• MAX A/C-Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle.

The temperature will remain unchanged and air
will be cooled based on the selected temperature.
To exit, press AUTOMATIC or any other override
controls. MAX A/C is noisier than normal A/C but
more economical and will cool the inside of the
vehicle faster. Airflow is from the instrument
panel registers. This mode can also be used to
prevent undesirable odors from entering the
vehicle.

• VENT-Distributes outside air through the

instrument panel registers. However, the air
cannot be cooled below the outside temperature
because the air conditioning does not operate in
this mode.

-Distributes outside air through the

instrument panel registers and the floor ducts.
Heating and air conditioning capabilities are
provided in this mode. The air will be heated or
cooled based on the temperature selection. For
added customer comfort, the air distributed
through the floor ducts will be slightly warmer
than the air sent to the instrument panel
registers.

-Allows for maximum heating by distributing

outside air through the floor ducts. However, the
air cannot be cooled below the outside
temperature because the air conditioning does not
operate in this mode.

-Distributes outside air through the

windshield defroster ducts and the floor ducts.
Heating and air conditioning capabilities are
provided in this mode. The air will be heated or
cooled based on the temperature selection. For
added customer comfort, the air distributed
through the floor ducts will be slightly warmer
than the air sent to the windshield defroster
ducts. If the temperature is about 10°C (50°F) or
higher, the air conditioner will automatically
dehumidify the air to prevent fogging.
