continuously with the ignition on.
There will be some airflow
noticeable from the various outlets
when driving, even with the fan in
the off position. To turn off the air
completely, turn the fan to
9 and
select the @ button.
Temperature Control: Turn
clockwise or counterclockwise to
increase or decrease the
temperature inside the vehicle.
Air Delivery Mode Control: Turn
clockwise or counterclockwise to
change the current airflow mode.
Select from the following air delivery
modes:
H (Vent): Air is directed to the
instrument panel outlets.
) (Bi-Level): Air is divided
between the instrument panel and
the floor outlets.
6 (Floor): Air is directed to the
floor outlets with some air directed
to the windshield. When this mode is selected, the
system turns the recirculation mode
off. Recirculation mode cannot be
selected while in floor mode. This
helps prevent window fogging.
- (Defog): Clears the windows of
fog or moisture. Air is directed to the
floor outlets, with some air directed
to the windshield and side window
outlets. In this mode, the system
turns the recirculation mode off and
runs the air conditioning compressor
unless the outside air is at or below
freezing. Recirculation mode cannot
be selected while in defog mode.
This helps prevent window fogging.
0 (Defrost): Removes fog or frost
from the windshield more quickly.
Air is directed to the windshield and
the side window outlets. In this
mode, the system turns the
recirculation mode off automatically
and runs the air conditioning
compressor unless the outside air is
at or below freezing. Recirculation
mode cannot be selected while in
defrost mode. This helps prevent
window fogging. For best results, clear all snow and
ice from the windshield before
defrosting.
# (Air Conditioning): Press to
turn the air conditioning system on
or off. An indicator light comes on to
show that the air conditioning is on.
The air conditioning can be selected

Climate Controls 8-33. Turn the
# on.
4. Select the coolest temperature
and highest fan speed.
5. Once the vehicle's interior
temperature is below the outside
temperature, select recirculation
mode for enhanced cooling.
Using these settings together for
long periods of time may cause the
air inside the vehicle to become too
dry. To prevent this from happening,
after the air inside of the vehicle has
cooled, turn the recirculation
mode off.
The air conditioning system
removes moisture from the air, so a
small amount of water might drip
under the vehicle while idling or
after turning off the engine. This is
normal.
8 (Outside Air): Press to turn
the outside air mode on. An
indicator light comes on to show
that outside air is on. Air from
outside the vehicle will circulate
throughout the vehicle. The outside air mode can be used with all
modes, but it cannot be used with
the recirculation mode. Pressing this
button will cancel the
recirculation mode.
@ (Recirculation): Press to turn
on the recirculation mode. An
indicator light comes on to show
that recirculation is on. This mode
recirculates and helps to quickly
cool or heat the air inside the
vehicle. It can be used to prevent
outside air and odors from entering
the vehicle. Avoid using the
recirculation mode during high
periods of humidity and cool outside
temperatures since this may result
in increased window fogging.
If window fogging is experienced,
select the defrost mode.
Recirculation mode is not available
in floor, defog, or defrost modes and
will shut off automatically and
change to outside air. The indicator
will flash if the button is selected in
any of these modes. This helps prevent window fogging and
moisture building up inside the
vehicle.
Rear Window Defogger The rear window defogger uses a
warming grid to remove fog from the
rear window.
The rear window defogger only
works when the ignition is in
ON/RUN.
1 (Rear Window Defogger):
Press to turn the rear window
defogger on or off. An indicator light
on the button comes on to show that
the rear window is activated.
The rear window defogger stays on
for approximately 10 minutes after
the button is pressed, unless the
ignition is turned to ACC/
ACCESSORY or LOCK/OFF.
If turned on again, the defogger only
runs for approximately five minutes
before turning off again. At higher
vehicle speeds, the defogger may

8-4 Climate Controls stay on continuously. The defogger
can also be turned off by turning off
the engine.
Notice: Do not use anything
sharp on the inside of the rear
window. If you do, you could cut
or damage the warming grid, and
the repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Do not
attach a temporary vehicle
license, tape, a decal, or anything
similar to the defogger grid.

the system to heat or cool any
faster.
AUTO (Automatic Air Delivery
Mode): Turn the air delivery mode
knob to AUTO for the system to
automatically control the direction of
the airflow to help reach the desired
inside temperature.
The system automatically controls
the air inlet to supply the outside air
or recirculated inside air needed to heat or cool the vehicle faster. The
@ button indicator light is lit
whenever the recirculation mode
is on.
Press the
8 button to change to
outside air. However, the
recirculation mode may turn back on
automatically.
In cold weather, if the fan and air
delivery modes are in automatic, the
system starts at lower fan speeds to
avoid directing cold air into the
vehicle until warmer air is available.
The climate control system directs
air to the floor, but may
automatically change modes as the
vehicle warms up to maintain the
chosen temperature setting. The
length of time needed to warm the
interior depends on the outside
temperature and inside temperature
of the vehicle.
