Stop the vehicle as soon as
possible, switch off the engine and let
cool. See Engine Coolant Check
(page 268).
Engine Oil If it illuminates with the
engine running or when you
are driving, this indicates a
malfunction. Stop your vehicle as
soon as it is safe to do so and switch
the engine off. Check the engine oil

A/C: Press the button to turn on or turn off the air conditioning system.
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.
F
MAX A/C:
Press the button to switch on. Recirculated air is distributed
through the instrument panel air vents, air conditioning is automatically
adjusted to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns to the
full cool position. This re-cooling of the interior is more economical
and efficient.
G
AUTO:
Press the button to switch on. Recirculated air flows through
the instrument panel air vents, air conditioning automatically adjusts
to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns to the full cool
position. This re-cooling of the interior is more economical and efficient.
H
Heated rear window:
Turns the heated rear window on and off. See
Heated Windows and Mirrors (page 128).
I
Defrost:
Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents and
de-mister vents. You can also use this setting to defog and clear the
windshield of a thin covering of ice.
J
HINTS ON CONTROLLING
THE INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated
air may cause the windows to fog up.
Note: You may feel a small amount of
air from the footwell air vents
regardless of the air distribution setting.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up
inside your vehicle, do not drive with
the system switched off or with
recirculated air always switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the
front seats as this may interfere with
the airflow to the rear seats. Note:
Remove any snow, ice or leaves
from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
Automatic Climate Control
Note: Do not adjust the settings when
your vehicle interior is extremely hot or
cold. The system automatically adjusts
to the previously stored settings. For
the system to function efficiently, the
instrument panel and side air vents
should be fully open.
Note: At low ambient temperatures
with AUTO selected, the system directs
air toward the windshield and side
windows for as long as the engine
remains cold.
Note: When you switch the system off,
outside air cannot enter your vehicle.

Climate Control

Switching Cruise Control Off
Note:
You will erase the set speed if
you switch the system off.
Press and release OFF or switch the
ignition off.
USING ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL
(IF EQUIPPED) WARNINGS
Always pay close attention to
changing road conditions,
especially when using adaptive cruise
control. Adaptive cruise control
cannot replace attentive driving.
Failing to follow any of the warnings
below or failing to pay attention to the
road may result in a collision, serious
injury or death. Adaptive cruise control is not a
collision warning or avoidance
system. Adaptive cruise control will not
detect stationary or slow moving
vehicles below 6 mph (10 km/h). Adaptive cruise control will not
detect pedestrians or objects in
the roadway. Adaptive cruise control will not
detect oncoming vehicles in the
same lane. Do not use the adaptive cruise
control when entering or leaving
a highway, in heavy traffic or on roads
that are winding, slippery or unpaved. WARNINGS
Do not use in poor visibility,
specifically fog, rain, spray or
snow. Note:
It is your responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely and be in control of
the vehicle at all times.
The system is designed to
automatically adjust your speed to
maintain a proper distance between
you and the vehicle in front of you in
the same lane. You can select from
one of four gap settings. The controls for using your cruise
control are located on the steering
wheel.
Switching the System On
Press and release
ON.
The information display will
show the grey indicator light.

Staying too close to the lane marking
Driving at high speeds in curves
Previous feature activation happened within the last one second
Ambiguous lane markings (mainly in construction zones)
Rapid transition from light to dark or vice versa Why is the feature not available (line markings are gray) when I can see the
lane markings on the road?
Sudden offset in lane markings
ABS or AdvanceTrac activation
Camera blockage due to dirt, grime, fog, frost or water on the windshield
Too close to the vehicle in front of you
Transitioning between no lane markings to lane markings or vice versa
Standing water on the road
Faint lane markings (partial yellow lane markings on concrete roads)

Driving Aids

Power: Touch to turn the climate control system on and off. When
the system is off, outside air is prevented from entering the vehicle.
A
Passenger settings:
Touch DUAL to switch passenger side
temperature controls on and off. Touch the + and - to adjust the
temperature. Touch the heated seat icon to control the heated seat
(if equipped). Touch the cooled seat icon to control the cooled seat
(if equipped).
B
Fan speed:
Touch + or - to increase or decrease the volume of air
circulated in your vehicle.
C
Recirculated air: Touch the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When recirculated air is selected, the button illuminates
and the air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates. This
may reduce the time needed to cool the interior (when used with A/C)
and may also reduce unwanted odors from entering your vehicle.
Recirculated air may turn off automatically in all airflow modes except
MAX A/C to reduce the possibility of fogging.
D
MAX A/C:
Touch to switch on. Recirculated air is distributed through
the instrument panel air vents, air conditioning is automatically adjusted
to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns to the full cool
position. This re-cooling of the interior is more economical and efficient.
E
A/C:
Touch to turn air conditioning on or off. 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.
F
AUTO:
Touch to turn on fully automatic operation. Select the desired
temperature using the temperature control. The system automatically
adjusts fan speed, air distribution, A/C operation, and outside or
recirculated air, to heat or cool the vehicle to maintain the selected
temperature.
G
Rear defroster:
Touch to turn the rear window defroster and heated
mirrors (if equipped).
