If the inside of your vehicle is very warm, drive for a few minutes with the windows down. This forces most of the hot, stale air out of the vehicle and helps the air conditioning cool the vehicle faster. MAX A/C When MAX A/C is selected, cooled interior air is recirculated through the system. This position is more efficient than NORM A/C. To cool your vehicle quickly in warm weather: 1. 2. 3. Turn the function selector control to MAX A/C. Turn the temperature control to the blue (cool) area. Set the fan at the desired speed. Because MAX A/C uses recirculated air, MAX is usually more efficient than NORM A/C. You can switch to outside air NORM A/C at any time, especially after the vehicle has cooled down. You may notice a slight odor when using the MAX A/C position. This is normal. If the odor becomes annoying, switch the function selector to NORM A/C. To provide the most quiet operation when using MAX A/C, reduce the fan speed after a comfortable temperature has been reached. NORM A/C When maximum air conditioning is not needed, you can use the NORM A/C position to cool your vehicle with outside air. Cooling your vehicle this way brings in outside air and is quieter, but it is less efficient. 54
