To change the air delivery settings, turn the right knob
to select one of the following:
H (Vent): This mode directs air to the instrument panel
outlets.
) (Bi-Level): This mode directs half of the air to
the instrument panel outlets, and the remaining air
to the floor outlets. Some air will be directed toward
the side windows.
6 (Floor): This mode directs most of the air to the
floor outlets with some air directed to the side window
outlets and windshield.
: (Outside Air): Press the right side of this button to
turn the outside air mode on. An indicator light comes on
to show that it is activated. Air from outside the vehicle
will circulate throughout the vehicle. The outside air mode
can be used with all modes, but it cannot be used with
the recirculation mode. Press this button to cancel the
recirculation mode.
? (Recirculation): Press the left side of the button to
turn the recirculation mode on. An indicator light comes
on to show that it is activated. The air inside the vehicle
will be recirculated through the climate control system
and the vehicle, not from outside the vehicle. This mode
is helpful when trying to limit odors from entering the
vehicle and for maximum air conditioning performance
in hot weather. The recirculation indicator light blinks
three times if you try to use recirculation in a mode in
which it cannot function.
Pressing this button will cancel the outside air mode.
When switching to the defog or defrost modes the system
automatically moves from recirculation to outside air.
When the vehicle or fan is turned off and back on, the
system defaults to outside air automatically. Only use
recirculation mode when it is needed for comfort, since
window fogging can occur.
Temperature Control: Turn the center knob clockwise
or counterclockwise to increase or decrease the
temperature inside the vehicle.
When it is cold outside 0°F (18°C) or lower, use the
engine coolant heater, if vehicle has one, to provide
warmer air faster to the vehicle. An engine coolant heater
warms the coolant the engine uses that provides heat to
warm the inside of the vehicle. For more information, see
Engine Coolant Heater on page 2-24.
# (Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn the air
conditioning system on or off. An indicator light
comes on to show it is activated.
The air-conditioning system removes moisture from the
air, so a small amount of water might drip under the
vehicle while it is idling or after the engine is turned
off is normal.
