outside air mode can be used with all modes, but it
cannot be used with the recirculation mode. Pressing
this button will cancel the recirculation mode.
@(Recirculation): Press this button to turn on the
recirculation mode. An indicator light in the button comes
on to show that it is activated. The air inside the
vehicle will be recirculated through the climate control
system and the vehicle, not from outside the vehicle.
This mode can be used to prevent outside air and odors
from entering the vehicle or to help heat or cool the
air inside the vehicle more quickly. Avoid using
the recirculation mode during high periods of humidity
and cool outside temperatures since this may result
in increased window fogging. If window fogging is
experienced, select the defrost mode.
Recirculation mode is not available in floor, defog or
defrost modes and will shut off automatically and change
to outside air. If the button is selected in these modes,
the indicator will flash. This helps prevent window
fogging and moisture building up within the cabin.
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 the windshield and side windows. Use the defog
mode to clear the windows of fog or moisture and warm
the passengers. Use the defrost mode to remove fog or
frost from the windshield more quickly. For best
results, clear all snow and ice from the windshield before
defrosting.
When using the automatic mode setting, the system will
automatically use the defog or defrost modes as
needed.
Manually turn the right knob to select the defog or
defrost mode.
-(Defog): This mode directs air to the windshield,
side window outlets and floor outlets. When this mode is
selected, the system will turn recirculation mode off
and run the air conditioning compressor unless
the outside air is at or below freezing. Recirculation
mode cannot be selected while in defog mode.
This helps prevent window fogging and moisture building
up within the cabin.
0(Defrost): This mode directs most of the air to the
windshield, with some air directed to the side window
outlets and the floor outlets. When this mode is selected,
the system will turn recirculation mode off automatically
and will run the air conditioning compressor unless
the outside air is at or below freezing. Recirculation
mode cannot be selected while in defrost mode. This
helps prevent window fogging and moisture building
up within the cabin.
