The Remote Start system will turn the engine off
with another push and release of the Remote Start
button on the key fob, or if the engine is allowed to
run for the entire 15 minute cycle. Once the
ignition is placed in the ON/RUN position, the
climate controls will resume previously set
operations (temperature, blower control, etc.).
NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with the Keyless
Enter ‘n Go™ — Passive Entry feature, the
message “Remote Start Active — Push Start
Button” will show in the instrument cluster
display until you push the START/STOP ignition
button.
To avoid unintentional shutdowns, the system
will disable for two seconds after receiving a
valid Remote Start request.
REMOTE START FRONT DEFROST
A
CTIVATION — IF EQUIPPED
When Remote Start is active, and the outside
ambient temperature is 40°F (4.5°C) or below, the
system will automatically activate front defrost for
15 minutes or less. The time is dependent on the
ambient temperature. Once the timer expires, the
system will automatically adjust the settings depending on ambient conditions. See “Remote
Start Comfort Systems — If Equipped” in the next
section for detailed operation.
REMOTE START COMFORT SYSTEMS —
I
F EQUIPPED
When Remote Start is activated, the front and rear
defrost will automatically turn on in cold weather.
The heated steering wheel and driver heated seat
feature will turn on if selected in the Comfort menu
screen within Uconnect Settings Ú page 188. In
warm weather, the driver vented seat feature will
automatically turn on when Remote Start is
activated, if programmed in the Comfort menu
screen. The vehicle will adjust the climate control
settings depending on the outside ambient
temperature.
Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) —
If Equipped
The climate controls will be automatically adjusted
to the optimal temperature and mode settings
depending on the outside ambient temperature.
This will occur until the ignition is placed in the
ON/RUN position where the climate controls will
resume their previous settings. Manual Temperature Control (MTC) — If Equipped
In ambient temperatures at 40°F (4.5°C) or
below, the climate settings will default to
maximum heat, with fresh air entering the
cabin. If the front defrost timer expires, the
vehicle will enter Mix Mode.
In ambient temperatures from 40°F (4.5°C) to
78°F (26°C), the climate settings will be based
on the last settings selected by the driver.
In ambient temperatures at 78°F (26°C) or
above, the climate settings will default to
MAX A/C, Bi-Level mode, with Recirculation on.
For more information on ATC, MTC, and climate
control settings, see Ú page 72.
NOTE:These features will stay on through the duration of
Remote Start until the ignition is placed in the
ON/RUN position. The climate control settings will
change, and exit automatic operation, if manually
adjusted by the driver while the vehicle is in
Remote Start mode. This includes the OFF button
on the climate controls, which will turn the
system off.

faceplate to change the current setting.
The indicator illuminates when A/C is on.
NOTE:
If the system is in Mix or Defrost Mode, the A/C
can be turned off, but the A/C system shall
remain active to prevent fogging of the windows.
If not operating in AUTO mode, the system will
not automatically sense the presence of fog,
mist or ice on the windshield. Defrost Mode
must be manually selected to clear the wind -
shield and side glass.
If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side
glass, select Defrost Mode and adjust blower
speed if needed.
Recirculation Button
Press and release the Recirculation
button on the touchscreen, or press the
button on the faceplate, to change the
system between recirculation mode and
outside air. The Recirculation indicator and the
A/C indicator illuminate when the Recirculation
button is pressed. Recirculation can be used when
outside conditions such as smoke, odors, dust, or
high humidity are present. Recirculation can be
used in all modes. Recirculation may be
unavailable (button on the touchscreen greyed
out) if conditions exist that could create fogging on
the inside of the windshield. The A/C can be
deselected manually without disturbing the mode
control selection. Continuous use of Recirculation
mode may make the inside air stuffy and window
fogging may occur. Extended use of this mode is
not recommended. Recirculation mode may
automatically adjust to optimize customer
experience for warming, cooling,
dehumidification, etc.

button on the faceplate to change the
current airflow setting to Defrost mode.
The indicator illuminates when this feature is on.
Air comes from the windshield and side window
demist outlets. When the defrost button is
selected, the blower level may increase. Use
Defrost mode with maximum temperature settings
for best windshield and side window defrosting
and defogging. Performing this function will cause the Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) to switch
into manual mode. If the Front Defrost mode is
turned off the climate system will return to the
previous setting.
Rear Defrost Button
Press and release the Rear Defrost
Control button on the touchscreen or
push and release the button on the

the Temperature readout on the top left and right
corners of the status bar.
SYNC Button
Press the SYNC button on the
touchscreen to toggle the SYNC feature
on/off. The SYNC indicator is illuminated
when this feature is enabled. SYNC is
used to synchronize the front and rear passenger

setting. Changing the front or rear passenger
temperature setting while in SYNC will
automatically exit this feature.
NOTE:
The SYNC setting is only available on the touchscreen.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause
damage to the heating elements:

parallel to the heating elements. Labels can
be peeled off after soaking with warm water.
Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or
abrasive window cleaners on the interior
surface of the window.
Keep all objects a safe distance from the
window.

Blower Control
Blower Control regulates the amount of
air forced through the climate control
system. There are seven blower speeds
available. Adjusting the blower will cause
automatic mode to switch to manual operation.
The speeds can be selected using either the
blower control knob on the faceplate or the
buttons on the touchscreen.
Faceplate: The blower speed increases as you
turn the blower control knob clockwise from
the lowest blower setting. The blower speed
decreases as you turn the blower control knob
counterclockwise.
Touchscreen: Blower speed can be selected by
pressing the blower bar area between the icons.
Press the desired blower speed from 1-7.
Mode Control
The airflow distribution mode can be
adjusted so air comes from the
instrument panel outlets, floor outlets,
defrost outlets and demist outlets.
Faceplate: Push the button in the center of the
knob to change the airflow distribution mode.
Touchscreen: Select Mode by pressing one of the
Mode Buttons on the touchscreen.
Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the
instrument panel. 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.
Mix Mode
Air is directed through the floor, defrost,
and side window demister outlets. This
setting works best in cold or snowy
conditions that require extra heat to the
windshield. This setting is good for maintaining
comfort while reducing moisture on the
windshield.
Climate Control OFF Button
Press and release this button on the
touchscreen or push and release the
button on the faceplate to turn the
Climate Control ON/OFF.
Controlling The Rear Climate Controls

one side will shut off the airflow.
BI-LEVEL MODE
Air comes from both the headliner outlets
and the floor outlets.
NOTE:In many temperature positions, the Bi-Level mode
is designed to provide cooler air out of the head -
liner outlets and warmer air from the floor outlets.
