Climate Control Functions

A/C (Air Conditioning)
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the operator

to manually activate or deactivate the air conditioning

system. When the air conditioning system is turned on,

cool dehumidified air will flow through the outlets into

the cabin. For improved fuel economy, press the A/C

button to turn off the air conditioning and manually

adjust the blower and airflow mode settings. Also, make

sure to select only Panel, Bi-Level or Floor modes.

NOTE:

• For Manual Climate Controls, if the system is in Mix,

Floor or Defrost Mode, the A/C can be turned off, but

the A/C system shall remain active to prevent fogging

of the windows.

• If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side glass,

select Defrost mode and adjust blower speed if

needed.

• If your air conditioning performance seems lower than

expected, check the front of the A/C condenser (lo-

cated in front of the radiator), for an accumulation of

dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle water spray from

behind the radiator and through the condenser. Fabric

front fascia protectors may reduce airflow to the

condenser, reducing air conditioning performance.
