8-4 Climate Controls
If equipped with a power convertible
top, the rear window defogger and
heated mirrors are automatically
disabled when the power convertible
top is moving or down.
{Caution
Using a razor blade or sharp
object on the inside rear window
can damage the antenna or
defogger. Repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Do not stick anything to the rear
window.
z/{(Driver and Passenger
Heated and Ventilated Seats, If
Equipped): Press to heat or
ventilate the seat. See Heated and
Ventilated Front Seats on page 3-6.
Remote Start Climate Control
Operation (If Equipped): If remote
start is used to start the vehicle, the
climate control system will come on.
The system uses the driver ’s
previous settings to heat or cool the inside of the vehicle. The rear
window defogger or heated outside
rearview mirrors, if equipped, may
come on based on cold ambient
conditions. The rear defog indicator
light may not come on during a
remote start. The heated or
ventilated seats may turn on if it is
cold or hot outside. See
Remote
Vehicle Start on page 2-9
andHeated and Ventilated Front
Seats on page 3-6 (if equipped).
Sensors
The interior cabin air temperature
and solar sensor on top of the
instrument panel near the
windshield monitors the solar heat
and measures the initial interior
cabin temperature.
The climate control system uses the
sensor information to adjust the
temperature, fan speed,
recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort. The humidity and windshield
temperature sensor is on the
windshield glass inside surface near
the rearview mirror. The automatic
climate control system uses this
sensor to receive information to
determine the need for defogging.
If any of these sensors are blocked
or covered, the automatic climate
control system may not work
properly.
There is also a sensor behind the
front bumper. This sensor reads the
outside air temperature and helps to
maintain the temperature inside the
vehicle. Any cover on the front of
the vehicle could give a false
reading in the temperature.
