Defrost
Air is directed through the windshield and side
window demist outlets. Use this mode with maxi-
mum fan and temperature (Hot) settings for best wind-
shield and side window defrosting.
NOTE: The air conditioning compressor operates in
both Mix and Defrost or a blend of these modes even if
the fan switch is not in the A/C position. This dehumidi-
fies the air to help dry the windshield. To improve fuel
economy, use these modes only when necessary.
Circulation Control
Press the mode control knob
to activate the recirculation
mode. A lamp (in the knob)
will illuminate when you are

knob again to deactivate the
system. Only use the recircu-
lation mode to temporarily
block out any outside odors,
smoke, or dust and to cool the
interior rapidly upon initial start up in very hot or humid
weather.
NOTE: Continuous use of the recirculation mode may
make the inside air stuffy and window fogging may
occur. Extended use of this mode is not recommended.
In cold or damp weather, the use of the recirculation
mode will cause windows to fog on the inside because of
