D. Recirculated air: Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, the air currently in the
passenger compartment recirculates. This may reduce the time needed
to cool the interior (when used with A/C) and may reduce unwanted
odors from entering your vehicle.
Note: Recirculated air may turn off automatically (or be prevented
from turning on) in all airflow modes except MAX A/C to reduce risk
of fogging.
E. MAX A/C: Press the button to maximize cooling. Recirculated air
flows through the instrument panel vents, air conditioning automatically
turns on, and the fan automatically adjusts to the highest speed.
F. A/C: Press the button to turn air conditioning compressor on or off.
Use air conditioning with recirculated air to improve cooling performance
and efficiency.
G. AUTO: Press the button to turn on automatic operation. Select the
desired temperature using the temperature control. The system adjusts
fan speed, air distribution, air conditioning operation, and selects outside
air or recirculated air to heat or cool the vehicle in order to maintain the
desired temperature. You can also use the AUTO button to turn off dual
zone operation by pressing and holding the button for more than two
seconds.
H. Heated rear window: Turns the heated rear window on and off. See
Heated windows and mirrors later in this chapter for more
information. If your vehicle is equipped with heated mirrors, this button
turns them on also.
I. Defrost: Press the button to distribute air to the windshield vents and
de-mister. Air distribution to instrument panel and footwell vents turn
off. You can use this setting to defog and clear the windshield of a thin
covering of ice.
