C (Mode): Press this button to manually select the air delivery mode to the floor, instrument panel, or windshield outlets. The system will stay in the selected mode until the mode button is pressed again or the AUTO button is pressed. Driver's Side Temperature Knob: Turn this knob clockwise or counterclockwise to raise or lower the temperature on the driver's side of the vehicle. The display will show the temperature setting decreasing or increasing and an arrow pointing toward the driver. This knob can also adjust the passenger's side temperature setting if the two are linked. Passenger's Side Temperature Knob: Turn this knob clockwise or counterclockwise to manually raise or lower the temperature on the passenger's side of the vehicle. The display will show the temperature setting decreasing or increasing and an arrow pointing toward the passenger. The passenger's temperature setting can be set to match and link to the driver's temperature setting by pressing and holding the AUTO button for three seconds. When adjusting the driver's side temperature setting, the passenger's side temperature setting will follow and both arrows will appear on the display. The passenger's side temperature setting also resets and relinks to the driver's side temperature setting if the vehicle has been off for more than three hours. Outside Air Temperature Display A new outside temperature reading will be displayed if the vehicle has been off for more than three hours. If the vehicle has been off for less than three hours, the old temperature reading may be displayed because underhood heat is affecting the true outside temperature. Underhood heat can also affect the outside temperature while the engine is running. It may also take several minutes of driving before the display updates to the actual outside temperature. Automatic Operation AUTO (Automatic): When automatic operation is active, the system will control the inside temperature, the air delivery mode, and the fan speed. Use the steps below to place the entire system in automatic mode: 1. Press the AUTO button. When AUTO is selected, the air conditioning operation and air outlet mode will be automatically controlled. The air conditioning compressor will run continuously when the outside temperature is over approximately 40°F (4°C). The air inlet will normally be set to outside air. If it's hot outside, the air inlet will automatically switch to recirculate inside air to help quickly cool down your vehicle. 3-21
