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
a i r
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
a i r
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.
