and outside or recirculated air, to heat or cool the vehicle in order to
reach the desired temperature.
8.
R(Rear defroster):Touch to activate/deactivate the rear
defroster. This button will also activate/deactivate the heated mirrors (if

reduce window fogging. Touch this button again to return to the previous
air flow selection. To return to full automatic control, touch AUTO.
10.Driver temperature control:Touch to increase (+) or decrease (-)
the temperature on the driver side of the vehicle. If the passenger
temperature controls are not activated (dual zone), the driver’s settings
will determine the temperature setting for the entire vehicle cabin.
MyTemp:Touch and hold to save the desired temperature for MyTemp.
To access this setting again, simply touch the indicator.
The MyTemp feature can be used to store and recall a preset driver’s

The engine must be running to operate the rear window defroster.
Press
Rto turn the rear window defroster on. An indicator light on the
button will illuminate when active. The rear window defroster turns off
automatically after a predetermined amount of time, if a low battery
condition is detected or when the ignition is turned to the off or

Do not use razor blades or other sharp objects to clean the inside
of the rear window or to remove decals from the inside of the
rear window. This may cause damage to the heated grid lines and
will not be covered by your warranty.
REMOTE START CLIMATE OPERATION (IF EQUIPPED)
The climate control system will condition the cabin temperature during
remote start. Engine idle may increase to help with adjusting the cabin
temperature.
Note:No climate control adjustments will be recognized during remote
start operation. Once the ignition is cycled to the on position, the climate
control system will return to the previous settings (last ignition-on cycle)
and adjustments can be made normally. If the previous setting was off,
the climate control system will turn off.
