Operating tips
• Keep the windows closed while the air
conditioner is in operation.
• After parking in the sun, drive for 2 or 3
minutes with the windows open to vent
hot air from the passenger compart-
ment. Then, close the windows. This al-
lows the air conditioner to cool the inte-
rior more quickly.
• The air conditioning system should be
operated for approximately 10 minutes at
least once a month. This helps prevent
damage to the system due to lack of lu-
brication.
• A visible mist may be seen coming from
the ventilators in hot, humid conditions
as the air is cooled rapidly. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
• If the engine coolant temperature gauge
indicates engine coolant temperature
over the normal range, turn the air condi-
tioner off. For additional information, see
“If your vehicle overheats” (P. 6-11).
• When Remote Engine Start (if so
equipped) is activated, the manual cli-
mate control system will default to the
last used heating or cooling mode.
