A/C
PURGE
If
your vehicle is sitting out
on
a
hot day and
you
have it
set
on
AUTO,
the air will first
flow
out
the
floor air ducts for a
few
seconds. That is
normal. This is
to
expel hot air
in
the air ducts.
As
the air is cooled, the
flow will move through the
A/C
outlets.
If
you
start your vehicle with the
fan setting on
HI
it
will
skip the
A/C
Purge.
COLD WEATHER PURGE
On
cold days when your system
is
first turned on,
in
either the
AUTO
or
ECON
setting, and
the
fan setting
is
not
on
H1,
a
small
amount
of
air will
flow through the defroster duct while
the
system
is
waiting
for
the engine
coolant
to
warm up enough to provide hcat.
This
prevents your breath
from fogging your windshield.
As
the coolant warms
up,
the
blower fan
speed will gradually increase and air will
flow
from the heater outlets,
with some airflow
to
the
windshield
to
prevent fogging under most normal
conditions.
MANUALLY RECIRCULATE INSIDE AIR
There
may
be times when you want less
air
from thc outside.
To
recirculate
the
air from
the
insidc,
in
the
AUTO
setting, just set the
temperature
to
60"
F
(36"
C)
and adjust your
fan
speed.
DEFOG
Press this button
to
divide the
air
between
the
windshield and the heater
ducts.

is useful when
fog
appears
on
the windshield
or
side glass due
to sudden rain or snowy conditions.
