System Operation: Defrost
When DEFROST mode is selected:
- the recirculated air request button is disabled. The air inlet door opens, allowing only outside air into the passenger compartment.
- the air distribution doors operate in combination to direct airflow to the defroster duct and side window demisters. A small amount of airflow from the floor duct is present.
- the A/C is turned on in defrost mode. The A/C compressor operates as long as the outside temperature is above approximately 0°C (32°F).
- blended air temperature is available.
- the blower motor is on and the speed is adjustable.
