If any buttons are pressed while using the climate
control system in auto, the function of the button
that was pressed will take priority.

unrelated to the button that was pressed will be
controlled automatically.

fan may not start immediately when the AUTO
button is pressed.
If the interior is very warm, you can cool it down
more rapidly by partially opening the windows,
turning the system on auto, and setting the
temperature to low. Change the fresh mode to
recirculation mode until the temperature cools down.

limit, Lo or Hi is displayed.
Pressing the button switches the climate
control system between on and off. When turned on,
