138 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL • Defrost Air is directed through the windshield and side window demist outlets. Use this mode with maximum fan and temperature settings for best windshield and side window defrosting. NOTE: The air conditioning compressor operates in both Mix and Defrost modes even if the Air Conditioning is not selected. This dehumidifies the air to help dry the windshield. Rear Seat Outlets These outlets are located under the front seats and direct warm air to the rear seat passengers. Air is directed through these outlets when you select either the Floor, Bi-Level, or Mix modes. Rear Window Defroster The Rear Window Defroster button is located to the right of the Mode Control. Press this button once to turn on the Rear Window Defrost and a second time to turn them off. A light above the button shows that the defroster is on. NOTE: The defroster turns off automatically after 15 minutes of operation. Each later activation will allow 10 minutes of operation. Side Window Demisters A side window demister outlet is at each end of the instrument panel. These non-adjustable outlets direct air toward the side windows when the system is in either the FLOOR, MIX, or DEFROST modes. A small amount of air is directed to the side window demisters in BI-LEVEL mode as well. The air is directed at the area of the windows through which you view the outside mirrors. Windshield and Side Window Fogging Interior fogging on the windshield can be quickly removed by using the defrost position on the mode control. Your side windows may fog on the inside in mild rainy or humid weather. To clear the windows, select the Panel-Air Conditioning mode on the Mode Control. Point the panel outlets toward the side windows.
