Mode selection

The mode selection switch controls the direction of the air flow through the ventilation system.

Air flow direction

Symbol	Operation	Direction

Ĭ	Air flow is directed toward the face and the floor.	B, C, D
Ã(if equipped)	Air flow is coming out of all the vents.	A, B, C, D
Å	Most of the air flow is directed to the floor, with a small amount of the air being directed to the windshield and side window defrosters.	A, C, D
ī	Most of the air flow is directed to the floor and the windshield with a small amount directed to the side window defrosters.	A, C, D
Ǧ(if equipped)	All airflow is concentrated toward the defroster.	A

Front windshield defroster [A], [D]

Press the front windshield defroster button (indicator light ON) to turn on the front windshield defroster. If the windshield defogging is set, outside (fresh) mode is automatically selected and the air conditioning turns on according to the detected ambient temperature.

Press the front windshield defroster button once more (indicator light OFF) to turn the function off. Each climate control setting reverts to the setting prior to selecting the front windshield defrost.

Instrument panel vents

The instrument panel vent air flow can be directed up/down or left/right using the vent adjustment lever.
The air flow can be closed when the vent adjustment lever is pushed to the Á position.

Temperature control

Push up the switch to increase the temperature. Push down to decrease the temperature.

Temperature conversion (°C ↔ °F)

To change the temperature unit from °C to °F or °F to °C:

Press the A/C button for more than 3 seconds, and then within 5 seconds push up the mode selection switch for more than 3 seconds.
Select User Settings > Unit > Temperature Unit > °C/°F in the instrument cluster or Vehicle > Unit settings > Temperature unit > °C/°F in the infotainment system.

Driver only

If you press the DRIVER ONLY button (indicator light ON), most of the air flow is directed toward the driver's seat.

Some of the airflow may be directed to other seating position to keep indoor air pleasant while using DRIVER ONLY.

When using the front windshield defroster, the air flow on the both sides of windshield will continue to operate regardless of the activation of DRIVER ONLY.

Air intake control

Recirculation mode

With the recirculated air selected, air from the passenger compartment is drawn through the climate control system.

Outside (fresh) mode

With the outside (fresh) air selected, air enters the vehicle from outside and is drawn through the climate control system.

Using the system in the fresh air position is recommended.

Prolonged operation of the heater in the recirculated air position (without air conditioning selected) can cause fogging of the windshield and side windows and the air within the passenger compartment will become stale.

In addition, prolonged use of the air conditioning with the recirculated air position selected will result in excessively dry air in the passenger compartment.

To prevent serious injury or death:

Continued climate control system operation in the recirculated air position may allow humidity to increase inside the vehicle that could fog the windshield and the side windows and obscure visibility.
Do not sleep in a vehicle with the air conditioning or heating system on.
Continued climate use of recirculated air may cause drowsiness or sleepiness, and loss of vehicle control. Set the air intake control to the outside (fresh) air position while driving.

Fan speed control

Push up the switch to increase fan speed and airflow. Push down the switch to decrease fan speed and airflow.

Pressing the OFF button turns off the fan.

Operating the fan speed when the Start/Stop button is in the ON position may cause the battery to discharge.

Air conditioning

Press the A/C button to manually turn on the system on (indicator light ON) and off.

OFF mode

Press the OFF button to turn the climate control system off. You can still operate the mode and air intake buttons as long as the Start/Stop button is in the ON position.
