or more, run the air conditioning system at
idle for about five minutes, in fresh air with
the blower setting on high. This will ensure
adequate system lubrication to minimize
the possibility of compressor damage
when the system is started again.

Window Fogging

Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside
in mild, rainy and/or humid weather. To
clear the windows, select DEFROST or
MIX mode and increase the front blower
speed. Do not use the RECIRCULATION
mode without A/C for long periods, as
fogging may occur.

Outside Air Intake

Make sure the air intake, located directly
in front of the windshield, is free of ob-
structions such as leaves. Leaves col-
lected in the air intake may reduce airflow,
and if they enter the plenum they could
plug the water drains. In Winter months
make sure the air intake is clear of ice,
slush and snow.
