To change the current mode, select one of the following: H (Vent): Air is directed to the instrument panel outlets. Air is divided between the instrument panel and floor outlets. In automatic operation, cooler air is directed to the upper outlets and warmer air to the floor outlets. In this mode, the system automatically turns off the recirculation and runs the air conditioning compressor, unless the outside temperature is near or below freezing. Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows are clear. A/C OFF (Air Conditioning): Press to turn off the air conditioning compressor. Press AUTO to return to automatic operation. The compressor cannot be turned off in either the defrost or floor/defog mode. % (Bi-Level): 6 (Floor): Air is directed to the floor outlets, with some air directed to the windshield and side window outlets. - (Floor/Defog): This mode clears windows of fog or moisture. Air is directed to the windshield, floor outlets and side windows. In this mode, the system turns off recirculation and runs the air conditioning compressor unless the outside temperature is near or below freezing. This mode removes fog or frost from the windshield more quickly. Press to direct air to the windshield, with some air directed to the side windows. ? (Recirculation): Press to turn the recirculation mode on or off. The air conditioning compressor also comes 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. Recirculation is not available in defrost or floor/defog modes. Using recirculation for long periods of time may cause the air inside the vehicle to become too dry. To prevent this from happening, after the air in the vehicle has cooled, turn the recirculation mode off. 1 (Defrost): 3-38
