Automatic Operation
AUTO9(Automatic Fan): When this position is
selected on the fan control, the system adjusts the fan
speed. To use automatic operation:
1. Turn the fan control to the AUTO position.
2. Turn the air delivery mode to the AUTO position.
3. Adjust the temperature to a comfortable setting between 21°C (68°F) and 26°C (78°F).
Choosing the coldest or warmest temperature
setting will not cause the system to heat or cool
any faster. In cold weather, the system will start
at reduced fan speeds to avoid blowing cold air
into the vehicle until warmer air is available. The
system starts out blowing air at the floor but may
change modes automatically as the vehicle warms
up to maintain the chosen temperature setting. The
length of time needed to warm the interior depends
on the outside temperature and temperature of the
vehicle.
4. Wait 20 to 30 minutes for the system to stabilize in order for the system to regulate automatically.
Then adjust the temperature as necessary to find
your comfort setting.
Do not cover the solar sensor located in the center of
the instrument panel near the windshield. For more
information on the solar sensor, see “Sensors”later in
this section.
After the vehicle is started, the display shows the
interior temperature settings and the outside
temperature.

Air Delivery Mode Control:Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to change the current airflow mode.
Select one of the following:
AUTO: Turns on the automatic delivery mode
operation.
F (Vent): Air is directed to the instrument panel outlets.
* (Bi-Level): Air is divided between the instrument
panel and the floor outlets. In automatic operation,
cooler air is directed to the upper outlets and warmer air
to the floor outlets.
7 (Floor): Air is directed to the floor outlets with
some air directed to the side window outlets and the
windshield.
If recirculation is selected, it only stays on for
three minutes to reduce windshield fogging.
W(Floor/Defog): This mode clears the windows of
fog or moisture. Air is directed to the floor outlets,
with some air going to the side window outlets and
windshield. When selected, the system turns off
recirculation and runs the air conditioning compressor
unless the outside temperature is at or below freezing.
The recirculation mode cannot be selected while in the
floor/defog mode.
0(Defrost): This mode clears the windshield of fog
or frost more quickly. Air is directed to the windshield
and side window outlets. When selected, the system
automatically turns off recirculation and runs the
air conditioning compressor, unless the outside
temperature is at or below freezing. Recirculation
cannot be selected while in the defrost mode. Do not
drive the vehicle until all the windows are clear.
For professional vehicles, air will be allowed to flow
through the rear outlets. For quicker defrost, press the
AUX button on the front climate control system so that
the light is not lit.
#(Air Conditioning): Press to turn the air
conditioning system on or off and override the
automatic system. When in AUTO, the air conditioning
compressor comes on automatically, as necessary.
To avoid window fogging on rainy and humid days at
temperatures above freezing, run the air conditioning.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from
the air, so a small amount of water may drip under the
vehicle while idling or after turning off the engine. This
is normal.

vehicle. It can be used to prevent outside air and odors
from entering the vehicle. This mode cannot be selected
while in the defog or defrost modes. If you try to select
the recirculation mode, the indicator light flashes
three times and turns off.
Operation in this mode during periods of high humidity
and cool outside temperatures may result in increased
window fogging. If window fogging is experienced,
select the defrost mode.
AUX: For vehicles with a rear climate control system,
press to turn the rear climate control fan on for
automatic operation. After the AUX button is pressed,
the indicator light comes on. Press the button again to
turn the auxiliary fan off. See Rear Climate Control
System on page 4‑40. PASS (Passenger Climate Control):

passenger climate control systems on or off. When the
passenger climate control system is on, the passenger
temperature setting is displayed. The temperature
selected by the front passenger also controls the rear
system air temperature unless the rear seat passengers
select their own comfort setting.
If the PASS button is pressed to turn the passenger
temperature setting off, the driver's temperature knob
will control the temperature for the entire vehicle.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window.
<(Rear Defogger): Press to turn the rear window
defogger on or off. Be sure to clear as much snow from
the rear window as possible. The rear window defogger
will turn off approximately 20 minutes after the button
is pressed if the vehicle is moving at slower vehicle
speeds. At higher vehicle speeds, the rear defogger
may stay on continuously. Each additional press will run
the defogger for approximately 10 minutes.
