footwell air vents turns off. You can also
use this setting to defog and clear the
windshield of a thin covering of ice.
Switching Maximum Air
Conditioning On and Off
Press and release the button for
maximum cooling.
The left-hand and right-hand settings set
to LO, recirculated air flows through the
instrument panel air vents, air conditioning
turns on and the blower motor adjusts to
the highest speed.
Switching Recirculated Air On and
Off
Press and release the button to
switch between outside air and
recirculated air.
The air currently in the passenger
compartment recirculates. This may
reduce the time needed to cool the interior
(when used with A/C) and reduce
unwanted odors from entering your vehicle.
Note:Recirculated air may turn off (or
prevent you from switching on) in all air flow
modes except MAX A/C to reduce the risk
of fogging. Recirculation may also turn on
and off in various air distribution control
combinations during hot weather in order
to improve cooling efficiency.
HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note:Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note:You may feel a small amount of air
from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.Note:To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.
Note:Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats.
Note:Remove any snow, ice or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windshield.
Note:To improve the time to reach a
comfortable temperature in hot weather,
drive with the windows open until you feel
cold air through the air vents.
Quickly Heating the Interior
1. Adjust the blower motor speed to the
highest speed setting.
2. Adjust the temperature control to the
highest setting.
