to maintain the desired temperature. You can also turn off dual zone mode by
pressing and holding the button for greater than two seconds.

INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
WARNING
Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up. If the
windows fog up, follow the settings
for demisting the windshield.

from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.

to the rear seats.
Note: Remove any snow, ice or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windshield.

comfortable temperature in hot weather,
drive with the windows open until you feel
