The air conditioning system
removes moisture from the air, so a
small amount of water might drip
under the vehicle while idling or
after turning off the engine. This is
normal.
h
(Recirculation): Press this
button to turn the recirculation mode
on or off. An indicator light comes
on to show that recirculation is on.
This mode recirculates and helps to
quickly cool the air inside the
vehicle. It can be used to help
prevent outside air and odors from
entering the vehicle.
The recirculation mode cannot be
used with floor, defrost, or defogging
modes. If recirculation is selected
while in one of those modes, the
indicator flashes three times and
turns off. The air conditioning
compressor will also come on when
this mode is activated. While in
recirculation mode the windows may
fog when the weather is cold and
damp. To clear the fog, select either
the defog or defrost mode and
increase the fan speed. The
recirculation mode can also be
turned off by turning off the engine.
REAR: Press to turn the rear
heating and air conditioning on. See
Rear Climate Control System (Rear
Climate Control Only) on page 8‑10
or Rear Climate Control System
(Rear Climate with Rear Seat Audio)
on page 8‑11 for more information.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a
warming grid to remove fog from the
rear window.
<
(Rear Window Defogger):
Press this button to turn the rear
window defogger on or off. The
system automatically turns off
several minutes after it has been
activated. The defogger can also be
turned off by turning off the engine.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the
windows are clear.
For vehicles with heated outside
rearview mirrors, the mirrors will
heat to help clear fog or frost from
the surface of the mirror when the
rear window defog button is
pressed.
Notice: Do not use anything
sharp on the inside of the rear
window. If you do, you could cut
or damage the warming grid, and
the repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Do not
attach a temporary vehicle
license, tape, a decal, or anything
similar to the defogger grid.
