1(Defrost): This mode directs most of the air to
the windshield with some air directed to the
floor vents. In this mode, the system automatically
forces outside air into the vehicle. The
air-conditioning compressor does not 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 defrost is selected. If
the air-conditioning button is pressed while in
defrost mode, the indicator light turns on. If the
button is pressed again, the light turns off.
Recirculation cannot be selected while in the
defrost mode.
To help clear the windshield quickly, do
the following:
1. Select the defrost mode.
2. Select the highest temperature.
3. Select the highest fan speed.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window.
< REAR: Press this button to turn the rear
window defogger on or off. An indicator light
comes on to show that the rear window defogger
is activated. Be sure to clear as much snow
from the rear window as possible.
If driving below 50 mph (80 km/h), the rear window
defogger turns off about 15 minutes after the
button is pressed. If turned on again, the defogger
only runs for about seven minutes before turning
off. The defogger can also be turned off by
pressing the button again or by turning off the
engine.
If your vehicle’s speed is maintained above
50 mph (80 km/h), the rear window defogger
remains on once the button is pressed.
If your vehicle has heated outside mirrors, the
surface of the outside mirrors heat when the rear
window defogger is activated. See Outside
Power Mirrors on page 135.
