setting. The A/C indicator illuminates
when A/C is on.
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the
operator to manually activate or deactivate the air
conditioning system. When the air conditioning
system is turned on, cool dehumidified air will flow
through the outlets into the cabin.
NOTE:If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side
glass, select Defrost mode and increase blower
speed if needed. If your air conditioning perfor -
mance seems lower than expected, check the front
of the A/C condenser (located in front of the
radiator), for an accumulation of dirt or insects.
Clean with a gentle water spray from the front of
the radiator and through the condenser.
Recirculation Button
Press and release this button to change
the system between recirculation mode
and outside air mode. The Recirculation
indicator and the A/C indicator illuminate
when the Recirculation button is pressed.
Recirculation can be used when outside conditions
such as smoke, odors, dust, or high humidity are
present. Recirculation can be used in all modes.
Recirculation may be unavailable (button on the touchscreen grayed out) 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 Recirculation mode may make
the inside air stuffy and window fogging may occur.
Extended use of this mode is not recommended.
Recirculation mode may automatically adjust to
optimize customer experience for warming,
cooling, dehumidification, etc.
AUTO Button
Press and release this button on the
touchscreen, or push the button on the
faceplate, to change the current setting.
The AUTO button automatically controls
the interior cabin temperature by adjusting

windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up
may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
Damage to the transmission may occur if the
following precautions are not observed:
Do not shift from REVERSE (R), PARK, or
NEUTRAL into any forward gear when the
engine is above idle speed.
WARNING!
