Interior Features
Air-Conditioning System
Windscreen Defrosting and
Defogging
Set the mode selector dial to the
position and turn the fan control dial to the
desired speed.
In this position, the outside air position
is automatically selected, and when the
fan control dial is ON, the air conditioner
automatically turns on. The air conditioner
will directly dehumidify the air to the
front windscreen and side windows (page
5-6 ). AirÀ ow amount will be increased.
WARNING
Set the temperature control to the hot
or warm position when defogging
( position):
Using the
position with the
temperature control set to the cold
position is dangerous as it will cause
the outside of the windscreen to fog up.
Your vision will be hampered, which
could lead to a serious accident.
NOTE
Use the temperature control dial to
increase the air À ow temperature and
defog the windscreen more quickly.
