coolant selection. Use of the air Recirculation mode

during Winter months is not recommended, because it

may cause window fogging.
Vacation/Storage
Before you store your vehicle, or keep it out of service

(i.e., vacation) for two weeks or more, run the air

conditioning system at idle for about five minutes, in

fresh air with the blower setting on high. This will ensure

adequate system lubrication to minimize the possibility

of compressor damage when the system is started again.
Window Fogging
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild, rainy

and/or humid weather. To clear the windows, select

Defrost or Mix mode and increase the front blower speed.

Do not use the Recirculation mode without A/C for long

periods, as fogging may occur.

Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the

windshield, is free of obstructions such as leaves. Leaves

collected in the air intake may reduce airflow, and if they

enter the plenum, they could plug the water drains. In

winter months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice,

slush, and snow.
A/C Air Filter
The climate control system filters out dust and pollen

from the air. Refer to “Air Conditioning” in “Maintaining

Your Vehicle” for filter replacement instructions.
