the air inside of the vehicle. You may notice a
slight change in engine performance when the
air conditioning compressor shuts off and turns
on again. This is normal.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of
high humidity (moisture) condensing on the
cool window glass. This can be minimized if the
climate control system is used properly. There

frost from your windshield. Use the defog mode to
clear the windows of fog or moisture and warm
the passengers. Use the defrost mode to remove
fog or frost from the windshield more quickly.

-(Defog):This mode directs the air to the
oor outlets, windshield and side window outlets.
The recirculation button cannot be selected
while in defog mode.
1(Defrost):This mode directs most of the
air to the windshield and the side window outlets,
with only a little air directed to the oor outlets.The air conditioning compressor may run to
dehumidify the air to prevent window fogging.
The recirculation button cannot be selected while
in defrost mode. Do not drive the vehicle until

An emergency like this requires close attention
and a quick decision. If you are holding the
steering wheel at the recommended 9 and
3 o’clock positions, you can turn it a full
180 degrees very quickly without removing either
hand. But you have to act fast, steer quickly,
and just as quickly straighten the wheel once you
have avoided the object.
The fact that such emergency situations are
always possible is a good reason to practice
defensive driving at all times and wear safety
belts properly.
Off-Road Recovery
You may nd that your right wheels have dropped
off the edge of a road onto the shoulder while you
are driving.
If the level of the shoulder is only slightly below the
pavement, recovery should be fairly easy. Ease off
the accelerator and then, if there is nothing in the
way, steer so that your vehicle straddles the edge
of the pavement. You can turn the steering wheel
up to one-quarter turn until the right front tire
contacts the pavement edge. Then turn the steering
wheel to go straight down the roadway.
