Maximum Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside
air escape; then close them. This helps reduce the
time it takes for the vehicle to cool down. It also
helps the air conditioning system operate
more efficiently.
For quick cool down on hot days, do the following:
1. Select the
C vent mode.
2. Select the highest fan speed.
3. Select
# air conditioning.
4. Select the
? recirculation mode.
5. Select the coolest temperature.
Using these settings together for long periods of
time can cause the air inside of the vehicle to
become too dry. To prevent this from happening,
after the air in the vehicle has cooled, turn the
recirculation mode off.
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 choose from to clear fog or frost
from your windshield. 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.
Turn the right knob to select the defog or
defrost mode.
-(Defog): This mode splits the air between the
windshield and the floor outlets with a small amount
directed to the side windows. When this mode is
selected, the system automatically turns off
recirculation. The air-conditioning compressor will
run unless the outside temperature is at or below
freezing. The air-conditioning compressor operates
although the indicator light is not on. The
air-conditioning indicator light turns off when defog
is selected. If the air-conditioning button is pressed
while in defog mode, the indicator light will turn on.
If the button is pressed again, the light will turn off.
The recirculation mode cannot be selected while in
the defog mode. Do not drive the vehicle until all the
windows are clear.
