6.8.2.2. Heater operation

Heating

This mode is used to direct heated air from the foot outlets. Some air also flows from the defogger outlets and the side vent outlets.

  1. For normal heating, push the image button to turn the indicator light off for selecting the outside air circulation.

  2. Push the image button. (The indicator light will turn on.)

  3. Turn the image dial to the desired position.

  4. Turn the temperature control dial to the desired position between the middle and the hot (right) position.

Ventilation

This mode directs outside air from the side and centre vents.

  1. Push the image button to turn the indicator off for selecting the outside air recirculation.

  2. Push the image button. (The indicator light will turn on.)

  3. Turn the image dial to the desired position.

  4. Turn the temperature control dial to the desired position.

Defrosting or defogging

This mode directs the air to the defogger outlets to defrost/defog the windows.

  1. Push the image button to turn the indicator off for selecting the outside air recirculation.

  2. Push the image button. (The indicator light will turn on.)

  3. Turn the image dial to the desired position.

  4. Turn the temperature control dial to the desired position between the middle and the hot (right) position.

  5. Turn the side vents to the side windows to defrost or defog for a clear view to the side mirrors.

    To remove frost from the windscreen quickly, turn the temperature control dial to the maximum hot (right) position and the image dial to the maximum position.

    If it is difficult to defog the windscreen, push the <A/C> button. (The indicator light will turn on.)

    When the front defogger mode is selected, the air conditioner automatically turns on if the outside temperature is more than slightly above freezing. This dehumidifies the air which helps defog the windscreen. The air recirculation indicator light automatically turns off, allowing outside air to be drawn into the passenger compartment to further improve the defogging performance. The recirculation mode cannot be activated in the front defogger mode.
