0(Defrost):This mode removes fog or frost from the
windshield more quickly. Air is directed to the
windshield, with some air directed to the side window
and floor outlets. In this mode, the system runs the air
conditioning compressor. To defrost the windows faster,
turn the temperature control knob clockwise to the
warmest setting.
#(Air Conditioning): Press to turn the air
conditioning system on or off. An indicator light comes
on to show that the air conditioning is on.
On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside air
escape; then close them. This helps to reduce the time
it takes for your vehicle to cool down. It also helps the
system to operate more efficiently.
For quick cool down on hot days:
1. Select
H.
2. Select
@.
3. Select
#.
4. Select the coolest temperature.
5. Select the highest fan speed.
Using these settings together for long periods of time
can cause the air inside of the vehicle to become too
dry. To prevent this from happening, after the air in the
vehicle has cooled, turn off the recirculation by pressing
the outside air button. 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.
The air conditioning compressor cannot be turned on
when the fan is off.
@(Recirculation):
Press to turn the recirculation
mode on. An indicator light comes on to show that
recirculation is on.
This mode recirculates and helps to quickly cool the air
inside the vehicle. It can be used to help prevent
outside air and odors from entering the vehicle.
The air conditioning compressor also comes on.
Recirculation is not available in floor, defog and defrost
modes. If the recirculation button is pressed, the
indicator light flashes five times and outside air is
delivered. Operation in this mode during periods of high
humidity and cool outside temperatures can result in
increased window fogging. If window fogging is
experienced, select the defrost mode.
;(Outside Air): Press to allow outside air to circulate
through the vehicle. An indicator light comes on to show
that outside air is on.
