3-3 Air Conditioner Controls (Option)
JE±13±9999±X
The air conditioning
system uses the same
controls as described
previously. The
function of each lever
is explained under
ªClimate Control
Systemº in this part.
The incoming
air is cooled and
dehumidified instead
of being heated.
Push the A/C button to change your comfort control
system from heating to air conditioning. A light will
come on when the air conditioning is on. The A/C
button can also control the humidity in your vehicle.The air conditioner works best if you keep your
windows closed. On very hot days, open the windows
just long enough for the hot air to escape.
For normal cooling, push the A/C button and move the
air intake lever to OUTSIDE AIR. For faster cooling,
move the lever to RECIRCULATE. Then move the
airflow lever to VENT, the temperature control lever
toward the left and the fan control lever toward the
fan symbol.
On days when it is raining or the humidity is high,
follow these dehumidifying steps to help clean windows
that are cloudy with moisture. Move the air intake lever
to OUTSIDE AIR. Move the airflow lever to DEFROST
and the fan control lever toward the fan symbol. Adjust
the temperature control lever to a comfortable setting.
The air conditioning compressor will run automatically
when the air flow lever is in DEFOG or DEFROST.

3-4 Heating
For the quickest results, move the air intake lever to
RECIRCULATE. Move the airflow lever to FLOOR, the
temperature control lever toward the right for warmer
air and the fan control lever toward the fan symbol. You
should switch to OUTSIDE AIR once in a while to
avoid stale air and cloudy windows.
Defogging and Defrosting
Slide the air intake lever to OUTSIDE AIR 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 (If Equipped)
JE±13±0002±X
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 on the switch will come on to remind you that the
defogger is on. The rear window defogger will turn
itself off after about 15 minutes. You can also turn it off
by pressing the switch again.
Do not attach anything like a temporary vehicle license
or a decal across the defogger grid on the rear window.
