Manual Climate Control
15
Note: Applies to Manual and Automatic Climate Control Systems: With any type
of defroster operation (even in the FLOOR mode where some air goes to defrost to
keep the windows defrosted), the system turns on the A /C and selects the FRESH AIR
mode. This helps defrost the windows more efficiently by dehumidifying the air. The
A /C will always be on in defroster mode, but the defroster (and floor) will deliver warm
air when the temperature dial is set to a warmer temperature and the engine warms up.
