button. This will take the mode
control out of AUTO mode.
On models with navigation systemIn AUTO mode, the vehicle ’s interior
temperature is independently

also regulates each temperature
based on the information of the

position which is updated
automatically by the navigation ’s
global positioning system (GPS). If
one side of the vehicle is getting too
much sun, the system lowers the
temperature only on that side.

off and takes the system out of SYNC
mode.
