((Heated Seats): Press this button to turn the driver
or passenger heated seats on and off. See Heated
Seats on page 1-3 for additional information.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high
humidity (moisture) condensing on the cool window
glass. This can be minimized if the climate control
system is used properly. There are two modes to clear
fog or frost from your windshield. Use the floor/defog
mode to clear the windows of fog or moisture and warm
the passengers. Use defrost to remove fog or frost
from the windshield more quickly.
-(Floor/Defog): Press this button to direct the
air between the windshield, floor outlets and side
windows. When you select this mode, the system
turns recirculation off and runs the air conditioning
compressor unless the outside temperature is near
or below freezing. Pressing the recirculation button
will have no effect other than turning on the indicator
light while in floor/defog mode.
1(Defrost): Press this button to direct most of the
air to the windshield, with some air directed to the side
windows. In this mode, the system will automatically
turn off the recirculation and run the air conditioning
compressor, unless the outside temperature is near or
below freezing. Pressing the recirculation button will
have no effect other than turning on the indicator light
while in defrost mode.
Do not drive the vehicle until all windows are clear.
Sensors
The solar sensor on the vehicle monitors the solar heat
and the air inside of the vehicle. This information is
used to maintain the selected temperature by initiating
needed adjustments to the temperature, the fan
speed, and the air delivery system. The system may
also supply cooler air to the side of the vehicle facing
the sun. The recirculation mode will also be activated,
as necessary. Do not cover the solar sensor located
in the center of the instrument panel, near the
windshield, or the system will not work properly.
