Heating
The heater works best if you keep the windows closed.
Maximum heating will occur when airflow direction is
in the lower mode and the temperature control knob 
(on a manual climate control system) is all the way in
the red area. These settings will be selected by the
automatic electronic dual climate control system if
operating in AUTO when maximum heating is required.
The BI
-
LEVEL setting is designed for use on sunny
days when the air is only moderately warm or cool. 
On days like these, the sun may adequately warm your
upper body, but your lower body may not be warm
enough. The BI
-
LEVEL setting will direct cooler
airflow to your upper body and warmer air to the 
floor area.
If you have the optional engine coolant heater and use it
during cold weather 0
_F (

_C) or lower, the 
heating system will provide heat more quickly because
the coolant is already warmed. See “Engine Coolant 
Heater” in the Index.
Defogging and Defrosting
To rapidly defrost the windshield, the FRONT defrost
mode (automatic electronic dual climate control system)
or defrost mode (manual control system) should be used
and the fan speed should be adjusted to the highest
speed. With the manual control system, turn the
temperature control knob all the way to the red area.
To keep the windshield clear and provide heated air to
the floor area of the vehicle, use the DEFOG setting.
Your vehicle is equipped with side window defogger
vents located near the side rearview mirrors.
Rear Window Defogger
  REAR: This button turns the rear defogger and 
the heated outside mirrors on. The light on the button
will come on when operating. The system automatically
shuts off after approximately 15 minutes. If further
defogging is desired, press the button again and it will
operate for about seven and a half more minutes.
The rear window defogger operates only when the
engine is running.
