If the knob is set on“0”(zero), some
outside air will still enter the vehicle
and will be directed according to the
position of the mode knob.
Air Delivery Mode Control:
Turn the knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to change the
current airflow mode.
Select from the following modes:
H(Vent): Air is directed to the
instrument panel outlets.
\(Bi-Level): Air is divided
between the instrument panel
outlets and floor and side window
outlets. Cooler air is directed to the
upper outlets and warmer air to the
floor outlets.
[(Floor): Air is directed to the
floor outlets. Recirculation cannot
be selected while in floor mode
because this could cause the
interior window to fog.
/(Floor/Defog): This mode
clears the windows of fog or
moisture. Air is directed to the floor,
windshield, and side window outlets.
When this mode is selected, the
system runs the air conditioning
compressor unless the outside
temperature is near freezing or
below. Recirculation is not available
in this mode.
0(Defrost): This mode clears
the windshield of fog or frost more
quickly. Air is directed to the
windshield and side window outlets.

conditioning compressor shuts off
and turns on again. This is normal.
The system is designed to make
adjustments to help with fuel
economy while still maintaining the
selected temperature.
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.
