MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROL (If Equipped)
Power: Press the button to turn the system on and off. Switching off the climate
control system prevents outside air from entering the vehicle.
A
Defrost: Press the button to distribute air to the windshield vents and de-mister.
Air distribution to instrument panel and footwell vents turn off. You can use
this setting to defog and clear the windshield of a thin covering of ice.
B
Heated rear window:
Turns the heated rear window on and off. See Heated
Windows and Mirrors (page 106).
C
MAX A/C:
Turn the temperature control dial all the way past the full cool
position to maximize cooling. Recirculated air flows through the instrument
panel vents, air conditioning automatically turns on, the fan automatically
adjusts to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns to the full cool
position.
D
Temperature control:
Controls the temperature of the airflow in your vehicle.
Adjust to select the desired temperature.
E
MAX Defrost:
Turn the temperature control dial all the way past the full heat
position to maximize defrosting. Outside air flows through the windshield vents,
fan automatically adjusts to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns
to the full heat position. You can use this setting to defog or clear a thin covering
of ice from the windshield. The heated rear window also automatically turns
on when you select MAX Defrost.
F
Note:
To prevent window fogging, you cannot select recirculated air when MAX
Defrost is on.

Note:
Do not clean the housing or glass of
any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum-based cleaning products.
The 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: 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.
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 414).
For additional cabin air filter information,
or to replace the filter, see an authorized
dealer.
REMOTE START
(If Equipped)
The remote start feature allows you to
pre-condition the interior of your vehicle.
The climate control system works to
achieve comfort according to your previous
settings. Note:
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 normally, but 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 default remote start
settings using the information display
controls. See
Information Displays
(page 83).
Automatic Settings
In hot weather, the system is set to 72°F
(22°C). The 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 seats do not
automatically turn on.
In cold weather, the system is set to 72°F
(22°C). The heated seats are set to high
(if available, and selected to AUTO in the
information display). The rear defroster
and heated mirrors automatically turn on.

Note:
A preset memory position can only
be recalled when the ignition is off, or when
the transmission is in park (P) or neutral (N)
if the ignition is on.
You can also recall a preset memory
position by:
• Pressing the unlock button on your
intelligent access key fob if it is linked
to a preset position.
• Unlocking the intelligent driver door
handle if a linked key fob is present.
• Entering a personal entry code on the
Securicode keypad. See Locks (page
56).
Note: Using a linked key fob to recall your
memory position when the ignition is off will
move the seat to the Easy Entry position.
Note: Pressing any seat or mirror
adjustment control (or any memory button)
during a memory recall cancels the
operation.
Seat recall movement will also stop if you
drive your vehicle.
Linking a PreSet Position to your
Remote Control or Intelligent
Access Key Fob
Your vehicle can save the preset memory
positions for up to three remote controls
or intelligent access (IA) keys.
1. With the ignition on, move the memory
positions to the desired positions.
2. Press and hold the desired preset button for about five seconds. A tone
will sound after about two seconds.
Continue holding until a second tone
is heard.
3. Within three seconds, press the lock button on the remote control you are
linking.
To unlink a remote control, follow the
same procedure – except in step 3, press
the unlock button on the remote control. Note:
If more than one linked remote
control or intelligent access key is in range,
the memory function will move to the
settings of the first key stored.
Easy Entry and Exit Feature
If you enable the easy entry and exit
feature, it automatically moves the driver
seat position rearward up to two inches
(five centimeters) when you switch the
ignition off.
The driver seat will return to the previous
position when you switch the ignition on.
You can enable or disable this feature in
the information display. See Information
Displays
(page 83).
REAR SEATS
Note: Your vehicle may have split
seatbacks that you must fold individually. Use the seatback release to fold the back
of the front seat forward for rear seat
access. This release handle is located on
the upper back of the front seat. The
seatback has memory and locks
automatically in the original position.

Touch DUAL to switch separate passenger side temperature controls off and
on. When you switch off DUAL, the passenger side temperature changes to
match the driver side temperature.
Note:
The passenger side temperature and the DUAL indicator automatically
turn on when the passenger is adjusting their temperature control.
Fan speed:
Touch + or - to increase or decrease the volume of air circulated
in your vehicle.
C
Note:
When the system is controlling the fan speed automatically, all the fan
speed indicators turn off.
Recirculated air:
Touch the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, 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.
D
Note:
Recirculated air may turn off automatically (or be prevented from turning
on) in all airflow modes except MAX A/C to reduce risk of fogging. Recirculated
air may also turn on and off automatically in Panel or Panel and Floor airflow
modes during hot weather in order to improve cooling efficiency.
MAX A/C: Touch the button to maximize cooling. Recirculated air flows through
the instrument panel vents, air conditioning automatically turns on, and the fan
automatically adjusts to the highest speed.
E
A/C:
Touch the button to switch air conditioning compressor on or off. Use air
conditioning with recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency.
F
Note:
In certain conditions (such as when using Max Defrost), the air
conditioning compressor may continue to operate even after you switch off the
air conditioning with the
A/C button.
AUTO:
Touch the button to switch on automatic operation. Select the desired
temperature using the temperature control. The system adjusts fan speed, air
distribution, air conditioning operation, and selects outside air or recirculated
air to heat or cool the vehicle in order to maintain the desired temperature. You
can also use the
AUTO button to switch off dual zone operation by touching
and holding the button for more than two seconds.
G
Heated rear window:
Switches the heated rear window on and off. See
Heated Windows and Mirrors (page 106).
H
MAX Defrost:
Touch the button to maximize defrosting. Outside air flows
through the windshield vents, fan automatically adjusts to the highest speed
and the temperature dial returns to the full heat position. You can use this
setting to defog or clear a thin covering of ice from the windshield. The heated
rear window also automatically turns on when you select MAX Defrost.
I
Note:
To prevent window fogging, you cannot select recirculated air when MAX
Defrost is on.
