bi-level modes, but it cannot be used with floor,
defog, defrost or outside air modes.

passenger’s temperature levers to increase or
decrease the air temperature inside your vehicle.

You may notice a slight change in engine
performance when the air-conditioning compressor
shuts off and turns on again. This is normal.
The system is designed to make adjustments to
help with fuel economy while still maintaining
the selected temperature.
