In automatic operation, air recirculation
will be controlled by the system
according to outside environmental
conditions.
Note:
With the AQS function active and
after the internal air recirculation
system has been functioning for a set
amount of time, the Climate Control
System enables air intake to cycle the
air in the passenger compartment for a
set time.The AQS function is disabled
during the air changes.
The engagement of the recirculation
system makes it possible to reach the
required heating or cooling conditions
faster. It is, however, inadvisable to use
it on rainy/cold days as it can increase
the possibility of the windows fogging.
When the outside temperature is low,
recirculation is forced off to prevent the
windows from fogging up.
A/C Compressor
Push the A/C button or the
icon to
activate or deactivate the A/C
compressor (indicator illuminated when
activated).The A/C compressor will
remain off even after the engine has
stopped.
When the A/C compressor is turned off,
the system deactivates air recirculation
to prevent the windows from fogging up.
If the climate control system can
maintain the temperature, with the A/C
turned off, the AUTO feature will remain
on and the AUTO button indicator light
will not switch off.
To restore automatic control of the A/C
compressor, push the A/C button or the
icon or the AUTO button. With the A/C
compressor off, the air speed can be set
manually using the Air Speed Adjustment
Knob.
When the A/C compressor is on, and the
engine is running, air speed cannot be
lower than the minimum speed (only one
indicator light is lit).
Note:
When the A/C is off, the Climate
Control system can not produce air that
is colder than the current outside
temperature. Under certain
environmental conditions, windows could
fog up rapidly since the air is not
dehumidified.
Front Defroster And MAX-DEF
Function
Push the Front Defroster button
(indicator illuminated) to defrost the
windshield and side windows.
While in MAX-DEF function, the air
conditioner will:
Activate the air conditioner
compressor when the weather allows
Turn air recirculation off
Set the maximum air temperature (HI)
on both the driver and passenger side
Activate a blower speed based on the
temperature of the engine coolant
Adjust the air flow towards the
windshield and front side windows
Activate the Rear Window Defroster
Display the fan speed (indicators
illuminated) and current air distribution
setting
Note:
The MAX-DEF function remains
active for approximately three minutes
once the engine coolant reaches the
proper temperature.
When the function is on, AUTO mode will
deactivate.The only manual operations
possible are adjusting blower speed and
turning off the Rear Window Defroster.
Pushing the
button switches off the
MAX-DEF function.
Rear Defroster
Push the Rear Defroster
button to
activate (indicators illuminated) the Rear
Defroster.
The Rear Defroster will turn off after
20 minutes or once the engine is turned
off.To reactive the Rear Defroster, push
the Rear Defroster
button.
Note:
To avoid damage, do not apply
stickers over the interior heating
filaments of the Rear Defroster.

Humidity Sensor
The Humidity Sensor helps to prevent the
windows from fogging up.The AUTO
function (indicator illuminated) must be
on for the Humidity Sensor to function.
When outside temperature is low, the
system may turn the compressor on and
turn air recirculation off for safer driving.
Switching Off/On The Climate Control
System
Switching Off The Climate Control
System
Rotate the Air Speed Adjustment Knob
completely counterclockwise to turn off
the Climate Control System.
With the air conditioner off:
Air recirculation is on
The A/C compressor is off
The fan is off
The heated rear window can be
activated/deactivated
Note:
The climate control system stores
the previously set temperatures and
resumes operation when any button on
the system is pushed.
Switching On The Climate Control
System
To switch the climate control system on
in automatic mode, push the AUTO
button.
Stop/Start
The Stop/Start system shuts off the
engine when vehicle speed is 0 mph
(0 km/h), and the climate control system
will continue to maintain comfort within
the vehicle.
Stop/Start will deactivate in the
following scenarios:
The climate control system is in AUTO
mode (indicator illuminated), and the
vehicle has yet to reach the set
temperature
The climate control system is in LO
maximum cooling
The climate control system is in HI
maximum heating
The climate control system is in the
MAX-DEF status
When the Stop/Start system is active,
the engine will restart if the inside
temperature changes significantly, or if
the LO setting, or MAX-DEF setting, is
activated.
With Stop/Start system on, air flow is
reduced to keep the compartment
comfort conditions for longer.
Until the temperature drastically
changes within the cabin, the climate
control system will continue to maintain
the temperature while the engine is off.
By deactivating the Stop/Start system
with the
button located on the
dashboard, the climate control system
will take priority over the engine shutting
off.
Note:
In harsh climate conditions, limit the
use of the Stop/Start system to prevent
the compressor from continuously
switching on and off.This will cause
rapid misting of the windows and the
accumulation of humidity in the
passenger compartment.
When the Stop/Start system is on,
the climate control system will always
take air in from outside, reducing the
probability of the windows fogging up.
System Maintenance
In winter, the Climate Control System
must be turned on at least once a month
for approximately ten minutes.
Have the system inspected at an
authorized dealer before the summer.

POWER WINDOWS
Power Window Switches
The power window switches work with
the ignition in the ON position and for
three minutes after the ignition has been
placed in the STOP position. When one of
the front doors is opened, this operation
is disabled.
Driver Side Front Door Controls
The switches are located on the door
panel trim. All windows can be controlled
from the driver side door panel.
Window Opening
Push the buttons to open the desired
window.
Each button has two position steps.
Press gently (first position step) for
manual "burst" window travel, while
pressing the same button harder (second
position step) activates "continuous
automatic" operation.
If the button is pressed again, the window
will stop in the desired position.
Window Closing
Pull the window to the first detent to
move the window upward. Pull the
window to the second detent, and the
window will go up automatically.
To Stop the window during Auto-UP
operation, push the window switch.

Controls
There are single window controls on the
passenger and rear door trim panels
which operate the door windows.
Auto-Up Feature With Anti-Pinch
Protection
The vehicle may be equipped with an
anti-pinch safety device for closing the
windows.
If the safety system senses any obstacle
while the window is closing, it will stop
the window’s movement and reverse it,
depending on its position.
This device is also useful if the windows
are activated accidentally by children on
board the vehicle.
The anti-pinch safety function is
activated both during the manual and the
automatic operation of the window.
When the anti-pinch system is activated,
the window closing is immediately
interrupted.Then the window closing is
automatically reversed and the window
lowers by about eight inches (20 cm) in
relation to the first stop position.The
window cannot be operated during this
time.
Note:
In the event of an error, or if the
anti-pinch protection is activated three
consecutive times, the automatic closing
operation of the window will be
deactivated. In order to restore the
correct operation of the system, the
window must be lowered.
