Air conditioning system operation
tips
• If the vehicle has been parked in
direct sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
• To help reduce moisture inside of
the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system.
• During air conditioning system
operation, you may occasionally
notice a slight change in engine
speed as the air conditioning
compressor cycles. This is
a normal system operation
characteristic.
• Use the air conditioning system
every month only for a few
minutes to ensure maximum
system performance.
• When using the air conditioning
system, you may notice clear
water dripping (or even puddling)
on the ground under the
passenger side of the vehicle.
This is a normal system operation
characteristic.
• Operating the air conditioning
system in the recirculated air
position provides maximum
cooling, however, continual
operation in this mode may
cause the air inside the vehicle to
become stale.
• During cooling operation, you may
occasionally notice a misty air
flow because of rapid cooling and
humid air intake. This is a normal
system operation characteristic.
