Floor

Air is directed through the floor outlets with a
small amount flowing through the defrost and side

window demist outlets.

Mix

Air is directed through the floor, defrost, and side
window demist outlets. This setting works best in
cold or snowy conditions that require extra heat to

the windshield. This setting is good for maintaining
comfort while reducing moisture on the windshield.

Defrost

Air is directed through the windshield and side
window demist outlets. Use this mode with maxi-

mum blower and temperature settings for best wind-
shield and side window defrosting.

NOTE:

• The air conditioning compressor operates in Mix,

Defrost, or a blend of these modes, even if the Air
Conditioning (A/C) button is not pressed. This dehu-
midifies the air to help dry the windshield. To improve
fuel economy, use these modes only when necessary.

• For information on operating the Rear Defrost, refer to

“Rear Window Features” in “Understanding The Fea-
tures Of Your Vehicle”.

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. After ten minutes, the sys-
tem will return to normal mode function and the LED
will turn off.
