HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER

WARNING
•
The heater and air conditioner operate only
when the engine is running.
•
Never leave children or adults who would nor-
mally require the support of others alone in
the vehicle. Pets should not be left alone ei-
ther. They could unknowingly
switches or controls, or move the vehicle, and
inadvertently become involved in a serious ac-
cident and injure themselves. On hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause severe
or possibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
•
Do not use the recirculation mode for long
periods as it may cause the interior air to be-
come stale and the windows to fog up.
•
Do not adjust the heating and air conditioning
controls while driving so that full attention may
be given to vehicle operation.
The heater and air conditioner operate when the
engine is running. The air blower will operate even if
the engine is turned off and the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
NOTE
•
Condensation forms inside the air condition-
ing unit when the air conditioner (where fit-
ted) is running, and is safely discharged un-
derneath your vehicle.
Traces of water on the ground are therefore
normal.
Display screen, heater and air conditioner, and audio system
•
Odours from inside and outside the vehicle
can build up in the air conditioner unit. Odour
can enter the passenger compartment
through the vents.
•
When parking, set the heater and air condi-
tioner controls to turn off air recirculation to
allow fresh air into the passenger compart-
ment. This should help reduce odours inside
activate
the vehicle.
