[QUOTE="SurfRaptor, post: 1978064, member: 38811"] OK so now that its getting kinda cold for the winter, I've been playing around with the Climate Controls and of course I've been following the owners manual to see what I am missing before I make a dumb post on FRF lol. Here is some information for you all: [HEADING=1]CLIMATE CONTROL HINTS[/HEADING] General Hints [LIST] [*]Prolonged use of recirculated air may cause the windows to fog up. [*]You may feel a small amount of air from the footwell air vents regardless of the air distribution setting. [*]To reduce humidity build-up inside your vehicle, do not drive with the system switched off or with recirculated air always switched on. [*]Do not place objects under the front seats as this may interfere with the airflow to the rear seats. [*]Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of the windshield. [*]To improve the time to reach a comfortable temperature in hot weather, drive with the windows open until you feel cold air through the air vents. [/LIST] Automatic Climate Control [LIST] [*]Adjusting the settings when your vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold is not necessary. Automatic mode is best recommended to maintain set temperature. [*]The system adjusts to heat or cool the interior to the temperature you select as quickly as possible. [*]For the system to function efficiently, the instrument panel and side air vents should be fully open. [*]If you press AUTO during cold outside temperatures, the system directs air flow to the windshield and side window air vents.In addition, the blower motor may run at a slower speed until the engine warms up. [*]If you press AUTO during hot temperatures and the inside of the vehicle is hot, the system uses recirculated air to maximize interior cooling. Blower motor speed may also reduce until the air cools. [/LIST] Quickly Heating the Interior [LIST=1] [*]Press AUTO. [/LIST] [LIST=1] [*]Adjust the temperature function to the setting you prefer. [/LIST] Recommended Settings for Heating [LIST=1] [*]Press AUTO. [/LIST] [LIST=1] [*]Adjust the temperature function to the setting you prefer. Use 72 °F (22 °C) as a starting point, then adjust the setting as necessary. [/LIST] Quickly Cooling the Interior [LIST=1] [*]Press MAX A/C. [/LIST] [LIST=1] [*]Drive with the windows open for a short period of time. [/LIST] Recommended Settings for Cooling [LIST=1] [*]Press AUTO. [/LIST] [LIST=1] [*]Adjust the temperature function to the setting you prefer. Use 72 °F (22 °C) as a starting point, then adjust the setting as necessary. [/LIST] Defogging the Side Windows in Cold Weather [LIST=1] [*]Press and release defrost or maximum defrost. [/LIST] [LIST=1] [*]Adjust the temperature control to the setting you prefer. Use 72 °F (22 °C) as a starting point, then adjust the setting as necessary. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
