@ (Recirculate): This mode keeps outside air from
coming in the vehicle. It can be used to prevent outside
air and odors from entering your vehicle or to help heat or
cool the air inside your vehicle more quickly. An indicator
light will come on in this mode. Operation in this mode
during periods of high humidity and cool outside
temperatures may result in increased window fogging. If
window fogging is experienced, select the defrost mode.
Recirculation mode is not available in floor, defog or
defrost modes and will shut off automatically and change
to outside air until a mode other than floor, defog or
defrost is selected. This is designed to limit fogging in
your vehicle.
#(Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn the air
conditioning system on or off. When this button is
pressed, an indicator light above the button will come
on to let you know the air conditioning is activated.
Air conditioning can be selected in any mode as long as
the fan switch is on.
On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside air
escape; then close them. This helps to reduce the time
it takes for your vehicle to cool down. It also helps
the system to operate more efficiently.
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.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high humidity
(moisture) condensing on the cool window glass. This
can be minimized if the climate control system is used
properly. There are two modes to clear fog or frost from
your windshield and side windows. Use the defog mode
to clear the windows of fog or moisture and warm the
passengers. Use the defrost mode to remove fog or frost
from the windshield more quickly. For best results, clear
all snow and ice from the windshield before defrosting.
Turn the right knob to select the defog or defrost mode.
-(Defog): This mode directs air to the windshield,
side window outlets and floor outlets. When you select
this mode, the system will turn recirculation mode
off automatically and will run the air conditioning
compressor unless the outside air is at or below
freezing. Recirculation mode cannot be selected while in
defog mode. To defog the windows faster, turn the
temperature knob clockwise to the warmest setting.
0(Defrost): This mode directs most of the air to the
windshield, with some air directed to the side window
outlets and the floor outlets. When you select this mode,
the system will turn recirculation mode off automatically
and will run the air conditioning compressor unless
the outside air is at or below freezing. Recirculation
mode cannot be selected while in defrost mode.
To defrost the windows faster, turn the temperature
knob clockwise to the warmest setting.
