WARNING

The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is
running.

Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either.
On hot, sunny days, temperatures in
a closed vehicle could quickly be-come high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.

Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the
interior air to become stale and the
windows to fog up.

Positioning of the heating or air con-
ditioning controls should not be
done while driving, so full attention
may be given to vehicle operation.
Start the engine and operate the controls to
activate the air conditioner.

constant temperature. Air flow distribution and
fan speed are also controlled automatically.
1. Turn the fan control dial and air flow control
dial to the AUTO position.
2. Turn the temperature control dial to set the
desired temperature.

Adjust the temperature to about 75°F (24°C)
for normal operation.

The temperature of the passenger compart-
ment will be maintained automatically. Air

desired temperature.

The temperature of the passenger compart-
ment will be maintained automatically. Air
flow distribution and fan speed are also con-
trolled automatically.

Do not set the temperature lower than the
outside air temperature. Otherwise the sys-
tem may not work properly.

Not recommended if windows fog up.
Dehumidified defrosting or defogging1. Turn the fan control dial to the desired posi-
tion.
2. Turn the air flow control dial to the DEF
position.
3. Turn the temperature control dial to set the
desired temperature.

To quickly remove ice from the outside of the
windows, turn the fan control dial to the

As soon as possible after the windshield is
clean, turn the air flow control dial to the
AUTO position to return to the auto mode.

When the air flow control dial is turned to theor
position, the air conditioner
will automatically be turned on at outsidetemperatures above 23°F (−5°C) to defog
the windshield, and the air recirculation mode
will automatically be turned off.
Outside air is drawn into the passenger
compartment to improve the defogging per-
formance.
MANUAL OPERATION
Fan speed controlTurn the fan control dial

trol the fan speed.
Turn the dial to the AUTO position to return to
automatic control of the fan speed.
Air recirculation/Fresh airEach time the air intake button is pushed, the
indicator light on the button will alternate

lets.: Air flows mainly from defroster outlets.
To turn the system offTurn the fan control dial to the OFF position.OPERATING TIPSWhen the engine coolant temperature and out-
side air temperature are low, the air flow from the
foot outlets may not operate for a maximum of150 seconds. However, this is not a malfunction.
After the coolant temperature warms up, the air
flow from the foot outlets will operate normally.
