the interior temperature to your pr eference as quickly as possible.1Using Automatic Climate Control

fan control information on the audio/information
screen to operate manually. Select ic on to turn on or
off A/C , change the vent mode , or change the fan
speed.
If any buttons/icons are pressed while using the
climate control system in auto, the function of the
button/icon that was presse d will take priority.
The AUTO indicator will go off, but functions
unrelated to the button/icon that was pressed will be
controlled automatically.
To prevent cold air from bl owing in from outside, the
fan may operate at low speed for a while after the
AUTO button has been 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 air 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.

control system between on and off. When turned on,
the system returns to your last selection.
