Rear air outlet (F)
The air flow of the rear air outlets is controlled by the front climate control system, and the air is delivered through the air duct of the front doors. If the
door is open or not securely closed, the air flow to the rear air outlet can be
improperly delivered. Make sure the front doors are closed completely.
The air flow from the rear air outlet may be weaker than the one from instru- ment panel air outlet due to the long air duct of the front doors.

the driver alert and comfortable.
Air needed for the heating/cooling system is taken inside through the
grilles in front of the windshield.
Care should be taken that these
are not blocked by leaves, snow,
ice or other substances. To prevent fogging on the inside of
the windshield, set the air intake
control in the (fresh) air intake
mode, set the fan speed as
desired, turn ON the A/C, and

4. Adjust the fan speed and tempera- ture for your greatest comfort.
Information
• When using the A/C system, closelymonitor the engine temperature
gauge while driving up hills or in
heavy traffic when the outside tem-
perature is high. A/C operation may
overheat the engine. Continuously
use the blower fan. However, turn
the air conditioning system OFF if
the engine temperature gauge indi-
cates engine overheating.
• When opening the windows in humid weather, A/C operation may
create dew condensation inside the
vehicle. Since excessive dew conden-
sation may cause damage to electri-
cal equipment, A/C should be oper-
ated only with the windows closed.
