1. Temperature selection:
Controls the temperature of the
airflow in the vehicle.

2. Airflow selections: Controls the
direction of the airflow in the
vehicle. See the following for a brief
description on each control setting:

MAX A/C: Distributes recirculated
air through the instrument panel
vents to cool the vehicle. This re-cooling of the interior air is more
economical and efficient. Recirculated air may also help reduce
undesirable odors from entering the vehicle.

: Distributes air through the instrument panel vents and floor vents.

O (OFF): Turns off the climate system. When the system is off, outside
air is prevented from entering the vehicle.

: Distributes air through the floor vents. Note: You may notice a

small amount of air flowing from the demister and defroster vents.

: Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents, demisters

and floor vents. The system will automatically provide outside air to help
reduce window fogging.

: Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster and

demister vents. Can be used to clear thin ice or fog from the windshield.
To exit

outside air to help reduce window fogging.

3.

Recirculated air: Press to activate/deactivate air recirculation

in the vehicle cabin. Recirculated air may reduce the amount of time to
cool down the interior of the vehicle and may also help reduce undesired
odors from reaching the interior of the vehicle. Recirculated air engages
automatically with selection of MAX A/C or can be engaged manually in
any other airflow selection except

(defrost). Recirculation may turn

off automatically in all airflow selections except MAX A/C.

When the ignition switch is turned off and back on, the climate system
will return to the recirculated air mode only if the A/C button light is
illuminated and the airflow selection is in either

(panel) or

(panel/floor) mode.
