The switches on the control panel have the following functions:
Heated Windshield Switch
Energizes the heated windshield and the windshield wiper parking area heater for a set time period, until the switch is pressed again or until the engine stops, whichever occurs first. A light emitting diode (LED) above the switch is illuminated while the heaters are on.
LH and RH Seat Heater Switches
Activates the heater elements in the seat cushion and seat back at one of two heat levels. The first press of the switch energizes the heater elements at the higher heat setting and illuminates two light emitting diode (LED)s in the switch. A second press of the switch sets the heater elements to the lower heat setting and extinguishes one of the light emitting diode (LED)s. A further press of the switch de-energizes the heater elements and extinguishes the second light emitting diode (LED). The seat heaters remain on until selected off or the ignition is switched off.
Enabled only with the engine running.
LH and RH Temperature Switches
Adjusts the nominal temperature settings of the left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH) sides of the cabin between 16 and 28 °C (60 and 84 °F). The temperature range is engraved on the switch surrounds. A pointer on each switch indicates the selected temperature. In the minimum and maximum temperature positions, the system operates at maximum cooling or maximum heating respectively.
Automatic Mode Switch
Activates the automatic modes for air volume and distribution and also activates the air conditioning (A/C) compressor. Separate light emitting diode (LED)s in the automatic mode switch illuminate when the blower and the distribution control doors are in automatic mode. Manually selecting the blower speed or a distribution switch extinguishes the related light emitting diode (LED).
Blower Switch
For manual adjustment of blower speed. Up to seven light emitting diode (LED)s in the switch surround illuminate to indicate the selected blower speed.
In automatic mode the light emitting diode (LED) does not illuminate.
A/C Switch
Controls activation of the air conditioning (A/C) compressor. Allows the air conditioning (A/C) compressor to be selected off for economy operation. A light emitting diode (LED) above the switch is illuminated when the air conditioning (A/C) compressor is selected on.
Recirculation Switch
For manual or automatic selection of fresh or recirculated air. Two light emitting diode (LED)s above the switch illuminate to indicate the mode and position of the recirculation doors. The first press of the switch sets the recirculation doors to automatic mode and illuminates the left-hand (LH) light emitting diode (LED). A second press of the switch manually sets the recirculation doors to the recirculation position, extinguishes the left-hand (LH) light emitting diode (LED) and illuminates the right-hand (RH) light emitting diode (LED). A further press of the switch manually sets the recirculation doors to the fresh air position and extinguishes the right-hand (RH) light emitting diode (LED).
Maximum A/C Switch
For selection of maximum air conditioning (A/C) when the ignition is on or rest heating when the ignition is off. A light emitting diode (LED) above the switch is illuminated when maximum cooling or rest heating is selected.
Distribution Switches (Windshield, Face and Footwell)
For manual selection of air distribution in any combination of windshield, face and footwell outlets. A light emitting diode (LED) above each switch illuminates when a selection is made.
Defrost Program Switch
Activates a program that automatically selects the heated windshield on, activates the air conditioning (A/C) compressor and changes the system settings to direct dry heat to the windshield. A light emitting diode (LED) above the switch is illuminated while the defrost program is active.
Heated Rear Window Switch and Heated Front Screen
Enabled only with the engine running. Pressing the switch energizes the heated rear window for a set time period based on ambient temperature (i.e. stays on longer in cold ambient temperature), until the switch is pressed again or until the engine stops, whichever occurs first. A light emitting diode (LED) above the switch is illuminated while the heater is on.
