• If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side glass,

select Defrost mode and increase blower speed.

• If your air conditioning performance seems lower than

expected, check the front of the A/C condenser (lo-
cated in front of the radiator), for an accumulation of
dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle water spray from
the front of the radiator and through the condenser.

MAX A/C

MAX A/C sets the control for maximum cooling perfor-
mance.

Press and release to toggle between MAX A/C and the
prior settings. The soft-key illuminates when MAX A/C
is ON.

In MAX A/C, the blower level and mode position can be
adjusted to desired user settings. Pressing other settings
will cause the MAX A/C operation to switch to the prior
settings and the MAX A/C indicator will turn off.

Recirculation Control

When outside air contains smoke, odors, or
high humidity, or if rapid cooling is desired,
you may wish to recirculate interior air by
pressing the Recirculation control button. The

recirculation indicator will illuminate when this button is
selected. Push the button a second time to turn off the
Recirculation mode and allow outside air into the vehicle.

NOTE:

In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode may

lead to excessive window fogging. The recirculation
feature may be unavailable (soft button greyed out) if
conditions exist that could create fogging on the inside of
the windshield. The Recirculation mode is not allowed in
Defrost mode to improve window clearing operation.
Recirculation will be disabled automatically if these
modes are selected. Attempting to use Recirculation
while in these modes will cause the LED in the control
button to blink and then turn off.
