Climate Control System
Using Automatic Climate Control
The automatic climate control system maintains the interior temperature you select. 
The system also selects the proper mix of heat ed or cooled air that raises or lowers 
the interior temperature to your pr eference as quickly as possible.
Use the system when the engine is running.
1. Press the  AUTO button.
2. Adjust the interior temperature using the dr iver’s side or passenger’s side control 
dial.
3. Press the   (on/off)  button to cancel.
■Switching between the recirc ulation and fresh air modes
Press the   (recirculation) button and switch the mode depending on 
environmental conditions.
Recirculation mode (indicator on): Recirculat es air from the vehicle’s interior through 
the system.
Fresh air mode (indicator off): Maintains  outside ventilation. Keep the system in 
fresh air mode in normal situations.
1 Using Automatic Climate Control
If any buttons are presse d while using the climate 
control system in auto, the function of the button 
that was pressed will take priority.
The  AUTO  indicator will go off, but functions 
unrelated to the button th at was pressed will be 
controlled automatically.
To prevent cold air from bl owing in from outside, the 
fan may not start i mmediately when the  AUTO 
button is pressed.
If the interior is very warm, you can cool it down 
more rapidly by partial ly opening the windows, 
turning the system on auto, and setting the 
temperature to low. Change the fresh mode to 
recirculation mode  until the temperature cools down.
When you set the temperature to the lower or upper 
limit,  Lo or  Hi is displayed.
Pressing the   button sw itches the climate 
control system between on and off. When turned on, 
the system returns to your last selection.
While ECON mode is active, the climate control 
system may have reduced  cooling performance.

For your safety, make sure you have a clear view 
through all the windows before driving.
Do not set the temperatur e near the upper or lower 
limit.
When cold air hits the windshield, the outside of the 
windshield may fog up.
If the side windows fog up,  adjust the vents so that 
the air hits th e side windows.
1To rapidly defrost the windows
After defrosting the windows, switch over to fresh air 
mode. If you keep the syst em in recirculation mode, 
the windows may fog up from humidity. This 
impedes visibility.

Maintenance
Climate Control System Maintenance
Air Conditioning
To ensure proper and safe operation, th e Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE 
J2845) recommends that the refrigerant  system only be serviced by trained and 
certified technicians.
Never repair or replace the air conditioni ng evaporator (cooling coil) with one 
removed from a used or salvaged vehicle.
New replacement mobile air conditioning  evaporators must be certified (and 
labeled) as meeting SAE Standard J2842.
Dust and Pollen Filter
The climate control system is equipped wi th a dust and pollen filter that collects 
pollen, dust, and other debris in the air. The Maintenance MinderTM messages will let 
you know when to replace the filter.
We recommend that you replace the dust and pollen filter sooner when using your 
vehicle in areas with high  concentrations of dust.
1Air Conditioning
NOTICE
Vented refrigerant is harmful to the environment.
To avoid refrigerant from  venting, never replace the 
evaporator with one re moved from a used or 
salvaged vehicle.
Refrigerant in your  vehicle’s air conditioning system is 
flammable and can be igni ted during servicing if 
proper procedures  are not followed.
The air conditioner labe l is found under the hood:
