defogger is on, the area of the windshield
beneath the windshield wipers will warm up
to melt accumulated snow or ice.
The rear window defogger can be set to
automatic operation. When Auto Rear Defog
is selected, the rear window defogger turns
on automatically when the vehicle is first
started in cold weather and turns off when
the vehicle is warmed. To turn Auto Rear
Defog off or on, select Settings > Climate
and Air Quality > Auto Rear Defog > Select
ON or OFF.
The heated outside rearview mirrors turn on
when the rear window defogger button is
on and help to clear fog or frost from the
surface of the mirrors.
Caution
Do not try to clear frost or other material
from the inside of the front windshield
and rear window with a razor blade or
anything else that is sharp. This may
damage the rear window defogger grid
and affect the radio's ability to pick up
stations clearly. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Sensor
The solar sensor, on top of the instrument
panel near the windshield, monitors the
solar heat.
The climate control system uses the sensor
information to adjust the temperature, fan
speed, recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort.
If the sensor is covered, the automatic
climate control system may not work
properly.
Remote Start Climate Control Operation :
The climate control system may run when
the vehicle is started remotely. The system
uses the driver s previous settings to heat or
cool the inside of the vehicle. The rear defog
may come on during remote start based on
cold ambient conditions. The rear defog
indicator light does not come on during a
remote start. If equipped with heated or
cooled seats, they may come on during a
remote start. See Remote Start 0 12 and
Heated and Ventilated Front Seats 0 38.
Afterblow Feature
If equipped, under certain conditions, the
fan may stay on or may turn on and off
several times after you turn off and lock the
vehicle. This is normal.
Air Vents
Use the multi-function joystick control on
the front center and side air vents to change
the direction of the airflow.
Air vents blow warm air on the side
windows in cold weather. If floor, defog,
or defrost modes are selected, a small
amount of air will come from the vents
close to the window.
To fully open the front A/C vents, turn the
multi-function joystick control knob until the
indicator points straight up.
