Climate Controls Description
Icon Description
MAX A/C Setting
Set the Temperature Control Knob to the MAX A/C Setting, to change the current setting to the coldest output of air. Moving
the Temperature Control Knob away from the MAX A/C setting causes the MAX A/C operation to exit.
A/C Button
Push the A/C button to engage the Air Conditioning (A/C). The A/C indicator illuminates when A/C is on.
Recirculation Button
Push and release this button 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 except
for Defrost. Recirculation may be unavailable 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.
Front Defrost Setting
Turn the Mode Control knob to the Defrost mode setting. 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 15 minutes.
