Operating tips • In humid weather, select and R before driving. This will reduce fogging on your windshield. After a few minutes, select any desired position. • To prevent humidity buildup inside the vehicle, don't drive with the climate control system in the OFF position. • DO NOT leave the DATC system in recirculated air mode for extended periods of time while the system is in a heating mode or in cold or damp conditions as this may cause interior fogging of the front, side and rear windows. • Do not place objects under the front seat that will interfere with the airflow to the rear seats. 40
