come on to let you know the feature is in use. Press the

audio system, to change your comfort control system to
air conditioning. An indicator light will come on when
the air conditioning is on. Air conditioning can also
control the humidity in your vehicle. The incoming air is
cooled and dehumidified.
The air conditioner works best if you keep your
windows closed. On very hot days, open the windows
just long enough for the hot air to escape.
For normal cooling, press the A/C button and make sure
to use outside air. For faster cooling, also press the
recirculate button. Then move the mode knob to vent
and turn the temperature control knob counterclockwise.
Turn the fan knob to HI.
On days when it is raining or the humidity is high,
follow these dehumidifying steps instead of the cooling
directions. It will help clean windows that are cloudy
with moisture.

2. Turn the mode knob to defrost. Recirculate will be off.
3. Turn the fan knob to HI and adjust the temperature
knob to a comfortable setting.

For the quickest results, press the recirculate button
and move the mode knob to the floor setting. Turn the
temperature knob clockwise for warmer air and turn the
fan knob toward HI. You should switch to outside air
once in a while to avoid stale air and fogging windows.
To prevent cold air from blowing in and to increase
air flow to the floor area, you may close the outer
instrument panel vents.
You may want to use bi
-level mode on cool but sunny
days. This setting directs outside air toward your body
and warmer air toward your feet. Using outside air, turn
the mode knob to bi
-level. Turn the temperature knob
counterclockwise and the fan knob toward HI.
Defogging and Defrosting
When the mode knob is turned to either the defog or
defrost mode, outside air will be selected automatically.
Outside air will clear the windshield more quickly.
Turn the temperature knob clockwise and the fan knob
toward HI. When the windshield is clear, turn down
the fan speed.
If you wish to return to the recirculate mode, the
recirculate button can be set when the mode knob is
set on full defog or full defrost. The indicator light will
come on.

Recirculate cannot be set partway between floor and
defog, and

recirculate cannot be set partway between defog
and defrost.
When the mode knob is turned to another position,
outside air will be selected automatically. To defog the
windshield and side windows, use outside air and turn
the mode knob to defog.
