Air flows through the floor outlets located under
the instrument panel and into the rear seating
area through vents under the front seats.
²Bi-Level
Air flows both through the outlets located in the
instrument panel and those located on the floor.

Air flows through the outlets located in the in-
strument panel.
²OFF
This position turns off the entire system.
Depress the A/C button to turn on and off the air
conditioning during manual operation only. Conditioned
outside air is then directed through the outlets selected
on the mode control dial.When the outside air contains smoke, odors, high humid-
ity, or if rapid cooling is desired you may wish to
recirculate interior air by pressing the ªRecirculateº icon
button. The recirculation mode should only be used
temporarily. The light on the A/C and ªRecirculateº icon
buttons will illuminate when these buttons are selected.
You may use these features separately or with one
another. Push in on the buttons a second time to change
the functions.
NOTE:If the interior of the windows begins to fog,
press the ªRecirculateº icon button to return to outside
air. Some temp./humidity conditions will cause captured
interior air to condense on windows and hamper visibil-
ity. For this reason, the system will not allow ªRecircu-

modes.
To provide you with maximum comfort in the automatic
mode, during cold start-ups the blower fan will remain

Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild rainy
or humid weather. To clear the windows, use the A/C,
panel, and blower controls. Direct the panel outlets
toward the side windows. Recirculate without A/C
should not be used for long periods as fogging may
occur. Interior fogging on the windshield can be quickly
removed by using the defrost mode.
