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.
When a climate setting is adjusted manually the system exits full AUTO mode, this overrides automatic climate adjustment and delivers only the selected settings.
A/C button: Press to switch the A/C system on or off. The A/C system can be switched on or off independently of the other climate control functions.
Some of the buttons have an LED indicator lamp that illuminates to confirm selection.
If the climate control system is switched off, pressing the AUTO button or the defrost button switches the climate control system on.
Water expelled by the A/C system may collect underneath the vehicle, when parked. The expelled water is not a cause for concern.
