Description
The Automatic Dual Zone Climate
Control System adjusts the temperature
and air distribution independently
between the driver and passenger.
The system maintains the set
temperature inside the passenger
compartment and compensates for
outside temperature change.
Note:
The reference temperature is 72
°F (22 °C) for optimal comfort
management.
The automatic setting will adjust the
following to maintain comfort within the
passenger compartment:
Air temperature from the driver/front
passenger side vents
Air distribution from the driver/front
passenger side vents
Fan speed (continuous variation of the
air flow)
Compressor variations (for
cooling/dehumidifying the air)
Air recirculation
The Climate Control System can also be
operated manually by using the buttons
and knobs on the faceplate.
Manual selections will override the
automatic settings, which are stored until
the AUTO button is pushed. If the system
intervenes for safety reasons, the
automatic setting will take control of the
system.
The below operations will not deactivate
the automatic (AUTO) function:
Air Recirculation activation/
deactivation
A/C activation/deactivation
SYNC function activation
Rear Window Defrost activation/
deactivation
When in AUTO mode, the vehicle’s
internal temperature is controlled
according to the set temperature.
The following can be manually set or
adjusted:
Driver/passenger air temperature
Blower speed (continuous variation)
Air distribution (seven positions for
driver and passenger)
A/C activation
Front Defroster
Air recirculation
Rear Defroster
System deactivation
Operating Mode
The Climate Control system can be
activated in different ways. It is
recommended to use the automatic
function. Push the AUTO button and set
the desired temperatures.
The automatic system adjusts the
temperature, quantity, and distribution
of air introduced into the passenger
compartment. It also controls air
recirculation and the activation of the air
conditioner.
At any time during automatic operation,
you can change the temperature, activate
or deactivate the Rear Defroster,
activate SYNC, activate or deactivate
the air conditioner, and activate or
deactivate air recirculation.The system
will automatically adjust to the new
settings.

Climate Control system.The indicator
lights located on the buttons and knobs
indicate that the selected feature is
on/off. If no operation is performed for a
predetermined time, the pop-up will close
on the display.
Air Temperature Adjustment
Rotate the driver or passenger
Temperature Adjustment Knob clockwise
for warmer temperatures or
counterclockwise for cooler
temperatures.The set temperatures are
shown on the Information and
Entertainment System.
Push the SYNC button to sync the driver
and passenger air temperatures.
Rotate the passengerTemperature
Adjustment Knob to cancel the SYNC
function.This will set a new passenger
side temperature.
Rotate theTemperature Adjustment
Knob fully clockwise to engage the HI
(maximum heating) setting or fully
counterclockwise to engage the LO
(maximum cooling) setting.To deactivate
these functions, rotate theTemperature
Adjustment Knob to the desired
temperature.
Rear passengers’ temperature is linked
to driver side selection.
Air Distribution Selection
Push the Air Distribution Selection
button on the faceplate to change the
mode of air distribution.The follow
selectable option are explained below:
Air flow to the windshield and
demister window vents to
demist/defrost them.
Air flow at the central and side
dashboard vents to ventilate the
chest and the face.
Air flow to the front and rear floor
vents.This setting heats the
passenger compartment the
quickest.
Air flow distributed between the
floor vents (hotter air) and the
central and side dashboard vents
(cooler air).This air distribution
setting is useful on sunny days
during spring and autumn.
Air flow distributed between the
floor vents, windshield, and front
side window defrosting/demisting
vents.This distribution setting
warms the passenger compartment
while preventing the windows from
fogging up.
