Defogging
Condition: Moisture is on the inside of the
windshield.
For best results, set controls to:
Fan speed—Any setting except "OFF"
Temperature—Towards red zone to heat;
blue zone to cool
Air intake—FRESH (outside air)
Air flow—WINDSHIELD
Turning the air flow selector to the wind-
shield or floor/windshield position turns on
the defogging function with the purpose of
clearing the windshield.
When turning the air flow selector to wind-
shield or floor/windshield position, air in-
take selector mode changes to FRESH
automatically to clear the windshield
quickly. If you want to return the setting
to RECIRCULATE mode, press the air in-
take selector button once again. However,
if the air flow selector is in the windshield
position, it is not possible to return to
RECIRCULATE.
Vehicles with "A/C" button—
Press the "A/C" button for dehumidified
heating or cooling. This setting clears the
front view more quickly.

On humid days, do not blow cold air
on the windshield—the difference be-
tween the outside and inside tempera-
tures could make the fogging worse.
"
When side windows fog up, turn the
side vents toward the windows.
