Temperature Controls
Max A/C Button
Press and release the MAX A/C button on
the touchscreen to change the current set-
ting to the coldest output of air. The MAX A/C
indicator illuminates when MAX A/C is on.
Pressing the button again will cause the MAX A/C
operation to exit.
NOTE:
The MAX A/C setting is only available on the
touchscreen.
A/C Button
Press and release the button on the touch-
screen, or push the button on the faceplate
to change the current setting. The indicator
illuminates when A/C is on.
NOTE:
•
If the system is in Mix or Defrost Mode, the A/C can
be turned off, but the A/C system shall remain
active to prevent fogging of the windows.
•
If not operating in AUTO mode, the system will not
automatically sense the presence of fog, mist or ice
on the windshield. Defrost Mode must be manually
selected to clear the windshield and side glass.
•
If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side
glass, select Defrost Mode and adjust blower speed
if needed.
Recirculation Button
Press and release the Recirculation button
on the touchscreen, or press the button on
the faceplate, to change the system between
recirculation mode and outside air. The
Recirculation indicator and the A/C indicator illuminate
when the Recirculation button is pressed. Recirculation
can be used when outside conditions such as smoke,
odors, dust, or high humidity are present. Recirculation
can be used in all modes. Recirculation may be unavail-
able (button on the touchscreen grayed out) if condi-
tions exist that could create fogging on the inside of the
windshield. The A/C can be deselected manually with-
out disturbing the mode control selection. Continuous
use of Recirculation mode may make the inside air
stuffy and window fogging may occur. Extended use of
this mode is not recommended. Recirculation mode
may automatically adjust to optimize customer experi-
ence for warming, cooling, dehumidification, etc.
AUTO Button
Set your desired temperature and press the
AUTO button on the touchscreen, or push the
button on the faceplate. AUTO will achieve
and maintain your desired temperature by
automatically adjusting the blower speed and air distri-
bution. Air Conditioning (A/C) may be active during
AUTO operation to improve performance. AUTO mode is
highly recommended for efficiency. You can turn AUTO
on in one of two ways:
•
Press and release this button on the touchscreen

between manual mode and automatic mode
page 76.
Front Defrost Button
Press and release the Front Defrost button
on the touchscreen, or push the button on
the faceplate to change the current airflow
setting to Defrost mode. The indicator illumi-
nates when this feature is on. Air comes from the wind-
shield and side window demist outlets. When the
defrost button is selected, the blower level may
increase. Use Defrost mode with maximum tempera-
ture settings for best windshield and side window
defrosting and defogging. Performing this function will
cause the Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) to
switch into manual mode. If the Front Defrost mode is
turned off the climate system will return to the previous
setting.
