system automatically works to keep a con-
stant temperature. Air flow distribution and
fan speed are also controlled automatically.

temperature.
• The temperature of the passenger com-
partment will be maintained automati-
cally. Air flow distribution and fan speed
are also controlled automatically.
• A visible mist may be seen coming from
the vents in hot, humid conditions as the
air is cooled rapidly. This does not indicate
a malfunction.

passenger's side temperature using
each temperature control dial. When the
DUAL button is pressed or passenger's
side temperature dial is turned, the
DUAL indicator will come on. To turn off
the passenger's side temperature con-
trol, press the DUAL button.

automatically turns off, allowing outside air
to be drawn into the passenger compart-
ment to further improve the defogging
performance. When the air recirculate
mode automatically turns off, the air fresh
mode will automatically turn on.
Remote Engine Start with
Intelligent Climate Control (if so
equipped)

ing mode, the rear window defroster,
