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, and Floor or a blend of these modes, even
if the Air Conditioning Snowflake button is not pressed.
This dehumidifies the air to help dry the windshield. To
improve fuel economy, use these modes only when
necessary.

Recirculation Control

Use this button to block the flow of outside air
from coming into the passenger compartment.
A light will illuminate when the system is in
recirculation mode. Use the recirculation mode

to provide maximum A/C performance in hot ambient
conditions, or to block outside odors, dust, etc.

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 may cause windows to fog on the inside,
because of moisture build-up inside the vehicle. Select
the Outside Air position for maximum defogging.
