82 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
A/C Button
Press and release the A/C button to
change the current setting. The
indicator illuminates when A/C is on.
NOTE:
For Manual Climate Controls, if the system is
in Mix, Floor or Defrost Mode, the A/C can be
turned off, but the A/C system shall remain
active to prevent fogging of the windows.
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 radi-
ator), 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 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 (button on the touchscreen greyed
out) if conditions exist that could create fogging
on the inside of the windshield. The A/C (Air
Conditioning) 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. On systems with Manual
Climate Controls, the Recirculation mode (if
equipped) 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
on the control button to blink and then turn off.
Front Defrost Button
Press and release the Front Defrost
button to change the current airflow
setting to Defrost mode. The indicator
illuminates when this feature 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. Performing this
function will cause the Automatic Temperature
Control (ATC) to switch into manual mode. If the
Front Defrost mode is turned off the climate
system will return the previous setting.
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). An
indicator will illuminate when the rear window
defroster is on. The rear window defroster
automatically turns off after 15 minutes.
