A/C Purge
If your vehicle is sitting out on a hot day and you have it set on AUTO,
the air will first flow out the floor air ducts for a few seconds. That is
normal. This is to
expel hot air in the air ducts. As the air is cooled. the
flow will move through the A/C outlets. If you start your vehicle with the
fan setting on HI it will skip the A/C Purge.
Cold Weather Purge
On cold days when your system is first turned on, in either the AUTO or
ECON setting? and the fan setting is not on HI, a small amount of air will
flow through thc defroster duct whilc the system is waiting for the engine
coolant
to warm up enough to provide hcat. This prevents your breath
from fogging your windshield. As the coolant warm up, the blower fan
specd
will gradually increase and air will flow from the heater outlets,
with some airflow to the windshield to prevent fogging under most normal
conditions.
Manually Recirculate Inside Air

There may be times whcn vou want less air from the outside. To
recirculate the air from thi inside, in the AUTO setting, just set the
temperature to 60” F (16* C) and adjust your fan speed:

This is useful when fog appears on the windshield or side glass due
to sudden rain or snowy conditions.

button until AUTO is
displayed on the
screen.
At this setting, the fan speed is controlled automatically.
If it is cold outside, the blower may not run in the maximum high fan
speed right away. The system checks the temperature of the coolant to
assure it is warm enough to provide heat. When thc coolant is warnl, the

Run your engine only as long as you must. This saves fuel. When vou run
the engine, make it go a little faster than just idle. That is, push the
accelerator slightlv. This uses less fuel for the heat that you get and it
keeps the battew charged. You will need a well-charged battery to restart
the vehicle, and
possibly for signaling later on with your headlamps. Let
the heater run for awhile.
