Acura 2011 RDX Owner's Manual page 169

Proper use of the climate control
system can make the interior dry and
comfortable, and keep the windows
clear for best visibility.
For the climate control system to
provide heating and cooling, the
engine must be running.
You can adjust the temperatures of
the driver's side and the passenger's
side independently (see page 169).
Voice Control System
On models with navigation system
The climate control system can also
be operated by voice control. See the
navigation system manual for
complete details.
Using Automatic Climate Control
The automatic climate control system
adjusts the fan speed and airflow
levels to maintain the interior
temperature you select.
On models with navigation system
In AUTO mode, the vehicle's interior
temperature is independently
regulated for the driver and
passenger, based on inputs from
sunlight and temperature sensors
(see page 171). If one side of the
vehicle is getting too much sun, the
system lowers the temperature only
on that side.
1. Press the AUTO button. The
indicator in the button comes on.

passenger's side temperature can be
controlled independently (see page
169).
The system automatically selects the
proper mix of conditioned and/or
heated air that will, as quickly as
possible, raise or lower the interior
temperature to your preference.
