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.

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  
Úpage 60.
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

tion, or other physical conditions must exercise care 
when using the steering wheel heater. It may cause 
burns even at low temperatures, especially if used 
for long periods.
 Do not place anything on the steering wheel that 
insulates against heat, such as a blanket or steering 
wheel covers of any type and material. This may 
cause the steering wheel heater to overheat.

UCONNECT VOICE RECOGNITION —
IF EQUIPPED 
INTRODUCING VOICE RECOGNITION
Start using Uconnect Voice Recognition (VR) with these 
helpful quick tips. It provides the key Voice Commands 
and tips you need to know to control your system.
BASIC VOICE COMMANDS
The following basic Voice Commands can be given at any 
point while using your Uconnect system.
Push the VR button on the steering wheel. After the beep, 
say:
“Cancel ” to stop a current voice session.
 “Help ” to hear a list of suggested Voice Commands.
 “Repeat ” to listen to the system prompts again.
Notice the visual cues that inform you of your Voice 
Recognition system’s status.
GET STARTED
The   VR button is used to activate/deactivate your 
Voice Recognition system.
Helpful hints for using Voice Recognition:
 Reduce background noise. Wind noise and passenger 
conversations are examples of noise that may impact 
recognition.
 Speak clearly at a normal pace and volume while facing 
straight ahead.
 Each time you give a Voice Command, first push the VR 
button, wait until after the beep, then say your Voice 
Command. You can also say the vehicle “Wake Up” 
word and state your command.
NOTE:The factory default Wake Up word is set to “Hey Uconnect” 
and can be reprogrammed through the Uconnect Settings. 
After the beep, say:
A passenger can press the VR button shortcut on the 
radio status bar to also issue a command.
 You can interrupt the help message or system prompts 
by pushing the VR button and saying a Voice Command 
or saying the vehicle’s “Wake Up” word and saying a 
command from the current category.

70GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE  
FLOOR MODE
Air comes from the floor outlets.
REAR CLIMATE CONTROL/BLOWER OFF
To manually set the rear blower controls to off, 
press the Rear Climate Control/Blower Off 
button.
AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL 
(ATC) — I
F EQUIPPED 
Automatic Operation
1. Push the AUTO button on the faceplate, or the AUTO 
button on the touchscreen on the Automatic 
Temperature Control (ATC) Panel.
2. Next, adjust the temperature you would like the  system to maintain by adjusting the driver and 
passenger temperature control buttons. Once the 
desired temperature is displayed, the system will 
achieve and automatically maintain that comfort 
level.
3. When the system is set up for your comfort level, it is  not necessary to change the settings. You will 
experience the greatest efficiency by simply allowing 
the system to function automatically.
NOTE:
It is not necessary to move the temperature settings for 
cold or hot vehicles. The system automatically adjusts 
the temperature, mode, and blower speed to provide 
comfort as quickly as possible.
 The temperature can be displayed in U.S. or Metric 
units by selecting the U.S./Metric customer-program -
mable feature within the Uconnect system  
Úpage 157.
To provide you with maximum comfort in the Automatic 
mode during cold start-ups, the blower fan will remain on 
low until the engine warms up. The blower will increase in 
speed and transition into Auto mode.
Manual Operation Override
This system offers a full complement of manual override 
features. The AUTO symbol in the front Automatic 
Temperature Control (ATC) display will be turned off when 
the system is being used in the manual mode.
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  
Úpage 299.
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.
