minate when this button is selected. Push the
button a second time to turn off the Recircula-
tion mode and allow outside air into the vehicle.
NOTE:
In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode may
lead to excessive window fogging. The recircu-
lation feature may be unavailable (button on
touchscreen greyed out) if conditions exist that
could create fogging on the inside of the wind-
shield. On systems with Manual Climate Con-
trols, the Recirculation mode is not allowed in
Defrost mode to improve window clearing opera-
tion. Recirculation will be disabled automatically
if this mode is selected. Attempting to use Recir-
culation while in this mode will cause the LED in
the control button to blink and then turn off.

(ATC)
Automatic Operation

AUTO button on the touchscreen on the Auto-
matic Temperature Control (ATC) Panel.

2. Next, adjust the temperature you would like
the system to maintain by adjusting the
driver and passenger temperature control
buttons. Once the desired temperature is
displayed, the system will achieve and auto-
matically maintain that comfort level.
3. When the system is set up for your comfort
level, it is not necessary to change the
settings. You will experience the greatest
efficiency by simply allowing the system to
function automatically.
NOTE:
• It is not necessary to move the tempera-
ture settings. The system automatically
adjusts the temperature, mode, and
blower speed to provide comfort as
quickly as possible.
• The temperature can be displayed in U.S.
or Metric units by selecting the US/M
customer-programmable feature. Refer to
the "Uconnect® System Settings" in this
section of the manual.
To provide you with maximum comfort in the
Automatic mode, during cold start-ups the
blower fan will remain on low until the engine
warms up. The blower will increase in speed
and transition into Auto mode.
Manual Operation Override
The system allows for manual selection of
blower speed, air distribution mode, A/C status
and recirculation control.
The blower fan speed can be set to any fixed
speed by adjusting the blower control. The fan
will now operate at a fixed speed until additional
speeds are selected. This allows the front oc-
cupants to control the volume of air circulated in
the vehicle and cancel the Auto mode.
The operator can also select the direction of the
airflow by selecting one of the available mode
settings. A/C operation and Recirculation control
can also be manually selected in Manual operation.
NOTE:
Each of these features operates indepen-
dently from each other. If any feature is
controlled manually, temperature control
will continue to operate automatically.
