Heating
On cold days, use HEATER with the temperature knob
in the red area. Outside air will be brought in through
the floor outlets. The heater works best if you keep your
windows closed while using it.
If you use the optional engine coolant heater before
starting your engine, your heating system will produce
warmer air faster to heat the passenger compartment in
cold weather. See “Engine Coolant Heater” in the Index.
Defrosting
Use DEFROST to remove fog or ice from the
windshield quickly in extremely cold conditions. The
temperature knob should be in the red area and the fan
control toward high. The air conditioning compressor
may operate in this setting to dehumidify the air.
The BLEND setting is useful for cold weather with a
large number of passengers or very humid conditions to
help keep the windshield clear.
Rear Window Defogger (Option)
If your vehicle has this option, the rear window will
have lines running across the glass. These lines heat
your window.
For best results, clear the window of as much snow or
ice as possible before using the rear window defogger.
To turn on the rear window
defogger, find the button to
the left of the heater
controls with the defog
symbol on it.
Press the button until the light comes on, then release it.
The rear window defogger will only work when the
ignition is in RUN.
You can turn the defogger off at any time by pressing
the button again. The defogger will shut itself off after
several minutes so that the glass does not get too hot. If
the window still isn’t clear, turn the defogger on again.
Do not attach a temporary vehicle license, tape or decals
across the defogger grid on the rear window.
