Fan speed control

in the vehicle.
Temperature control
Controls the temperature of the
airflow inside the vehicle.
Mode selector control

to the inside of the vehicle.
A/C ControlA/C
Turns the A/C on in all modes when the outside temperature is about
4ÉC (40ÉF) or higher.
The air conditioning operates in MAX A/C and when the A/C control is
depressed. However, the air conditioning will only function if the outside
temperature is about 4ÉC (40ÉF) or higher.
Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the air
during operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under
the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you
have stopped the vehicle.
Under normal conditions, your vehicle's climate control system should be
left in any position other than MAX A/C or OFF when the vehicle is
parked. This allows the vehicle to ªbreatheº through the outside air inlet
duct. Prior to turning off the ignition, in snowy or dirty conditions,
ensure that the climate control system is turned OFF.
²MAX A/C-Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. MAX A/C is noisier
than A/C modes but more economical and will cool the inside of the
vehicle faster. In this mode, the air conditioning will automatically
engage if the outside temperature is about 4ÉC (40ÉF) or higher and
