improve cooling performance and efficiency.

Note:

In certain conditions, such as

maximum defrost, the air conditioning
compressor may continue to operate even
though you switch off the air conditioning.

Note:

The A/C LED light may turn on and off

based on the temperature setting or the
current conditions.

Climate Control

Switching Maximum Air Conditioning
On and Off

Press and release the button for
maximum cooling.

The driver and passenger temperatures are
set to LO, recirculated air flows through the
instrument panel air vents, air conditioning
turns on and the blower motor adjusts to the
highest speed.

Switching Maximum Defrost On and
Off

Press and release the button for
maximum defrosting.

The driver and passenger temperatures are
set to HI, air flows through the windshield air
vents, and the blower motor adjusts to the
highest speed.

Note:

Depending on your region, air

conditioning turns on.

You can also use this setting to defog and
clear the windshield of a thin covering of ice.

Note:

To prevent window fogging, you

cannot select recirculated air when
maximum defrost is on.

Note:

The heated rear window also turns on

when you select maximum defrost.

Switching Recirculated Air On and Off

Press and release the button to
switch between outside air and
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 reduce unwanted odors
from entering your vehicle.

Note:

Recirculated air may turn off

automatically, or prevent you from switching
on in all air flow modes except MAX A/C to
reduce the risk of fogging. Recirculation may
also turn on and off automatically in various
air distribution control combinations to
improve heating or cooling efficiency.

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.

Note:

To improve the time to reach a

comfortable temperature in hot weather,
drive with the windows open until you feel
cold air through the air vents.

Climate Control

Automatic Climate Control

Note:

Adjusting the settings when your

vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold is not
necessary. Automatic mode is best
recommended to maintain set temperature.

Note:

The system adjusts to heat or cool the

interior to the temperature you select as
quickly as possible.

Note:

For the system to function efficiently,

the instrument panel and side air vents
should be fully open.

Note:

If you select 

AUTO

 during cold outside

temperatures, the system directs air flow to
the windshield and side window air vents. In
addition, the blower motor may run at a
slower speed until the engine warms up.

Note:

If you select 

AUTO

 during hot

temperatures and the inside of the vehicle
is hot, the system uses recirculated air to
maximize interior cooling. Blower motor
speed may also reduce until the air cools.

WHAT IS THE CABIN AIR FILTER

The cabin air filter improves the quality of air
in your vehicle by trapping dust, pollen and
other particles.

REPLACING THE CABIN AIR FILTER

Replace the filter at regular intervals.   See

Scheduled Maintenance

 (page 579).

The cabin air filter is behind the glove
compartment.

To remove the lower glove compartment and
access the filter:

WHAT IS AUTO AIR REFRESH

 (IF

EQUIPPED)

Auto Air Refresh helps improve or maintain
the quality of air within your vehicle cabin.

HOW DOES AUTO AIR REFRESH
WORK

 (IF EQUIPPED)

Auto Air Refresh uses an outside gases
sensor to automatically adjust the climate
control system to change from outside air to
recirculated air to help reduce the entry of
outside odors into the cabin. It uses a
particulate matter sensor in the cabin to
estimate and provide information about
particulate matter pollution in the cabin. It
also allows you to refresh the cabin air with
outside air on-demand or automatically.
