Defrost Mode
Air comes from the windshield and side window demist
outlets. Use this setting when necessary to defrost your
windshield and side windows.NOTE:For improved safety, the compressor is activated
and the recirculation mode is deactivated when Mix or
Defrost modes are selected. This is done to assist in
drying the air and it will help in keeping the windows
from fogging.

blower control to any speed and press the A/C
button which is located next to the recirculation
button. An indicator light on the A/C button shows that

NOTE:
²The compressor will not engage until the engine has
been running for a few seconds.
²If your air conditioning performance seems lower than
expected, check the A/C air filter (ATC equipped
vehicles only) and the front of the A/C condenser for
an accumulation of dirt or insects. The A/C condenser
is located in front of the radiator. The A/C air filter is
located under the instrument panel on the passenger
side.
²Fabric type fascia protectors tend to block the amount
of air to the condenser and may reduce air condition-
ing performance.
Economy Mode
If economy mode is desired, press the A/C button to turn
off the indicator light, and the A/C compressor. Move the
temperature control lever to the desired temperature.
Recirculation Control
Press the recirculation button to recirculate the
air inside the vehicle. This is located next to the
A/C button. An indicator light on the button
shows that air is being recirculated. Use the
recirculation mode to rapidly cool the inside of the
vehicle. The recirculation mode can also be used to
temporarily block out outside odors, smoke, and dust.
NOTE:
²When the ignition switch is turned OFF, the recircula-
tion feature will be cancelled.
²In cold weather, use of the Recirculation mode may
lead to excessive window fogging. The Recirculation
mode is not allowed in the Mix and Defrost modes to
improve window clearing operation. Recirculation
will be disabled automatically if these modes are
selected.
