ning.

position 1 or position 3 with the tail
lights on.
The parking brake is released.

to position 2 or position 3 with the head-
lights on, or turn the ignition switch off.

If following another vehicle on a dusty
road, or driving in windy and dusty

For quick heating, select recirculated
air for a few minutes. To keep the
windows from fogging, select fresh af-
ter the vehicle interior has been
warmed.
Press the “A/C” button on for dehumidi-
fied heating.
Choose floor/windshield air flow to heat
the vehicle interior while defrosting or
defogging the windshield.
