OFF – Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate. For short

periods of time only, use this mode to prevent undesirable odors from

entering the vehicle.

(Panel and floor) – Distributes outside air through the

instrument panel registers and the floor ducts. Heating and air

conditioning capabilities are provided in this mode. For added

customer comfort, when the temperature control knob is anywhere in

between the full hot and full cold positions, the air distributed through

the floor ducts will be slightly warmer than the air sent to the

instrument panel registers.

(Floor) – Distributes outside air through the floor ducts.

However, the air will not be cooled below the outside temperature

because the air conditioning does not operate in this mode.

(Floor and defrost) – Distributes outside air through the

windshield defroster ducts and the floor ducts. Heating and air

conditioning capabilities are provided in this mode. For added

customer comfort, the air distributed through the floor ducts will be

slightly warmer than the air sent to the windshield defroster ducts. If

the temperature is about 6°C (43°F) or higher, the air conditioner will

automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.

(Defrost) – Distributes outside air through the windshield

defroster ducts. It can be used to clear ice or fog from the windshield.

If the temperature is about 6°C (43°F) or higher, the air conditioner

will automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.

Operating tips

In humid weather conditions, place the climate control system in

Defrost mode before driving. This will reduce fogging on your

windshield. Once the windshield has been cleared, operate the climate

control system as desired.

To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle in cold weather

conditions, don’t drive with the climate control system in the OFF or

MAX A/C position.

To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle in warm weather

conditions, don’t drive with the climate control system in the OFF

position.

Under normal weather conditions, your vehicle’s climate control

system should be left in any position other than the MAX A/C or OFF

when the vehicle is parked. This allows the vehicle to “breathe”

through the outside air inlet duct.
