CLIMATE VOICE COMMANDS
Adjust vehicle temperatures hands-free and keep 
everyone comfortable while you keep moving 
ahead. (If vehicle is equipped with climate control.)
Push the VR button on the steering wheel. After the 
beep, say one of the following commands:
“Set driver temperature to  70 degrees ”
“Set passenger temperature to  70 degrees ”
Did you know : Voice Command for Climate may only 
be used to adjust the interior temperature of your 
vehicle. Voice Command will not work to adjust the 
heated seats or steering wheel if equipped.
OPERATING TIPS 
Refer to the chart at the end of this section for 
suggested control settings for various weather 
conditions.
Summer Operation
The engine cooling system must be protected with 
a high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper 
corrosion protection and to protect against engine 
overheating. OAT coolant (conforming to 
MS.90032) is recommended.
Winter Operation
To ensure the best possible heater and defroster 
performance, make sure the engine cooling 
system is functioning properly and the proper  amount, type, and concentration of coolant is 
used. Use of the Air Recirculation mode during 
Winter months is not recommended, because it 
may cause window fogging.
Vacation/Storage  
For information on maintaining the Climate Control 
system when the vehicle is being stored for an 
extended period of time, see  Ú
page 357.
Window Fogging 
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild, 
rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear the 
windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and increase 
the front blower speed. Do not use the 
Recirculation mode without A/C for long periods, 
as fogging may occur.
Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of 
the windshield, is free of obstructions, such as 
leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may 
reduce airflow, and if they enter the air distribution 
box, they could plug the water drains. In Winter 
months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice, 
slush, and snow.
Cabin Air Filter  
The Climate Control system filters out dust and 
pollen from the air. Contact an authorized dealer to 
service your cabin air filter, and to have it replaced 
when needed.
Stop/Start System — If Equipped
While in an Autostop, the Climate Control system 
may automatically adjust airflow to maintain cabin 
comfort. Customer settings will be maintained 
upon return to an engine running condition.
Operating Tips Chart
WEATHER CONTROL SETTINGS
Hot Weather 
And Vehicle  Interior Is Very Hot Set the mode control to

Warm 
Weather Turn   (A/C) on and set the 
mode control to   (Panel  Mode).
Cool Sunny Operate in   (Bi-Level Mode).
Cool & 
Humid 
Conditions Set the mode control to   (Floor 
Mode) and turn   (A/C) on to  keep windows clear.
Cold 
Weather Set the mode control to   (Floor 
Mode). If windshield fogging 
starts to occur, move the control 
to   (Mix Mode).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using. When using 
your vacuum, basic precautions should be 
followed, including the following:
WARNING!
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing 
children to be in a vehicle unattended is 
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or 
others could be seriously or fatally injured. 
Children should be warned not to touch the 
parking brake, brake pedal or the gear 
selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, 
or in a location accessible to children, and do 
not leave the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in 
either the ACC position, or engine running 
(ON), unless you are using the vacuum 
system. Be aware a child could operate power 
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle 
when the vacuum system is in use. ALWAYS 
push ignition button to place ignition in the 
OFF position when finished using the vacuum 
system.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, serious injury or death:
 Do not use vacuum while vehicle is 
in motion or while driving.
Do not vacuum wet surfaces or any liquids.
Do not use to vacuum up anything outside of 
the vehicle.
 Do not vacuum any flammable 
liquids, such as gasoline, or use 
around explosive vapors. Vapors 
from flammable liquids may form an 
explosive mixture with air and can be ignited 
by heat, sparks, or flames. Vapors may travel 
to a source of ignition and explode. 
Do not vacuum anything that is burning or 
smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot 
ashes/embers.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close atten -
tion is necessary when used by or near chil -
dren.
Do not leave the vacuum running while unat -
tended.
Use only as described in this manual. Use only 
attachments provided with your vehicle.
Do not put any object into openings. Do not 
use with any opening blocked; keep free of 
dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce 
air flow.
Do not vacuum toxic material such as chlorine 
bleach, ammonia, drain cleaner, etc.
Do not vacuum hard or sharp objects such as 
glass, nails, screws, coins, etc.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts 
of body away from openings and moving parts.
Only use with filter in place. Periodically check 
that the filter is in place and in good condition.
WARNING!
This equipment incorporates parts such as 
switches, motors, or the like that tend to 
produce arcs or sparks that can cause an 
explosion. When using your vacuum near 
gasoline-dispensing equipment or service 
stations, park vehicle at least 20 ft (6 m) away 
from the exterior enclosure of any dispensing 
pump. The vacuum is mounted more than 
18 inches (45 cm) above ground level in your 
vehicle.

WARNING!
22_RUP_OM_EN_USC_t.book  Page 104   

260SAFETY  
As the air bags deflate, you may see some 
smoke-like particles. The particles are a normal 
by-product of the process that generates the 
non-toxic gas used for air bag inflation. These 
airborne particles may irritate the skin, eyes, 
nose, or throat. If you have skin or eye irritation, 
rinse the area with cool water. For nose or throat 
irritation, move to fresh air. If the irritation 
continues, see your doctor. If these particles 
settle on your clothing, follow the garment 
manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.
Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have 
deployed. If you are involved in another collision, 
the air bags will not be in place to protect you.NOTE:
Air bag covers may not be obvious in the interior 
trim, but they will open during air bag deploy -
ment.
After any collision, the vehicle should be taken 
to an authorized dealer immediately.
Enhanced Accident Response System  
In the event of an impact, if the communication 
network remains intact, and the power remains 
intact, depending on the nature of the event, the 
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) will determine 
whether to have the Enhanced Accident Response 
System perform the following functions:
Cut off fuel to the engine (if equipped).
Cut off battery power to the electric motor (if 
equipped).
Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has 
power.
Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as 
long as the battery has power or for 15 minutes 
from the intervention of the Enhanced Accident 
Response System.
Unlock the power door locks. Your vehicle may also be designed to perform any 
of these other functions in response to the 
Enhanced Accident Response System:
Turn off the Fuel Filter Heater, Turn off the HVAC 
Blower Motor, Close the HVAC Circulation Door
Cut off battery power to the:
Engine
Electric Motor (if equipped)
Electric power steering
Brake booster
Electric park brake
Automatic transmission gear selector
Horn
Front wiper
Headlamp washer pump (if equipped)
WARNING!
Deployed air bags and seat belt pretensioners 
cannot protect you in another collision. Have the 
air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and the seat 
belt retractor assemblies replaced by an 
authorized dealer immediately. Also, have the
