+# DEFOG: This setting directs air to the windshield
and through the floor ducts. This mode is particularly
useful during cold or inclement weather because of your
vehicle’s larger windshield area.
the windshield and side window vents.
DEFROST: This setting directs most of the air to
Mode Buttons
e RECIRC: Press this button (the light will glow)
to limit the amount
of fresh air entering your vehicle by
recirculating much of the air inside your vehicle. You
may use this setting to limit odors entering your vehicle.
Press the OUTSIDE AIR button (the light on the RECIRC button will go
off) to let outside air circulate
into the vehicle.
OUTSIDE AIR: Press this button (the light will
glow) to send outside air into your vehicle. Using this
setting while trying to defrost or defog the windows will
help clear the vents of moisture. Press the RECIRC
button (the light on the
OUTSIDE AIR button will go
off) to limit outside air entering the vehicle. When the
DEFOG
or DEFROST setting is selected, the system
will automatically go to OUTSIDE AIR mode.
Air Conditioning
On very hot days, your vehicle will cool down more
quickly and economically if you open the windows long
enough to let hot, inside air escape. For all settings,
adjust the temperature control knob and fan speed
as desired.
To get maximum cooling or a quick cool-down on very
hot days, press the A/C and RECIRC buttons (the lights
will glow) and turn the temperature knob to the left
(toward the blue area). Adjust the mode
knob to direct
the air to the desired location. This setting should not be
used for long periods
of time because the air may
become too cold and dry. Push the A/C button again (the
light will go off) to turn
off the air conditioning.
When the air conditioner compressor is on, you may sometimes notice slight changes
in your vehicle’s engine
performance and power. This is normal. The system
is
designed to help fuel economy while it maintains the
desired cooling level.
The air conditioner removes moisture from the air,
so
you may sometimes notice water dripping from under
your vehicle’s engine compartment when it is idling or
after it has been turned off. This is normal.

Rear Window Defogger (If Equipped)
Press REAR (the light will
glow) to warm the defogger
grid on the rear window.
The rear window defogger will turn off automatically
after about
10 minutes of use. If you turn it on again, the
defogger will operate for about five minutes. You can
also turn the defogger
off by turning off the ignition or
pressing the switch again.
Do not attach a temporary vehicle license across the
defogger grid on the rear window.
1 NOTICE:
Don’t use a razor blade or something else sharp
on the inside
of the rear window. If’ you do, you
could cut or damage the warming grid, and the
repairs wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.

Rear Climate Control (If Equipped)
If you have the optional rear climate control, the rear
seat passengers can control the temperature and the
amount of air directed
to the rear of the vehicle. The
amount
of air directed to the rear of the vehicle can also
be adjusted using the front control for the rear fan.
Set the main climate control mode knob to
LOWER,
DEFOG or DEFROST, when outside temperatures are
cold or moderate, to send air to the rear
of the vehicle
through the lower vents.
Set the main climate control mode knob to
UPPER or
BI-LEV to send air to the rear of the vehicle through the
headliner outlets.
To send conditioned air to the rear of the vehicle, press
the
A/C button (the light will glow) on the main climate
controls.
If you do not select NC, air directed to the rear
of the vehicle will be cabin temperature.
Rear Fan Control
This option comes with the rear climate controls.
Please keep the area around the base of the center
instrument panel console and the area between and
under the front seats free of objects that would obstruct
airflow to the rear of the vehicle.
':@ R
The rear fan control is
located below the
climate control system,
in the switchbank.
Turn the fan to the desired setting for the amount of air
to be directed to the rear of the vehicle. The temperature
of the air will be the same as the air in the front of the
vehicle. The rear fan control in the instrument panel
switchbank has an
R setting which allows the rear
passengers to use the rear climate control knobs to
adjust the air through the rear air outlets.
