Recirculation Control

Pressing the Recirculation Control button will
put the system in recirculation mode. This can
be used when outside conditions such as
smoke, odors, dust, or high humidity are pres-

ent. Activating recirculation will cause the LED in the
control button to illuminate.

NOTE:

• Continuous use of the Recirculation mode may make

the inside air stuffy and window fogging may occur.
Extended use of this mode is not recommended.

• The use of the Recirculation mode in cold or damp

weather will cause windows to fog on the inside,
because of moisture buildup inside the vehicle. Select
the outside air position for maximum defogging.

• The A/C will engage automatically to prevent fogging

when the recirculation button is pressed and the mode
control is set to panel or panel / floor.

• The A/C can be deselected manually without disturb-

ing the mode control selection.

• When the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK

position, the recirculation feature will be cancelled.

Air Conditioning Control

Press this button to engage the Air
Conditioning. A light will illuminate
when the Air Conditioning system is
engaged. Rotating the dial left into the
blue area of the scale indicates cooler
temperatures, while rotating right into
the red area indicates warmer tem-
peratures.

NOTE:

The air conditioning compressor will not engage

until the engine has been running for about 10 seconds.
