8-4 Climate Controls
0
(Defrost): Clears the
windscreen of mist or frost more
quickly. Air is directed to the
0
windscreen. Press the
turn on or off. Changing the air
delivery mode also turns the
defrost off.
AC Mode (Air Conditioning):
Press the AC Mode touch screen
control to turn the automatic air
conditioning on or off. If the fan is
turned off or the outside
temperature falls below freezing, the
air conditioner will not run.
Press AUTO to return to automatic
operation and the air conditioner
runs as needed.
Automatic Air Recirculation:
When the AUTO indicator light is
on, the air inside the vehicle may
automatically recirculate as needed
to help quickly cool the inside of the
vehicle.
If equipped, an air quality sensor
may also activate recirculation when
it detects increasing levels of poor
quality air outside the vehicle. The
air quality sensor will not maintain
recirculation for an extended period
and may not activate during cold
button to
weather. To adjust the sensitivity of
the air quality sensor, see Climate
and Air Quality under Vehicle
Personalisation on page 5-38.
The air quality sensor system does
not protect against carbon monoxide
(CO), which cannot be seen or
smelled. See Engine Exhaust on
page 9-20.
(Recirculation): Press to
alternate between recirculating air
inside the vehicle or pulling in
outside air. The indicator light on the
button is lit when recirculation mode
is active. This helps to quickly cool
the air inside the vehicle or prevent
outside air and odours from
entering.
Pressing this button cancels
automatic recirculation. Press AUTO
to return to automatic operation;
recirculation runs automatically as
needed.
Manual recirculation mode is not
available when in Defrost or Defog
modes.
Auto Defog: The climate control
system may have a sensor to
automatically detect high humidity
inside the vehicle. When high
humidity is detected, the climate
control system may adjust to
outside air supply and turn on the
air conditioner. If the climate control
system does not detect possible
window misting, it returns to normal
operation. To turn Auto Demist off or
on, see "Climate and Air Quality"
under Vehicle Personalisation on
page 5-38.

(Rear Window Demister):
Press to turn the rear window
demister on or off.
The rear window demister turns off
automatically after about
10 minutes. If turned on again, it
runs for about five minutes before
turning off.
