PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Outside Air
Keep the air intakes in front of thewindshield free from obstruction (such assnow or leaves) to allow the climatecontrol system to function effectively.
Recirculated Air
The air currently in the passengercompartment recirculates. Outside air doesnot enter your vehicle.
Note:Prolonged use of recirculated air maycause the windows to fog up.
Heating
Heating performance depends on thetemperature of the coolant.
General Information on Controllingthe Interior Climate
Close the windows.
Warming the Interior
Direct the air toward your feet. In cold orhumid weather conditions, direct some ofthe air toward the windshield and the doorwindows.
Cooling the Interior
Direct the air toward your face.
Air Conditioning
The system directs condensation to theoutside of your vehicle, which could causea small pool of water to form under yourvehicle. This is normal.
