Manual Operation

MODE: Press this button to manually change the direction of airflow in your vehicle; keep pressing the button until the desired mode appears on the display.

To change the current mode, select one of the following:

H (Vent): This mode directs air to the instrument panel outlets.

)(Bi-Level):This mode directs approximately half of the air to the instrument panel outlets, then directs the remaining air to the floor outlets and the defroster and side window outlets. Cooler air is directed to

the upper outlets and warmer air to the floor outlets.

6 (Floor): This mode directs most of the air to

the floor outlets. Use this mode to send air to the rear of the vehicle. Keep the area under the front seats free of objects that could obstruct airflow to the rear of

the vehicle.

The MODE button can also be used to select defog. For more information, see “Defogging and Defrosting”

later in this section.

9 (Fan): Press this button to increase to decrease the fan speed; keep pressing the up or down arrow until the desired fan speed appears on the display.

VENT: Press this button to turn the outside air mode on or off. When this mode is on, outside air will be circulated throughout your vehicle. VENT can be used with all modes, but it cannot be used with the recirculation mode.

@(Recirculation): This mode keeps outside air from coming in the vehicle. It can be used to prevent outside air and odors from entering your vehicle or help heat or cool the air inside your vehicle more quickly. Press this button to turn the recirculation mode on or off. When the button is pressed, an indicator light will come on. The air-conditioning compressor also comes on. The recirculation mode can be used with vent

and bi-level modes, but it cannot be used with floor, defog, defrost or outside air modes.

Temperature Control: Use the DRIVER knob to increase or decrease the air temperature inside your vehicle. If the front passenger would like the temperature to be warmer or cooler, use the PASS knob to adjust the passenger’s temperature.
