Summer Operation - Chrysler 2012 Town & Country Owner's Manual

CAUTION!
Interior air enters the Rear Automatic Tem-
perature Control System through an intake
grille, located in the right side trim panel
behind the third row seats. The heater outlets
are located in the right side trim panel, just
behind the sliding door. Do not block or place
objects directly in front of the inlet grille or
heater outlets. The electrical system could
overload causing damage to the blower mo-
tor.
Rear Temperature Control
To change the temperature in the rear of the
vehicle, rotate the temperature knob counter-
clockwise to lower the temperature, and clock-
wise to increase the temperature. The rear
temperature settings are displayed in the front
ATC panel.
When rear controls are locked by the front
system, the Rear Temperature Lock symbol on
204
the temperature knob is illuminated and any
rear overhead adjustments are ignored.
Rear Mode Control
Auto Mode
The rear system automatically maintains the
correct mode and comfort level desired by the
rear seat occupants.
Headliner Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the head-
liner. Each of these outlets can be indi-
vidually adjusted to direct the flow of air.
Moving the air vanes of the outlets to one side
will shut off the airflow.
Bi-Level Mode
Air comes from both the headliner out-
lets and the floor outlets.
NOTE:
In many temperature positions, the Bi-Level
mode is designed to provide cooler air out of
the headliner outlets and warmer air from
the floor outlets.
Floor Mode
Air comes from the floor outlets.

Summer Operation

The engine cooling system in air conditioned
vehicles must be protected with a high-quality
antifreeze coolant to provide proper corrosion
protection and to protect against engine over-
heating. A solution of 50% ethylene glycol
antifreeze coolant and 50% water is recom-
mended. Refer to "Maintenance Procedures" in
"Maintaining Your Vehicle" for proper coolant
selection.
