Climate Control System^*

Using Automatic Climate Control

The automatic climate control system maintains the interior temperature you select.

The system also selects the proper mix of heated or cooled air that raises or lowers

the interior temperature to your preference as quickly as possible.

1Using Automatic Climate Control

If any button is pressed while in AUTO, the function

of that button takes priority.

The AUTO indicator goes off, but functions of other

buttons pressed are still in auto mode.

To prevent cold air from blowing in from outside, the

fan may operate at low speed for a while after the

AUTO button has been pressed.

more rapidly by partially opening the windows,
