(72°F) or 25°C (75°F) setting. (the tem-
perature vary depending on vehicle
specifications.).
• If you turn the temperature selector (1)
until “HI” or “LO” appears on the display,
the climate control system will operate at
maximum heating or cooling and the
blower will run at full speed.
• To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather
or hot air in hot weather, the system will
delay turning on the blower until warmed
or chilled air is available.
• If your vehicle has been left in the sun
with the windows closed, it will cool
faster if you open the windows briefly.

can set individual selectors to the manualmode. The manually selected functions
are maintained, and the other functions
remain under automatic operation.
• If the windshield and/or the front door
windows are fogged, push the defrost
switch (5) to turn on the defroster, or
push the air flow selector (4) to change
the air flow to HEAT & DEFROST posi-
tion to defog the windows.
