Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or any
other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater and
defroster will work far better, reducing the chance of
fogging the inside
of your windows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, move the fan
control lever toward the fan symbol for a few moments
before driving off. This helps clear the intake ducts of
snow and moisture, and reduces the chance
of fogging
the inside of your windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats clear of objects.
This helps air to circulate throughout your vehicle.
Defogging and Defrosting
Slide the air intake lever to CIRCULATE and the
airflow lever to DEFROST to direct air to the
windshield vents.
Then slide the temperature control
lever toward the right and the fan lever toward the fan
symbol. When the windshield
is clear, turn down the
fan speed.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid
to
remove fog from the
rear window.
Press the switch to turn
on the defogger. An indicator
light will come on below the switch to remind you that
the defogger is on. Press the switch again to turn the
defogger
off. The rear window defogger will also turn
off
if you turn the ignition switch to ACC or LOCK, but
will turn
back on when the ignition is turned back on.
Do not attach anything like a temporary vehicle license
or
a decal across the defogger grid on the rear window.
