For quick cool down on hot days, do the following:
1. Select the vent mode.
2. Select recirculation mode.
3. Select the air conditioning to on.
4. Select the coolest temperature.
5. Select the highest fan speed.
Using these settings together for long periods of time
may cause the air inside of your vehicle to become too
dry. To prevent this from happening, after the air in
your vehicle has cooled, turn the recirculation mode off.

to control the fan speed. Turn the knob clockwise
or counterclockwise to increase or decrease the fan
speed.

the fan off.
? (Recirculation): Press the center knob on the
control panel to recirculate air inside the vehicle
and prevent outside air from coming in. It can be used
to prevent outside odors from entering your vehicle
and cool the air inside your vehicle more quickly. Press
this button to turn the recirculation mode on or off.
An indicator light on the button will come on to let you
know the recirculation mode is activated.
Recirculation is available in the bi-level and vent modes.
If recirculation is selected in either floor/heat, floor/defog,
or defrost mode, the LED light will flash three times
indicating it is not available in that mode.

airflow inside your vehicle. Turn the knob to select
one of the following modes:
H (Vent): Turn the right knob on the control panel to
this mode to direct air to the instrument panel outlets.
\(Bi-Level): Turn the right knob on the control panel
to this mode to direct air to the instrument panel
outlets, and the remaining air to the floor outlets and the
defroster and side window outlets. Cooler air is
directed to the upper outlets and warmer air to the floor
outlets.
[ (Floor): Turn the right knob on the control panel to
this mode to direct most of the air to the floor outlets.
The remaining air is directed to the side window
and defroster outlets. Recirculation is not available in
this mode. If low or no airflow is on the passenger side,
ensure that the carpet covering is tucked under floor
outlets.
