airflow between the heater floor vents and windshield.
DEFROST: This setting directs air through the
windshield defroster vents. This setting is useful when

Heater/Air Conditioning Controls
If your vehicle has air conditioning, your heater/air
conditioning controls will look like this.
Before using your vehicle’s air conditioning, open the
windows to clear the vehicle of hot air.
Fan Knob
The knob on the left side of the heating system control
panel controls the fan speed. The knob has four speed
positions. To increase airflow, turn the knob toward HI.
To decrease airflow, turn it toward LO. To turn the fan
off, turn the mode knob on the far right to OFF.
Temperature Knob
The middle knob on the control panel lets you select the
temperature of the air flowing into the passenger area of
your vehicle. This knob will allow you to adjust the air
temperature independently of the function knob setting.
Turn the knob toward the red area for warmer air.
Turn the knob toward the blue area for cooler air.
Mode Knob
The right knob on the control panel changes the
heater/air conditioning setting.
MAX A/C: Turn the right knob to MAX A/C for
maximum cooling. This setting puts the system in the
recirculation mode and helps to maximize your air
conditioner’s performance and your vehicle’s fuel
economy. This setting also cools the air the fastest.
After the vehicle’s interior reaches a comfortable
temperature, turn the knob clockwise to place the
air conditioning system in the A/C mode.
