Air Conditioning
(Air Conditioning): Press to turn the air conditioning (A/C) on and off. An indicator light comes on when A/C is on.
The A/C does not work when the outside temperature is below 4°C (40°F). If
is pressed the indicator flashes three times and turns off to show that the A/C mode is not available. If the A/C is on and the outside temperature drops below a temperature which is too cool for air conditioning to be effective, the A/C indicator turns off to show that the A/C mode has been canceled.
On hot days, open the windows briefly to let hot inside air escape.
This helps reduce the time it takes for the interior of the vehicle to cool down.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from the air, so water might drip under the vehicle while idling or after turning off the engine. This is normal.
(Recirculation): Press to turn the recirculation mode on or off.
An indicator light comes on when recirculation is on. When the engine is turned off, the recirculation mode automatically turns off and must be re-selected when the engine is turned on again.
This mode recirculates and helps to quickly cool the air inside the vehicle. It can be used to prevent outside air and odors from entering the vehicle.
The recirculation mode cannot be used with floor, defog, or defrosting modes. If recirculation is selected in these modes, the indicator flashes three times and turns off.
The air conditioning compressor also comes on when this mode is activated. While in recirculation mode the windows can fog when the weather is cold and damp.
To clear the fog, select either the defog or defrost mode and increase the fan speed.
REAR: Press to turn the rear heating and air conditioning on or off. See Rear Climate Control System (Rear Climate Control Only) on page 8‑10 or Rear Climate Control System (Rear Climate with Rear Seat Audio) on page 8‑11.
