to reach the desired temperature. Press and hold AUTO for about two
seconds to toggle between single zone and dual zone temperature control.
Dual Automatic Temperature Control (DATC) system operating tips
•
To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather, place
the air flow selector in the
position.
•
To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle, do not drive with the
system OFF, or with recirculated air
engaged and A/C off.
•
Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•
Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
•
To improve the A/C cool down, drive with the windows slightly open
for 2-3 minutes after start up or until the vehicle has been “aired out.”
