MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROL

A. Fan speed control: Controls the volume of air circulated in your
vehicle. Adjust to select the desired fan speed.

B. Defrost: Press the button to distribute air to the windshield vents
and de-mister. Air distribution to instrument panel and footwell vents
turn off. You can use this setting to defog and clear the windshield of a
thin covering of ice.

C. Power: Press the button to turn the system on and off. Switching off
the climate control system prevents outside air from entering the vehicle.

D. A/C: Press the button to turn air conditioning compressor on or off.
Use air conditioning with recirculated air to improve cooling performance
and efficiency.

E. Recirculated air: Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, the air currently in the
passenger compartment recirculates. This may reduce the time needed
to cool the interior (when used with A/C) and may reduce unwanted
odors from entering your vehicle.

Note: Recirculated air may turn off automatically (or be prevented
from turning on) in all airflow modes except MAX A/C to reduce risk
of fogging.

F. Temperature control: Controls the temperature of the airflow in
your vehicle. Adjust to select the desired temperature.

G. MAX A/C: Press the button to maximize cooling. Recirculated air
flows through the instrument panel vents, air conditioning automatically
turns on, and the fan automatically adjusts to the highest speed.
