How to Use the System  
It is best to leave the system in Fresh

draws in outside air, circulates it  
through the interior, then exhausts it  
through vents near the tailgate.  
The engine must be running for the

heating and cooling system are at  
the base of the windscreen. Keep  
these clear of leaves and other  
debris.

These settings direct all the air flow  
to the demister vents at the base of  
the windscreen and the side window  
demister vents. The air flow will get  
warmer and clear the windows faster  
as the engine warms up. You can  
close the side vents with the dial  
underneath each vent. This will send  
more warm air to the windscreen  
demister vents.  
To Turn Everything Off  
To shut off the system temporarily,  
turn the fan speed and temperature  
control dials all the way to the left.  
You should shut the system  
completely off only for the first few  
minutes of driving in cold weather,  
until the engine coolant warms up  
enough to operate the heater. Keep  
the fan on at all other times so stale  
air does not build up in the interior.  
For safety, make sure you have a  
clear view through all the windows  
before driving away.
