Climate Controls
Dual Climate Control System
With this system you can control the heating,
cooling, and ventilation for the vehicle.
Automatic Operation
AUTO (Automatic):When this button is pressed
and the temperature is set, the system will
automatically control the inside temperature, the air
delivery mode, the air conditioning compressor, and
the fan speed. AUTO will appear on the display.
1. Press the AUTO button.
2. Adjust the temperature to a comfortable
setting between 70°F (21°C) and 80°F (27°C).Choosing the coldest or warmest temperature
setting will not cause the system to heat or cool
any faster. If you set the system at the warmest
temperature setting, the system will remain in
manual mode at that temperature and it will not
go into automatic mode.
In cold weather, the system will start at
reduced fan speeds to avoid blowing cold air
into your vehicle until warmer air is available.
The system will start out blowing air at
the oor but may change modes automatically
as the vehicle warms up to maintain the
chosen temperature setting. The length of time
needed for warm up will depend on the
outside temperature and the length of time
that has elapsed since your vehicle was
last driven.
3. Wait for the system to regulate. This may take
from 10 to 30 minutes. Then adjust the
temperature, if necessary.
You can switch from English to metric units through
the Driver Information Center (DIC). If you have the
Base audio system, seeDIC Main Menu on
page 228. If you have the Navigation system, see
“Setup Menu” in the Index of the Navigation System
Owner Manual.
