Climate Control System
Using Automatic Climate Control

The system also selects the proper mix of heated or cooled air that raises or lowers 
the interior temperature to your  preference as quickly as possible.
Use the system when the engine is running.

2. Adjust the interior temperature us ing the temperature control dial.
3. Press the   (ON/OFF)  button to cancel.1Using Automatic Climate Control
If any buttons/icons
* are pressed while using the 
climate control system in auto, the function of the 
button/icon
* that was pressed will take priority.
The  AUTO  indicator will go  off, but functions 
unrelated to the button/icon
* that was pressed will 
be controlled automatically.
To prevent cold air from bl owing in from outside, the 
fan may not start i mmediately when the  AUTO 
button is pressed.
If the interior is very warm, you can cool it down 
more rapidly by partial ly opening the windows, 
turning the system on auto, and setting the 
temperature to low. Change the fresh air mode to 
recirculation mode  until the temperature cools down.
When you set the temperat ure to the lower or upper 
limit,  Lo or  Hi is displayed.
