FLOOR:
This setting
sends
most
of
the
air
through
the
ducts
near
the
floor.
The remaining
airflow
comes
out of the defroster
and
side
window
vents.
?d
DEFOG:
This
setting
allows
half of the
air
to
go
to the floor
ducts
and
half
to the
defroster
and
side
window
vents.
w
DEFROST
This
setting
directs
most
of the
air
through
the
defroster
and
side window
vent.
Some
of
the
air
goes to the
floor
ducts
and
the
side
window
vent.
The
air
conditioning
compressor
will
run
automatically
in
this
setting
unless
the
outside
temperature
is below
38°F (3.3"C).
Air
Conditioning
Compressor
Button
Press
the
A/C
button
to
operate
the
air
conditioning
compressor. The indicator light above the button
will
glow
when the button is pressed. You don't
have
to
press
the
button
to
run
the compressor in
MAX
or
DEFROST
because
it
will
already
be
running in
these
modes.
Air
Conditioning
On
very
hot
days,
open
the
windows
long
enough
to
let
hot,
inside
air
escape.
This
reduces
the
time
for the
vehicle
to
cool
down.
For
quick
cool-down
on
very
hot
days,
use
MAX
with
the temperature
knob
all
the way
in
the
blue
area.
If
this
setting is used for long
periods of
time,
the
air
in
your
vehicle
may
become
too
dry.
For
normal
cooling
on
hot
days,
use
UPPER
with
the
temperature
knob
in
the
blue
area
and
the
A/C button
pushed
in.
The
system
will
bring
in
outside
air
and
cool it.
On
cool,
but
sunny
days,
the sun
may
warm
your
upper
body,
but
your
lower
body
may
not
be
warm
enough.
You can
use
BI-LEVEL
with
the
temperature
knob
in
the
middle
and
the
A/C
button
pushed
in.
The
system
will
bring
in
outside
air
and direct it to
your
upper
body,
while
sending
slightly
warmed
air
to
your
lower
body.
You
may notice
this
temperature
difference
more
at
some
times
than
others.
