MAX A/C: Touch the button to activate and maximize cooling. The driver and
passenger temperatures are set to LO, recirculated air flows through the
instrument panel vents, air conditioning automatically turns on and the fan
automatically adjusts to the highest speed.
A/C: Touch to switch the air conditioning on or off. Use A/C with recirculated
air to improve cooling performance and efficiency.

Recirculated air:
Touch to switch the recirculated air on or off. When
recirculated air is on, it may reduce the amount of time needed to cool down

recirculatied air to turn on) in all airflow modes except MAX A/C to reduce risk
of fogging. It may also turn on and off automatically in Panel or Panel/Floor
airflow modes during hot weather in order to improve cooling efficiency.

PHONE WARNING
Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, crash and
injury. We strongly recommend that
you use extreme caution when using any
device that may take your focus off the
road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of your vehicle. We recommend
against the use of any hand-held device
while driving and encourage the use of
voice-operated systems when possible.
Make sure you are aware of all applicable
local laws that may affect the use of
electronic devices while driving. Hands-free calling is one of the main
features of the system. Once you pair your
cell phone, you can access many options
using the touchscreen or voice commands.
While the system supports a variety of
features, many are dependent on your cell
phone
’s functionality.
Pairing Your Cell Phone for the
First Time
Pair your Bluetooth-enabled phone with
the system before using the functions in
hands-free mode.
Switch on Bluetooth on your device to
begin pairing. See your phone ’s manual if
necessary.
