Select A/C for air to flow through
these vents:
The A/C mode directs outside air
conditioned air to flow through the
instrument panel vents. The A/C
mode can be used for heating,
ventilating or air conditioning. The
A/C mode only functions if the
outside temperature is above 10ÉC
(50ÉF).
Select MAX A/C for air to flow
through these vents:
The MAX A/C mode recirculates
the air and directs it to flow
through the instrument panel
vents. The MAX A/C mode can be
used for air conditioning or
heating. This mode is noisier but
more economical than A/C mode.
The MAX A/C mode only functions
if the outside temperature is above
10ÉC (50ÉF).
Select the OFF position for all
climate control functions to cease.
The outside inlet door will close
and the fan is shut off.
Drive with the climate control
system on (in either the heating or
air conditioning mode) to reduce
humidity in your vehicle.
