Operation Tips
• To help keep dust or unpleasant
fumes from entering the car
through the ventilation system,
temporarily set the air intake con-
trol briefly to the recirculated air
position. Return the control to the
fresh air position when the irritation
has passed. This will help keep the
driver alert and comfortable.
• To help prevent the inside of the
windshield from fogging, set the air
intake control to the fresh air posi-
tion and fan speed to the desired
position, turn on the air conditioning
system, and adjust the temperature
control to the desired temperature.

2. Push the air conditioning button.
3. Set the mode to the Face Level
mode.
4. Set the air intake control to the

prolonged operation of the recircu-
lated air position will excessively

air position.
5. Adjust the fan speed control and
temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired,
set the temperature control to the
extreme left position then set the fan
speed control to the highest speed.When using the air conditioning
system, monitor the engine tem-
perature gauge closely while driv-
ing up hills or in heavy traffic
when outside temperatures are
high. Air conditioning system
operation can cause engine over-
heating. Continue to use the fan,
but turn the air conditioning sys-
tem off if the engine temperature
gauge indicates engine overheat-
ing.

direct sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
