Both heated mirrors remove ice, mist

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
436).
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

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 rear window.
You can adjust the settings using the

In hot weather, the system is set to
72°F (22°C). Cooled seats are set to
high (if available, and selected to

either heats or cools (based on
previous settings). The rear defroster,
heated mirrors and heated/cooled
seats do not automatically turn on.
