FRONT CLIMATE CONTROL [G2788000]

WARNING:

In the interest of safety, only operate or adjust the system when it is safe to do so. Driver distraction can lead to accidents, potentially causing serious injury or death.

WARNING:

Do not adjust the touchscreen controls, or allow the system to distract the driver, while the vehicle is moving. Driver distraction can lead to accidents, causing serious injury or death.

Make primary climate adjustments as follows:

  1. Seats key: Touch to access seat heating, cooling and massage functions. See SEAT COMFORT AND ADJUSTMENT.
  2. AUTO mode: Press to switch automatic mode on or off for the left side occupant.
    NOTE:

    AUTO mode is the recommended normal operating mode. In AUTO mode, the system regulates cabin climate based on feedback from the vehicle’s sensors, helping maintain a stable and comfortable cabin environment.

    NOTE:

    When a climate setting is adjusted manually, the system exits full AUTO mode. Manual adjustments override automatic climate adjustment and deliver only the selected settings.

  3. Sync: Select to synchronize the front passenger and rear passengers climate settings to the driver's settings.
  4. AUTO mode: Press to switch automatic mode on or off for the right side occupant.
  5. Climate control key: Touch to access the CLIMATE touchscreen menu.
  6. Recirculation key: Select to recirculate air inside the vehicle.
    NOTE:

    Prolonged use of the recirculation function at low temperatures may cause the windows to mist.

    1. Press briefly to select timed recirculation. Timed recirculation switches off automatically after a set time, dependent on the ambient temperature.
    2. Press and hold to select latched recirculation.
  7. Heated rear screen key: Demists and defrosts the rear screen. Press to switch on or off. If left on, it deactivates after a timed period, dependent on the outside temperature.
  8. MAX A/C key: Press to switch the maximum A/C mode on or off. MAX A/C adjusts settings for rapid cabin cooling.
  9. Heated windshield button: Press to switch on or off. If left on, it deactivates after a timed period, dependent on the outside temperature.
  10. A/C button: Press to switch the Air Conditioning (A/C) system on or off. The A/C system can be switched on or off independently of the other climate control functions.
  11. Max defrost: Press to switch maximum defrost for the windshield on or off. The system directs dried air at the windshield for rapid windshield defrosting.
  12. Rotary control: Rotate to adjust the temperature. Pull the control ring to adjust the fan speed. See Rotary Controls below.
    NOTE:

    Depending on vehicle specification, the rotary controls may also be used to adjust seat heating and cooling.

  13. Rotary control display. The center of the rotary control displays the current requested temperature.
NOTE:

Some of the keys have an LED indicator lamp that illuminates to confirm selection.

NOTE:

If the climate control system is switched off, pressing an AUTO button or the demist button switches the climate control system on.

NOTE:

Water expelled by the A/C system may collect underneath the vehicle when parked. This is not a cause for concern.

To access additional climate settings, select Climate from the APPS screen. See APPS SCREEN.
