On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside air
escape; then close them. This helps to reduce the time
it takes for your vehicle to cool down. It also helps
the system to operate more efficiently.
The air-conditioning system removes moisture from the
air, so you may sometimes notice a small amount of
water dripping underneath your vehicle while idling
or after turning off the engine. This is normal.Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high humidity
(moisture) condensing on the cool window glass. This
can be minimized if the climate control system is used
properly. There are two modes to clear fog or frost from
your windshield. Use the defog mode to clear the
windows of fog or moisture and warm the passengers.
Use the defrost mode to remove fog or frost from the
windshield more quickly.

windshield, side windows, instrument panel outlets and
the oor outlets. The air-conditioning compressor will run
automatically in this setting without pressing A/C, unless
the outside temperature is at or below 32°F (0°C).
1(Defrost):This mode directs the air to the
windshield, instrument panel outlets and the side
windows. The air-conditioning compressor will run
automatically in this setting without pressing A/C, unless
the outside temperature is at or below 32°F (0°C).
