2. Select the highest fan speed.
3. Select NC.
4. Select the coolest temperature.

Defogging and Defrosting
There are two modes to choose from to clear fog or
frost from your windshield. Use the defog mode to clear
the windows of fog or moisture and warm the
passengers. Use the defrost mode
to remove fog or
frost from the windshield more quickly.
Turn the right knob clockwise or counterclockwise
to
select defog or defrost mode.
+3 (Defog): This mode directs half of the air to the
windshield with most of the remaining air directed
to the
floor outlets and some air directed at the side windows.
When you select this mode, the system turns
off
recirculation automatically and runs the air-conditioning
compressor unless the outside temperature is at or
below freezing. The recirculation mode cannot be
selected while in the defog mode.
To help clear the side windows quickly while using air
conditioning, do the following:
1. Select the bi-level mode.
2. Select the highest fan speed.
3. Select NC.
4. Select the temperature.

9 FRONT (Defrost): This mode directs most of the
air to the windshield, with some air directed to the
floor outlets. In this mode, the system will automatically
turn
off recirculation and run the air-conditioning
compressor, unless the outside temperature is at or
below freezing. Recirculation cannot be selected while
in the defrost mode.
To help clear the windshield quickly, do the following:
1. Select the defrost mode.
2. Select the highest temperature.
3. Select the highest fan speed.
Your vehicle is equipped with side window defogger
outlets located on the outside of the side instrument
panel outlets. To help clear the side windows quickly, do
the following:
1. Select the floor mode.
2. Select the highest temperature.
3. Select the highest fan speed.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog of frost from the rear window.
REAR: Press this button to turn the rear window
defogger on or
off. An indicator light above the
button will come on to let you know that the rear window
defogger is activated. Be sure to clear as much snow
from the rear window as possible.
The rear window defogger will turn
off approximately
10 minutes after the button is pressed. If turned on
again, the defogger will only run for approximately
five minutes before turning
off. The defogger can also
be turned
off by pressing the button again or by turning
off the engine.
Notice: Don’t use anything sharp on the inside of
the rear window.
If you do, you could cut or damage
the warming grid, and the repairs wouldn’t be
covered by your warranty.

vehicle license, tape, a decal or anything similar
to the defogger grid.
