WARNING
• The air conditioner cooling function op-
erates only when the engine is running.
• Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assistance of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets should
also not be left alone. They could acci-
dentally injure themselves or others
through inadvertent operation of the
vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to people
or animals.
• Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.

proximately 32°F (0°C) to defog the wind-
shield. The air recirculate mode automatically
turns off, allowing outside air to be drawn
into the passenger compartment to further
improve the defogging performance.
Remote Engine Start with
Intelligent Climate Control (if so
equipped)
Vehicles equipped with automatic climate con-
trols and Remote Engine Start function may go
into automatic heating or cooling mode when
Remote Engine Start is activated depending on

period, the climate control display and buttons
will be inoperable until the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position. In Remote Engine
Start defrosting mode, the rear window de-
froster, heated seat (if so equipped) and heated
steering wheel (if so equipped) may be acti-

signed to operate only when the surface tem-
perature of the steering wheel is below 68°F
(20°C).
If the surface temperature of the steering
wheel is below 68°F (20°C), the system will
heat the steering wheel and cycle off and
on to maintain a temperature above 68°F (20°C). The indicator light will remain on as
long as the system is on.
