Use the defog mode to clear the
inside of the windshield of fog
or moisture and to warm the
passengers. The air conditioning
compressor runs automatically
in this setting without pressing A/C,
unless the outside temperature
is at or below 32°F (0°C).

the windshield, instrument panel
outlets and the side windows.

Use the defrost mode to remove
fog or frost from the outside of the
windshield more quickly. The air
conditioning compressor runs
automatically in this setting without
pressing A/C, unless the outside
temperature is at or below
32°F (0°C).

Do not drive the vehicle until all the
windows are clear.

Air Conditioning

For vehicles with this feature, there
will be the following controls:

A/C (Air Conditioning): Press to
turn the air conditioning system
on or off. An indicator light shows
that it is on.

MAX A/C (Maximum Air
Conditioning):
Press the A/C and
recirculation buttons at the same
time to select MAX A/C.

On hot days, open the windows to
let hot inside air escape; then close
them. The vehicle will cool quicker
and the A/C system operates more
efficiently.

Because the A/C system removes
moisture from the air, it is normal
for a small amount of water to
drip under the vehicle while idling
or just after turning the engine off.
