Outside air {Indicator light (A) OFF}

Recirculated air {Indicator light (A) ON}
When the air conditioning turns on, the air selection is con-
trolled automatically.
When the air conditioning turns off, the air selection automati-
cally goes back to the outside air position.
The air selection indicator light (A) shows the selected posi-
tion.
NOTE
When the air conditioning operates with the air selection
switch (A) in the outside air position, the system automat-
ically determines whether to continue using outside air or
to perform recirculation.
If the outside temperature is high, the system selects recir-
culation to achieve rapid cooling and causes the air selec-
tion indicator in the switch to illuminate. When the air
conditioning turns off or the blower speed selection dial is
set to the “OFF” position, the air selection automatically
goes back to the outside position.
If the outside air is dusty or contaminated in some way, use the
recirculation position. Switch to the outside air position every
now and then to keep the windows from fogging up.
CAUTION
!
Using recirculated air for a long time may cause the
windows to fog up.

2. Set your blower to the maximum speed.
3. Set the temperature to the highest position.
NOTE
While the mode selection dial is set between “ ” and
“ ” position, the air conditioning compressor will run
automatically. The outside air position will also be auto-
matically selected. (In this case, the air conditioning indi-
cator will not change.)

While the between “ ” and “ ” position is selected,
you cannot turn the air conditioning off or select the recir-
culation position. This prevents the windows from fog-
ging up.

toward the door windows.

When defrosting, do not set the temperature control dial
near the “MAX A/C” cool position. This will blow cool
air on the window glass and fog it up.
