During Play mode, pressing any of the buttons described
below, will bring up List mode. List mode enables
scrolling through the list of menus and tracks on the

NOTE:
• Continuous use of the Recirculation mode may make
the inside air stuffy and window fogging may occur.
Extended use of this mode is not recommended.
• The use of the Recirculation mode in cold or damp
weather will cause windows to fog on the inside,
because of moisture buildup inside the vehicle. Select
the outside air position for maximum defogging.
• The A/C will engage automatically to prevent fogging
when the recirculation button is pressed and the mode
control is set to panel or Bi-Level.
• The A/C can be deselected manually without disturb-
ing the mode control selection.
• When the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK
position, the recirculation feature will be cancelled. Air Conditioning Control
Press this button to engage the Air Con-
ditioning. A light will illuminate when
the Air Conditioning system is engaged.
Rotating the dial left into the blue area
of the scale indicates cooler tempera-
tures, while rotating right into the red
area indicates warmer temperatures.
NOTE: The air conditioning compressor will not engage
until the engine has been running for about 10 seconds.
• MAX A/C
For maximum cooling, turn on the A/C and recirculation
buttons at the same time.
• ECONOMY MODE

• Air Conditioner Control
Press this button to turn on the air
conditioning during manual operation
only. When the air conditioning is
turned on, cool dehumidified air will
flow through the outlets selected with
the Mode control dial. Press this but-
ton a second time to turn OFF the air
conditioning. An LED in the button illuminates when
manual compressor operation is selected.
• Recirculation Control
The system will automatically control recircu-
lation. However, pressing the Recirculation
Control button will put the system in recircu-
lation mode. This can be used when outside
conditions such as smoke, odors, dust, or high humidity
are present. Activating recirculation will cause the LED in
the control button to illuminate. NOTE:
• When the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK
position, the recirculation feature will be cancelled.
• In cold weather, use of the Recirculation mode may
lead to excessive window fogging. The Recirculation
mode is not allowed in the defrost mode in order to
improve window clearing. Recirculation will be dis-
abled automatically if in defrost mode.
• Extended use of recirculation may cause the windows to
fog. If the interior of the windows begins to fog, press
the Recirculation button to return to outside air. Some
temp/humidity conditions will cause captured interior
air to condense on windows and hamper visibility. For
this reason, the system will not allow recirculation to be
selected while in defrost mode. Attempting to use recir-
culation while in these modes will cause the LED in the
control button to blink and then turn off.400 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
