Power switch (Fan On/Off)

The climate control system turns on or off by pressing the power switch.

Temperature control dial

This dial controls temperature. Turn it clockwise for hot and counterclockwise for cold.

  • When the SYNC switch is on: Turn the driver temperature control dial to control the temperature throughout the entire cabin.
  • When the SYNC switch is off: Turn the driver or front passenger temperature control dial to independently control the temperature on each side of the cabin.

NOTE

  • The climate control system changes to the individual operation mode (SYNC switch indicator light turns off) by turning the front passenger temperature control dial even when the SYNC switch is on, which allows individual control of the set temperature for the driver and front passenger.
  • When the temperature control dial is set to the maximum or minimum, "Hi" or "Lo" is indicated on the display.
  • The temperature units for the temperature setting display can be changed in conjunction with the temperature units for the outside temperature display.

Fan control switch

The fan has 7 speeds. The selected speed will be displayed.

Mode selector switch

The desired airflow mode can be selected.

NOTE

  • With the airflow mode set to the position and the temperature control dial set at a medium temperature, heated air is directed to the feet and air at a comparably lower temperature will flow through the central, left and right vents.
  • To set the air vent to , press the windshield defroster switch.
  • In the or position, the air conditioner is automatically turned on and the outside air position is automatically selected to defrost the windshield. In the or position, the outside air position cannot be changed to the recirculated air position.

A/C switch

Pressing the A/C switch while the AUTO switch is turned on will turn off the air conditioner (cooling/dehumidifying functions).

The on/off of the air conditioner switches each time the A/C switch is pressed.

NOTE

  • The air conditioner operates when the A/C switch is pressed while the air conditioner is turned off.
  • The air conditioner may not function when the outside temperature approaches 0 ºC (32 ºF).

Air intake selector

Outside or recirculated air positions can be selected. Press the switch to select outside/ recirculated air positions.

Recirculated air position (indicator light turns on)

Outside air is shut off. Use this position when going through tunnels, driving in congested traffic (high engine exhaust areas) or when quick cooling is desired.

Outside air position (indicator light turns off)

Outside air is allowed to enter the cabin.

Use this mode for ventilation or windshield defrosting.

WARNING

Do not recirculate the air in the cabin during cold or rainy weather: Recirculating the air in the cabin during cold and rainy weather is dangerous as it will cause the windows to fog up. Your vision will be hampered, which could lead to a serious accident.

SYNC (Synchronized Temperature) switch

Use the SYNC switch to change the mode between the individual operation (driver and passenger) and interconnection (simultaneous) modes.

Interconnection mode (indicator light turns on)

The set temperature for the driver and front passenger is controlled simultaneously.

Individual operation mode (indicator light turns off)

The set temperature can be controlled individually for the driver and front passenger.

Windshield defroster switch

Operation of Automatic Air Conditioner

1. Press the AUTO switch. Selection of the airflow mode, air intake selector and amount of airflow will be automatically controlled.

2. Use the temperature control dial to select a desired temperature.

Turn the front passenger temperature control dial to control the set temperature individually for the driver and front passenger.

To turn off the system, press the power switch.

NOTE

  • Setting the temperature to maximum hot or cold will not provide the desired temperature at a faster rate.
  • When selecting heat, the system will restrict airflow until it has warmed to prevent cold air from blowing out of the vents.

Windshield Defrosting and Defogging

Press the windshield defroster switch.

In this position, the outside air position is automatically selected, and the air conditioner automatically turns on. The air conditioner will directly dehumidify the air to the front windshield and side windows.

Airflow amount will be increased.

WARNING

Set the temperature control to the hot or warm position when defogging ( position): Using the position with the temperature control set to the cold position is dangerous as it will cause the outside of the windshield to fog up. Your vision will be hampered, which could lead to a serious accident.

NOTE Use the temperature control dial to increase the air flow temperature and defog the windshield more quickly.
