Climate Control System  
Using Automatic Climate Control  
The automatic climate control system maintains the interior temperature you select.  
The system also selects the proper mix of heated or cooled air that raises or lowers  
the interior temperature to your preference as quickly as possible.  
1Using Automatic Climate Control  
If any buttons are pressed while using the climate  
control system in auto, the function of the button  
that was pressed will take priority.  
Models with colour audio system  
Models with Display Audio  
Models without SYNC button  
The AUTO indicator will go off, but functions  
unrelated to the button that were pressed will be  
controlled automatically.  
Models with Auto Idle Stop  
During idle-stops, air-conditioning is suspended, and  
only the blower remains active.  
If you do not want air-conditioning suspended, press  
to cancel Auto idle stop.  
To prevent cold air from blowing in from outside, the  
fan may not start immediately when the AUTO  
button is pressed.  
If the interior is very warm, you can cool it down  
more rapidly by partially opening the windows,  
turning the system on AUTO, and setting the  
temperature to low. Change the fresh mode to  
recirculation mode until the temperature cools down.  
Use the system when the engine is running.  
1. Press the AUTO button.  
2. Adjust the interior temperature using the temperature control dial.  
3. Press the (on/off) button to cancel.  
When you set the temperature to the lower or upper  
limit, Lo or Hi is displayed.
