Climate Controls
For best results, clear all snow and
ice from the windshield before
defrosting.

conditioning on or off. If the fan is
turned off, the air conditioner will not
run and the indicator light may
turn off.
Press AUTO to return to automatic
operation and the air conditioner
runs as needed. When the indicator
light is on, the air conditioner runs
automatically to cool the air inside
the vehicle or to dry the air as
needed to defog the windshield
faster.
A/C (For Stop/Start Vehicles) :
Press to cycle between the off, eco,
and comfort air conditioning modes.
The indicator will be lit in comfort
and eco modes and turns off when
there is no A/C function. If the fan is

turn off.
Press AUTO to return to automatic
operation and the air conditioner
runs automatically as needed. When
the indicator light is on, the air
conditioner runs automatically to

dry the air as needed to defog the
windshield faster.
For comfort a/c, press A/C. The
indicator will turn amber.
For eco a/c, press A/C again. The
indicator will turn green. This setting
balances fuel economy and air
conditioning comfort. In warm
weather conditions, auto stops may
occur more frequently and the
vehicle interior may be warmer as
compared to the comfort air
conditioning setting. This setting
allows higher humidity inside the
vehicle and window fogging before
the engine restarts.
Pressing
0
during an auto stop
may restart the engine to prevent
window fogging. To reach comfort
levels quickly during an auto stop,
the engine will restart if the air
conditioner is off and AUTO or A/C
is selected.
If temperature controls are adjusted
cooler during an auto stop, the
engine may restart to ensure that
comfort is reached.
L
:
Press to turn on
recirculation. An indicator light
comes on. Air is recirculated to
quickly cool the inside of the vehicle
or prevent outside air and odors
from entering.
Auto Defog :
The climate control
system may have a sensor to
automatically detect high humidity
inside the vehicle. When high
humidity is detected, the climate
control system may adjust to
outside air supply and turn on the
air conditioner. The fan speed may
slightly increase to help prevent
fogging. If the climate control
system does not detect possible
window fogging, it returns to normal
operation. To turn Auto Defog off or
on, see
