Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or
any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater
and defroster will work far better, reducing the
chance of fogging the inside of your windows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, move the
fan lever toward HI for a few moments before
driving off. This helps clear the intake ducts of snow
and moisture, and reduces the chance of fogging the
inside of your windows.
Keep the
air
path under the front seats clear of objects.
This helps air to circulate throughout your vehicle.
Shut off outboard dash vents to keep cold air from
blowing in.
Defogging and Defrosting
Move the air intake lever to CIRCULATE and turn
the airflow knob to DEFROST to direct air to the
windshield vents. Turn the temperature knob clockwise
and the fan knob toward HI.
When the windshield is clear, turn down the fan speed.
To defog the windshield and side windows,
turn the
airflow knob to DEFOG. If you have the air conditioning
option, push the A/C button for quicker defogging.
Rear Window Defogger (Option)
The rear window defogger
uses a warming grid to
remove fog from the
rear window.
Press the switch to turn on the defogger. The defogger
will stay on for about 15 minutes, then it will shut off
automatically. You can also turn it off by pressing the
switch again. Use it only when the engine is running.
Make sure you turn the defogger off when the window is
clear. Leaving the defogger on for a long time could
cause the battery to run down, especially during
stop-and-go driving. The defogger is not designed for
drying water or melting snow.
Do not attach anything like a temporary vehicle license
or a decal across the defogger grid on the rear window.
