Climate Control Functions
Air Conditioning (A/C)
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the
operator to manually activate or deactivate the
air conditioning system. When in A/C mode with
the ATC set to a cool temperature, dehumidified
air flows through the air outlets. If Economy
mode is desired, push the A/C button to turn off
the A/C mode in the Automatic Temperature
Control (ATC) display and deactivate the A/C
system.
NOTE:

If the system is in Mix or Defrost Mode, the A/C
can be turned off, but the A/C system shall
remain active to prevent fogging of the
windows.

If not operating in AUTO mode, the system
will not automatically sense the presence of
fog, mist or ice on the windshield. Defrost
Mode must be manually selected to clear the
windshield and side glass.
If fog or mist appears on the windshield or
side glass, select Defrost Mode and adjust
blower speed if needed.
Recirculation For Automatic Temperature
Control
When outside air contains smoke, odors, or
high humidity, or if rapid cooling is desired, you
may wish to recirculate interior air by pressing
the Recirculation control button. The
recirculation indicator will illuminate when this
button is selected. Press the button a second
time to turn off the Recirculation mode and
allow outside air into the vehicle.
NOTE:
In cold weather, use of recirculation mode may
lead to excessive window fogging. The recircula-
tion feature may be unavailable (button on the
touchscreen greyed out) if conditions exist that
could create fogging on the inside of the wind-
shield. On systems with Manual Climate
Controls, the Recirculation mode is not allowed
in Defrost Mode to improve window clearing
operation. Recirculation will be disabled auto -
matically if this mode is selected. Attempting to
use Recirculation while in this mode will cause
the LED in the control button to blink and then
turn off.
Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) — If
Equipped
Automatic Operation

1. Push the AUTO button on the faceplate, or the AUTO button on the touchscreen on the

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.
