If equipped with remote start, the climate
control system may run when the vehicle is
started remotely. If equipped with heated or
ventilated seats or a heated steering wheel,
these features may come on during a
remote start. See Remote Vehicle Start 012,
Heated and Ventilated Front Seats 039, and
Heated Steering Wheel 083.
Sensor

information to adjust the temperature, fan
speed, recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort.
Do not cover the sensor; otherwise the
automatic climate control system may not
work properly.
Interior Air Quality
If equipped, the Interior Air Quality display
indicates the concentration of PM2.5

equipped with a cabin filter which cleans the
air and reduces this pollution anytime the
HVAC is on.
The displayed value is updated every few
seconds by a sensor in the vehicle’s interior.
Higher numbers indicate a higher level of
pollution in the air while lower numbers
indicate cleaner air. A reading of zero
indicates the pollution level is too low to be
read by the sensor.
The interior air quality level is displayed in
the application which can be opened from
the home screen. The interior air quality
level may also be continually displayed in
the lower right corner of the screen. This
can be turned on or off by selecting the
