Rapid Window Demisting (MAX-Defrost function)
Push the MAX-defrost button to activate (LED on) the
windshield and side window demisting function.
The Climate Control system carries out the following
operations:
•
Turns on the air conditioning compressor when envi-
ronmental conditions are suitable.
•
Turns air recirculation off.
•
Sets blower fan to the maximum speed.
•
Directs air flow to windshield and front side window
diffusers.
•
Activates the heated rear window defrost.
•
Activates the heated windshield (if equipped).
•
Displays the fan speed (Blower Control Indicator LED
illuminated).
When the function is activated, the AUTO button LED
turns off. With the function activated, the only possible
manual adjustments are pushing the A/C control button,
adjusting the fan speed and turning the heated rear
window off.
When the Recirculation Control or AUTO buttons are
pushed, the Climate Control system will deactivate the
Front Defrost (MAX-DEF) function.
Selecting the footwell/windshield or only windshield
distribution activates the Climate Control system com-
pressor and the air recirculation is set to

intake.
This logic guarantees optimum visibility at the windows.
Max-defrost is also available in manual mode.
