Blower Control
Blower Control is used to regulate the amount
of air forced through the Climate Control
system. There are seven blower speeds
available. Adjusting the blower will cause
automatic mode to switch to manual operation. The
speeds can be selected using either the blower control
knob on the faceplate or the buttons on the touchscreen.
Faceplate
The blower speed increases as you turn the blower control
knob clockwise from the lowest blower setting. The blower
speed decreases as you turn the blower control knob
counterclockwise.
Touchscreen
Use the small blower icon to reduce the blower setting and
the large blower icon to increase the blower setting.
Blower can also be selected by pressing the blower bar
area between the icons.
Mode Control
Mode Control regulates the airflow distribution.
The airflow distribution outlets are: instrument
panel outlets, floor outlets, defrost outlets, and
demist outlets.
Faceplate
Push the Mode button to change the airflow distribution
mode.
Touchscreen
Press one of the MODE buttons to change the airflow
distribution mode.
Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the instrument
panel. Each of these outlets can be individually
adjusted to direct the flow of air. The air vanes
of the center outlets and outboard outlets can
be moved up and down or side to side to regulate airflow
direction. There is a shut-off wheel located below the air
vanes to shut off or adjust the amount of airflow from
these outlets.
Bi-Level Mode
Air comes from the instrument panel outlets
and floor outlets. A slight amount of air is
directed through the defrost and side window
demister outlets.
NOTE:
Bi-Level mode is designed under comfort conditions to
provide cooler air out of the panel outlets and warmer air
from the floor outlets.
Floor Mode
Air comes from the floor outlets. A slight
amount of air is directed through the defrost,
side window demister outlets, and panel
outboard outlets.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Defrost Mode
Air comes from the windshield and side window
demist outlets. When the defrost button is
selected, the blower level may increase. Use
Defrost mode with maximum temperature
settings for best windshield and side window defrosting
and defogging. When toggling the front defrost mode
button, the Climate Control system will return to the
previous setting.
Mix Mode
Air is directed through the floor, defrost, and
side window demister outlets. This setting
works best in cold or snowy conditions that
require extra heat to the windshield. This
setting is ideal for maintaining comfort while reducing
moisture on the windshield. A slight amount of air is also
directed through the panel outboard outlets.
Climate Control OFF Button
Press and release the OFF button on
the touchscreen, or push and release the
OFF button on the faceplate to turn the
Climate Control ON/OFF.
