Introduction
The air conditioner works only when the ignition is switched on. The
cooling system for the passenger compartment works only when the
engine is running and the fan is on.
The air conditioner is most efficient when the windows and the
power sunroof are closed. If the vehicle is stationary and the
passenger compartment becomes very hot due to sunlight, briefly
opening the windows and the power sunroof may speed up the
cooling process.
Keep the air intake slots in front of the windshield free of ice, snow,
and leaves so that the heating and ventilation systems can work
properly.
