on other vehicle systems for heat and
power input. The climate control
system will balance Stop/Start
efficiency with air conditioning
comfort and defog operation.
The following climate control settings
result in fewer Auto Stops:
.The defrost mode
. High fan speed settings
. Extreme temperature settings
Automatic Operation
The system automatically controls the
fan speed, air delivery, air
conditioning, and recirculation in
order to heat or cool the vehicle to the
desired temperature.
When AUTO is lit, all four functions
operate automatically. Each function
can also be manually set and the
selected setting is displayed.
Functions not manually set will continue to be automatically
controlled, even if the AUTO indicator
is not lit.
For automatic operation:
1. Press AUTO.
2. Set the temperature. Allow the system time to stabilize. Then
adjust the temperature as needed
for best comfort.
To improve fuel efficiency and to cool
the vehicle faster, recirculation may be
automatically selected in warm
weather. The recirculation light will
not come on. Press
