Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
Automatic Operation
1. Push the AUTO button on the faceplate,
or the AUTO button on the touchscreen (if
equipped) on the Automatic Temperature
Control (ATC) Panel.
2. Next, adjust the temperature you would
like the system to maintain by adjusting
the temperature control buttons. Once the
desired temperature is displayed, the sys-
tem achieves and automatically maintains
that comfort level.
3. When the system is set up for your comfort
level, it is not necessary to change the
settings. You experience the greatest effi-
ciency by simply allowing the system to
function automatically.
NOTE:
• It is not necessary to move the temperature
settings for cold or hot vehicles. The system
automatically adjusts the temperature,
mode, and blower speed to provide comfort
as quickly as possible.• The temperature can be displayed in U.S.
or Metric units by selecting the US/Metric
customer-programmable feature.
To provide you with maximum comfort in the
Automatic mode during cold start-ups, the
blower fan remains on low until the engine
warms up. The blower increases in speed and
transition into Auto mode.
Manual Operation Override
This system offers a full complement of
manual override features. The AUTO symbol
in the front ATC display will be turned off
when the system is being used in the manual
mode.
Operating Tips
Summer Operation
The engine cooling system must be protected
with a high-quality antifreeze coolant to pro-
vide proper corrosion protection and to pro-
tect against engine overheating. OAT coolant
(conforming to MS.90032) is recommended.
Winter Operation
To ensure the best possible heater and de-
froster performance, make sure the engine
cooling system is functioning properly and
the proper amount, type, and concentration
of coolant is used. Use of the Air Recircula-
tion mode during Winter months is not rec-
ommended, because it may cause window
fogging.
Vacation/Storage
Before you store your vehicle, or keep it out of
service (i.e., vacation) for two weeks or more,
run the air conditioning system at idle for
about five minutes, in fresh air with the
blower setting on high. This will ensure ad-
equate system lubrication to minimize the
possibility of compressor damage when the
system is started again.
Window Fogging
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in
mild, rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear
the windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and
increase the front blower speed. Do not use
the Recirculation mode without A/C for long
periods, as fogging may occur.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DISPLAY
Your vehicle may be equipped with an instru-
ment cluster display, which offers useful in-
formation to the driver. With the ignition in
the STOP/OFF mode, opening/closing of a
door will activate the display for viewing, and
display the total miles, or kilometers, in the
odometer. Your instrument cluster display is
designed to display important information
about your vehicle’s systems and features.
Using a driver interactive display located on
the instrument panel, your instrument clus-
ter display can show you how systems are
working and give you warnings when they
aren’t. The steering wheel mounted controls
allow you to scroll through and enter the main
menus and submenus. You can access the
specific information you want and make se-
lections and adjustments.

The instrument cluster display features a
driver-interactive display that is located in
the instrument cluster.The instrument cluster display menu items
consist of the following as equipped:
• Speedometer
• Vehicle Info
• Driver Assist
• Fuel Economy

If Equipped
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil
change indicator system. The “Oil Change
Due” message will display in the instrument
cluster display for five seconds after a single
chime has sounded, to indicate the next
scheduled oil change interval. The engine oil
change indicator system is duty cycle based,
which means the engine oil change interval
may fluctuate, dependent upon your personal
driving style.
Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) — If Equipped
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system is en-
abled on vehicles with a manual transmis-
sion, or when a vehicle with an automatic
transmission is in manual shift mode. The
GSI provides the driver with a visual indica-
tion when the recommended gear shift point
has been reached. This indication notifies
the driver that changing gear will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption. When the up
shift indicator is shown on the instrument
cluster display, the GSI is advising the driver
to engage a higher gear. When the down shift
indicator is shown on the display, the GSI is
advising the driver to engage a lower gear.
The GSI indicator remains illuminated until
the driver changes gear, or the driving condi-
tions return to a situation where changing
gear is not required to improve fuel consump-
tion.

MESSAGE DESCRIPTION
Diesel Emissions Additive AdBlue (UREA) Warning Messages:
Low Diesel Emissions Additive
AdBlue (UREA) Level WarningThe first low level warning will be given at around a 1490 miles (2400 km) range, and is determined
according to the current consumption rate. The “UREA Low Level” warning light and message will display on
the instrument panel. The UREA low level warning light will remains lit until the AdBlue (UREA) tank is
topped up with at least 1.32 gallons (5 Liters) of UREA.
If the level is not resolved, an additional warning appear whenever a certain threshold is reached until it will
no longer be possible to start the engine.
When 125 miles (200 km) are remaining before the AdBlue (UREA) tank is empty, a message will appear
on the instrument panel, accompanied by a buzzer sound. When the range is at 0, the display will show a
dedicated message (if equipped). In this case, the engine will not restart.
It will be possible to restart the engine again as soon as AdBlue (UREA) is added; the minimum amount
required is 1.32 gallons (5 Liters). Fill the AdBlue (UREA) tank as soon as possible with at least
1.32 gallons (5 Liters) of UREA. If filling is completed with autonomy tank AdBlue (UREA) to zero,
it could be possible to wait 2 minutes before starting the vehicle.
NOTE:
When the AdBlue (UREA) tank is empty, and the vehicle is stopped, it is no longer possible to restart the
vehicle until a minimum of 1.32 gallons (5 Liters) of AdBlue (UREA) is added to the AdBlue (UREA) tank.
