Controls and features The temperature/mode selection control allows rear passengers to select the temperature, as well as whether the air is distributed from the overhead registers or the floor register, or a mix between the two. The temperature/mode selection control allows you to select any temperature setting for your desired comfort level and gives you three choices for air distribution: (Panel) • (Panel and floor) • (Floor) • It is important to note that whenever the temperature/mode selection control is set to a specific temperature setting, the system automatically determines the air distribution location: • Cool temperature range settings allow the air to be distributed through the overhead registers. • Mild (mid temperature range settings) allow the air to be distributed through both the overhead registers and the floor register. • Warm temperature range settings allow the air to be distributed through the floor register. REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER (IF EQUIPPED) The rear defroster control is located on the instrument panel. Press the defroster control to clear the rear window of thin ice and fog. • The small LED will illuminate when the defroster is activated. The engine must be running to operate the rear window defroster. The defroster turns off automatically after 10 minutes or when the ignition is turned to the OFF position. To manually turn off the defroster before 10 minutes have passed, push the control again. 37
