HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE -
VEHICLES WITH: AUTOMATIC
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
General Hints
Do not place objects under the front seats
as this may interfere with directing air to
the rear seats.
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 footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.
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: Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: Use air conditioning with recirculated
air to improve cooling performance and
efficiency.
Note: When you select automatic mode
and the outside temperature is low and the
engine is cold, air is directed to the
windshield and the outer instrument panel
air vents.
Note: When you select automatic mode
and the outside temperature and in-vehicle
temperature is high, the system selects
recirculated air to maximize cooling. When
the required temperature is reached,
recirculated air turns off.
Note: When you select maximum defrost,
air conditioning turns on and air is directed
to the windshield air vents. Recommended Settings for
Heating
•
Press AUTO.
• Select the required temperature.
Note: Adjusting the settings when your
vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold is
not necessary. The system automatically
adjusts to heat or cool the interior to your
selected temperature as quickly as possible.
For the system to function efficiently, the
instrument panel and side air vents should
be fully open.
Quickly Cooling the Interior
• Press MAX A/C.
Note: To improve the time to reach a
comfortable temperature in hot weather,
drive with the windows open until you feel
cold air through the air vents.
Recommended Settings for
Cooling
• Press AUTO.
• Select the required temperature.
Defogging the Side Windows in
Cold Weather

when it is frozen in place.
Note: Do not clean the mirror housing or
glass with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum-based cleaning products.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air
filter. It is located behind the center
console.
If your vehicle has rear climate control. The
cabin air filter is under the driver seat.
The particulate filtration system reduces
the concentration of airborne particles
such as dust, spores and pollen in the air
supplied to the interior of your vehicle.
Note: Make sure you have a cabin air filter
installed at all times. This prevents foreign
objects from entering the system. Running
the system without a filter in place could
result in degradation or damage to the
system.

HEATED SEATS (If Equipped)
WARNING:
People who are unable
to feel pain to their skin because of
advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes,
spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use,
exhaustion or other physical conditions,
must use caution when using the heated
seat. The heated seat may cause burns
even at low temperatures, especially if
used for long periods of time. Do not place
anything on the seat that may block the
heat, such as a blanket or cushion. This can
cause the heated seat to overheat. Do not
puncture the seat with pins, needles or
other pointed objects. This damages the
heating element and can cause the heated
seat to overheat. An overheated seat may
cause serious personal injury.
Do not do the following:
• Place heavy objects on the seat.
• Operate the heated seat if water or any
other liquid spills on the seat. Allow the
seat to dry thoroughly.
• Operate the heated seats unless the
engine is running. Doing so can cause
the battery to lose charge. Press the heated seat symbol to cycle
through the various heat settings and off.
More indicator lights indicate warmer
settings.

WIRELESS ACCESSORY
CHARGING WARNING: Wireless charging
devices can affect the operation of
implanted medical devices, including
cardiac pacemakers. If you have any
implanted medical devices, we
recommend that you consult with your
physician.
The system supports one wireless charging
compatible device on the charging area.
Note: Devices without built-in Qi standards
for wireless charging require an additional
Qi receiver or sleeve.
Make sure the charging area is clean before
charging a device.
Do not place items with a magnetic strip,
for example passports, parking tickets or
credit cards near the charging area when
charging a device. This could damage the
magnetic strip.
Do not place metal objects, for example
remote controls, coins or keys on or near
the charging area when charging a device.
Metal objects may heat up and degrade
the charging performance. The charging area is below the
audio unit. Place the device with the charging side
down to begin charging. The charging
stops after your device reaches a full
charge.
Note:
Charging time and temperature are
dependent on the device used. The system
stops charging the device if it reaches a high
temperature.
