MOBILE PHONES
Under certain conditions, the mobile
phone being on in your vehicle can
cause erratic or noisy performance
from your radio. This condition may
be lessened or eliminated by relocat-
ing the mobile phone antenna. This
condition is not harmful to the radio.
If your radio performance does not
satisfactorily “clear” by the reposi-
tioning of the antenna, it is recom-
mended that the radio volume be
turned down or off during mobile
phone operation.

CLIMATE CONTROL
FUNCTIONS
A/C (Air Conditioning)
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button
allows the operator to manually acti-
vate or deactivate the air conditioning
system. When the air conditioning
system is turned on, cool dehumidi-
fied air will flow through the outlets into the cabin. For improved fuel
economy, press the A/C button to turn
off the air conditioning and manually
adjust the blower and airflow mode
settings.
NOTE:
 If fog or mist appears on the
windshield or side glass, select
Defrost mode and increase
blower speed.
 If your air conditioning perfor- mance seems lower than ex-
pected, check the front of the
A/C condenser (located in front
of the radiator), for an accumu-
lation of dirt or insects. Clean
with a gentle water spray from
behind the radiator and through
the condenser. Fabric front fas-
cia protectors may reduce air-
flow to the condenser, reducing
air conditioning performance.
Recirculation When outside air contains
smoke, odors, or high hu-
midity, or if rapid cooling is
desired, you may wish to
recirculate interior air by pressing the
183

Recirculation control button. The re-
circulation indicator will illuminate
when this button is selected. Push the
button a second time to turn off the
Recirculation mode and allow outside
air into the vehicle.
NOTE:
In cold weather, use of Recircula-
tion mode may lead to excessive
window fogging. On systems with
Manual Climate Controls, the Re-
circulation mode is not allowed in
Defrost mode to improve window
clearing operation. Recirculation
will be disabled automatically if
this mode is selected. Attempting
to use Recirculation while in this
mode will cause the LED in the
control button to blink and then
turn off.
AUTOMATIC
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
(ATC)
ATC Hard-keys are located in the cen-
ter of the instrument panel.
Soft-keys are accessible on the
Uconnect Touch™ system screen.Automatic Operation
1. Press the AUTO hard-key or soft-
key button (9) on the Automatic Tem-
perature Control (ATC) Panel.
2. Next, adjust the temperature you
would like the system to maintain by
adjusting the driver and passenger
temperature hard or soft control but-
tons (6, 7, 10, 11). Once the desired
temperature is displayed, the system
will achieve and automatically main-
tain that comfort level.
3. When the system is set up for your
comfort level, it is not necessary to
change the settings. You will experi-
ence the greatest efficiency by simply
allowing the system to function auto-
matically.
NOTE:
 It is not necessary to move the
temperature settings for cold or
hot vehicles. The system auto-
matically adjusts the tempera-
ture, mode and blower speed to
provide comfort as quickly as
possible.
 The temperature can be dis- played in U.S. or Metric units by selecting the US/M customer-
programmable feature. Refer to
the “Uconnect Touch™ System
Settings” in this section of the
manual.
To provide you with maximum com-
fort in the Automatic mode, during
cold start-ups the blower fan will re-
main on low until the engine warms
up. The blower will increase in speed
and transition into Auto mode.
Manual Operation
The system allows for manual selec-
tion of blower speed, air distribution
mode, A/C status and recirculation
control.
The blower fan speed can be set to any
fixed speed by adjusting the blower
control. The fan will now operate at a
fixed speed until additional speeds are
selected. This allows the front occu-
pants to control the volume of air
circulated in the vehicle and cancel
the Auto mode.
The operator can also select the direc-
tion of the airflow by selecting one of
the available mode settings. A/C op-
