OPERATING TIPS
Automatic fan and air distribution are set primarily by the driver
temperature settings. When the driver and passenger temperature
settings are very different, you may need to use the manual fan speed
setting to achieve passenger comfort.
•To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather, place
the air flow selector in the
position.
•To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle: do not drive with the
air flow selector in the OFF or MAX A/C position.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather:
1. Select
2. Select A/C
3. Modulate the temperature control to maintain comfort.
4. Set the fan speed to HI
5. Direct the outer instrument panel vents towards the side windows
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.
