To Turn On The Climate Control System
To switch the Climate Control system on in
automatic mode, push the AUTO button.
Operating Mode
The Climate Control system can be activated in
different ways. It is recommended to use the
automatic function. Push the AUTO button and
set the desired temperatures.
The automatic system adjusts the temperature,
quantity, and distribution of air introduced into
the passenger compartment. It also controls air
recirculation and the activation of the air
conditioner.
At any time during automatic operation, you can
change the temperature, activate or deactivate
the Rear Defrost, activate SYNC, activate or
deactivate the air conditioner, and activate or
deactivate air recirculation. The system will
automatically adjust to the new settings.
Climate Control Display Settings
The Climate Control settings are visible on the
radio screen.
The display on the radio system is a pop up
window, which is activated by pushing the
buttons or turning the knobs on the Climate
Control system. The indicator lights located on
the buttons and knobs indicate that the selected
feature is on/off. If no operation is performed for
a predetermined time, the pop-up will close on
the display.
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 recirculation
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.

Fuel Reserve/Limited Range
The indicator light (or the symbol in the
display) illuminates when about 2.4
gallons (9 liters) of fuel is left in the tank.
Rear Fog Lights
The indicator illuminates when the rear
fog light is activated.
Tire Pressure Low Warning Light
The indicator light will illuminate to
indicate that the tire pressure is lower
than the recommended value and/or
that slow pressure loss is occurring. In
these cases, optimal tire duration and fuel
consumption may not be guaranteed.
In any situation in which the message on the
display is “See Manual”

Ú
page 149.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Warning Light
The warning light switches on and a
message is displayed to indicate that
the tire pressure is lower than the
recommended value and/or that slow
pressure loss is occurring. In these cases, optimal
tire duration and fuel consumption may not be
guaranteed. Should one or more tires be in the condition
mentioned above, the display will show the
indications corresponding to each tire.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should
be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the
inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle
manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label. If your vehicle has tires of
a different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a TPMS that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly underinflated. Accordingly, when the
low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving
on a significantly underinflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under
inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling
and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s
responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under inflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire
pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to indicate when the
system is not operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is combined with the low
tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi
-
mately one minute and then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire pressure as
intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the
vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels
on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
CAUTION!
If the warning light or the icon on the display
flashes while driving, contact an authorized
dealer.
CAUTION!
Do not continue driving with one or more flat
tires as handling may be compromised. Stop
the vehicle, avoiding sharp braking and
steering. If a tire puncture occurs, repair
immediately using the dedicated tire repair kit
and contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.

If Equipped
The telltale is illuminated only for a
limited time.

NOTE:
After the first indication, each time the engine is
started the symbol will continue to illuminate as
described above until the oil is changed.
If the telltale flashes, this does not mean that
there is a fault on the vehicle, rather it simply
reports that it is now necessary to change the oil
as a result of regular use of the vehicle. The
deterioration of engine oil is accelerated by using
the vehicle for short drives, preventing the engine
from reaching operating temperature.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
