COMFORT COMFORT
DUAL ZONE AUTOMATIC
CLIMATE CONTROL
You can use the automatic setting to
set a preferred air temperature inside
your vehicle. The system then adjusts
temperature, fan speed, air distribution,
air conditioning operation and selects
outside air or recirculated air to heat or
cool the vehicle.
Press the AUTO button to set your
desired temperature.
You and your front passenger can
press independent controls to adjust
the air temperature on each side of the
vehicle. Press PASS TEMP or DUAL
(depending on your system) and turn
the control or press + or
� to increase or decrease the air temperature on the
passenger side of the vehicle.
To return to a single temperature, press
DUAL
or hold down the AUTO button
for more than two seconds.
Note: Adjusting the settings when your
vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold is
not necessary. The system automatically
adjusts to heat or cool the cabin to
your selected temperature as quickly
as possible. For the system to function
efficiently, the instrument panel and side
air vents should be fully open.
If you select AUTO during cold outside
temperatures, the system directs airflow
to the windshield and side window vents.
In addition, the fan may run at a slower
speed until the engine warms up.
If you select AUTO during hot outside
temperatures, or when the inside of the
vehicle is hot, the system automatically
uses recirculated air to maximize interior
cooling. When the interior reaches
the selected temperature, the system
automatically switches to using
outside air.
AMBIENT LIGHTING* When activated, ambient lighting
lights footwells and cupholders with a
choice of colors. To access and make
adjustments:
1) Press the Settings icon and then
> Vehicle > Ambient Lighting.
2) Touch the desired color.
3) Use the scroll bar to increase or
decrease the intensity.
To turn the feature on or off, press the
power button.
