•Continuous use of the Recirculation mode may make the inside air stuffy and window fog-
ging may occur. Extended use of this mode is not recommended.
•The use of the Recirculation mode in cold or damp weather could cause windows to fog on
the inside, because of moisture buildup inside the vehicle. Select the outside air position for
maximum defogging.
•Recirculation can be used in all modes except for Defrost.
•The A/C can be deselected manually without disturbing the mode control selection.

Front Defrost Mode
Air is directed through the windshield and side window demister outlets. Use this mode with
maximum blower and temperature settings for best windshield and side window defrosting.
NOTE:The air conditioning compressor operates in Mix or Defrost, even if the Air Condition-
ing (A/C) button is not pushed. This dehumidifies the air to help dry the windshield. To im-
prove fuel economy, use these modes only when required.
Rear Defrost Button
Push and release the Rear Defrost Control button to turn on the rear window defroster and the
heated outside mirrors (if equipped). An indicator will illuminate when the rear window de-
froster is on. The rear window defroster automatically turns off after 20 minutes.
Temperature Control
Rotate this control to regulate the temperature of the air inside the passenger compartment. Ro-
tating the dial counterclockwise into the blue area of the scale indicates cooler temperatures,
while rotating clockwise into the red area indicates warmer temperatures. Rotating the Tempera-
ture Control all the way counterclockwise results in turning on the MAX A/C feature.
Blower Control
Rotate this control to regulate the amount of air forced through the ventilation system in any
mode. The blower speed increases as you move the control clockwise from the “0” (OFF) posi-
tion.

System Maintenance
In Winter, the Climate Control system must be turned on at
least once a month for approximately 10 minutes.
Have the system inspected at an authorized dealer before
the summer.
NOTE:The system uses R-1234yf (refrigerant) which does
not pollute the environment in the event of accidental
leakage. Under no circumstances is the use of R-134a
(refrigerant) allowed.Automatic Climate Control Overview

Mix Mode
Mix Mode is obtained by pressing both the Windshield Mode button and the Floor Mode but-
ton, activating them both. Air is directed through the floor, defrost, and side window demister
outlets. This setting works best in cold or snowy conditions that require extra heat to the wind-
shield. This setting is good for maintaining comfort while reducing moisture on the windshield.
Climate Control Power Button

Driver Temperature Knob
Provides the driver with independent temperature control. Rotate the adjustment knob to set
desired temperature shown in the Temperature Display. Rotate fully counterclockwise for maxi-
mum A/C (LO). The set temperature is shown on the display. Turning the control knob com-
pletely in one direction or the other activates the HI (maximum heating) or LO (maximum cool-
ing) functions shown in the display, respectively. To deactivate these functions, turn the
temperature knob to the desired temperature.

CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause damage to
the heating elements:
•Use care when washing the inside of the rear win-
dow. Do not use abrasive window cleaners on the
interior surface of the window. Use a soft cloth and a
mild washing solution, wiping parallel to the heat-
ing elements. Labels can be peeled off after soaking
with warm water.
• Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or abrasive
window cleaners on the interior surface of the win-
dow.

LED will turn off). To restore automatic control of compres-
sor, push the AUTO button again. NOTE:
With the compressor off, air cannot be introduced
to the passenger compartment with a temperature lower
than the outside temperature. Under certain environmental
conditions, windows could fog rapidly since the air is not
dehumidified.
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 passenger tem-
perature 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.

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 (if equipped) in certain open or
partially open positions. This is a normal occurrence and
can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear
windows open, then open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs
with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to
minimize the buffeting or open any window.
