Deactivation
To turn off the Rain Sensing Wipers, use the wiper
switch or place the ignition in the OFF position.
In the event of malfunction of the rain sensor
while it is active, the windshield wiper operates
intermittently at a speed consistent with the
sensitivity setting of the rain sensor, whether or
not there is rain on the glass for as long as the
sensor failure is indicated on the display.
The sensor continues to operate and it is possible
to set the windshield wiper to continuous mode
(1 or 2). The failure indication remains on for as
long as the sensor is active.
The rain sensor is able to recognize and automat-
ically adjust itself in the presence of the following
conditions:
Presence of dirt on the controlled surface (salt,
dirt, etc.).
Presence of streaks of water caused by the
worn window wiper blades.
Difference between day and night.
HEADLIGHT WASHERS — IF EQUIPPED
The windshield wiper lever operates the headlight
washers when the ignition is in the ON position
and the headlights are turned on. To use the
headlight washers, pull the lever toward you and
release it. The headlight washers will spray a
timed high-pressure spray of washer fluid onto
each headlight lens. In addition, the windshield
washers will spray the windshield and the
windshield wipers will cycle.

NOTE:
The headlight washers work on every tenth wash
cycle request.
CLIMATE CONTROL
The Climate Control system allows you to regulate
the temperature, air flow, and direction of air
circulating throughout the vehicle. The controls
are located on the touchscreen and on the
instrument panel below the radio.

Air Recirculation And Air Quality System (AQS)Air Recirculation is managed according
to the following operating mode:
Automatic engagement: indicator is
illuminated above the “A” on the Air Recircu -
lation Button
Forced activation (air circulation always
activated): indicator illuminated above the
icon on the Air Recirculation Button
Forced deactivation (air recirculation always
off with intake of outside air): both indicators
not illuminated on the Air Recirculation Button
The three operating conditions are obtained by
pushing the Air Recirculation Button in
sequence.
Enabling The Air Quality System (AQS) Function —
If Equipped
When the automatic recirculation function is
selected, the AQS function automatically
activates internal air recirculation when the
outside air is polluted (e.g. in heavy traffic and
tunnels).
At low external temperatures or in high humidity,
the automatic function turns off to avoid fogging
up the windows. The user can select the function
again by pushing the Air Recirculation Button.
In automatic operation, air recirculation will be
controlled by the system according to outside
environmental conditions.

NOTE:

With the AQS function active and after the
internal air recirculation system has been
functioning for a set amount of time, the
Climate Control System enables air intake to
cycle the air in the passenger compartment for
a set time. The AQS function is disabled during
the air changes.
The engagement of the recirculation system
makes it possible to reach the required
heating or cooling conditions faster. It is,
however, inadvisable to use it on rainy/cold
days as it can increase the possibility of the
windows fogging. When the outside
temperature is low, recirculation is forced off
to prevent the windows from fogging up.
Front Defrost Air comes from the windshield and side
window demist outlets. Use Defrost
mode with maximum temperature
settings for best windshield and side
window defrosting and defogging.
Rear Defrost
Push the Rear Defrost button to activate
(indicator illuminated) the Rear Defrost.
The Rear Defrost will turn off after 20 minutes or
once the engine is turned off.

NOTE:
To avoid damage, do not apply stickers over the
interior heating filaments of the Rear Defrost. Front Defrost And MAX-DEF Function
Push the MAX-DEF button (indicator
illuminated) to defrost the windshield
and side windows.
While in MAX-DEF function, the air conditioner
will:
Activate the air conditioner compressor when
the weather allows
Turn air recirculation off
Set the maximum air temperature (HI) on both
the driver and passenger side
Activate a blower speed based on the
temperature of the engine coolant
Adjust the air flow towards the windshield and
front side windows
Activate the Rear Window Defrost
Display the fan speed (indicators illuminated)
and current air distribution setting

NOTE:
The MAX-DEF function remains active for approx -
imately three minutes once the engine coolant
reaches the proper temperature.
When the function is on, AUTO mode will
deactivate. The only manual operations possible
are adjusting blower speed and turning off the
Rear Window Defrost.
Pushing the button switches off the MAX-DEF
function.

passenger air temperatures.
Rotate the passenger Temperature Adjustment
Knob to cancel the SYNC function. This will set a
new passenger side temperature.
Rotate the Temperature Adjustment Knob fully
clockwise to engage the HI (maximum heating)
setting or fully counterclockwise to engage the LO
(maximum cooling) setting. To deactivate these
functions, rotate the Temperature Adjustment
Knob to the desired temperature.
Rear passengers’ temperature is linked to driver
side selection.
AUTO Button
When the AUTO button is pushed (indicator
illuminated), the Climate Control system automat-
ically adjusts the following settings:
Quantity and distribution of air flow in the
passenger compartment
The air conditioner
Air recirculation
Cancels any manual settings
Selecting the AUTO function illuminates the
indicator on the A/C button.
If air distribution or the fan speed is manually
adjusted, the AUTO button indicator turns off to
indicate that the Climate Control system is no
longer in AUTO mode. After a manual adjustment, push the AUTO button
to resume the automatic system.
SYNC Button
Push the SYNC button (indicator illuminated) to
sync the passenger side air temperature with the
driver side air temperature.
This function makes temperature regulation
easier when the driver is traveling alone.
Turn the passenger Temperature Adjustment
Knob or push the passenger side Air Distribution
Selection Button to change the passenger side air
temperature and return to separate air
temperature management.
Blower Speed
Turn the Blower Speed Knob to increase or
decrease the blower speed. The speed is
displayed with lighted indicators in the radio
system display.
Maximum fan speed = all indicators
illuminated on the radio system display
Minimum fan speed = one indicator
illuminated on the radio system display
The fan can be turned off by rotating the Blower
Speed Knob counterclockwise to the off position
(all segments on the radio system display are
turned off).

NOTE:
To restore automatic control of the fan speed,
push the AUTO button.
Air Distribution Selection
Push the Air Distribution Selection button on the
faceplate to change the mode of air distribution.

NOTE:
In AUTO mode, the Climate Controls automatically
manage the air distribution. When set manually,
the respective symbols on the radio system indi -
cate the air distribution setting.
Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the
instrument panel to ventilate the chest
and face. 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.
NOTE:
Bi-Level mode is designed under comfort condi -
tions to provide cooler air out of the panel outlets
and warmer air from the floor outlets.
Floor Mode
Air comes from the floor outlets. A slight
amount of air is directed through the
defrost and side window demister
outlets. This setting heats the
passenger compartment the quickest.
