H(Vent): Use this mode to direct air to the
instrument panel outlets.
)(Bi-Level): Use this mode to direct half of the
air to the instrument panel outlets, and the
remaining air to the floor outlets.
6(Floor): Use this mode to direct most of the
air to the floor outlets with some air directed to the
side window outlets.
The right knob can also be used to select defog or
defrost modes. Information on defogging and
defrosting can be found later in this section.
:(Outside Air): Press the right side of this
button to turn the outside air mode on. Air
from outside the vehicle will circulate throughout
the vehicle. When the button is pressed, an
indicator light comes on. The outside air mode can
be used with all modes, but it cannot be used
with the recirculation mode. Pressing this button
will cancel the recirculation mode.
?(Recirculation): Press the left side of the
button to turn the recirculation mode on. The
air inside the vehicle recirculates through
the climate control system and the vehicle, not
from outside your vehicle. This mode is helpful
when trying to limit odors from entering the vehicle
and for maximum air conditioning performance
in hot weather. When the button is pressed,
an indicator light above the button comes on. The
recirculation indicator light blinks three times if
you try to use recirculation in a mode in which it
cannot function. Only use this mode when it
is needed for comfort, since window fogging
rapidly occurs if the air conditioning compressor is
not engaged.
Pressing this button cancels the auto recirculation
feature. Each time the vehicle is started, the
system reverts to the auto recirculation function.
If you select recirculation while in defrost, defog or
floor, the light on the button flashes three times
and then goes out to indicate that this is not
allowed. This is to prevent window fogging.
When the weather is cool or damp, operating the
system in recirculation for extended periods of
time can cause fogging of the vehicle’s windows.
To clear the fog, select either defog or defrost.
Make sure the air conditioning is on. Allow the air
conditioning to run automatically to help
dehumidify the air.
