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 position.
Do not drive with recirculation engaged.
• In order to allow the vehicle to “breathe” using the outside air inlet
vents, do not leave the air flow selector in the OFF position when the
vehicle is parked.
• Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
• With the ignition in the OFF position after operating the vehicle, some
vehicle sounds related to the climate control system may be heard.
• Approximately two minutes after key off, the air distribution doors
may adjust their positions as part of the normal operating process.
• Demisters, located at the far left and right sides of the dash, usually
blow out a small amount of airflow in order to reduce side window
fogging.
• Outboard panel registers, located at the left and right sides of the
dash, blowout a small amount of airflow when in Floor, Floor/Defrost,
and Defrost modes. This also reduces side window fogging.
