?(Recirculation): Press the left side of the
button to turn the recirculation mode on. When
recirculation mode is selected, the air inside the
vehicle will be recirculated through the climate
control system and the vehicle, not from outside
your vehicle. This mode is helpful when you are
trying to limit odors from entering your vehicle and
for maximum air conditioning performance in hot
weather. When the button is pressed, an indicator
light above the button will come on to let you know
that it is activated. The recirculation indicator light
will blink three times if you try to use recirculation in
a mode that it can not be used in. Only use this
mode when it is needed for comfort, since window
fogging will rapidly occur if the air conditioning
compressor is not engaged.
Pressing this button will cancel the outside air
mode. When you switch to the defog or defrost
modes the system will automatically move from
recirculation to outside air. When the vehicle or fan
is turned off and back on, the system will default to
outside air automatically. Only use recirculation
mode when it is needed for comfort, since window
fogging may occur.
Temperature Control: Turn the center knob
clockwise or counterclockwise to increase
or decrease the temperature inside your vehicle.
When it’s cold outside 0°F (18°C) or lower,
use the engine coolant heater, if equipped, to
provide warmer air faster to your vehicle. An
engine coolant heater warms the coolant that the
engine uses to provide heat to warm the inside
of your vehicle. For more information, see Engine
Coolant Heater on page 125.
#(Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn
the air conditioning system on or off. When the air
conditioning button is pressed, an indicator light will
come on to let you know that air conditioning is
activated.
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.
