Climate Control System
Recirculated and Fresh Air
These two buttons control the
source of the air going into the sys-
tem. In Fresh Air mode ( )
air is brought in from outside the ve-
hicle. In Recirculation mode
( ) air from the car's interior
is sent through the system again.
You can, for example, manually put
the system in recirculation mode
when driving through an area of
smoke or fumes. When you press
the or button, the
light in that button comes on.
Fan Control Dial
You can manually select the fan
speed by turning the fan control dial.
When you turn the dial clockwise,
the fan is taken out of automatic

speed. Turning the dial fully
clockwise increases the fan's speed,
which increases air flow.

vents the air flows from. Some air
will flow from the side vents and the
dashboard corner vents in all modes.
