2022 Honda Civic Owners Manual - Climate Control System

The automatic climate control system maintains the interior temperature you select. 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.

Use the system when the engine is running.

1. Press the AUTO button.
2. Adjust the interior temperature using the driver’s side or passenger’s side temperature control dial.
3. Press the (ON/OFF) button to cancel.

Detail

If any buttons are pressed while using the climate control system in auto, the function of the button that was pressed will take priority.

The auto button indicator*/AUTO indicator* will go off, but functions unrelated to the button that were pressed will be controlled automatically.

During idle-stops, air-conditioning is suspended, and only the blower remains active. If you do not want air-conditioning suspended, press the Auto Idle Stop OFF button to cancel idle-stop.

To prevent cold air from blowing in from outside, the fan may not start immediately when the AUTO button is pressed.

If the interior is very warm, you can cool it down more rapidly by partially opening the windows, turning the system on auto, and setting the temperature to low. Change the fresh air mode to recirculation mode until the temperature cools down.

When you set the temperature to the lower or upper limit, Lo or Hi is displayed.

Pressing the button switches the climate control system between on and off. When turned on, the system returns to your last selection.

Continuously variable transmission models

While ECON mode is active, the climate control system may have reduced cooling performance.

Detail

For your safety, make sure you have a clear view through all the windows before driving.

Do not set the temperature near the upper or lower limit.
When cold air hits the windshield, the outside of the windshield may fog up.

If you press the button during Auto Idle Stop, the engine restarts automatically.

Detail

After defrosting the windows, switch over to fresh air mode. If you keep the system in recirculation mode, the windows may fog up from humidity. This impedes visibility.

You can set the temperature synchronously for the driver’s side and the passenger’s side in synchronization mode.

1. Press the SYNC button.
   • The system switches to synchronization mode.
2. Adjust the temperature using the driver’s side temperature control dial.

Press the SYNC button or adjust the interior temperature using the passenger’s side temperature control dial to return to dual mode.

Detail

When the system is in dual mode, the driver’s side temperature and the passenger’s side temperature can be set separately.

When you press the button, the system changes to synchronization mode.
