Note: The passenger side temperature and the Dual indicator automatically turn on when the passenger is adjusting their t\
emperature
control.
Fan speed: Touch + or - to increase or decrease the volume of air circulated in your vehicle.
C
Note: When the system is controlling the fan speed automatically, all the fan speed indicators turn off.
Recirculated air: Touch the button to switch between outside air and recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, 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 reduce unwanted odors from entering your vehicle.
D
Note: Recirculated air may turn off automatically (or be prevented from turnin\
g on) in all airflow modes except Max A/C to reduce
risk of fogging. Recirculated air may also turn on and off automatically in Panel or Panel and Floor airflow modes during hot weather
in order to improve cooling efficiency.
Max A/C: Touch the button to maximize cooling. Recirculated air flows through the instrument panel vents, air conditioni\
ng
automatically turns on, and the fan automatically adjusts to the highest\
speed.
E
A/C: Touch the button to switch air conditioning compressor on or off. Use air conditioning with recirculated air to improve coolin g
performance and efficiency.
F
Note: In certain conditions (such as when using Max Defrost), the air condi\
tioning compressor may continue to operate even after
you switch off the air conditioning with the A/C button.
Auto: Touch the button to switch on automatic operation. Select the desired tem\
perature using the temperature control. The system
adjusts fan speed, air distribution, air conditioning operation, and sel\
ects outside air or recirculated air to heat or cool the vehicle
in order to maintain the desired temperature. You can also use the Auto button to switch off dual zone operation by touching and
holding the button for more than two seconds.
G
Heated rear window: Turns the heated rear window on and off. See Heated Windows and Mirrors (page 138).
