The blower fan rotates at a low speed when the engine coolant temperature is low. For efficient defogging or dehumidifying in cold weather, press the “A/C” button.

It activates when the fan speed control button or the “AUTO” button is pressed, and is used to maintain a constant, comfortable climate within the passenger compartment. If you press the defroster button while the automatic climate control system is deactivated, only the defroster function will be activated.
