If you operate the switches often
during a short period of time, the system
might become inoperable for a certain time
to prevent damage due to overheating.

BLIND SPOT MONITOR
Blind spot information system
(BLIS)
WARNINGS
The system is not designed to
prevent contact with other vehicles
or objects. The system only provides
a warning to assist you in detecting
vehicles in the blind spot zones. The
system will not detect obstacles,
pedestrians, motorcyclists or cyclists. Do not use the system as a
replacement for using the side and
rear view mirrors, and looking over
your shoulder before changing lanes. The
system is not a replacement for careful
driving and is only to be used as an aid. The system is a convenience feature that
aids the driver in detecting vehicles that
may have entered the blind spot zone (A).
The detection area is on both sides of the
vehicle extending rearwards from the
exterior mirrors to approximately 3 metres
(10 feet) beyond the bumper. The system
will alert you if certain vehicles enter the
blind spot zone whilst driving.
Using the system
The system displays a yellow indicator
located in the exterior mirrors.
Note:
Both indicators will illuminate briefly
when you switch the ignition on to confirm
that the system is operational.

Outside air
Keep the air intakes forward of the
windscreen free from obstruction (snow,
leaves etc.) to allow the climate control
system to function effectively.
Recirculated air
CAUTION
Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to mist up. If the
windows mist up, follow the settings
for defrosting and demisting the
windscreen. The air currently in the passenger
compartment will be recirculated. Outside
air will not enter the vehicle.
Heating
Heating performance depends on the
temperature of the engine coolant.
Air conditioning
Note:
The air conditioning operates only
when the temperature is above 4°C (39°F).
Note: If you use the air conditioning, the
fuel consumption of your vehicle will be
higher.
Air is directed through the evaporator
where it is cooled. Humidity is extracted
from the air to help keep the windows free
of mist. The resulting condensation is
directed to the outside of the vehicle and
it is therefore normal if you see a small
pool of water under your vehicle.
General information on controlling
the interior climate
Fully close all the windows. Warming the interior
Direct the air towards your feet. In cold or
humid weather conditions, direct some of
the air towards the windscreen and the
door windows.
Cooling the interior
Direct the air towards your face.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Setting the temperature
You can set the temperature between
15.5°C (60°F) and 29.5°C (85°F) in steps
of 0.5°C (1°F). In position LO, 15°C (59°F),
the system will switch to permanent
cooling. In position HI, 30°C (86°F), the
system will switch to permanent heating.
Note:
If either position LO or HI is selected,
the system will not regulate a stable
temperature.
Mono mode
In mono mode, the temperature settings
for both the driver ’s and passenger ’s side
are linked. If you adjust the temperature
using the rotary control on the driver ’s side,
the settings will be adjusted to the same
setting on the passenger ’s side. In mono
mode, MONO appears in the display.
To switch mono mode off
Select a temperature for the passenger ’s
side with the rotary control on the
passenger ’s side. Mono mode will switch
off and MONO disappears from the
display. The temperature for the driver ’s
side will remain unchanged. You can now
adjust the driver and passenger side
temperatures independently of each
another. The temperature settings for each
side are shown in the display. You can set
a temperature difference of up to 4°C
(8°F).
Note: If you set a temperature difference
of greater than 4°C (8°F), the temperature
on the other side will be adjusted so that
the difference remains 4°C (8°F). Note:
If you set one of the sides to HI or LO,
both sides will be set to HI or LO.
To switch mono mode back on To switch mono mode back on,
press the MONO button.
MONO reappears in the display
and the passenger ’s side temperature will
be adjusted to the driver ’s side
temperature.
Blower Use the buttons to adjust the
blower speed.
The blower setting is indicated
in the display.
To return to auto mode, press the AUTO
button.
