AUTOMATIC CLIMATE
CONTROL
Note:
You can switch temperature
units between Fahrenheit and Celsius.
See Settings (page 351). Driver temperature controls:
Press + or - to increase or decrease
the air temperature for the driver side of the vehicle. This control also
adjusts the passenger side temperature when dual zone operation is
disengaged.
A
Fan speed control:
Press on either side of the fan icon to increase or
decrease the volume of air circulated in your vehicle.
B
Passenger temperature controls: Press + or - to increase or decrease
the air temperature for the passenger side of the vehicle.
C
Power:
Press to turn the system on and off. When the system is off,
outside air cannot enter the vehicle.
D
Recirculated air:
Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, the button illuminates
and the air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates. This
may reduce the time needed to cool the interior (when used with A/C)
and may reduce unwanted odors from entering your vehicle.
Recirculated air may turn off automatically in all airflow modes except
MAX A/C to reduce the possibility of fogging.

A/C: Press the button to turn on or turn off the air conditioning system.
To improve air conditioning when starting your vehicle, drive with the
windows slightly open for two to three minutes. Use A/C with
recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency.
F
MAX A/C:
Press the button to switch on. Recirculated air is distributed
through the instrument panel air vents, air conditioning is automatically
adjusted to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns to the
full cool position. This re-cooling of the interior is more economical
and efficient.
G
AUTO:
Press the button to switch on. Recirculated air flows through
the instrument panel air vents, air conditioning automatically adjusts
to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns to the full cool
position. This re-cooling of the interior is more economical and efficient.
H
Heated rear window:
Turns the heated rear window on and off. See
Heated Windows and Mirrors (page 128).
I
Defrost:
Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents and
de-mister vents. You can also use this setting to defog and clear the
windshield of a thin covering of ice.

HINTS ON CONTROLLING
THE INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated
air may cause the windows to fog up.
Note: You may feel a small amount of
air from the footwell air vents
regardless of the air distribution setting.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up
inside your vehicle, do not drive with
the system switched off or with
recirculated air always switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the
front seats as this may interfere with
the airflow to the rear seats. Note:
Remove any snow, ice or leaves
from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
Automatic Climate Control
Note: Do not adjust the settings when
your vehicle interior is extremely hot or
cold. The system automatically adjusts
to the previously stored settings. For
the system to function efficiently, the
instrument panel and side air vents
should be fully open.
Note: At low ambient temperatures
with AUTO selected, the system directs
air toward the windshield and side
windows for as long as the engine
remains cold.
Note: When you switch the system off,
outside air cannot enter your vehicle.
127
Climate Control

Note:
When the system is in AUTO
mode, and the interior and exterior
temperatures are high, the system
automatically selects recirculated air
to maximize cooling of the interior.
When the system reaches the selected
air temperature, it automatically
switches to outside air.
Note: When you select windshield
defrosting and defogging, the
instrument panel and footwell level
functions automatically switch off and
air conditioning switches on. Outside
air flows into your vehicle.

HEATED WINDOWS AND
MIRRORS
Heated Rear Window
Note: You must switch the ignition on
to use this feature.
Press the button to clear the rear
window of thin ice and fog. Press the
button again within 10 minutes to
switch it off. It switches off
automatically after 10 minutes, or
when you switch the ignition off.
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, which your
warranty does not cover.
Heated Exterior Mirror
Note: Do not remove ice from the
mirrors with a scraper or attempt to
readjust the mirror glass if it has frozen
in place. These actions could cause
damage to the glass and mirrors.
Note: Do not clean the housing or
glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum-based cleaning products.

Climate Control

Both heated mirrors remove ice, mist
and fog when you switch on the
heated rear window.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin
air filter. It is located behind the glove
box.
The particulate filtration system
reduces the concentration of airborne
particles such as dust, spores and
pollen in the air supplied to the interior
of your vehicle.
Note:
To prevent foreign objects from
entering the system, make sure the
cabin air is in place at all times.
Running the system without a filter in
place could result in degradation or
damage to the system.
The particulate filtration system gives
you and your passengers the following
benefits:
• It improves your driving comfort by
reducing particle concentration.
• It improves the interior
compartment cleanliness.
• It protects the climate control
components from particle
deposits.
Replace the filter at regular intervals.
See Scheduled Maintenance (page
440).
For additional cabin air filter
information, or to replace the filter,
see an authorized dealer. REMOTE START
The climate control system adjusts
the cabin temperature during remote
start.
You cannot adjust the system during
remote start operation. Turn the
ignition on to return the system to its
previous settings. You can now make
adjustments. You need to turn certain
vehicle-dependent features back on,
such as:
•
heated seats
• cooled seats
• heated steering wheel
• heated mirrors
• heated rear window.
You can adjust the settings using the
information display controls.
See
Information Displays (page 100).
Automatic Settings
You can set the climate control to
operate in AUTO mode through the
information display setting: Remote
Start > Climate Control > Heater-A/C
> Auto. The climate control system
automatically sets the interior
temperature to 72°F (22°C).
In hot weather, the system is set to
72°F (22°C). Cooled seats are set to
high (if available, and selected to
AUTO in the information display).
In moderate weather, the system
either heats or cools (based on
previous settings). The rear defroster,
heated mirrors and heated/cooled
seats do not automatically turn on.
129
Climate Control

In cold weather, the system is set to
72°F (22°C). The heated seats and
heated steering wheel are set to high

defroster and heated mirrors
automatically turn on.
Last Settings
You can set the climate control to
operate using the last climate control
settings through the information
display setting: Remote Start >
Climate Control > Heater
–A/C > Last
Settings. The climate control system
automatically uses the settings last
selected before turning off the vehicle.
Heated and Cooled Devices
The climate control system controls
other heated and cooled devices
inside the vehicle. These devices (if
available and selected to AUTO in the
information displays) may switch on
