Defrost to change the current airflow
setting to Defrost mode. The Front
Defrost indicator illuminates when Front
Defrost is on. Air comes from the windshield and
side window demist outlets. When the defrost
button is selected, the blower level may increase.
Use Defrost mode with maximum temperature
settings for best windshield and side window
defrosting and defogging. When toggling the front
defrost mode button, the Climate Control system
will return to the previous setting.
Rear Defrost Button
Press and release the Rear Defrost
Control button on the touchscreen, or
push and release the button on the
faceplate to turn on the rear window
defroster and the heated outside mirrors (if
equipped). The Rear Defrost indicator illuminates

MAX A/C Setting
Set the temperature control knob to the
MAX A/C setting to change the current
setting to the coldest output of air.
Moving the temperature control knob
away from the MAX A/C setting causes the MAX
A/C operation to exit.
A/C Button
Push the A/C button to engage the Air
Conditioning (A/C). The A/C indicator
illuminates when A/C is on.
NOTE:
For Manual Climate Controls, if the system is in
Mix, Floor or Defrost Mode, the A/C can be
turned off, but the A/C system shall remain
active to prevent fogging of the windows.
If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side
glass, select Defrost mode, and increase blower
speed if needed.
If your air conditioning performance seems
lower than expected, check the front of the A/C
condenser (located in front of the radiator), for
an accumulation of dirt or insects. Clean with a
gentle water spray from the front of the radiator
and through the condenser.
Recirculation Button

Push the Recirculation button on the
faceplate to change the system between
recirculation mode and outside air mode.
The Recirculation indicator and the A/C
indicator (if equipped) illuminate when the
Recirculation button is pressed. Recirculation can
be used when outside conditions such as smoke,
odors, dust, or high humidity are present.
Recirculation can be used in all modes except for
Defrost. Recirculation may be unavailable if
conditions exist that could create fogging on the
inside of the windshield. The A/C can be deselected
manually without disturbing the mode control
selection. Continuous use of the Recirculation
mode may make the inside air stuffy and window
fogging may occur. Extended use of this mode is
not recommended. On systems with Manual
Climate Controls, the Recirculation mode is not
allowed in Defrost mode to improve window
clearing operation. Recirculation is disabled
automatically if this mode is selected. Attempting
to use Recirculation while in this mode causes the
LED on the control button to blink and then turn off.

Turn the Mode control knob to Front
Defrost to change the current airflow
setting to Defrost mode. The Front
Defrost indicator illuminates when Front
Defrost is on. Air comes from the windshield and
side window demist outlets. When the defrost
button is selected, the blower level may increase.
Use Defrost mode with maximum temperature
settings for best windshield and side window
defrosting and defogging. When toggling the front
defrost mode button, the Climate Control system
will return to the previous setting.
Rear Defrost Button
Push and release the Rear Defrost
Control button to turn on the rear window
defroster and the heated outside mirrors
(if equipped). The Rear Defrost indicator
