Climate Control System
Using Automatic Climate Control

2. Adjust the interior temperature using the dr iver’s side or passenger’s side control
dial.

fresh air mode in normal situations.
1 Using Automatic Climate Control
If any buttons are presse d while using the climate
control system in auto, the function of the button
that was pressed will take priority.
