On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside air
escape; then close them. This helps to reduce the time
it takes for your vehicle to cool down. It also helps
the system to operate more efficiently.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from the
air, so you may sometimes notice a small amount of
water dripping underneath your vehicle while idling
or after turning off the engine. This is normal.
# MAX (Maximum Air Conditioning): Turn the right
knob to this position for maximum air conditioning.
This will select air conditioning and recirculation
for maximum cooling of your vehicle.
Recirculation: This mode keeps outside air from
coming in the vehicle. It can be used to prevent outside
air and odors from entering your vehicle or help heat
or cool the air inside your vehicle more quickly.
This mode will automatically be selected when you
select maximum air conditioning.
( (Heated Seats): Press this button to turn on the
heated seats. The button on the left controls the driver’s
seat and the button on the right controls the passenger’s
seat. See Heated Seats on page 1-3 for additional
information.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high humidity,
or moisture, condensing on the cool window glass.
This can be minimized if the climate control system is
used properly. There are two modes 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 directs air to the windshield
and the floor outlets. When you select this mode,
the system runs the air conditioning compressor unless
the outside temperature is at or below freezing. The
recirculation mode cannot be selected while in the
defog mode.
0 (Defrost): This mode directs most of the air to the
windshield and the side window outlets, with some air
directed to the floor outlets. In this mode, the system will
automatically run the air conditioning compressor,
unless the outside temperature is at or below freezing.
Recirculation cannot be selected while in the
defrost mode.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows are clear.
