Quick cooling
(using recirculated air)
The control settings are the same as for
normal cooling except you select “RE-
CIRCULATED AIR” and the highest blow-
er speed.
NOTE
❒
If you select “RECIRCULATED AIR”
for an extended period of time, the air
in the vehicle can become contaminat-
ed. Therefore, you should occasional-
ly select “FRESH AIR”.
❒
If your vehicle has been left in the sun
with the windows closed, it will cool
faster if you open the windows briefly
while you operate the air conditioner
with the air intake selector at “FRESH
AIR” and the blower at high speed.
Dehumidifying
Turn on the “A/C” switch, set the air flow
selector to a desired air flow selector po-
sition, and select “FRESH AIR”, the tem-
perature selector to the desired temper-
ature position, and the blower speed se-
lector to the desired blower speed posi-
tion.
NOTE Because the air conditioner dehu-
midifies the air, turning it on will help keep
the windows clear, even when blowing
heated air using the “DEFROST” or
“HEAT & DEFROST” functions.
NOTE If you need maximum defrosting:
❒
select “DEFROST” and “FRESH AIR”,
❒
turn on the “A/C” switch,
❒
set the blower speed selector to HIGH,
❒
adjust the temperature selector to the
HOT end, and
❒
adjust the side outlets so the air blows
on the side windows.
Head cooled/ Feet warmed heating
Select “BI-LEVEL” and “FRESH AIR”, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position, and the blower speed se-
lector to the desired blower speed posi-
tion. Unless the temperature selector is in
the fully COLD position or fully HOT po-
sition, the air that comes out of the cen-
ter and side outlets will be cooler than the
air that comes out of the floor outlets.
Normal cooling
Turn on the “A/C” switch, set the air flow
selector to “VENTILATION”, the tem-
perature selector to the desired temper-
ature position and the blower speed se-
lector to the desired blower speed posi-
tion. Setting the blower speed selector to
a higher blower speed position increases
cooling efficiency.
You can switch the air intake selector to
either “FRESH AIR” or “RECIRCULAT-
ED AIR” as you desire. Choosing “RE-
CIRCULATED AIR” increases cooling ef-
ficiency.
