Manual Climate Controls — If Equipped
The Manual Climate Controls consist of a series of rotary
dials with inner push buttons.1. Blower Control
Rotate this control to regulate the amount of air forced
through the ventilation system in any mode. The blower
speed increases as you move the control clockwise from
the “0” (OFF) position.
2. Temperature Control
Rotate this control to regulate the temperature of the air
inside the passenger compartment. Rotating the dial
counter-clockwise into the blue area of the scale indicates
cooler temperatures, while rotating clockwise into the red
area indicates warmer temperatures. Rotating the Tem-
perature Control all the way counter-clockwise results in
turning on the MAX A/C feature.

Automatic Climate Controls — If Equipped
1. Driver Temperature Control
Provides the driver with independent temperature con-
trol. Rotate the adjustment knob to set desired tempera-
ture shown in the Temperature Display. Rotate fully
counter-clockwise for maximum A/C (LO).2. A/C Button
Push the A/C Control Button to change the current
setting. The indicator illuminates when the A/C is ON.
Pushing the AUTO control button will cause the A/C
operation to change to AUTO mode and the A/C indi-
cator will turn OFF.

Push the MAX Defrost button to change the current
airflow setting to Defrost mode. The indicator illuminates
when this feature is ON. Performing this function will
cause the automatic climate controls to change to manual
mode. The blower speed increases to full (all LEDs ON)
when MAX Defrost mode is selected, the air conditioning
compressor is turned ON (LED ON), both driver and
passenger temperature controls are set to (HI), defrost
mode is selected (LED ON), rear defroster is turned ON
(LED ON) and the air recirculation is turned OFF (LED

OFF). If the MAX Defrost mode is turned OFF, the climate
system will return to the previous setting.
4. Blower Control Indicator LEDs
A total of eight LEDs illuminate to visually indicate
blower speeds.
5. Rear Defrost Button
Push the Rear Defrost button to turn ON the rear window
defroster and the heated outside mirrors (if equipped).
An indicator will illuminate when the rear window
defroster is ON. The rear window defroster automatically
turns OFF after 20 minutes.
6. AUTO Button
Pushing this button will automatically control the inte-
rior cabin temperature by adjusting airflow distribution
and amount. Performing this function will cause the
automatic climate controls to change between manual
mode and automatic modes.7. Passenger Temperature Control
Provides the passenger with independent temperature
control. Rotate the adjustment knob to set desired tem-
perature shown in the Temperature Display.
NOTE:Rotating the Passenger Temperature Control
knob while in Sync mode will automatically exit Sync.
8. Passenger Temperature Display
Rotate the Passenger Temperature Control dial clockwise
or counter-clockwise to adjust the air temperature in the
front right (Passenger Temperature Control) zone of the
passenger compartment. The set temperature is shown
on the display. Turning the control knob completely in
one direction or the other activates theHI(maximum
heating) orLO(maximum cooling) functions shown in
the display, respectively. To deactivate these functions,
turn the temperature knob to the desired temperature.

14. Driver Temperature Display
Rotate the Driver Temperature Control dial clockwise or
counter-clockwise, to adjust the air temperature in the
front left (Driver Temperature Control) zone of the pas-
senger compartment. The set temperature is shown on
the display. Turning the control knob completely in one
direction or the other activates theHI(maximum heat-
ing) orLO(maximum cooling) functions shown in the

Description
The Automatic Dual Zone Climate Control system regu-
lates the air temperatures in the passenger compartment
in two zones: driver side and passenger side.
The system maintains comfort inside the passenger com-
partment and compensates for possible variations in
external climate conditions.The Climate Control system can recognize extremely cold
(or extremely hot) conditions in the passenger compart-
ment and provide optimal management of the system’s
capabilities.
NOTE:The reference temperature is 72° F (22° C) for
optimal comfort management.
The automatically controlled functions are:
•Air temperature at the driver/front passenger side
vents.
•Blower speed (continuous variation of the air flow).
•Compressor engagement (for cooling/dehumidifying
the air).
•Air recirculation.
All these functions can be adjusted manually by operat-
ing the system, selecting one or more functions and
modifying their parameters.
126 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

The system operates automatically to adjust the tempera-
ture, quantity and distribution of the air introduced into
the passenger compartment. It also manages the air
recirculation function and the activation of the air condi-
tioning compressor.
During automatic operation, you can change the set
temperatures, air distribution and blower speed at any
time by using the relevant buttons or knobs: the system
will automatically change the settings to adjust to the
new requirements.
During automatic operation (AUTO), varying the air
flow and/or distribution or pushing the A/C control
button causes the AUTO function LED to turn off and the
system to operate in MANUAL mode.Adjusting The Air Temperature
Rotate the Driver Temperature Control, or the Passenger
Temperature Control, dial clockwise or counter-
clockwise, to adjust the air temperature in the front left
(Driver Temperature Control) or right (Passenger Tem-
perature Control) zone of the passenger compartment.
The set temperatures are shown on the displays.
Push the SYNC button to align the air temperature
between the two zones.
Turn the Passenger Temperature Control knob to return
to the separate management of air temperatures in the
two zones.
Turning the control knobs completely in one direction or
the other activates theHI(maximum heating) orLO
(maximum cooling) functions respectively.
To deactivate these functions, turn the temperature knob
to the desired temperature.

MAX A/C
MAX A/C sets the system for maximum cooling perfor-
mance.
Rotate the driver temperature control adjust knob
counter-clockwise for MAX A/C. Both driver and pas-
senger temperature displays will show MAX A/C LO.
In MAX A/C, the blower speed and mode position can be
adjusted to desired user settings. Pressing other settings
will cause the MAX A/C operation to switch to the
selected setting and MAX A/C to exit.
Rapid Window Demisting (MAX-Defrost function)
Push the MAX-defrost button to activate (LED on) the
windshield and side window demisting function.
The Climate Control system carries out the following
operations:
•Turns on the air conditioning compressor when envi-
ronmental conditions are suitable.•Turns air recirculation off.
•Sets blower fan to the maximum speed.
•Directs air flow to windshield and front side window
diffusers.
•Activates the heated rear window defrost.
•Activates the heated windshield (if equipped).
•Displays the fan speed (Blower Control Indicator LED
illuminated).
When the function is activated, the AUTO button LED
turns off. With the function activated, the only possible
manual adjustments are pushing the A/C control button,
adjusting the fan speed and turning the heated rear
window off.
When the Recirculation Control or AUTO buttons are
pushed, the Climate Control system will deactivate the
Front Defrost (MAX-DEF) function.
