Win dow Foggin g
Summer Operation
Vehicle side wind ows tend to fog on the insid e in mild
rainy or hu mid weather. To clear the wind ows, use the
A/ C, PANEL and blow er controls. Direct the panel
outlets tow ard the side wind ows. Do not use recircu late
withou t A/ C for long period s as fogging may occur.
Air cond itioned vehicles must be protected with a high-
quality antifreeze coolant to provid e prop er corrosion
protection and to raise the boiling point of the coolant for
protection against overheating. A 50% concentration is
recom mend ed.
Interior fogging on the wind shield can be quickly re-
moved by using the defrost position.
Outsid e Air Intak e
When operating the system during the winter months,
make sure the air intake, directly in front of the wind -
shield , is free of ice, slush, snow or other obstru ctions
such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air-intake plenu m
may red uce air flow and plug the plenu m water drains.
If the fogging problem persists, clean the insid e wind ow
surfaces. The cause of und ue fogging may be dirt collect-
ing on the insid e surface of the glass
NOTE: In cold weather, the use of the recircu late
position will cause wind ows to fog on the insid e becau se
of moistu re build up insid e the vehicle. For maxim um
defogging, use the Outsid e Air position.
The blow er air will heat faster in cold weather if you use
only a low blow er speed for the first few minu tes of
vehicle operation.
