The automatic climate control
system in your vehicle picks the
proper combination of air
conditioning, heating, and ventilation
to maintain the interior temperature
you select. The system also adjusts
the fan speed and airflow levels.Press the Auto button on the front
control panel. You will see AUTO
in the system display.
Adjust the temperature for the
driver’s and passenger’s side
separately, using the desired
temperature control dial.
The passenger’s side temperature
setting does not synchronize to the
driver’s side at any time except when
the system is in the defroster mode
(see page ). The system automatically selects the
proper mix of conditioned and/or
heated air that will, as quickly as
possible, raise or lower the interior
temperature to your pref erence.
When you set either side
temperature to its lower limit
( ) or its upper limit ( ),
the system runs at f ull cooling or
heating only. It does not regulate the
interior temperature.
When you press a f an control button,
the fan is taken out of AUTO mode.
The driver’s and passenger’s side
temperatures should always be set
separately. Turn the desired dial
clockwisetoincreasetheairflow
temperature of that side, and
