2. Turn the driver’s side temperature controldial to the left or right to set the desired
temperature. Driver and passenger tem-
peratures can be set independently. Press
DUAL to activate dual climate control func-
tions. Turn the passenger’s side temperature
control dial to the left or right to set the
desired passenger’s temperature.
● Adjust the temperature dial to about 75°F
(24°C) for normal operation.
● The temperature of the passenger compart-
ment will be maintained automatically. Air
flow distribution, fan speed and A/C on/off
are also controlled automatically.
● A visible mist may be seen coming from the
vents in hot, humid conditions as the air is
cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a mal-
function.
Dehumidified defrosting or defogging
1. Press the defroster control buttonto
turn the system on. The display will show the
defrost icon.
2. Turn the temperature dial to the left or right to set the desired temperature.
● To quickly remove ice from the outside of the
windows, press the fan control speed button
until it reaches the maximum speed
. ●
As soon as possible after the windshield is
clean, press the AUTO button to return to
the auto mode.
● When the defroster control button
is
activated, the air conditioner will automati-
cally be turned on at outside temperatures
above 36°F (2°C) . If in defrost mode for
more than 1 minute, the air conditioning
system will continue to operate until the fan
control is turned OFF, the vehicle is shut off,
or the A/C button is pressed even if the air
flow MODE control button is used to select a
position other than the
position. This
dehumidifies the air which helps defog the
windshield. The air recirculation mode auto-
matically turns off, allowing outside air to be
drawn into the passenger compartment to
further improve the defogging performance.
MANUAL OPERATION

OPERATING TIPS
●When the engine coolant temperature and
outside air temperature are low, the air flow
from the foot outlets may not operate for a
maximum of 150 seconds. However, this is
not a malfunction. After the coolant tempera-
ture warms up, air flow from the foot outlets
will operate normally.
The sunload sensor
1, located on the top center
of the instrument panel, helps the system main-
tain a constant temperature. Do not put anything
on or around this sensor.1. Front seat overhead console controls
2. Rear seat overhead console controls
Rear seat temperature and fan speed can be
controlled from both the front seat overhead con-
sole controls or the rear seat overhead console
controls.
Press the REAR CTRL button to transfer control of
the rear climate functions to the rear passengers.
To operate the rear air conditioner, the engine
must be running.
If the rear seat fan control dial is set to (0) , the air
conditioner is turned off. If it is set to any of the fan
speed positions, air is discharged from the rear
vents at the corresponding speed.

Static and flutter: During signal interference from
buildings, large hills or due to antenna position
(usually in conjunction with increased distance
from the station transmitter) , static or flutter can
be heard. This can be reduced by adjusting the
treble control to reduce treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and reflected
signals reach the receiver at the same time. The
signals may cancel each other, resulting in mo-
mentary flutter or loss of sound.
AM RADIO RECEPTION
AM signals, because of their low frequency, can
bend around objects and skip along the ground.
In addition, the signals can be bounced off the
ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of
these characteristics, AM signals are also sub-
ject to interference as they travel from transmitter
to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for several
seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in
areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.
SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION
When the satellite radio is used for the first time
or the battery has been replaced, the satellite
radio may not work properly. This is not a mal-
function. Wait more than 10 minutes with satellite
radio ON and the vehicle outside of any metal or
large building for satellite radio to receive all of
the necessary data.
The satellite radio mode will be skipped unless an
optional satellite receiver and antenna are in-
stalled and a SiriusXM® Satellite Radio service
subscription is active. Satellite radio is not avail-
able in Alaska, Hawaii and Guam.
Satellite radio performance may be affected if
cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite radio
signal.
If possible, do not put cargo over the satellite
antenna.
A build up of ice on the satellite radio antenna can
affect satellite radio performance. Remove the
ice to restore satellite radio reception.
