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 the OFF or MAX A/C position.

• Under normal weather conditions, do not leave the air flow selector in

MAX A/C or OFF when the vehicle is parked. This allows the vehicle
to “breathe” using the outside air inlet vents.
