conditioning with the recirculated air
position selected, will result in excessive-
ly dry air in the passenger compart-
ment.
WARNING
Continued use of the climate con-
trol system operation in the recir-
culated air position may allow
humidity to increase inside vehi-
cle which may fog the glass and
obscure visibility.
Do not sleep in a vehicle with air conditioning or heating system
on. It may cause serious harm or
death due to a drop in the oxygen
level and/or body temperature.
Continued use of the climate con- trol system operation in the
reciruclated air position can
cause drowsiness or sleepiness,
and loss of vehicle control. Set
the air intake control to the out-
side (fresh) air position as much
as possible while driving.
