Climate Controls
Dual Automatic Climate Control
System
With this system you can control the heating, cooling,
and ventilation for your vehicle.
When the vehicle is rst started, the display will show the
driver’s temperature setting, the outside temperature, the
fan speed and the air delivery, for about 10 seconds.
The outside temperature is shown in the center of the
display. The digital display will show the readings
in Fahrenheit or Celsius. See “Personal Options”
underDIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-75for
information on changing your display.
Automatic Operation
AUTO (Automatic):Press the AUTO button to
place the entire system in the automatic mode.
When automatic operation is active, the system will
automatically control the inside temperature, the
air delivery mode, and the fan speed.
After a ten second display of the current settings,
the word AUTO, the driver’s temperature setting and the
outside temperature will be shown. The system will
operate to achieve your comfort set temperature
as quickly as possible. The AUTO control system works
best with the windows up and the removable roof
installed or the convertible top up.
1. Press the AUTO button.
2. Adjust the temperature to a comfortable setting
between 60°F (16°C) and 90°F (32°C). Choosing
the coldest or warmest temperature setting will
not cause the system to heat or cool any faster.
A setting of 73°F (23°C) is suggested.
In cold weather, the system will start at reduced fan
speeds to avoid blowing cold air into your vehicle
until warmer air is available. The system will
start out blowing air at the oor but may change
modes automatically as the vehicle warms up
to maintain the chosen temperature setting.

DIC Vehicle Personalization
Many features on your vehicle can be personalized.
This means that the operation of these features can be
set to operate differently depending on who is driving
the vehicle. See “Personal Options” later in this section
for the features that you can personalize.
The personalization settings for other features are
automatically updated and saved as the driver adjusts
them. These include the following settings and presets:
The radio presets, tone, volume, fade, balance,
equalization (EQ) settings and source (radio or CD)
The last climate control setting
The Head-Up Display (HUD) position and dimming
level, if your vehicle has this feature
The instrument panel cluster dimming level and last
selected DIC display
Separate personalization settings are saved for
two different drivers. One of the keyless access
transmitters is assigned to driver 1. The other is
assigned to driver 2. The back of the keyless access
transmitters are labelled 1 or 2 to correspond to
each driver.The current driver’s preferences are recalled when one
of the following occurs:
The lock or unlock button on the keyless access
transmitter, labelled 1 or 2, is pressed.
The appropriate memory button, 1 or 2, located on
the driver’s door is pressed. SeeMemory Seat,
Mirrors and Steering Wheel on page 1-4for more
information.
A valid keyless access transmitter is detected upon
opening the driver’s door.
If more than one valid keyless access transmitter is
detected upon opening the driver’s door, the driver
preferences for the lowest driver number will be recalled.
If a keyless access transmitter that is not labelled 1 or 2
is used, the personalization system will not recognize
the transmitter. The Driver Information Center (DIC) will
not display a current driver number and the features
that are normally programmed through the DIC will be
set to the default states. Also, if the OPTION button
is pressed, the DIC does not display the menus used to
set personalizations, but instead displays OPTIONS
UNAVAILABLE for a few seconds.
