Operating tips
• To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather, place

the air flow selector in the

position.

• To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle, do not drive with the

air flow selector in OFF or with recirculated air engaged.

• Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the

airflow to the rear seats.

• Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of

the windshield.

• To improve the A/C cool down, drive with the windows slightly open

for 2–3 minutes after start up or until the vehicle has been “aired out.”

• During extreme high ambient temperatures when idling stationary for

extended periods of time in gear, it is recommended to run the A/C in
the MAX A/C position, turn off the rear A/C unit, reduce blower fan
speed from the highest setting and put the vehicle’s transmission into
the P (Park) position to continue to receive cool air from your A/C
system.
