dehumidify the air.

position.
3. Turn the fan control dial to the desired posi-
tion. When the or position is
selected, the air conditioner automatically
turns on (however, the indicator light will not
illuminate). In this position, the air condi-
tioner cannot be turned off. When the air
flow control is turned to any position other

Operating tips
● Keep the windows and moonroof closed
while the air conditioner is in operation.
● After parking in the sun, drive for 2 or 3
minutes with the windows open to vent hot
air from the passenger compartment before
closing the windows. This allows the air con-
ditioner to cool the interior more quickly.
● The air conditioning system should be
operated for approximately 10 minutes
at least once a month. This helps pre-
vent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
● A visible mist may be seen coming from the
ventilators in hot, humid conditions as the air
is cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a
malfunction.
● If the high temperature warning
light illuminates in red indicating
engine coolant temperature is over the
normal range, turn the air conditioner
off. See “If your vehicle overheats” in
the “In case of emergency” section of
this manual.
