122Comfort and Convenience FeaturesFoot/Defrost — Air
comes from the floor
outlets, windshield defroster
outlets and side window defroster
outlets. When you select
Foot/Defrost, the A/C turns on (if
it is not already on), and outside
air is selected automatically.
Because of the automatic
operation, you will not see the
light in the A/C button. The
system goes back to your former
settings when you move the knob
to any other position.
When the windshield glass and
door glass are foggy or frosty, use
this Foot/Defrost mode to clear
off the glass while maintaining the
heating performance.
Defrost — Air is
conditioned and
delivered from the windshield
defroster outlets with a small amount delivered from the side
window defroster outlets. This
position is recommended for
conditions of severe fogging and
icing only. When you select
Defrost, the A/C turns on (if it is
not already on), and outside air is
selected automatically. Because of
the automatic operation, you will
not see the light in the A/C button.
The system goes back to your
former settings when you move
the knob to any other position.
Operating Tips – Use the heater
with the air-source selector lever
at the outside air position. This
will minimize windshield
clouding while quickly warming
the interior of the vehicle. For
best results, engage the A/C
compressor to minimize
windshield clouding. Your vehicle has a flow-through
ventilation system that provides
a supply of outside air into the
vehicle when it is moving and the
air-source selector lever is in the
outside air position. When the
vehicle is not in motion, you can
get a steady flow of outside air
with the heater or air conditioning
blower running.
With the side windows closed and
the air-source selector lever in the
outside air position, the flow-
through ventilation system
provides outside air flow into the
front air inlet grilles, through the
vehicle and out the rear air
exhaust outlet.
