long periods of time may cause the
air inside the vehicle to become too
dry. To prevent this from happening,
after the air inside of the vehicle has
cooled, turn the recirculation
mode off.
The air conditioning system
removes moisture from the air, so a
small amount of water might drip
under the vehicle while idling or
after turning off the engine. This is
normal.
8 (Outside Air): Press to turn
the outside air mode on. An
indicator light comes on to show
that outside air is on. Air from
outside the vehicle will circulate
throughout the vehicle. The outside air mode can be used with all

the vehicle. Avoid using the
recirculation mode during high
periods of humidity and cool outside
temperatures since this may result
in increased window fogging.
If window fogging is experienced,
select the defrost mode.
Recirculation mode is not available
in floor, defog, or defrost modes and
will shut off automatically and
change to outside air. The indicator
will flash if the button is selected in
any of these modes. This helps prevent window fogging and
moisture building up inside the
vehicle.
