Heating and Cooling
How to Use the System
This section covers the best way to
use the system for ventilation,
cooling, dehumidifying, defrosting
and heating. In most cases, the
mode and air source selections are
only recommendations. You may
prefer different settings.
Use Recirculation mode to heat or
cool the interior more quickly, or to
keep out smoke and dust. Leaving
the system in the recirculation
mode with the A/C off can cause
the windows to fog up. Switch to
Fresh Air mode as soon as the
interior reaches a comfortable
temperature or the outside smoky,
dusty condition clears.
The engine must be running for the
heater and air conditioning to pro-
vide hot and cold air. The heater
uses engine coolant to warm the air.
If the engine is cold, it will be sever-
al minutes before you feel warm air
circulating.
The air conditioning system does
not depend on engine temperature.
It can produce cold air almost
immediately.
Con trolling Air Flow Direction
Air flows into the interior at three
levels: Toward the floor
through the dash vents and
toward the windshield and side
windows . You select the air
flow level or combination of levels
with the five mode buttons.
Ventilation
Your car has a flow-through
ventilation system. Air enters the
car through vents in front of the
windshield. It circulates through
the interior then exits through
vents near the rear window. This
system provides fresh air even
when the car is standing still. To
bring in outside air, select the
Fresh Air mode. Set the fan at a
comfortable speed.
