Climate Controls 8-5
# (Air Conditioning): Press
to turn the air conditioning (A/C)
compressor on and off. An indicator
light comes on to show that the air
conditioning is on.
Pressing this button when the
outside temperature is too cool for
air conditioning will make the air
conditioning indicator flash 3 times
and then turn off indicating the air
conditioning mode is not available.
If the air conditioning is on and the
outside temperature drops below a
temperature which is too cool for air
conditioning to be effective, the air
conditioning light turns off to show
that the air conditioning mode has
been canceled.
On hot days, open the windows long
enough to let hot inside air escape.
This helps to reduce the time it
takes for the vehicle to cool down.
It also helps the system to operate
more efficiently.
The air conditioning system
removes moisture from the air,
so a small amount of water might
drip under the vehicle while idling or
after turning off the engine. This is
normal.
@ (Recirculation): Press to turn
the recirculation mode on or off.
An indicator light comes on to show
that the recirculation is on.
This mode recirculates and helps
to quickly cool the air inside the
vehicle. It can be used to help
prevent outside air and odors
from entering the vehicle.
The recirculation mode cannot be
used with floor, defog, or defrost
modes. If recirculation is selected
with one of those modes, the
indicator light flashes three times
and then turns off. The air
conditioning compressor also comes
on when this mode is activated.
While in recirculation mode the
windows may fog when the weather
is cold and damp. To clear the fog,
select either the defog or defrost
mode and increase the fan speed.
The recirculation mode can also be
turned off by turning off the ignition.
REAR (Rear Climate Control): For
vehicles with the rear heating and
air conditioning controls. Press the
REAR button to turn the rear climate
control system on or off. See Rear
Climate Control System (Rear
Climate with Rear Seat Audio) on
page 8‑6.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a
warming grid to remove fog from the
rear window.
