The air conditioning compressor can operate in all modes except OFF.
However, the air conditioning will only function if the outside
temperature is about 2°C (35°F) or higher.
Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the air
during operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under
the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you
have stopped the vehicle.
• Airflow direction control
(panel) — Distributes air through the instrument panel.
(panel/floor) — Distributes air through the instrument panel and
the front floor ducts. For added customer comfort, the air distributed
through the floor ducts may be slightly warmer than the air sent to the
instrument panel registers.
(floor) — Distributes air through the front floor ducts. The system
will allow some airflow out the defroster ducts, the demister outlets and
outer instrument panel registers.
(floor/defrost) — Distributes air through the windshield defroster
ducts, the demister outlets and the front floor ducts. The system will
allow some airflow out of the outer instrument panel registers. For added
customer comfort, the air distributed through the floor ducts may be
slightly warmer than the air sent to the windshield defroster ducts. If the
outside temperature is about 2°C (35°F) or higher, the air conditioner
will automatically dehumidify the air to reduce window fogging. (Note
that the A/C indicator does not illuminate when this mode is selected.)
Recirculation and A/C override controls can be selected.
(defrost) — Distributes outside air through the windshield
defroster ducts and the demister outlets. It can be used to clear ice or
fog from the windshield. The system will allow some airflow out of the
outer instrument panel registers. If the outside temperature is about 2°C
(35°F) or higher, the air conditioner will automatically dehumidify the air
to reduce window fogging. Recirculation and A/C override controls
cannot be selected. Note that the A/C indicator does not illuminate
when this mode is selected.
• Turn DATC off
OFF-Outside air is kept out. The fan, heating and air conditioning will
