Can you control rear AC from front?

Hey guys,

I have kids that are in car seats in the backseat, so as of now, I don't need the rear climate controlled on it's own... With our previous car (pathfinder) there was a "rear" button that let you control the rear AC. I can't figure out a way to control the rear AC...

can ya'll advise?

Thanks!

ah! I thought that only syncs the front, not the rear. that works I guess. Sometimes we like making the rear colder or warmer depending on situation, but I guess it's not the biggest deal. lol

If you want rear colder, press SYNC to enable it, lower the temperature setting in the whole car, then press again SYNC to disable it and adjust the front temperature individually.

Ya until you hit sync and then it turns on the rear and I don't realize it and then I lose air flow to the front. Lol. Sucks in the summer when this happens.
