In cold weather, the system will delay turning on the fan to avoid blowing cold air into the vehicle. The length of the delay depends on the engine coolant temperature and the outside temperature. Turning the right mode knob will override this delay by turning off the automatic mode and changing the fan speed. Your automatic electronic climate control system has a sun sensor located on the top of the instrument panel that detects direct sunlight. To keep you and your passengers comfortable, the system may supply cooler air to the side of the vehicle toward the sun. Be careful not to put anything over this sun sensor. The automatic electronic climate control system may not operate correctly if this sensor is covered. To change the automatic electronic climate control display from an English display to a metric display, push the OFF button located in the Driver Information Center (DIC) for two seconds. The display in the DIC will also change from an English to a metric display. To return to an English display, repeat the above procedure. Passenger Temperature Control (Option) With this feature, the right front seat passenger can control the temperature setting for his or her own zone. To use this feature, turn the knob on the passenger's door clockwise or counterclockwise to a cooler or warmer setting. The temperature can be set up to 8_F (4_C) cooler or warmer than the main setting. 3-5
