air conditioning and manually adjust the blower and airflow
mode settings. Also, make sure to select only Panel, Bi-Level
or Floor modes.
NOTE:
• For Manual Climate Controls, if the system is in Mix or
Defrost Mode, the A/C can be turned off, but the A/C
system shall remain active to prevent fogging of the
windows.
• If fog or mist appears on the windshield or side glass,
select Defrost mode, and increase blower speed if needed.
• If your air conditioning performance seems lower than
expected, check the front of the A/C condenser (located in
front of the radiator), for an accumulation of dirt or insects.
Clean with a gentle water spray from the front of the radi
-
ator and through the condenser.
Recirculation
In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode may lead to
excessive window fogging. The Recirculation feature may be
unavailable if conditions exist that could create fogging on
the inside of the windshield. The recirculation mode is not
allowed in Defrost mode to improve window clearing oper
-
ation.
On systems with Manual Climate Controls (if equipped) the
Recirculation mode is not allowed in Defrost mode to
improve window clearing operation. Recirculation is
disabled automatically if this mode is selected. Attempting
to use Recirculation while in this mode causes the LED in the
control button to blink and then turns off.
Operating Tips
NOTE:
Refer to the chart at the end of this section for suggested
control settings for various weather conditions.
Summer Operation
The engine cooling system must be protected with a
high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper corrosion
protection and to protect against engine overheating. Organic
Additive Technology (OAT) coolant (conforming to MS.90032)
is recommended. Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in “Tech
-
nical Specifications” for proper coolant selection.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
58 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Winter Operation
To ensure the best possible heater and defroster perfor
-
mance, make sure the engine cooling system is functioning
properly and the proper amount, type, and concentration of
coolant is used. Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in “Tech
-
nical Specifications” for proper coolant selection. Use of the
air recirculation mode during Winter months is not recom
-
mended because it may cause window fogging.
Vacation/Storage
Any time you store your vehicle or keep it out of service (i.e.,
vacation) for two weeks or more, run the air conditioning
system at idle for about five minutes in fresh air with the
blower setting on high. This will ensure adequate system
lubrication to minimize the possibility of compressor
damage when the system is started again.
Window Fogging
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside of the glass in mild,
rainy and/or humid weather. Windows may frost on the inside
of the glass in very cold weather. To clear the windows, select
Defrost or Mix mode and increase the front blower speed. Do
not use the Recirculation mode without Air Conditioning (A/C)
for long periods, as fogging may occur.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause damage to the
heating elements:
• Use care when washing the inside of the rear window.
Do not use abrasive window cleaners on the interior
surface of the window. Use a soft cloth and a mild
washing solution, wiping parallel to the heating
elements. Labels can be peeled off after soaking with
warm water.
• Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or abrasive
window cleaners on the interior surface of the window.
• Keep all objects a safe distance from the window.

Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the wind
-
shield, is free of obstructions such as leaves. Leaves collected
in the air intake may reduce airflow, can cause odor, and if
they enter the plenum they could plug the water drains. In
Winter months make sure the air intake is clear of ice, slush
and snow.
Cabin Air Filter
The Climate Control system filters out dust and pollen from
the air. Contact an authorized dealer to service your cabin air
filter, and to have it replaced when needed.
