3-8 Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed
for the air conditioner to work its best.
If your vehicle has the manual system, for quick
cool
-down on very hot days, use the airflow from the
panel outlets, press recirculation and air conditioning
with the temperature control in the blue area. If this max
air conditioning setting is used for long periods of time,
the air in your vehicle may become too cold and dry.
For normal cooling on hot days, use air conditioning
without recirculation with the temperature control in the
blue area.
If your vehicle has the automatic system, press the
AUTO button and the system will cool and dehumidify
the air inside the vehicle. Also while in this mode, the
system will maximize its performance by using
recirculation as necessary.
On cool, but sunny days, with the manual system or
through manual operation of the automatic system,
use bi
-level to deliver warm air to the floor and cooler
air to the instrument panel outlets. To warm or cool
the air delivered, turn the temperature control to the
desired setting.
Heating
If you have the manual system, on cold days use floor
with the temperature lever in the red area. If you have
the automatic system, press AUTO and adjust the
temperature by turning the temperature knob clockwise
or counterclockwise. You may also adjust the automatic
system manually by pressing the MODE button and
selecting floor. Again, adjust the temperature by turning
the temperature knob clockwise or counterclockwise.
With either system, outside air will be heated and sent
through the floor outlets. The heater works best if you
keep the windows closed while using it.
Defogging and Defrosting
On cool, humid days, use defog to keep the windshield
and side windows clear. Use the FRONT defrost button
to remove fog or ice from the windshield quickly in
extremely humid or cold conditions.
If your vehicle has the manual system, select defog and
adjust the fan speed to your comfort level. Turn the air
conditioning on to help dehumidify the air. Use front
defrost with the temperature toward the red area and the
fan control toward high.
