifying the air. The A/C will always be on in defroster mode, but the
defroster (and floor) will deliver warm air when the temperature dial is set to a warmer
temperature and the engine warms up.
