Dehumidified defrosting or
defogging
1. Press thedefroster control but-
ton to turn the system on. The indicator
light in the button will illuminate.
2. Turn the temperature dial to the lef t or right to set the desired temperature.
∙ To quickly remove ice from the outside of the windows, press the
fan
speed control button to the maximum
position.
∙ As soon as possible af ter the wind- shield is clean, press the AUTO button to
return to the auto mode. ∙ When the
control is activated, the
air conditioner will automatically be
turned on at outside temperatures
above 36°F (2°C). This dehumidifies the
air which helps defog the windshield.
Under this condition, the indicator light
on the A/C button indicator will not turn
on if the user had selected A/C off. Turn-
ing off the air condition via the A/C but-
ton is not allowed in this mode. If the
A/C button indicator was on when en-
tering this mode, and the A/C button is
selected in this mode, the A/C com-
pressor will still be automatically en-
abled. The air recirculation mode auto-
matically turns off, allowing outside air
to be drawn into the passenger com-
partment to further improve the defog-
ging performance.
Remote Engine Start with
Intelligent Climate Control (if so
equipped)
Vehicles equipped with automatic climate
controls and Remote Engine Start function
may go into automatic heating or cooling
mode when Remote Engine Start is acti-
vated depending on outside and cabin
temperatures. During this period, the cli-
mate control display and buttons will be
inoperable until the ignition switch is turned on. In Remote Engine Start defrost-
ing mode, the rear window defroster and
heated steering wheel (if so equipped) may
be activated automatically.

matically change. To fix the outlet to a
manual mode, select the desired air flow
location using the MODE button.

Vehicles started with the Remote Engine
Start require the ignition switch to be
placed in the ON position before the shif t
lever can be moved from the P (Park) posi-

and adjustments” section of this manual. For additional information on starting your
diesel engine, refer to your Titan Diesel
Owner’s Manual.
ENGINE PROTECTION MODE
The engine has an engine protection mode
to reduce the chance of damage if the
coolant temperature becomes too high
(for example, when climbing steep grades
in high temperatures with heavy loads,
such as when towing a trailer). When the
engine temperature reaches a certain
level:
∙ The engine coolant temperature gauge will move toward the H position.
∙ Engine power may be reduced.
∙ The air conditioning cooling function may be automatically turned off for a
short time (the blower will continue to
operate).
Engine power and, under some conditions,
vehicle speed will decrease. Vehicle speed
can be controlled with the accelerator
pedal, but the vehicle may not accelerate at
the desired speed. The transmission will
downshif t or upshif t as it reaches pre-
scribed shif t points. You can also shif t
manually.
As driving conditions change and engine
coolant temperature is reduced, vehicle
speed can be increased using the accel-
