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. 1 Using Automatic Climate Control If any button is pressed while in AUTO, the function of that button takes priority. The AUTO indicator goes off, but functions of other buttons pressed are still in auto mode. To prevent cold air from blowing in from outside, the fan may operate at low speed for a while after the AUTO button has been pressed. Controls 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 in ECON mode, the system has greater temperature fluctuations.
