Operating tips
• To reduce fog build-up on the windshield during humid weather, place
the air flow selector in the
position.
• To reduce humidity build-up inside the vehicle: do not drive with the
air flow selector in the O (off) or (in cold weather) MAX A/C position.
• Under normal weather conditions, do not leave the air flow selector in
MAX A/C or O (off) when the vehicle is parked. This allows the
vehicle to “breathe” using the outside air inlet vents.
