F.A/C:Press to turn air conditioning off and on. Air conditioning cools the
vehicle using outside air. To improve air conditioning when starting your
vehicle, drive with the windows slightly open for two to three minutes.
Use A/C with recirculated air to improve cooling performance and
efficiency.
Note:A/C turns on automatically in MAX A/C, Defrost and Floor/Defrost.
G.Power:Press to turn the system off and on. When the system is off,
outside air cannot enter the vehicle.
H.AUTO:Press to turn on fully automatic operation. Select the desired
temperature using the temperature control. The system automatically
determines fan speed, air distribution, A/C operation, and outside or
recirculated air, to heat or cool the vehicle to maintain the selected
temperature.
I.Rear defrost:Turns the heated windows and mirrors off and on.
SeeHeated windows and mirrorslater in this chapter for more
information. If your vehicle is equipped with heated mirrors, this button
turns them on also.
J.Defrost:Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents and
demister vents. You can also use this setting to defog and clear the
windshield of a thin covering of ice.
REAR PASSENGER CLIMATE CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
Depending on your vehicle equipment, you may not have all the features
shown below.
A.Fan control:Turn to increase or decrease the fan speed or choose
the following:

You may notice a reduction in the vehicle’s speed caused by reduced
engine power. Your vehicle has been designed to enter this mode if
certain high temperature/high load conditions take place in order to
manage the engine’s fluid temperatures. The amount of speed reduction
will depend on the vehicle loading, towing, grade, ambient temperature,
and other factors. If this occurs, there is no need to pull off the road.
The vehicle can continue to be driven while this message is active.
The air conditioning may also cycle on and off during severe operating
conditions to protect overheating of the engine. When the engine coolant
temperature decreases to a more normal operating temperature, the air
conditioning will turn on once again.
If you notice any of the following:
•
the engine coolant temperature gauge moves fully into the red (hot) area
•the coolant temperature warning light illuminates
•the service engine soon indicator illuminates
1. Pull off the road as soon as safely possible and place the vehicle in
P (Park).
2. Leave the engine running until the coolant temperature gauge needle
moves away from the H range. After several minutes, if this does not
happen, follow the remaining steps.
3. Turn the engine off and wait for it to cool before checking the coolant
level.
WARNING:Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the
engine is running or hot.
4. If the coolant level is normal, you may restart your engine and
continue on.
5. If the coolant is low, add coolant, restart the engine and take your
vehicle to an authorized dealer. SeeAdding engine coolantin this
chapter for more information.
Refer to fail-safe cooling for additional information.
What You Should Know About Fail-Safe Cooling
If the engine coolant supply is depleted, this feature allows the vehicle to
be driven temporarily before incremental component damage is incurred.
The fail-safe distance depends on ambient temperatures, vehicle load and
terrain.

How Fail-Safe Cooling Works
If the engine begins to overheat, the engine coolant temperature gauge
will move to the red (hot) area and:
The coolant temperature warning light will illuminate.
The service engine soon indicator will illuminate.
If the engine reaches a preset over-temperature condition, the engine
will automatically switch to alternating cylinder operation. Each disabled
cylinder acts as an air pump and cools the engine.
When this occurs the vehicle will still operate. However:
•The engine power will be limited.
•The air conditioning system will be disabled.
Continued operation will increase the engine temperature and the engine
will completely shut down, causing steering and braking effort to
increase.
Once the engine temperature cools, the engine can be restarted. Take
your vehicle to an authorized dealer as soon as possible to minimize
engine damage.
When Fail-Safe Mode is Activated
WARNING:Fail-safe mode is for use during emergencies only.
Operate the vehicle in fail-safe mode only as long as necessary to
bring the vehicle to rest in a safe location and seek immediate repairs.
When in fail-safe mode, the vehicle will have limited power, will not be
able to maintain high-speed operation, and may completely shut down
without warning, potentially losing engine power, power steering assist,
and power brake assist, which may increase the possibility of a crash
resulting in serious injury.
WARNING:Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the
engine is running or hot.

•Touch+or–to adjust the temperature.
•To adjust fan speed, touch+or–next to the fan icon.
•TouchAutoto engage automatic rear climate operation. The system
determines fan speed and airflow direction to maintain the set
temperature.
•TouchRearagain to close the rear controls. Closing the rear climate
control functions does not affect their current settings.
E.Recirculated air:Touch to turn the recirculated air on or off which:
•May reduce the amount of time needed to cool down the interior.
•May help reduce odors from reaching the interior.
•Engages automatically when MAX A/C is selected.
•May be engaged manually in any airflow mode except defrost.
•May turn off in all airflow modes except MAX A/C to reduce fog
potential.
F.MAX A/C:Touch to cool your vehicle with recirculated air. Touch
again for normal A/C operation. MAX A/C:
•Distributes air through instrument panel vents.
•Is more economical and efficient than normal A/C mode.
•May help reduce odors from entering your vehicle.
G.A/C:Touch to turn the air conditioning on or off.
•Use with recirculated air to improve cooling performance and
efficiency.
•Engages automatically in MAX A/C, defrost and floor/defrost.
H.AUTO:Touch to engage automatic operation, then set the
temperature using the temperature control. The system automatically
controls:
•Fan speed
•Airflow distribution
•A/Conoroff
•Outside or recirculated air.
I.Rear defroster:Touch to turn the rear window defroster and heated
mirrors.
J.Defrost:Touch to clear the windshield of fog and thin ice. Touch
again to return to the previous airflow selection. When on, defrost:
•Provides outside air to reduce window fogging.
•Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents and demister
vents.
