D.A/C:Press to turn air conditioning on or off. Air conditioning cools
the vehicle using outside air. To improve air conditioning when starting
your vehicle, drive with the windows slightly open for two to three
minutes.
E.Recirculated air:Press to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When the LED on the button is lit, the air currently in
the passenger compartment is being recirculated. Using recirculated air
can reduce the time needed to cool the interior and reduce unwanted
odors from entering your vehicle.
Note:For better cooling in hot conditions, recirculated air automatically
engages when the air distribution control is in Panel or Panel/Floor
modes and the air conditioning is on. You can switch to fresh air by
pressing the recirculated air button again.
F.MAX A/C:Distributes recirculated air through the instrument panel
vents to cool the vehicle. This position is more economical and efficient
than normal A/C.
G.Temperature control:Controls the temperature of the air circulated
in your vehicle. Turn to select the desired temperature.
H.Fan speed control:Controls the volume of air circulated in your
vehicle. Turn to select the desired fan speed or switch off. If you switch
the fan off, the windshield may fog up.
I.Power:Press to turn the system on and off. When the system is off,
outside air is prevented from entering the vehicle.
GENERAL OPERATING TIPS
•To reduce fog build-up on the windshield during humid weather,
select Defrost. Temperature and fan speed can also be increased to
improve clearing.
•To reduce humidity build-up inside the vehicle, do not drive with the
system off or with recirculated air engaged.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base
of the windshield.
Cooling the interior quickly:
1. Adjust the fan speed to the highest speed setting initially and then
adjust it to suit the desired comfort level.
2. Adjust the temperature control to the lowest temperature setting.
3. Adjust the air distribution control to the MAX A/C position.
