    Can I use the remote climate control switch to heat the cabin during cold mornings as well as cool the cabin during hot summer days?

    Thanks

    no, just the a/c, if you have it set properly in the car beforehand. that's why the button says: A/C

    yes, temp doesn't change unless you change it. so, if you want remote a/c, you have to have temp set lower than air temp, fan on, a/c on.
