Remote Vehicle Start
This vehicle has a remote starting
feature that starts the engine from
outside of the vehicle.
/(Remote Start) : This button is
on the RKE transmitter if the vehicle
has remote start.
Laws in some communities may
restrict the use of remote starters.
For example, some laws may
require a person using the remote
start to have the vehicle in view when doing so. Check local
regulations for any requirements on
remote starting of vehicles.
Do not use the remote start feature
if the vehicle is low on fuel. The
vehicle could run out of fuel.
If the vehicle has the remote start
feature, the RKE transmitter range
may be less while the vehicle is
running.
Other conditions can affect the
performance of the transmitter. See
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System
028.

function along with the inside
temperature setting. The outside
temperature is displayed on the
instrument cluster.
((On/Off) :Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to turn the climate
control system on or off.
The climate control system will also
turn on if the defrost, AUTO, or air
conditioning buttons are pressed.
Automatic Operation
AUTO (Automatic) : The system
automatically controls the inside
temperature, the air delivery, and
the fan speed.
To use automatic mode:
1. Press the AUTO button. When AUTO is selected, the
current temperature(s) is
displayed and the AUTO
indicator light is on.
When AUTO is selected, the
air conditioning and air inlet are
automatically controlled. The
air conditioning runs when the
outside temperature is over 4 °
C (40 °F). The system is automatically set to outside air,
unless it is hot outside and
then the air inlet changes to
recirculation mode to help
quickly cool the vehicle. The
recirculation indicator light will
come on.
2. Set the temperature for the driver and passenger.
To find a comfortable setting,
start with a 22 °C (73 °F)
temperature setting and allow
about 20 minutes for the
system to regulate. Use the
driver side or passenger side
temperature control to adjust
the temperature setting as
necessary. The system will
remain at the selected setting.
Choosing the warmest or
coolest temperatures does not
cause the vehicle to heat or
cool more quickly.
To avoid blowing cold air in
cold weather, the system
delays turning on the fan until
warm air is available. Turn the
fan knob to override this delay
and select the fan speed. Temperature Control
The driver and passenger side
temperature controls are used to
adjust the temperature of the air
coming through the system. The
temperature can be adjusted even if
the system is turned off since
outside air still enters the vehicle,
unless the recirculation mode is
selected. See
“Recirculation” later in
this section.
Driver Side Temperature
Control : Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or
decrease the driver side
temperature. The driver side
temperature display will show the
temperature setting.
Passenger Side Temperature
Control : Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or
decrease the passenger side
temperature. The passenger side
display will show the temperature
setting.
SYNC (Synchronized
Temperature) : Press to set the
passenger temperature to match the
driver temperature setting.

180 Climate Controls
The interior temperature sensor, on
the instrument panel to the right of
the steering column, measures the
temperature of the air inside the
vehicle.
There is also an exterior
temperature sensor behind the front
grille. This sensor reads the outside
air temperature and helps maintain
the temperature inside the vehicle.
Any cover on the front of the vehicle
could cause a false reading in the
displayed temperature.
The climate control system uses the
information from these sensors to
maintain comfort settings by
adjusting the temperature, fanspeed, and air delivery mode. The
system may also supply cooler air to
the side of the vehicle facing the
sun. The recirculation mode will also
be used as needed to maintain cool
outlet temperatures.
