Climate Controls
For vehicles with heated outside
rearview mirrors, they turn on when
the rear window defogger button is
on and help to clear fog or frost from
the surface of the mirror. See
Notice:
Do not try to clear frost
or other material from the inside
of the front windshield and rear
window with a razor blade or
anything else that is sharp. This
may damage the rear window
defogger grid and affect your
radio's ability to pick up stations
clearly. The repairs would not be
covered by your warranty.
Remote Start Climate Control
Operation (If Equipped):
When
the vehicle is started remotely, the
climate control system will use the
last setting before the vehicle shut
off. If automatic operation was set,
the fan speed will adjust to
maximize heating or cooling.
If manual operation was set, the fan
speed will be limited to the last
setting. In extreme temperatures,
the system may not be able to heat
or cool the vehicle to the preset
temperature during the remote start
run time.
The rear window defogger turns on
if it is cold outside.
Sensor
The solar sensor, located on top of
the instrument panel near the
windshield, monitors the solar heat.
The climate control system uses the
sensor information to adjust the
temperature, fan speed,
recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort.
Do not cover the sensor; otherwise
the automatic climate control system
may not work properly.
