However, the air conditioning will only function if the outside
temperature is about 6°C (43°F) or higher.
Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the air
during operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under
the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you
have stopped the vehicle.
•
MAX A/C-Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. The temperature
will display 16°C (60°F). To exit, press AUTOMATIC or any other
override controls. MAX A/C is noisier than normal A/C but more
economical and will cool the inside of the vehicle faster. Airflow is
from the instrument panel registers. This mode can also be used to
prevent undesirable odors from entering the vehicle.
•
(Panel) -Distributes outside air through the instrument panel
registers. However, the air cannot be cooled below the outside
temperature because the air conditioning does not operate in this
mode.
•
(Panel and floor) -Distributes outside air through the instrument
panel registers and the floor ducts. Heating and air conditioning
capabilities are provided in this mode. The air will be heated or cooled
based on the temperature selection. For added customer comfort, the
air distributed through the floor ducts will be slightly warmer than the
air sent to the instrument panel registers.
•
(Floor)-Distributes outside air through the floor ducts. Heating
and air conditioning capabilities are provided in this mode.
•
(Floor and defrost)-Distributes outside air through the windshield
defroster ducts and the floor ducts. Heating and air conditioning
capabilities are provided in this mode. The air will be heated or cooled
based on the temperature selection. For added customer comfort, the
air distributed through the floor ducts will be slightly warmer than the
air sent to the windshield defroster ducts. If the temperature is about
6°C (43°F) or higher, the air conditioner will automatically dehumidify
the air to reduce fogging.
•
FRONT
-Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster
ducts. It can be used to clear ice or fog from the windshield. If the
outside air temperature is about 6°C (43°F) or higher, the air
conditioner will automatically dehumidify the air to reduce fogging.
•
OFF-Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate. For short
periods of time only, use this mode to reduce undesirable odors from
entering the vehicle.
