Outside air is allowed to enter the
cabin. Use this mode for ventilation or
windshield defrosting.
WARNING
Do not use the position in cold or

Operation of Automatic Air-
Conditioning
1. Set the mode selector dial to the AUTO
position.
2. Set the air intake selector to the outside
air position (indicator light turned off).
N O T E

conditioning (turn indicator light on).
5. Set the temperature control dial to the
desired position.
6. To turn off the system, set the fan

N O T E
 


y Setting the temperature to maximum
hot or cold will not provide the desired
temperature at a faster rate.
 


y When selecting heat, the system will
restrict airÀ ow until it has warmed to
prevent cold air from blowing out of the
vents.

Windshield 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 windshield and side windows (page
5-4 ). 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 windshield to fog up.
Your vision will be hampered, which
could lead to a serious accident.

N O T E
Use the temperature control dial to
increase the air À ow temperature and
defog the windshield more quickly.

Maintenance and Care
Owner Maintenance
Wiper Blades
CAUTION
 


¾ Hot waxes applied by automatic car
washers have been known to aff ect the
wiper's ability to clean windows.
 


¾ To prevent damage to the wiper blades,
do not use gasoline, kerosene, paint
thinner, or other solvents on or near
them.
 


¾ When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the ignition is switched ON,
the wipers may move automatically in
the following cases:
 


¾ If the windshield above the rain
sensor is touched.
 


¾ If the windshield above the rain
sensor is wiped with a cloth.
 


¾ If the windshield is struck with a hand
or other object.
 


¾ If the rain sensor is struck with a hand
or other object from inside the vehicle.
  Be careful not to pinch hands or fi ngers
as it may cause injury, or damage the
wipers. When washing or servicing the
vehicle, make sure the wiper lever is in
the OFF position.

Contamination of either the windshield or
the blades with foreign matter can reduce
wiper effectiveness. Common sources are
insects, tree sap, and hot wax treatments
used by some commercial car washes.

If the blades are not wiping properly,
clean the window and blades with a good
cleaner or mild detergent; then rinse
thoroughly with clean water. Repeat if
necessary.
Replacing Windshield Wiper
Blades
When the wipers no longer clean well, the
blades are probably worn or cracked.
Replace them.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the wiper arms
and other components, do not try to
sweep the wiper arm by hand.

N O T E
When raising both windshield wiper arms,
raise the driver's side wiper arm ¿ rst.
When lowering the wiper arms, slowly
lower the wiper arm from the passenger's
side ¿ rst while supporting it with your
hand. Forcefully lowering the wiper arms
could damage the wiper arm and blade,
and may scratch or crack the windshield.

(Type A)
1. Raise the wiper arm.
2. Open the clip and slide the blade
assembly in the direction of the arrow.
