MANUAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
(IF EQUIPPED)

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

2. Air flow selections: Controls
the distribution 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 and center console 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 center

console vents.

: Distributes air through the instrument panel vents, center console

vents, floor vents and rear seat floor vents.

O (OFF): Outside air is shut out and the climate system is turned off.

: Distributes air through the floor vents and rear seat floor vents.

Note: You may notice a small amount of air flowing from the defroster
vents and demister vents.

: Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents, demister

vents, floor vents and rear seat floor vents.

: Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster vents and

demister vents. Can be used to clear the windshield of fog or thin ice.
The system will automatically provide outside air to reduce window
fogging.

Recirculated air: Press to activate/deactivate air recirculation

in the vehicle cabin. Recirculated air may reduce the amount of time
needed to cool down the interior of the vehicle and may also help reduce
undesired odors from reaching the interior of the vehicle. Recirculation
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.

Rear defroster: Press to activate/deactivate the rear window

defroster. Refer to Rear window defroster later in this chapter for more
information.
