amount and distribution of the air flow
automatically and adjusts them according
to the driving and weather conditions.

on the auto mode.
The system in your vehicle is dual-zone
automatic climate control. When the
system is in mono mode, all the
temperature zones are linked to the
driver's zone. When you switch mono
mode off, the dual-zone system allows
you to set different temperatures for the
driver's and front passenger's side. Note:Avoid adjusting the settings when
the vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold. The automatic climate controladjusts to the current circumstancesautomatically. For the system to functionproperly, the side and centre vents shouldbe fully open.
Note:The sunload sensor is located on
top of the instrument panel. Do not cover the sensor with any objects.
Note:At low outside temperatures, when
the system is in auto mode, the air stream will be directed to the windscreen and theside windows as long as the engine iscold.
