sunny days. This setting brings in the
outside air, but directs it in two ways.
The cool air is directed to the upper

warmed air is directed through the
heater ducts and a little to the defrost
and side window vents. At times this
temperature difference may be more
apparent than others.
UPPER: Press to direct air flow
through the instrument panel outlets
only.
LOWER: Press to direct 90% of the air
flow through the heater ducts, and
10%
of the air flow through the windshield
defroster vents.
DEFOG: Press to direct half the air to
the windshield, and the other half
through the heater ducts.
DEF (Defrost): Press to direct 90% of
the air to the windshield and side
window vents, and
10% to the floor.
The fan will automatically go to high.
For a lower fan speed, press the fan
switch.
