is about 10°C (50°F) or higher, the air conditioner

- Distributes outside air through the
windshield defroster ducts. It can be used to clear
ice or fog from the windshield. If the temperature is
about 10°C (50°F) or higher, the air conditioner will
automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.
Operating tips
•
In humid weather, select before driving. This
will prevent your windshield from fogging. After a
few minutes, select any desired position.
•
To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle,
don’t drive with the climate control system in the
OFF position.
•
Don’t put objects under the front seat that will
interfere with the airflow to the back seats.
•
Remove any snow,
ice or leaves from
the air intake area
(at the bottom of
the windshield).
•
If your vehicle has been parked with the windows
closed during hot weather, the air conditioner will do
a much faster job of cooling if you drive for two or
three minutes with the windows open. This will force
most of the hot, stale air out of the vehicle. Then
operate your air conditioner as you would normally.
•
When placing objects on top of your instrument
panel, be careful to not place them over the
defroster outlets. These objects can block airflow
and reduce your ability to see through your
windshield. Also, avoid placing small objects on top
of your instrument panel. These objects can fall
down into the defroster outlets and block airflow
and possibly damage your climate control system.
