Operating tips
To reduce fog build-up on the windshield during humid weather,
select
(defrost) or (floor/defrost).
To reduce humidity build-up inside the vehicle, do not drive with the
system off or with
(recirculated air) engaged and A/C off.
Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
To improve the time to reach comfort in hot weather, drive with the
windows slightly open for 2-3 minutes after start-up or until the
vehicle has been “aired out.”
A small amount of air may be felt from the floor vent regardless of the
air distribution setting that is selected.
