This displays an estimate of approximately
how far you can drive with the fuel
remaining in your tank under normal driving
conditions. Remember to turn the ignition
off when refueling to allow this feature to
correctly detect the added fuel.
Distance to empty is calculated using a
running average fuel economy, which is
based on your recent driving history of 500
miles (800 km). This value is not the same as the average
fuel economy display. The running average
fuel economy is re-initialized to a factory
default value if the battery is disconnected.
XX.X AVG MPG (L/100km)
Average fuel economy displays your
average fuel economy in miles/gallon or
liters/100 km.
MPG (L/km)
Displays the instantaneous fuel economy
as a bar graph. Your vehicle must be
moving to calculate instantaneous fuel
economy. Instantaneous fuel economy
cannot be reset.
TIMER
Displays the trip elapsed drive time. Press
and release RESET to pause the timer.
Press and hold RESET to reset the timer.

A/C: Press to turn air conditioning off and on. Air conditioning cools the vehicle
using outside air. To improve air conditioning when starting your vehicle, drive
with the windows slightly open for two to three minutes. Use air conditioning
with recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency. Note:
Air
conditioning turns on automatically in MAX A/C, defrost and floor and defrost
modes.
E
MAX A/C:
Distributes recirculated air through the instrument panel vents to
cool the vehicle. This position is more economical and efficient than normal air
conditioning. When in MAX A/C mode, pressing
MAX A/C returns you to your
previous settings.
F
Recirculated air:
Press to switch between outside air and recirculated air.
When the air currently in the passenger compartment is recirculating, the LED
on the button illuminates. Using recirculated air can reduce the time needed to
cool the interior and reduce unwanted odors from entering your vehicle. Even
when you do not select this button, air may still recirculate in some instances
in order to reduce vehicle warm-up time in cold conditions or to cool down time
G
in hot conditions. Note: Recirculated air engages automatically when you select
MAX A/C
, or turn on manually in any airflow mode except defrost. Note: You
may notice changes in sound between recirculated mode and other airflow
modes. Note:
For better cooling in hot conditions, recirculated air automatically
engages when the air distribution control is in panel or panel and floor modes
and the air conditioning is on. You can switch to fresh air by pressing the
recirculated air button again.
PASS TEMP:
Press to switch between single and dual zone. Turn to increase
or decrease the air temperature on the passenger side of the vehicle.
H
Fan speed control +:
Press to increase the volume of air circulated in your
vehicle.
I
AUTO:
Press to turn on fully automatic operation. Select the desired
temperature using the temperature control. The system automatically
determines fan speed, air distribution, A/C operation, and outside or recirculated
air, to heat or cool the vehicle to maintain the selected temperature.

Note: To reduce fogging of the windshield
during humid weather, adjust the air
distribution control to the windshield air
vents position. Increase the temperature
and fan speed to improve clearing, if
required. Note:
To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats.
Note: Remove any snow, ice or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windshield.

Note:
You may feel a small amount of air
from the floor air vents regardless of the air
distribution setting.
During extreme high ambient temperatures
when idling stationary for extended periods
in gear, it is recommended to run the A/C
in the MAX A/C mode, adjust the blower
fan speed to the lowest setting and put
the vehicle ’s transmission into position P
to continue to receive cool air from your
A/C system.
For maximum cooling performance in
AUTO (automatic climate system) or
panel mode, press
MAX A/C.
For maximum cooling performance in
panel and floor mode:
1. Adjust the temperature control to the coolest setting.
2. Select
A/C and recirculated air to
provide colder airflow.
3. Set the fan to the highest speed initially, and then adjust to maintain
comfort.
To aid in side window defogging and
demisting in cold or humid weather:
1. Select the floor and panel mode.
2. Press
A/C.
3. Adjust the temperature control to maintain comfort.
4. Set the fan speed to the highest setting.
5. Direct the outer instrument panel vents
toward the side windows.
6. To increase airflow to the outer instrument panel vents, close the vents
located in the middle of the instrument
panel. HEATED WINDOWS AND
MIRRORS

(If Equipped)
Note: The engine must be running to use
this feature.
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with a
sliding rear window, the feature still
operates when you open the window.
Press the button to clear the rear window
of thin ice and fog. Press the button again

inside of the rear window. This may
cause damage to the heated grid lines.
Your warranty does not cover this
damage.
Heated Exterior Mirror
(If Equipped)
Note: Do not remove ice from the mirrors
with a scraper or attempt to readjust the
mirror glass that has frozen in place. These
actions could cause damage to the glass

Note: Do not clean the housing or glass of
any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum-based cleaning products.
The heated mirrors remove ice, mist and
fog when you switch on the heated rear
window.
