Control System Logic: Defrost

When DEFROST is selected:

• the RECIRC request button is disabled. The air inlet door opens, allowing only outside air into the passenger compartment.
• the mode doors direct airflow to the defroster duct and side window demisters. A small amount of airflow from the floor duct is present.
• blended air temperature is available.
• the A/C request button toggles the indicator on and off. To reduce fogging, the A/C compressor operates automatically, regardless of indicator status, if the outside temperature is above approximately 6°C (42.8°F).
• the blower motor is on.
