Driver's Side Temperature Button
The red and blue temperature buttons adjust the air
temperature coming through the system. Press the blue
button for a cooler setting or the red button for a
warmer setting.
Passenger's Side Temperature Knob
With this feature, the right front passenger can control
the temperature of air for his/her own zone. The
passenger can select a four degree warmer or cooler
temperature from the driver's setting.
To turn the system on, press the knob on the passenger's
side armrest. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the
temperature and counterclockwise to decrease the
temperature. Press the knob again to turn the system off.
Outside Temperature Display
The outside temperature is always displayed when your
vehicle is running. You can change it from Fahrenheit to
Celsius by pressing the ENG/MET (English/metric)
button on the Driver Information Center (DIC).The outside temperature sensor is located near the front
grille. The sensor can be affected by road or engine heat
during idling, slow driving or when the engine is first
started after a short trip. In order to ensure proper
automatic climate control operation, the outside air
temperature display may not update as quickly as
expected. This is to allow the air surrounding the outside
temperature sensor to be as close to the actual outside
conditions as possible. This is determined by how much
time has elapsed since the vehicle has been turned off and
by vehicle speed.
Mode Controls
The AUTO/ECON button automatically controls the
direction of air delivery for air conditioning and non
-air
conditioning modes.
Automatic Operation
When the system is set for automatic operation, sensors
will control the air delivery mode. Air will come from
the floor, middle or windshield outlets. The fan speed
will vary as the system maintains the selected
temperature setting.
Be careful not to put anything over the solar sensor
located in the middle of the instrument panel near the
windshield. This sensor is used by the automatic system
to regulate temperature.
