Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof in certain open or par-
tially open positions. This is a normal occurrence and can
be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear
windows open, open the front and rear windows to-
gether to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs
with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to
minimize the buffeting or open any window.

MANUAL mode (the set temperatures will flash on the
display). The blower speed is the same in all the zones of
the passenger compartment.
Adjusting The Air Temperature
Rotate the Driver Temperature Control, or the Passenger
Temperature Control, dial clockwise or counter-
clockwise, to adjust the air temperature in the front left
(Driver Temperature Control) or right (Passenger Tem-
perature Control) zone of the passenger compartment.
The set temperatures are shown on the displays.
Push the SYNC button to align the air temperature
between the two zones.
Turn the Passenger Temperature Control knob to return
to the separate management of air temperatures in the
two zones.
Turning the control knobs completely in one direction or
the other activates the#HI#(maximum heating) or#LO#
(maximum cooling) functions respectively.
To deactivate these functions, turn the temperature knob
to the desired temperature.
Air Distribution Selection
By pushing the Mode Control buttons (Defrost/Panel/
Floor buttons), it is possible to set one of the seven
possible air distributions manually by activating one or
more mode buttons:
•Defrost Mode – Air flow to the windshield and front
side window diffusers to defrost them. Use Defrost
mode with maximum temperature settings for best
windshield and side window defrosting. When the
defrost mode is selected, the blower will automatically
default to medium-high.

•Panel Mode – Air flow is distributed between the
footwell diffusers and the central and side instrument
panel vents.
•Floor Mode – Air flow is directed from the front and
rear footwell diffusers.
•Floor and Panel Modes – Air flow is distributed
between the footwell diffusers and the central and side
instrument panel vents.
•Floor and Defrost Modes – Air flow distributed be-
tween footwell diffusers and windshield and front side
window defrosting diffusers. This distribution setting
allows the passenger compartment to be warmed
effectively and prevents the windows from misting.
•Defrost and Panel Modes – Air flow distribution
between windshield defrosting diffusers and side and
central instrument panel vents.
•Defrost, Panel and Floor Modes – Air flow distribution
to all the diffusers.
NOTE:Air always flows from the side instrument panel
diffusers: it is, however, possible to interrupt the air flow
by operating the wheel located near the corresponding
vents.
In AUTO mode, the climate control system automatically
manages air distribution (LEDs on the Mode Control
buttons are off).
When set manually, the air distribution is indicated by
the LEDs on the selected buttons turning on.
In combined function mode, functions are enabled to-
gether with those already set when the relevant button is
pushed. If a button whose function is already active is
pushed, the operation is cancelled and the corresponding
LED turns off.

MAX A/C
MAX A/C sets the system for maximum cooling perfor-
mance.
Rotate the driver temperature control adjust knob
counter-clockwise for MAX A/C. Both driver and pas-
senger temperature displays will show MAX A/C LO.
In MAX A/C, the blower speed and mode position can be
adjusted to desired user settings. Pressing other settings
will cause the MAX A/C operation to switch to the
selected setting and MAX A/C to exit.
Rapid Window Demisting (MAX-Defrost function)
Push the MAX-defrost button to activate (LED on) the
windshield and side window demisting function.
The Climate Control system carries out the following
operations:
•Turns on the air conditioning compressor when envi-
ronmental conditions are suitable.
•Turns air recirculation off.
•Sets fan speed according to the engine coolant tem-
perature.
•Directs air flow to windshield and front side window
diffusers.
•Activates the heated rear window defrost.
•Activates the heated windshield (if equipped).
•Displays the fan speed (Blower Control Indicator LED
illuminated).

NOTE:Before closing the liftgate, make sure to be in
possession of the key because the liftgate will be locked
automatically.
Liftgate Initialization
As a result of a possible disconnection of the battery or
the interruption of the fuse protection, you will need to
#initialize#the opening/closing mechanism of the liftgate
as follows:
1. Close all the doors and the liftgate.
2. Press the LIFTGATE button on the Key Fob with
Remote Control.
3. Press the LIFTGATE button on the Key Fob with
Remote Control a second time.
Cargo Area Features
Cargo Load Floor
The vehicle is equipped with a load floor that can be
adjusted as needed.
Position 1 (Floor Flush):
This position allows you to make the load floor flat for
ease of loading/unloading objects from the cargo area.
This position also makes it possible to use the space
below as another compartment for storing fragile or
smaller objects.
Position 2 (Elevated Position):
When the rear seatbacks and front passenger seat is
folded flat, it will allow for loading objects of long
dimensions. It is recommended to use this position only
during the actual transporting of the objects, then bring
the load floor in position 1.

NOTE:The rear cargo power outlet can be changed to
“battery” powered all the time by switching the power
outlet Integrated Power Module 20A fuse from fuse
location F18 to F30. Refer to “Engine Compartment
Controller” in “In Case Of Emergency” for further infor-
mation.
CAUTION!
Do not connect devices with power higher than 180
Watts (15 Amps) to the socket. Do not damage the
socket by using unsuitable adaptors. If the 180 Watt
(15 Amp) power rating is exceeded the fuse protect-
ing the system will need to be replaced.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•Only devices designed for use in this type of outlet
should be inserted into any 12 Volt outlet.
•Do not touch with wet hands.
•Close the lid when not in use and while driving the
vehicle.
•If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric
shock and failure.

Power Inverter — If Equipped
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt Power Inverter outlet located
on the back of the center console to convert DC current to
AC current. The Power Inverter can power cellular
phones, electronics and other low power devices requir-
ing up to 150 Watts. Certain high-end video game
consoles, such as Playstation®4 and XBox One will
exceed this power limit, as will most power tools.
