GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 31
Recirculation mode may make the inside air stuffy
and window fogging may occur. Extended use of
this mode is not recommended.
On systems with Manual Climate Controls, if
equipped, the Recirculation mode is not allowed in
Defrost mode to improve window clearing
operation. Recirculation is disabled automatically
if this mode is selected. Attempting to use
Recirculation while in this mode causes the LED in
the control button to blink and then turns off.
Front Defrost Mode
Turn the mode control knob to the Front
Defrost position. 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.
Rear Defrost Button
Push and release the Rear Defrost
Control button 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 20 minutes.
Temperature Control
Temperature Control regulates the temperature of
the air forced through the climate system.
The temperature increases as you turn
the temperature control knob clockwise.
The temperature decreases as you turn
the temperature control knob
counterclockwise.
Blower Control
Blower Control regulates the amount of
air forced through the climate system.
There are seven blower speeds
available. The blower speed increases
as you turn the blower control knob clockwise from
the lowest blower setting. The blower speed
decreases as you turn the blower control knob
counterclockwise.
NOTE:
Depending on the configuration, your vehicle may
be equipped with four blower speeds.
Mode Control
Turn the mode control knob to change
the airflow distribution mode. The
airflow distribution mode can be
adjusted so air comes from the
instrument panel outlets, floor outlets, defrost
outlets and demist outlets.
Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the
instrument panel. Each of these outlets
can be individually adjusted to direct the
flow of air. The air vanes of the center
outlets and outboard outlets can be moved up and
down or side to side to regulate airflow direction.
There is a shut-off wheel located below the air
vents to shut off or adjust the amount of airflow
from these outlets.
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.
Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or
abrasive window cleaners on the interior
surface of the window.
Keep all objects a safe distance from the
window.
