On models with navigation systemThe automatic climate control
system in your vehicle picks the
proper combination of air
conditioning, heating, and ventilation
to maintain the interior temperature
you select, and to remove moisture
from the air and make the interior
dry. The system also adjusts the f an
speed and airf low levels.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. The system also
dehumidif ies the interior.
The driver’s side temperature and
the passenger’s side temperature can
be set separately. Push up the switch
of the appropriate temperature
control to increase the temperature
of airflow. Push down the switch to
decrease it. Each set temperature is
showninthedisplay(inthecenter
display on models with navigation
system).
Set the desired temperature with
the temperature control switch.
You can set the driver’s side
temperature and the passenger’s
side temperature separately. Press the Driver’s or Passenger’s
AUTO button. You will see AUTO

When you set the 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 adjust a f an control, the
f an is taken out of AUTO mode.To keep stale air and mustiness
f rom collecting, you should have
the f an running at all times. Keep the system completely of f
f or short periods only.
To turn the system completely of f ,
press the ON/OFF button. Each time you press this button, the
climate control system switches

change a mode, press and release
the appropriate side mode control
button. This will take the mode
control out of AUTO mode.
In AUTO mode, the vehicle’s interior
temperature is independently
regulated f or the driver and f ront
passenger according to each
adjusted temperature. The system
also regulates each temperature
basedontheinformationof thesun
light sensor and the sun’s position which is updated automatically by
the navigation’s global positioning
system (GPS). If one side of the
vehicle is getting too much sun, the
system lowers the temperature only
on that side.
When you press this button, the
indicator in the button comes on, and
the passenger’s side temperature
and mode control is synchronized to
thedriver’ssidesettemperatureand
