Rear Climate Control System Without Entertainment System
Your vehicle may have a rear climate control system that allows the driver to adjust the fan speed or a rear-seat passenger to set a separate temperature and adjust the fan speed, for the rear seating area. This system works with the main climate control system in your vehicle.
This knob is located below the main climate control system on the instrument panel switchbank. Use this knob to adjust the fan speed for the rear seat passengers.
These controls are overhead, on the control panel located behind the driver's seat. A rear seat passenger can use these controls to personally adjust the temperature and the fan speed for the rear seating area.
The fan knob located on the switchbank must be turned to R (Rear) to allow the rear seat passengers to use the controls located on the control panel in the rear seating area. Performing this action disables the fan knob on the switchbank. To return control to that knob, turn the knob out of R.
To direct the airflow to the rear seating area, use the right knob located on the main climate control panel.

Generally the upper outlets are used for air conditioning and the floor outlets are used for heating.
(Fan): Turn the fan knob on either rear fan control to numeral 1, 2, or 3 to increase or decrease airflow to the rear seating area. Turn the fan knob on either rear fan control to 0 or OFF to turn off the fan.Temperature Control: If the driver is adjusting the temperature, increase or decrease the temperature for the entire vehicle using the temperature controls located on the main climate control panel. The air-conditioning system must be on to direct cooled air to the rear of the vehicle. If it is not on, the temperature in the rear of the vehicle will remain at cabin temperature. If a rear seat passenger is adjusting the temperature, turn the right knob, located overhead on the control panel behind the driver's seat, clockwise or counterclockwise to raise or lower the temperature in the rear seating area only.
Rear Air Outlets
The outlet behind the left rear seat is the cold air return outlet. Be sure to keep it free from obstructions. Also, keep the area around the base of the center instrument panel console, between and under the front seats, free of objects that could also obstruct airflow to the rear seating area.
