Climate Control System*
Using Automatic Climate Control

The system also selects the proper mix of heated or cooled air that raises or lowers
the interior temperature to your preference as quickly as possible.

of that button takes priority.
The AUTO indicator goes off, but functions of other
buttons pressed are still in auto mode.
