Manual Climate Control Descriptions
IconDescription
A/C Button
Push the A/C button to engage the Air Conditioning (A/C). A LED will illuminate when the
A/C system is engaged.
Recirculation Setting
Rotate this control to change the system between recirculation mode and outside air mode. Re-
circulation can be used when outside air conditions such as smoke, odors, dust, or high humid-
ity are present. Recirculation can be used in all modes except for Defrost. Recirculation may be
unavailable if conditions exist that could create fogging on the inside of the windshield. The
A/C can be deselected manually without disturbing the mode control selection. 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.
Temperature Control
Use this control to regulate the temperature of the air inside the interior cabin. Rotating the
knob counterclockwise, from top center into the blue area of the scale, indicates cooler tempera-
tures. Rotating the knob clockwise, into the red area, indicates warmer temperatures.
