MAX A/C Button
Press and release the MAX A/C button on the
touchscreen to change the current setting to
the coldest output of air. MAX A/C sets the
control for maximum cooling performance.
The MAX A/C indicator illuminates when MAX A/C is on.
Performing this function again will cause the MAX A/C
operation to switch into manual mode and the MAX A/C
indicator will turn off.
NOTE:
The MAX A/C button is only available on the touchscreen.
A/C Button
Press and release this button on the
touchscreen, or push the button on the
faceplate to change the current setting.
The A/C indicator illuminates when A/C is ON.
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the operator to
manually activate or deactivate the air conditioning
system. When the air conditioning system is turned on,
cool dehumidified air will flow through the outlets into
the cabin.
NOTE:
If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side glass,
select Defrost mode, and increase blower speed if
needed.
If your air conditioning performance seems lower than
expected, check the front of the A/C condenser
(located in front of the radiator), for an accumulation of
dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle water spray from the
front of the radiator and through the condenser.
Recirculation Button
Press and release this button on the
touchscreen, or push the button on the
faceplate to change the system between
recirculation mode and outside air mode. The
Recirculation indicator and the A/C indicator illuminate
when the Recirculation button is pressed. Recirculation
can be used when outside conditions such as smoke,
odors, dust, or high humidity are present. Recirculation
can be used in all modes. Recirculation may be
unavailable (button on the touchscreen grayed out) if
conditions exist that could create fogging on the inside of
the windshield. The A/C can be deselected manually
without disturbing the mode control selection. Continuous
use of the Recirculation mode may make the inside air
stuffy and window fogging may occur. Extended use of this
mode is not recommended. Recirculation mode may
automatically adjust to optimize customer experience for
warming, cooling, dehumidification, etc.
AUTO Button
Press and release this button on the
touchscreen, or push the button on the
faceplate, to change the current setting. The
AUTO indicator illuminates when AUTO is on.
This feature automatically controls the interior cabin
temperature by adjusting distribution and blower speed.
Air conditioning (A/C) may be active during AUTO
operation to improve performance. AUTO Mode is highly
recommended for efficiency. Toggling this function will
cause the system to switch between manual mode and
automatic mode
Ú page 60.
Front Defrost
Turn the Mode control knob to Front Defrost to
change the current airflow setting to Defrost
mode. The Front Defrost indicator illuminates
when Front Defrost is on. Air comes from the
windshield and side window demist outlets. When the
defrost button is selected, the blower level may increase.
Use Defrost mode with maximum temperature settings for
best windshield and side window defrosting and
defogging. When toggling the front defrost mode button,
the Climate Control system will return to the previous
setting.
Rear Defrost Button
Press and release the Rear Defrost Control
button on the touchscreen, or push and release
the button on the faceplate to turn on the rear
window defroster and the heated outside
mirrors (if equipped). The Rear Defrost indicator
illuminates when the rear window defroster is on. The rear
window defroster automatically turns off after 10 minutes.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause damage to
the heating elements:
Use care when washing the inside of the rear
window. Do not use abrasive window cleaners on the
interior surface of the window. Use a soft cloth and a
mild washing solution, wiping parallel to the heating
elements. Labels can be peeled off after soaking
with warm water.
