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.

Use the system when the power system is on.
1. Press the AUTO button.
2. Adjust the interior temperature using the temperature control dial.
3. Press the

(ON/OFF) button to cancel.

Using Automatic Climate Control

If any buttons are pressed while using the climate
control system in auto, the function of the button
that was pressed will take priority.
The AUTO indicator will go off, but functions
unrelated to the button that was pressed will be
controlled automatically.

To prevent cold air from blowing in from outside, the
fan may not start immediately when the AUTO
button is pressed.

If the interior is very warm, you can cool it down
more rapidly by partially opening the windows,
turning the system on auto, and setting the
temperature to low. Change the fresh air mode to
recirculation mode until the temperature cools down.

When you set the temperature to the lower or upper
limit, Lo or Hi is displayed.

Pressing the

button switches the climate

control system between on and off. When turned on,
the system returns to your last selection.

While ECON mode is active, the climate control
system may have reduced cooling performance.
