PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Outside Air
Keep the air intakes in front of the
windshield free from obstruction (such as
snow or leaves) to allow the climate
control system to function effectively.
Recirculated Air
WARNING
Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to mist up. If the
windows mist up, follow the settings
for demisting the windshield. The air currently in the passenger
compartment recirculates. Outside air does
not enter your vehicle.
Heating
Heating performance depends on the
temperature of the engine coolant.
Air Conditioning
Note:
The air conditioning operates only
when the temperature is above 39°F (4°C).
Note: When you use air conditioning, your
vehicle uses more fuel.
The system directs air through the
evaporator for cooling. The evaporator
extracts humidity from the air to help keep
the windows free of mist. The system
directs the resulting condensation to the
outside of your vehicle, which may cause
a small pool to form under your vehicle.
This is normal.
General Information on Controlling
the Interior Climate
Fully close all the windows. Warming the Interior
Direct the air toward your feet. In cold or
humid weather conditions, direct some of
the air toward the windshield and the door
windows.
Cooling the Interior
Direct the air toward your face.

Manual Climate Control
Note:
To reduce fogging of the windshield
during humid weather, adjust the air
distribution control to the windshield air
vents position. Increase the temperature
and fan speed to improve clearing, if
required.
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 air stream is directed
toward the windshield and side windows
for as long as the engine remains cold. Note:
When the system is switched off,
outside air is prevented from entering your
vehicle.
Note: When you select
AUTO mode and
the interior and exterior temperatures are
high, the system automatically selects
recirculated air to maximize cooling of the
interior. When the desired air temperature
is reached, the system automatically selects
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 Windows
Use the heated windows to defrost or
demist the rear window.
Note: The heated windows operate only
when the engine is running.
Heated Rear Window Heated Exterior Mirrors
Electric exterior mirrors have a heating
element that will defrost or demist the
mirror glass. They will switch on
automatically when you switch the heated
rear window on.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air
filter. It is located behind the center
console.
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:
Make sure you have a cabin air filter
installed at all times. This prevents foreign
objects from entering the system. Running
the system without a filter in place could
result in degradation or damage to the
system.
