AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL
DESCRIPTIONS AND FUNCTIONS
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 and releasing the button again will cause the
MAX A/C operation to exit.
NOTE:
The MAX A/C button is only available on the
touchscreen.
A/C Button
Press and release this button on the touch-
screen, or push the button on the faceplate
to change the current setting. The A/C indi-
cator illuminates when A/C is ON.
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the operator to
manually activate or deactivate the air conditioning sys-
tem. When the air conditioning system is turned on,
cool dehumidified air will flow through the outlets into
the cabin.
NOTE:
•
If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side
glass, select Defrost mode, and increase blower
speed if needed.
•
If your air conditioning performance seems lower
than expected, check the front of the A/C condenser
(located in front of the radiator), for an accumula-
tion of dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle water
spray from the front of the radiator and through the
condenser.
Recirculation Button
Press and release this button on the touch-
screen, or push the button on the faceplate
to change the system between recirculation
mode and outside air mode. The Recircula-
tion 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 unavailable
(button on the touchscreen greyed out) if conditions
exist that could create fogging on the inside of the wind-
shield. The A/C can be deselected manually without
disturbing the mode control selection. Continuous use
of the 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.
In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode may lead to
excessive window fogging. The Recirculation feature
may be unavailable if conditions exist that could create
fogging on the inside of the windshield.
AUTO Button
Set your desired temperature and press
AUTO. AUTO will achieve and maintain your
desired temperature by automatically adjust-
ing the blower speed and air distribution. Air
Conditioning (A/C) may be active during AUTO operation
to improve performance. AUTO mode is highly recom-
mended for efficiency. You can press and release this
button on the touchscreen, or push the button on the
faceplate, to turn AUTO on. The AUTO indicator illumi-
nates when AUTO is on. Toggling this function will cause
the system to switch between manual mode and auto-
matic modes
