Air conditioning: Press the button to switch the air conditioning on or off. Air  
conditioning cools your vehicle using outside air. To improve air conditioning  
when starting your vehicle, drive with the windows slightly open for two to three  
minutes.  
Recirculated air: Press the button to switch between outside air and  
recirculated air. The air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates.  
This can reduce the time needed to cool the interior and reduce unwanted odors  
from entering your vehicle.

HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE  
INTERIOR CLIMATE  
General Hints  
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air may  
cause the windows to fog up.  
Note: A small amount of air may be felt  
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.

You can set the temperature between 61°F  
(16°C) and 82°F (28°C). In position low,  
the system switches to permanent cooling.  
In position high, the system switches to  
permanent heating.  
Note: Remove any snow, ice or leaves from  
the air intake area at the base of the  
windshield.  
Note: If you select either position low or  
high, the system will not regulate a stable  
temperature.

Manual Climate Control  
Note: When the system is switched off,  
outside air is prevented from entering your  
vehicle.  
Note: To reduce fogging of the windshield  
during humid weather, adjust the air  
distribution control to the windshield air  
vents position. Increase the temperature  
and fan speed to improve clearing, if  
required.  
Note: When you select AUTO mode and  
the interior and exterior temperatures are  
high, the system automatically selects  
recirculated air to maximize cooling of the  
interior. When the desired air temperature  
is reached, the system automatically selects  
outside air.  
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: When you select windshield  
defrosting and defogging, the instrument  
panel and footwell level functions  
automatically switch off and air conditioning  
switches on. Outside air flows into your  
vehicle.  
Note: At low ambient temperatures with  
AUTO selected, the air stream is directed  
toward the windshield and side windows  
for as long as the engine remains cold.
