Tips for managing your ventilation system
To prevent dust or unwanted odors from entering the vehicle, temporarily set the air intake mode selector switch to the air recirculation mode. To maintain fresh air in the vehicle, be sure to return the air intake mode selector switch to the outside air intake mode. This helps the driver feel alert and comfortable.
Air for the heating/cooling system is drawn through louvers located directly in front of the windshield. Keep these louvers free of leaves, snow, ice or other foreign objects.
To prevent the windshield from fogging up, set the air intake mode selector switch to the outside air intake position
and the fan mode switch to the desired position.
