There is also an interior temperature sensor
located below the climate control system next to
the steering wheel.
There is also an ambient sensor located behind
the grille in front of the vehicle.
These sensors help the climate control system
automatically control the temperature setting. The
system can supply cooler air to the side of the
vehicle facing the sun. The recirculation mode will
also be used as needed to maintain cool outlet
temperatures.
Do not cover any of the sensors or the climate
control system might not work properly.
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 from the windshield.
W (Floor/Defog): Use this mode to clear the
windows of fog and warm the passengers.
The system turns off recirculation and runs the air
conditioning compressor unless the outside
temperature is at or below freezing. If recirculation
mode is selected while using the defog mode,
the system recirculates air initially but returns to
the fresh air mode after 10 minutes.
0 (Defrost): Use this mode to remove fog or
frost from the windshield more quickly. When
selected, the system turns off recirculation
and runs the air conditioning compressor, unless
the outside temperature is at or below freezing.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows are
clear.
