Climate Controls
Climate Control System
The heating, cooling, and ventilation of the vehicle can
be controlled with this system. Set the control
between modes to get a combination of the two modes.
Temperature: Turn the left knob on the control panel
to adjust the temperature of the air in the vehicle.
Turn the knob clockwise or counterclockwise to increase
or decrease the temperature.
#(Air Conditioning): Press the left knob on the
control panel to turn the air conditioning system
on or off. An indicator light on the button comes on
to show that the air conditioning is activated.
When the system is on, this setting cools and
dehumidifies the air entering the vehicle.
The air conditioning will not function if the fan is turned
off. If air conditioning is selected with fan off, the
indicator light flashes three times and then turns off.
There could be a slight change in engine performance
when the air conditioning compressor turns off and turns
on again. This is normal. The system is designed to
make adjustments to help with fuel economy while still
maintaining the selected temperature.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from the
air, so a small amount of water can drip underneath
your vehicle while idling or after turning off the engine.
This is normal.
Air conditioning does not operate at temperature
below 40°F (4°C). In temperatures above 40°F (4°C),
the air conditioning cannot be turned off in defrost,
floor/defog, and recirculation modes because it helps to
remove moisture from the vehicle. It also helps to
keep the windows clear.
