Press and release the button on the door to open it. The
large door swings upward to allow easy access to the
compartment’s contents.
Beverage Cooler Operation
The blower speed setting on the climate control sets the
rate at which air flows into the compartment. The airflow
control valve inside the compartment determines how
much air flows into the compartment. Turning the valve
rearward increases the airflow, turning it forward de-
creases the airflow, and turning it all the way forward
turns off the airflow.
The compartment cools when the airflow control valve is
open, the engine is running, and the Air Conditioning
(A/C) is on or the Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
system (if equipped) is set for automatic operation. This
allows you to cool the compartment when the climate
control is in a cooling or heating mode.
