Humidity Sensor
The Humidity Sensor helps prevent the
windows from fogging up. The AUTO function
(indicator illuminated) must be on for the
Humidity Sensor to function.
When outside temperature is low, the system
may turn the compressor on and turn air recir-
culation off for safer driving.
Stop/Start
The Stop/Start system shuts off the engine
when the vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h), as
a fuel conservation measure.
In order to maintain comfort in the cabin, the
Stop/Start feature will not activate if any of the
following conditions exist:
The Climate Control system is in AUTO mode
(indicator illuminated), and the vehicle has
yet to reach the set temperature
The Climate Control system is in LO
maximum cooling
The Climate Control system is in HI
maximum heating
The Climate Control system is in the
MAX-DEF status
When the Stop/Start system is active, the
engine will restart if the inside temperature
changes significantly, or if the LO setting, or
MAX-DEF setting, is activated. With Stop/Start system on (engine is OFF), air
flow is reduced to keep the compartment
comfort conditions for longer.
Until the temperature drastically changes
within the cabin, the climate control system
will continue to maintain the temperature
while the engine is off. By deactivating the
Stop/Start system with the button (located
by the headlight switch), the climate control
system operates normally according to the
settings.

NOTE:

In harsh climate conditions, limit the use of
the Stop/Start system to prevent the
compressor from continuously switching on
and off. This will cause rapid misting of the
windows and the accumulation of humidity
in the passenger compartment.
When the Stop/Start system is on, the
climate control system will always take air in
from outside, reducing the probability of the
windows fogging up.
System Maintenance
In winter months, the Climate Control system
must be turned on at least once a month for
approximately 10 minutes.
Have the system inspected at an authorized
dealer before the summer.
INTERIOR STORAGE AND
EQUIPMENT
Glove Compartment

Opening The Glove Compartment
Pull the release handle to open the glove
compartment.
When the glove compartment is opened, a
light turns on to illuminate the inside of the
compartment.

NOTE:

If equipped with a lock, unlock the glove
compartment by placing the emergency key
in the lock on the handle.
Do not insert large objects that will prevent
the glove compartment from closing
completely.

radio system:
“Your phone is being charged” — The phone
has begun to charge.
“Phone Fully Charged” — The phone has
completed charging its battery.
“Foreign Object Detected” — The phone is
not enabled for wireless charging or an
object that is not permitted has been placed
on the wireless charging pad.

POWER WINDOWS
Power Window Controls
The power window switches work with the igni -
tion in the ACC or ON/RUN position and for
three minutes after the ignition has been
placed in the OFF position. When one of the
front doors is opened, this operation is
disabled.
The window controls on the driver's door
control all the door windows. Power Window Switches
The passenger door windows can also be oper -
ated by using the single window controls on
the passenger door trim panel.
To open the window part way (manually), push
the window switch down briefly and release.
Push past the detent to activate “continuous
automatic” operation.
If the button is pushed again, the window will
stop in the desired position.
Pull the window switch to the first detent to
move the window upward. Pull the window
switch to the second detent, and the window
will go up automatically.
CAUTION!
The key fob should not be placed on the
charging pad or within 15 cm (150 mm) of
it. Doing so can cause excessive heat
buildup and damage to the fob. Placing the
fob in close proximity of the charging pad
blocks the fob from being detected by the
vehicle and prevents the vehicle from
starting.

The sunroof has three preset positions:
Fully closed
Comfort (intermediate opening)
Fully open

NOTE:

You cannot have the sunshade closed when
the sunroof is open.
Opening And Closing The Sunroof
To open the sunroof’s front panel, push the
open/close button toward the rear of the
vehicle to open to the comfort position (half
way). Pushing the button a second time will
open to the fully open position.
To close the sunroof, push the open/close
button toward the front of the vehicle. The roof
will close completely.
The automatic motion can be interrupted in
any position by pushing the open/close button
again.
Venting Sunroof
To bring the roof into vent position, push and
release the vent button.
This type of vent opening can be activated
regardless of the position of the sunroof.
When starting with the roof in the closed posi -
tion, pushing the vent button automatically
causes the sunroof to open to the vent posi -
tion. If the roof is already open, the button
must be held until the roof reaches the
vent-opening position.
Pushing the vent button again during auto -
matic movement of the roof will stop it.
Sunshade Operation
The sunshade is power operated.
Push the Power Shade open/close button
toward the rear of the vehicle to open the sun
shade.
Push the Power Shade open/close button
toward the front of the vehicle to close the sun
shade.
The automatic motion can be interrupted in
any position by pushing the Power Shade
open/close button again.
Pinch Protect Feature
The sunroof has an anti-pinch safety system
capable of detecting the presence of an
obstacle during the closing movement. If an
obstacle is detected, the system intervenes
and the movement of the sunroof is immedi -
ately reversed.
Re-Initialization Procedure
Automatic operation of the sunroof must be
re-initialized in case of faulty sunroof opera -
tion. It may also be necessary to initialize the
sunroof after the vehicle’s battery has been
disconnected and then reconnected.

NOTE:

The anti-pinch safety device is deactivated
during the re-initialization procedure.
WARNING!

Never leave children unattended in a
vehicle, or with access to an unlocked
vehicle. Never leave the key fob in or near
the vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil -
dren. Do not leave the ignition of a vehicle
equipped with keyless ignition in the ON/
RUN mode. Occupants, particularly unat -
tended children, can become entrapped by
the power sunroof while operating the power
sunroof switch. Such entrapment may result
in serious injury or death.

In a collision, there is a greater risk of
being thrown from a vehicle with an open
sunroof. You could also be seriously
injured or killed. Always fasten your seat
belt properly and make sure all passen -
gers are also properly secured.
Do not allow small children to operate the
sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other
body parts, or any object, to project
through the sunroof opening. Injury may
result.
CAUTION!
Do not open the sun roof if a roof rack or
crossbars are fitted. Do not open the sun
roof if there is snow or ice on it: you may
damage it.
