When the “” keyAis selected, the indi-
cator
Bwill turn off and the sonar will be
turned off temporarily. The Moving Object
Detection (MOD) system will also be turned
off at the same time. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Moving Object Detection
(MOD)” in this section. When the “
” key
Ais selected again, the indicator will turn on

∙ When the shift lever is in the D (Drive)position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h), the
MOD system detects moving objects in
the front view.
∙ When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h), the
MOD system detects moving objects in
the rear view. When activating the
Around View®Monitor, the guide lines,
the icons and the messages may not be
displayed immediately. The MOD system
will not operate if the liftgate is open. The MOD system does not detect moving
objects in the front-side view. The MOD icon
is not displayed on the screen when in this
view.
When the MOD system detects moving ob-
jects near the vehicle, a yellow frame will be
displayed on the view where the objects are
detected. While the MOD system continues
to detect moving objects, the yellow frame
continues to be displayed.
NOTE:
While the BCI chime (if so equipped) is beep-
ing, the MOD system does not chime.
In the bird’s-eye view, the yellow frame
1is
displayed on each camera image (front, rear,
right, left) depending on where moving ob-
jects are detected.
The yellow frame
2is displayed on each
view in the front view and rear view modes.

WARNING
∙ The air conditioner cooling function op- erates only when the engine is running.
∙ Do not leave children or adults who would normally require the assistance of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets should
also not be left alone. They could acciden-
tally injure themselves or others through
inadvertent operation of the vehicle.
Also, on hot, sunny days, temperatures in
a closed vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or possibly
fatal injuries to people or animals.
∙ Do not use the recirculation mode for long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.

HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER
(automatic)
4-34Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
Start the engine and operate the controls to
activate the air conditioner.
NOTE:∙ Odors from inside and outside the ve-
hicle can build up in the air conditioner
unit. Odor can enter the passenger com-
partment through the vents.
∙ When parking, set the heater and air
conditioner controls to turn off air recir-
culation to allow fresh air into the pas-
senger compartment. This should help
reduce odors inside the vehicle.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
Cooling and/or dehumidified
heating (AUTO)
This mode may be used all year round as the
system automatically works to keep a con-
stant temperature. Air flow distribution, in-
take air control, and fan speed are also con-
trolled automatically.
1. Press the AUTO button on. (The indica- tor on the button will illuminate and
AUTO will be displayed.)
2. Operate the driver’s side temperature control buttons. ∙ Adjust the temperature display to about
75°F (24°C) for normal operation.
∙ The temperature of the passenger com- partment will be maintained automati-
cally. Air flow distribution, intake air con-
trol, and fan speed are also controlled
automatically.
∙ A visible mist may be seen coming from the ventilators in hot, humid conditions as
the air is cooled rapidly. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
3. You can individually set the driver’s and front passenger’s side temperature us-
ing each side’s temperature control but-
tons.
∙ To synchronize the driver’s and front pas- senger’s temperature settings, press the
SYNC button. The SYNC indicator will
illuminate and SYNC text will appear in
the Climate display.
Dehumidified defrosting or
defogging
1. Press thefront defroster button
on. (The indicator light on the button will
come on.) 2. Operate the temperature control but-
tons to set the desired temperature.
∙ To quickly remove ice from the outside of the windows, use the
fan speed
control buttons to set the fan speed to
maximum.
∙ As soon as possible after the windshield is clean, press the AUTO button to return
to the automatic mode.
∙ When the
front defroster button is
pressed, the air conditioner will auto-
matically be turned on at outside tem-
peratures above 36°F (2°C). The air recir-
culate mode automatically turns off,
allowing outside air to be drawn into the
passenger compartment to further im-
prove the defogging performance.

Remote Engine Start with
Intelligent Climate Control (if so
equipped)
Vehicles equipped with automatic climate
controls and Remote Engine Start function
may go into automatic heating or cooling
mode when Remote Engine Start is activated
depending on outside and cabin tempera-
tures. During this period, the climate control
display and buttons will be inoperable until
the ignition switch is turned on. In Remote
Engine Start defrosting mode, the rear win-
dow defroster and heated steering wheel (if
so equipped) may be activated automatically.
Voice Recognition logic (if so
equipped)
When the climate control system is on, the
front and rear fan speeds may be automati-
cally lowered so that commands are more
easily recognized. Fan speed can be adjusted
using the fan speed
decrease
and
increase buttons, if desired.
MANUAL OPERATION
Fan speed control buttons
Press thefan speed control buttons to
manually control the fan speed.
Press the AUTO button to return to auto-
matic control of the fan speed.
Temperature control
Press thetemperature control buttons
up or down to set the desired temperature.
The temperature can be set within the fol-
lowing range:
∙ For U.S.: 60 to 90ºF (16 to 32ºC)
∙ For Canada: 64 to 90ºF (18 to 32ºC)
Air recirculation
Press theair recirculation button to re-
circulate interior air inside the vehicle.
The
indicator light on the button will
come on.
The air recirculation cannot be activated
when the air conditioner is in the
front
defrosting mode. When the outside temperature exceeds 70°F
(21°C), the air conditioning system may de-
fault to air recirculation mode automatically
to reduce overall power consumption. To exit
air recirculation mode, deselect the air recir-
culation button (indicator will turn off) to en-
ter fresh air mode.
Automatic intake air control
In the AUTO mode, the intake air will be
controlled automatically. To manually control
the intake air, press the
air recirculation
button.
Air flow control
Press thebutton to manually control
air flow. Pressing the button repeatedly will
cycle through the available modes and dis-
play the corresponding icon on the center
display:
— Air flows from center and side
vents.
— Air flows from center and sidevents and foot outlets.
— Air flows mainly from footoutlets.
— Air flows from defroster andfoot outlets.

∙ When the climate system is in automaticoperation and the engine coolant tem-
perature and outside air temperature are
low, the air flow outlet may default to
defroster mode for a maximum of 2 min-
utes 30 seconds. This is not a malfunc-
tion. After the engine coolant tempera-
ture warms up, the air flow outlet will
return to foot mode and operation will
continue normally.
∙ When the outside and interior cabin tem- peratures are moderate to high, the in-
take setting may default to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. You may notice
air flow from the foot mode, bi-level
mode, or side demist vent outlets for a
maximum of 15 seconds. This may occur
when the previous climate setting was
turned off. This is not a malfunction. Af-
ter the initial warm air is expelled, the
intake will return to automatic control,
the air flow outlet will return to previous
settings, and operation will continue nor-
mally. To exit, press any climate control
button.
∙ Keep the moonroof closed while the air conditioner is in operation. ∙ If you feel that the air flow mode you
have selected and the outlets the air is
coming out do not match, select the
mode.
∙ When you change the air flow mode, you may feel air flow from the foot outlets for
just a moment. This is not a malfunction.
