Temperature Control
Temperature Control regulates the temperature of
the air forced through the climate system.
The temperature increases as you press
the red arrow button on the faceplate.
The temperature decreases as you press
the blue arrow button on the faceplate. You can also adjust the temperature using the
sliding temperature bar on the touchscreen.
Slide the bar upward into the red to increase the
temperature, and slide it downward into the blue to
decrease the temperature.
Blower Control
Blower Control regulates the amount of
air forced through the climate system.
There are seven blower speeds available.
The blower speed increases as you press
the up arrow above the blower control symbol.
The blower speed decreases as you press the
down arrow below the blower control symbol.

You can also adjust the blower speed on the
touchscreen by selecting a speed on the blower bar.

Mode Control

Select Mode by pressing one of the Mode
buttons on the touchscreen, or the faceplate,
to change the airflow distribution mode.
Pushing this button will cycle through the five
mode combinations in order: Face, Face/Feet, Feet,
Windshield/Feet, Windshield. The cycle will repeat if
the button is continually pushed.

NOTE:The distribution modes on the climate control
screen will also illuminate when a selection is
made using the button on the instrument panel.
Panel Mode

Air comes from the outlets in the instrument
panel. Each of these outlets can be
individually adjusted to direct the flow of air.
The air vents out of the center outlets and
outboard outlets can be moved up and down or side to
side to regulate airflow direction. Move the vent to the
furthermost sides to close the vent.

Bi-Level Mode
Air comes from the instrument panel
outlets and floor outlets. A slight amount
of air is directed through the defrost and
side window demister outlets.
NOTE:Bi-Level mode is designed under comfort condi -
tions to provide cooler air out of the panel outlets
and warmer air from the floor outlets.
Floor Mode

Air comes from the floor outlets. A slight
amount of air is directed through the defrost
and side window demister outlets.

CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause
damage to the heating elements:
Use care when washing the inside of the rear
window. Do not use abrasive window cleaners
on the interior surface of the window. Use a
soft cloth and a mild washing solution, wiping
parallel to the heating elements. Labels can
be peeled off after soaking with warm water.
Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or
abrasive window cleaners on the interior
surface of the window.

Keep all objects a safe distance from the window.

(Continued)
NOTE:Do not connect devices with power higher than
180 W to the socket. Do not damage the socket by
using unsuitable adapters.
Power Outlet Fuses — Under Hood
POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt inverter outlet
located on the instrument panel, to the right of
the radio, to convert DC current to AC current.
This outlet can power cellular phones, electronics
and other low power devices requiring power up to
150 Watts. Certain game consoles will exceed this
power limit, as will most power tools.
Power Inverter Location

To turn on the power inverter outlet, simply plug in
the device. The outlet automatically turns off when
the device is unplugged.
1 — F14 Fuse 20 Amp Yellow Front Power Outlet
2 — F09 Fuse 15 Amp Blue Rear Power Outlet
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Only devices designed for use in this type of
outlet should be inserted into any 12 Volt
outlet.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use and while driving
the vehicle.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!

Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle's battery, even when not in
use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent the engine from starting.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these intermit
-
tently and with greater caution.

After the use of high power draw accessories,
or long periods of the vehicle not being started
(with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle
must be driven a sufficient length of time to
allow the generator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
WARNING!

22_VF_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 46

48GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
The wireless charging pad is equipped with an
anti-slip mat to hold your mobile phone in place,
and an LED indicator light.
LED Indicator Status:
NOTE:Using a phone case may interfere with wireless
charging.
No Light: Charging pad is idle or searching for a
device.
Blue Light: Device is detected, and is charging.
Red Light/Flashing: Internal error, or foreign
object is detected.
With a compatible mobile phone placed on the
charging pad, when the ignition is switched to the
OFF position, a phone reminder message will
appear on the instrument cluster to warn the
customer.
WINDOWS
POWER WINDOWS
The control on the left front door panel has
switches that control all power windows. There is a
single opening and closing switch on the front
passenger door for passenger window control.

Power Window Switches

NOTE:The Key Off Power Delay feature will allow the
power windows to operate for up to three minutes
after the ignition is placed in the OFF position.
This feature is canceled when either front door is
opened.
Automatic Window Features
Auto-Down Feature — If Equipped
The window switches may be equipped with an
Auto-Down feature. Push the window switch for
half a second, release, and the window will go
down automatically.
To stop the window from going all the way down
during the auto-down operation, pull up or push
down on the switch briefly.
To open the window part way, lift the window
switch to the detent for less than half a second and
release it to stop the window.
CAUTION!
The key fob should not be placed on the
charging pad or within 6 inches (15 cm) of it.
Doing so can cause excessive heat buildup and
damage to the fob. Placing the fob in close
proximity of the charging pad blocks the fob from
being detected by the vehicle and prevents the
vehicle from starting.
WARNING!

Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing chil -
dren to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous
for a number of reasons. A child or others could
be seriously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the gear selector.

Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle
or in a location accessible to children. A child
could operate power windows, other controls,
or move the vehicle.
