General Hints WARNING:
Prolonged use of

Page 100 of 449
Note:
To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats.
Note: Remove any snow, ice or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windshield.
Manual Climate Control
Note: To reduce fogging of the windshield
during humid weather, adjust the air
distribution control to the windshield air
vents position.
Automatic Climate Control
Note: Adjusting the settings when your
vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold is
not necessary. The system automatically
adjusts to heat or cool the interior to your
selected temperature as quickly as possible.
For the system to function efficiently, the
instrument panel and side air vents should
be fully open. Note:
At low ambient temperatures with
AUTO selected, the air stream is directed
toward the windshield and side windows
for as long as the engine remains cold.
Note: When the system is switched off,
outside air is prevented from entering your
vehicle.
Note: When you select
AUTO mode and
the interior and exterior temperatures are
high, the system automatically selects
recirculated air to maximize cooling of the
interior. When the desired air temperature
is reached, the system automatically selects
outside air.
Note: When you select windshield
defrosting and defogging, the instrument
panel and footwell level functions
automatically switch off and air conditioning
switches on. Outside air flows into your
vehicle.
