MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROL
DESCRIPTIONS AND FUNCTIONS
MAX A/C Setting
Set the temperature control knob to the MAX
A/C setting to change the current setting to
the coldest output of air. Moving the tem-
perature control knob away from the MAX
A/C setting causes the MAX A/C operation to exit.
A/C Button
Push the A/C button to engage the Air Condi-
tioning (A/C). The A/C indicator illuminates
when A/C is on.
Recirculation Button
Push the Recirculation button to change the
system between recirculation mode and out-
side 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 humidity are present. Recirculation can be
used in all modes except for Defrost. Recirculation may
be unavailable if conditions exist that could create fog-
ging on the inside of the windshield. The A/C can be
deselected manually without disturbing the mode con-
trol selection. Continuous use of the Recirculation
mode may make the inside air stuffy and window fog-
ging may occur. Extended use of this mode is not
recommended.
On vehicles equipped with the Manual Climate Controls
system, the Recirculation mode 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 in the control button to link, and
then turn off.
Front Defrost Setting
Turn the mode control knob to the Front
Defrost mode setting. 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 maxi-
mum temperature settings for best windshield and side
window defrosting and defogging.
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).
The Rear Defrost indicator illuminates when
the rear window defroster is on. The rear window
defroster automatically turns off after 10 minutes.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause damage to
the heating elements:
•
Use care when washing the inside of the rear win-
dow. Do not use abrasive window cleaners on the
interior surface of the window. Use a soft cloth and
a mild washing solution, wiping parallel to the
heating elements. Labels can be peeled off after
soaking with warm water.
•
Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or abra-
sive window cleaners on the interior surface of the
window.
•
Keep all objects a safe distance from the window.
