Rear

2C_RearVent

The instrument panel vent air flow can be directed up/down or left/right using the vent adjustment lever.

Move the lever all the way to the Á direction to close, and to the  direction to open the air vents.

Temperature control

2C_AirconTempButton_3

The temperature increases by turning the knob to the right. The temperature decreases by turning the knob to the left.

Air intake control

To select outside (fresh) air or recirculated air, press this button.

Recirculated air position

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

Outside (fresh) air position

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

2C_Airconwind_2

Turn the knob to the right to increase the fan speed and airflow. Turn the knob to the left to decrease fan speed and airflow.

Setting the fan speed control knob to the “0” position turns off the fan.

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

Air conditioning (A/C)

2C_AirconAirconButton_2

Press the A/C button to turn on the air conditioning system (indicator light ON). Press the button again to turn off the air conditioning system.
