Release the control when the lower seatback reaches
the desired level of lumbar support.
Your vehicle may have a memory function which allows
seat settings to be saved and recalled. SeeMemory
Features
on page 2‑6for more information.
Keep in mind that as your seating position changes, as
it may during long trips, so should the position of your
lumbar support. Adjust the seat as needed.
Heated and Cooled Seats
If the front seats have the
heated and cooled seat
feature, the buttons used
to control this feature are
located on the climate
control panel.
{(Cooled Seat): To cool the entire seat, press the
button with the cooled seat symbol. This symbol will appear on the climate control display to
indicate that the feature is on. Press the button to cycle
through the temperature settings of high, medium, and
low and to turn the cooled seat off. Indicator bars next
to the symbol designate the level of cooling selected:
three for high, two for medium, and one for low.
+(Heated Seatback):
To heat only the seatback,
press the button with the heated seatback symbol.
This symbol will appear on the climate control display to
indicate that the feature is on. Press the button to cycle
through the temperature settings of high, medium, and
low and to turn the heated seatback off. Indicator bars
next to the symbol designate the level of heat selected:
three for high, two for medium, and one for low.
z(Heated Seat and Seatback): To heat the entire
seat, press the button with the heated seat and
seatback symbol.
This symbol will appear on the climate control display to

6(Floor):Air is directed to the floor outlets, with some
to the windshield, side window outlets, and second row
floor outlets. In this mode, the system automatically
selects outside air.
-(Defog): This mode clears the windows of fog or
moisture. Air is directed to the windshield, floor outlets,
and side window vents. In this mode, the system
turns off recirculation and runs the air conditioning
compressor unless the outside temperature is close to
freezing. The recirculation mode cannot be selected
while in the defog mode.
0(Defrost): This mode removes fog or frost from
the windshield more quickly. Air is directed to the
windshield and side window vents, with some
directed to the floor vents. In this mode, the system
automatically forces outside air into the vehicle and
runs the air conditioning compressor unless the outside
temperature is close to freezing. The recirculation mode
cannot be selected while in the defrost mode.
The passenger temperature control cannot be activated
while in defrost mode. If the passenger control knob is
pressed, the passenger temperature flashes three times
and will not work. If the passenger control knob is
adjusted, the driver temperature indicator changes.
The passenger temperature will not be displayed. If vent, bi-level, or floor mode is selected again,
the climate control system displays the previous
temperature settings.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows are clear.
#(Air Conditioning):
Press to turn the air
conditioning (A/C) compressor on and off. An indicator
light comes on to show that the air conditioning is on.
Pressing this button when the outside temperature
is too cool for air conditioning will make the air
conditioning indicator flash three times and then turn off
indicating the air conditioning mode is not available.
If the air conditioning is on and the outside temperature
drops below a temperature which is too cool for air
conditioning to be effective, the air conditioning light
turns off to show that the air conditioning mode has
been canceled.
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This helps to reduce the time it takes
for the vehicle to cool down. It also helps the system to
operate more efficiently.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from the
air, so a small amount of water might drip under the
vehicle while idling or after turning off the engine. This
is normal.
