or fan controls are adjusted, the
climate control display shows that
function along with the inside
temperature setting. The outside
temperature is displayed on the
instrument cluster.
(:Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to turn the climate
control system on or off.
The climate control system will also
turn on if the defrost, AUTO, or air
conditioning buttons are pressed.
Automatic Operation
The system automatically controls
the fan speed, air delivery, air
conditioning, and recirculation in
order to heat or cool the vehicle to
the desired temperature.
When AUTO is lit, all four functions
operate automatically. Each function
can also be manually set and the
setting is displayed. Functions not
manually set will continue to be
automatically controlled, even if the
AUTO indicator is not lit. For automatic operation:
1. Press AUTO.
When AUTO is selected, the
current temperature(s) is
displayed and the AUTO
indicator light is on.
When AUTO is selected, the
air conditioning and air inlet are
automatically controlled. The
air conditioning runs when the
outside temperature is over 4 °
C (40 °F). The system is
automatically set to outside air,
unless it is hot outside and
then the air inlet changes to
recirculation mode to help
quickly cool the vehicle. The
recirculation indicator light will
come on.
2. Set the temperature for the driver and passenger.
To find a comfortable setting,
start with a 22 °C (73 °F)
temperature setting and allow
about 20 minutes for the
system to regulate. Use the
driver side or passenger side
temperature control to adjust the temperature setting as
necessary. The system will
remain at the selected setting.

cause the vehicle to heat or
cool more quickly.

cold weather, the system
delays turning on the fan until
warm air is available. Turn the
fan knob to override this delay
and select the fan speed.
Temperature Control
The driver and passenger side
temperature controls are used to
adjust the temperature of the air
coming through the system. The
temperature can be adjusted even if
the system is turned off since
outside air still enters the vehicle,
unless the recirculation mode is
selected. See “Recirculation” later in
this section.
