Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) *
The Interior Air Quality System uses a multifilter and an air quality sensor to remove gases, parti-cles and other contaminants from the air enter-ing the passenger compartment.
The IAQS air quality sensor monitors increased levels of contaminants in the outside air and ifcontaminants are detected, the air intake closesand the air inside the passenger compartment isrecirculated, i.e., no outside air enters the vehicle.The filter also cleans recirculated passengercompartment air.
NOTE
• The air quality sensor should always be engaged in order to obtain the best air inthe passenger compartment.
• Recirculation is limited in cold weather toavoid fogging.
• If the insides of the windows start fog-ging, disengage the air quality sensor.Use the defroster function to increaseairflow to the front, side, and rear win-dows.
Activating/deactivating IAQSTo change the setting for IAQS activation/deacti- vation:
1. In the center display's Settings view, go to
Climate. 2. Activate/deactivate IAQS by selecting/dese-
lecting the
Air Quality Sensor box.

CAUTION
• When starting in cold weather, the auto- matic transmission may shift up at slightlyhigher engine speeds than normal untilthe automatic transmission fluid reachesnormal operating temperature.
• Do not race a cold engine immediatelyafter starting. Oil flow may not reachsome lubrication points fast enough toprevent engine damage.
• The engine should be idling when youmove the gear selector. Never accelerateuntil after you feel the transmissionengage. Accelerating immediately afterselecting a gear will cause harsh engage-ment and premature transmission wear.
• Selecting
P or N when idling at a stand-
still for prolonged periods of time will helpprevent overheating of the automatictransmission fluid.
