the following modes.
0 (Vent): Air is directed to the
instrument panel outlets.

between the instrument panel
outlets and the floor outlets.
d (Floor): Air is directed to the
floor outlets with some air directed to
the windshield and side window
outlets.
4 (Defog): Air is directed to the
windshield, floor outlets, and
side window vents. Use this mode
to clear the windows of fog or
moisture and warm the passengers.
5 (Defrost): Air is directed to
the windshield, with some air
directed to the side window vents.
Use this mode to quickly remove

to improve defrosting performance.
In this mode the air conditioning
cannot be turned off and the
recirculation mode cannot be
turned on.
Air Conditioning
# (Air Conditioning): Press to
turn on or off. An indicator comes on
when the air conditioning is on.
The fan must be on to use the
air conditioning.
The air conditioning cannot be turned
off in defrost mode. If
# is pressed,
the indicator light flashes three times
and the air conditioning stays on.
For quick cool down on hot days,
select the following settings together:
1. Press
# to turn on the air
conditioning.
2. Press
/ to turn on the
recirculation.
3. Select the coolest temperature
and highest fan speed.
4. Open the windows briefly to
let hot air escape and then
close them.
5. Once the vehicle’s interior cools
down, turn off the recirculation,
and select
0. This maintains
the best comfort level during
extended driving.
The air conditioning system removes
moisture from the air, so a small
amount of water might drip under the
vehicle while idling or after turning off
the engine. This is normal.
The air conditioning should be
turned on for at least five to
ten minutes once every two weeks
to lubricate the air conditioning
seals, even in the winter.
