of fog or frost more quickly. Air is
directed to the windshield and side
window outlets.
For best results, clear all snow and
ice from the windshield before
defrosting.
A/C (For Non-Stop/Start
Vehicles) : Press to turn the air
conditioning on or off. If the fan is
turned off, the air conditioner will not
run and the indicator light may
turn off.
Press AUTO to return to automatic
operation and the air conditioner
runs as needed. When the indicator
light is on, the air conditioner runs
automatically to cool the air inside
the vehicle or to dry the air as
needed to defog the windshield
faster.
A/C (For Stop/Start Vehicles) :
Press to cycle between the off, eco,
and comfort air conditioning modes.
The indicator will be lit in comfort
and eco modes and turns off when
there is no A/C function. If the fan is turned off, the air conditioner will not
run and the indicator light may
turn off.
Press AUTO to return to automatic
operation and the air conditioner
runs automatically as needed. When
the indicator light is on, the air
conditioner runs automatically to
cool the air inside the vehicle or to
dry the air as needed to defog the

For comfort a/c, press A/C. The
indicator will turn amber.
For eco a/c, press A/C again. The
indicator will turn green. This setting
balances fuel economy and air
conditioning comfort. In warm
weather conditions, Auto Stops may
occur more frequently and the
vehicle interior may be warmer as
compared to the comfort air
conditioning setting. This setting
allows higher humidity inside the
vehicle and window fogging before
the engine restarts.
Pressing
0during an Auto Stop
may restart the engine to prevent
window fogging. To reach comfort levels quickly during an Auto Stop,
the engine will restart if the air
conditioner is off and AUTO or A/C
is selected.
If temperature controls are adjusted
cooler during an Auto Stop, the
engine may restart to ensure that
comfort is reached.

quickly cool the inside of the vehicle
or prevent outside air and odors
from entering.
Auto Defog : The climate control
system may have a sensor to
automatically detect high humidity
inside the vehicle. When high
humidity is detected, the climate
control system may adjust to
outside air supply and turn on the
air conditioner. The fan speed may
slightly increase to help prevent
fogging. If the climate control
system does not detect possible
window fogging, it returns to normal
operation. To turn Auto Defog off or

266 Vehicle Care
Tire Pressure for
High-Speed Operation
{Warning
Driving at high speeds, 160 km/h
(100 mph) or higher, puts
additional strain on tires.
Sustained high-speed driving
causes excessive heat buildup
and can cause sudden tire failure.
This could cause a crash, and
you or others could be killed.
Some high-speed rated tires
require inflation pressure
adjustment for high-speed
operation. When speed limits and
road conditions allow the vehicle
to be driven at high speeds, make
sure the tires are rated for
high-speed operation, are in
excellent condition, and are set to
the correct cold tire inflation
pressure for the vehicle load.
Vehicles with P245/45R19 and
P245/40R20 size tires require
inflation pressure adjustment when driving the vehicle at speeds of
160 km/h (100 mph) or higher. Set
the cold inflation pressure to
270 kPa (39 psi).
Return the tires to the
recommended cold tire inflation
pressure when high-speed driving
has ended.
See
Vehicle Load Limits 0168 and
Tire Pressure 0264.
Tire Pressure Monitor
System
The Tire Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS) uses radio and sensor
technology to check tire pressure
levels. The TPMS sensors monitor
the air pressure in your tires and
transmit tire pressure readings to a
receiver located in the vehicle.
Each tire, including the spare (if
provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to
the inflation pressure recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire
inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale when one or more
of your tires is significantly
under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as
soon as possible, and inflate them
to the proper pressure. Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure. Under-inflation
also reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the
vehicle's handling and stopping
ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver's
responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if under-inflation has
