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 RECLRC.
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
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-LEV with 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.
