If your vehicle is sitting in direct sunlight on a hot day
and you have the climate control system in AUTO, the
air will first flow out the floor ducts for a few seconds.
This is normal. This removes hot air from the air outlets.
As the air is cooled, the airflow will enter the vehicle
through the instrument panel outlets.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system
will start at a reduced fan speed until warm air is
available. The length time required for this to happen
depends on the outside air temperature, engine coolant
temperature or the time since the engine was last started.
As the coolant warms up, the fan speed will gradually
increase and air will flow from the floor ducts, with
some airflow to the windshield to prevent fogging under
most normal conditions. If you select defrost mode or a
fan speed manually, this function will be canceled.
If you leave your vehicle, the system will remember
the control setting the next time you start your engine,
except for recirculation and defrost. Each ignition cycle
cancels recirculation. Defrost will change to automatic
operation when the ignition is shut off and then turned
back on.Electronic Solar Sensor
The sensor monitors the sun's solar radiation and is located
near the end of the instrument panel near the windshield.
The climate control panel uses this information to
automatically make the necessary temperature and
airflow adjustments to maintain your comfort. The
climate control system may supply cooler air to one side
of your vehicle, if that side is facing the sun.
Be sure not to put anything over the electronic solar
sensor. If you do, the climate control system may not
function properly.
3-10 HVAC Steering Wheel Controls
(If Equipped)
Some heating and cooling
controls can be adjusted at

the control to increase the temperature and the down
arrow to decrease temperature.

Climate Control Personalization
(If Equipped)
This feature allows two different drivers to store and
recall their own climate control settings. These settings
include the set temperatures for the driver and front
passenger, the air conditioning, the mode and the
fan speed. (This feature does not recall recirculation
or defrost).
Each driver (1 or 2) has a corresponding number located
on the back of the remote keyless entry transmitter.
Settings recalled by the system are determined by which
transmitter is used to unlock the vehicle. After the
button with the unlock symbol is pressed, the settings
are automatically recalled.
The settings can also be recalled when the key is placed
in the ignition. If the settings are recalled this way, the
system will recall the settings of the last driver. If these
are not the correct settings, you must press the button
with the unlock symbol on remote keyless entry
transmitter that was used when you saved your settings.

The settings can be changed by briefly pressing the
corresponding memory button (1 or 2) located on the
driver's door panel.
Further programming for recalling climate control
personalization settings can be done using the DIC.
You can select or not select the following:
Automatic recall of the climate control settings when
the vehicle is unlocked with the remote keyless entry
transmitter, or
Automatic recall of the climate control settings when
a key is placed in the ignition.For programming information, see ªVehicle
Programming and Personalization Featuresº in
the Index.
Your vehicle is equipped with a dual
-zone electronic
climate control system. This system can automatically
adjust and control temperature, fan speed, air delivery
mode, air conditioning operation and air intake. You can
use the AUTO (automatic) setting or override the
automatic operation by manually altering the controls.
