PANEL MODE
Press this button on the touchscreen to
change the air distribution mode to Panel
Mode. In Panel Mode, air comes from the
outlets in the headliner. Each of these
outlets can be individually adjusted to direct the
flow of air. Moving the air vanes of the outlets to
one side will shut off the airflow.
BI-LEVEL MODE
Press this button on the touchscreen to
change the air distribution mode to
Bi-Level Mode. In Bi-Level Mode, air
comes from both the headliner outlets
and the floor outlets.
NOTE:Bi-Level mode is designed under comfort condi -
tions to provide cooler air out of the panel outlets
and warmer air from the floor outlets.
FLOOR MODE
Press this button on the touchscreen to
change the air distribution mode to Floor
Mode. In Floor Mode, air comes from the
floor outlets.

Rear Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
— If Equipped
The rear Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
system has floor air outlets underneath the
passengers’ seats, and overhead outlets at each
outboard rear seating position. The system
provides heated air through the floor outlets or
cool, dehumidified air through the headliner
outlets.
Rear second row occupants can only adjust the
rear ATC control when the Rear Temperature Lock
button is turned off.
The rear ATC system is located in the headliner, on
the passenger side of the vehicle.

present. Recirculation can be used in all modes
except for Defrost. Recirculation may be
unavailable (button on the touchscreen greyed
out) if conditions exist that could create fogging on
the inside of the windshield. The A/C (Air
Conditioning) can be deselected manually without
disturbing the mode control selection. Continuous
use of the Recirculation mode may make the
inside air stuffy and window fogging may occur.
Extended use of this mode is not recommended.

everyone comfortable while you keep moving
ahead. (If vehicle is equipped with climate control.)
Push the VR button on the steering wheel. After the
beep, say one of the following commands:
“Set driver temperature to 70 degrees”
“Set passenger temperature to 70 degrees”
Did you know: Voice Command for Climate may

your vehicle. Voice Command will not work to
adjust the heated seats or steering wheel if
equipped.
OPERATING TIPS
NOTE:Refer to the chart at the end of this section for
suggested control settings for various weather
conditions.
Summer Operation
The engine cooling system must be protected with
a high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper
corrosion protection and to protect against engine
overheating. OAT coolant (conforming to
MS.90032) is recommended
Úpage 326.
Winter Operation
To ensure the best possible heater and defroster
performance, make sure the engine cooling
system is functioning properly and the proper
amount, type, and concentration of coolant is used
Úpage 326. Use of the air Recirculation mode
during Winter months is not recommended,
because it may cause window fogging.
Vacation/Storage
For information on maintaining the Climate Control
system when the vehicle is being stored for an
extended period of time, see
Úpage 319.
Window Fogging
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild,
rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear the
windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and increase
the front blower speed. Do not use the
Recirculation mode without A/C (Air Conditioning)
for long periods, as fogging may occur.
Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of
the windshield, is free of obstructions such as
leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may
reduce airflow, and if they enter the air distribution
box, they could plug the water drains. In Winter
months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice,
slush, and snow.
Cabin Air Filter
The Climate Control system filters out dust and
pollen from the air. Contact an authorized dealer to
service your cabin air filter, and to have it replaced
when needed.
