Climate Control System
Using Automatic Climate Control

fresh air mode in normal situations.
1 Using Automatic Climate Control
If any buttons are presse d while using the climate
control system in auto, the function of the button
that was pressed will take priority.

unrelated to the button th at was pressed will be
controlled automatically.

fan may not start i mmediately when the AUTO
button is pressed.
If the interior is very warm, you can cool it down
more rapidly by partial ly opening the windows,

recirculation mode until the temperature cools down.

control system between on and off. When turned on,
