tion before the Remote Start sequence can be
repeated for a third cycle. All of the following conditions must be met before
the engine will remote start:
Gear Selector in PARK
Doors closed
Hood closed
Liftgate closed
Hazard switch off
Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not pressed)
Battery at an acceptable charge level
PANIC button not pushed
System not disabled from previous Remote
Start event
Vehicle Security Light flashing
Ignition in OFF position

The Climate Control system allows you to regulate
the temperature, air flow, and direction of air
circulating throughout the vehicle. The controls are
located on the touchscreen (if equipped) and on
the instrument panel below the radio.
AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL

ESCRIPTIONS AND FUNCTIONS

Automatic Climate Controls

MAX A/C Setting
MAX A/C sets the system for maximum
cooling performance. Rotate the driver
temperature control adjust knob
counterclockwise for MAX A/C. Both
driver and passenger temperature displays will
show MAX A/C LO. In MAX A/C, the blower speed
and mode position can be adjusted to desired user settings. Pressing other settings will cause the
MAX A/C operation to switch to the selected setting
and MAX A/C to exit.
A/C Button
Push the A/C Control button to change
the current setting. The A/C indicator
illuminates when A/C is on. Pushing the
AUTO control button will cause the A/C
operation to change to AUTO mode and the A/C
indicator will turn off.
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the
operator to manually activate or deactivate the air
conditioning system. When the air conditioning
system is turned on, cool dehumidified air will flow
through the outlets into the cabin. For improved
fuel economy, press the A/C button to turn off the
air conditioning and manually adjust the blower
and airflow mode settings. Also, make sure to
select only Panel, Bi-Level, or Floor modes.
NOTE:If your air conditioning performance seems lower
than expected, check the front of the A/C
condenser (located in front of the radiator), for an
accumulation of dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle
water spray from the front of the radiator and
through the condenser.
SYNC Button
Push the Sync button to toggle the Sync
feature on/off. The Sync indicator
illuminates when Sync is on. Sync
synchronizes the passenger temperature
setting with the driver temperature setting.
Changing the passenger temperature setting while
in Sync mode will automatically exit this feature
and return to the separate management of air
temperatures in the two zones.
Recirculation Button
Press and release this button to change
the system between Recirculation mode
and outside air mode. The Recirculation
indicator illuminates when Recirculation
is on. Recirculation can be used when outside
conditions such as smoke, odors, dust, or high
humidity are present. Recirculation can be used in
all modes. Recirculation may be unavailable if
conditions exist that could create fogging on the
inside of the windshield. 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. Recirculation
mode may automatically adjust to optimize
customer experience for warming, cooling,
dehumidification, etc.
