The indicator light (A) will come on when you press the elec-
tric rear window defogger switch. Electric current will flow

defogger will turn off.
If you need the defogger for more than 20 minutes, press the
switch again. This will add 20 more minutes.

also be removed from the outside rearview mirrors when
the rear window defogger switch is pressed. (Refer to

has started and is running. Be sure to turn the
defogger switch off immediately after the window is
clear to save on battery power.


Do not place stickers, tape, or other items that are
attached with adhesive over the grid wires on the
rear window.


When cleaning the inside rear window, use a soft
cloth and wipe lightly over the grid wires.

N00737200238
Normally, use the outside air position to keep the windshield
and side windows clear and to quickly remove fog or frost
from the windshield.
To change the air selection, simply press the air selection
switch. A sound will be made every time you press the switch.

Outside air {Indicator light (A) OFF}
Outside air is introduced into the passenger compartment.


Recirculated air {Indicator light (A) ON}
Air is recirculated inside the passenger compartment.When the air conditioning turns on, the air selection is con-
trolled automatically. When the air conditioning turns off, the
air selection automatically goes back to the outside air position.
If high cooling performance is desired, or if the outside air is
dusty or contaminated in some way, use the recirculation posi-
tion. Switch to the outside air position every now and then to
keep the windows from fogging up.
NOTE

If the mode selection dial is set between “ ” and “ ”,
you cannot turn the air conditioning off or select the recir-
culation position.
This prevents the windows from fogging up.


When the mode selection dial or the blower speed selec-
tion dial is set to the “AUTO” position again after manual
operation, the air selection switch will also be automati-
cally controlled.
CAUTION
!

Using recirculated air for a long time may cause the
windows to fog up.
