Driver And Passenger Temperature Up And
Down Buttons
These buttons provide the driver and passenger
with independent temperature control.
Push the red button on the faceplate
or touchscreen or press and slide the
temperature bar towards the red arrow
button on the touchscreen for warmer
temperature settings.
Push the blue button on the faceplate
or touchscreen or press and slide the
temperature bar towards the blue arrow

touchscreen to toggle the SYNC feature
on/off. The SYNC indicator illuminates
when SYNC is on. SYNC synchronizes the
passenger temperature setting with the driver
temperature setting. Changing the passenger’s
temperature setting while in SYNC will
automatically exit this feature.
NOTE:The SYNC button is only available on the touch-
screen.
Blower Control
Blower Control regulates the amount of
air forced through the Climate Control
system. There are seven blower speeds
available. Adjusting the blower will cause
automatic mode to switch to manual operation.
The speeds can be selected using either the
blower control knob on the faceplate or the
buttons on the touchscreen.
Faceplate
The blower speed increases as you turn the blower
control knob clockwise from the lowest blower
setting. The blower speed decreases as you turn
the blower control knob counterclockwise.

buttons on the touchscreen to change
the airflow distribution mode. The airflow
distribution mode can be adjusted so air
comes from the instrument panel outlets, floor
outlets, defrost outlets, and demist outlets.
Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the
instrument panel. Each of these outlets
can be individually adjusted to direct the
flow of air. The air vanes of the center
outlets and outboard outlets can be moved up and
down or side to side to regulate airflow direction.
There is a shut off wheel located below the air
vanes to shut off or adjust the amount of airflow
from these outlets.
Bi-Level Mode
Air comes from the instrument panel
outlets and floor outlets. A slight amount
of air is directed through the defrost and
side window demister outlets.

display.
To turn the LaneSense system off, push the
LaneSense button once (LED turns on).
NOTE:The LaneSense system will retain the last system
state, on or off, from the last ignition cycle when
the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN position.
LANESENSE WARNING MESSAGE
The LaneSense system will indicate the current
lane drift condition through the instrument cluster
display. Premium Instrument Cluster Display
When the LaneSense system is on, the lane lines
are gray when both of the lane boundaries have
not been detected and the LaneSense telltale is
solid white.

System On (Gray Lines/White Telltale)

Left Lane Departure — Only Left Lane Detected

When the LaneSense system is on, the LaneSense
telltale is solid white when only the left lane marking
has been detected and the system is ready to
provide visual warnings in the instrument cluster
display if a lane departure occurs.

When the LaneSense system senses the lane has
been approached and is in a lane departure situ-
ation, the left lane line flashes yellow (on/off),
and the LaneSense telltale changes from solid
white to flashing yellow.
Lane Approached With Flashing Yellow Line/Flashing Yellow Telltale

NOTE:The LaneSense system operates with similar
behavior for a right lane departure when only the
right lane marking has been detected.

21_LD_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 110

STARTING AND OPERATING111
Left Lane Departure — Both Lanes Detected
When the LaneSense system is on, the lane
lines turn from gray to white to indicate that
both of the lane markings have been detected.
The LaneSense telltale is solid green when both
lane markings have been detected and the
system is “armed” to provide visual warnings in
the instrument cluster display and a torque
warning in the steering wheel if an unintentional
lane departure occurs.

Lanes Sensed (White Lines/Green Telltale)

When the LaneSense system senses a lane drift
situation, the left lane line turns solid yellow.
The LaneSense telltale changes from solid
green to solid yellow. At this time torque is
applied to the steering wheel in the opposite
direction of the lane boundary.
For example, if approaching the left side of the
lane the steering wheel will turn to the right.

Lane Drift With Solid Yellow Line/Solid Yellow Telltale
When the LaneSense system senses the lane has
been approached and is in a lane departure situa -
tion, the left lane line flashes yellow (on/off).
The LaneSense telltale changes from solid yellow to
flashing yellow. At this time torque is applied to the
steering wheel in the opposite direction of the lane
boundary.

For example, if approaching the left side of the
lane the steering wheel will turn to the right.

Lane Approached With Flashing Yellow Line/Flashing Yellow Telltale

NOTE:The LaneSense system operates with similar
behavior for a right lane departure.
