Climate Control Functions
Air Conditioning (A/C)
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the operator to
manually activate or deactivate the air conditioning sys-
tem. When in A/C mode with the ATC set to a cool
temperature, dehumidified air flows through the air out-
lets. If Economy mode is desired, push the A/C button to
turn off the A/C mode in the ATC display and deactivate
the A/C system.
NOTE:
•
If the system is in Mix 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 not operating in AUTO mode, the system will not
automatically sense the presence of fog, mist or ice on
the windshield. Defrost Mode must be manually se-
lected to clear the windshield and side glass.
•
If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side glass,
select Defrost Mode and adjust blower speed if needed.
MAX A/C
MAX A/C sets the control for maximum cooling perfor-
mance. Press and release to toggle between MAX A/C and
the prior settings. The button illuminates when MAX A/C
is on. In MAX A/C, the blower level and mode position can
be adjusted to desired user settings. Pressing other settings
will cause the MAX A/C operation to switch to the selected
setting and MAX A/C to exit.
Recirculation For Automatic Temperature Control
When outside air contains smoke, odors, or high humidity,
or if rapid cooling is desired, you may wish to recirculate
interior air by pressing the Recirculation control button.
The recirculation indicator will illuminate when this button
is selected. Press the button a second time to turn off the
Recirculation mode and allow outside air into the vehicle.
