SERVICE INFORMATION
On '01-02 Civics, '02 S2000s, '02 Odyssey LXs, and '02 CR-Vs, when you select Defog mode, the system automatically switches to Fresh Air mode and turns on the A/C compressor. This is to clear fogged windows quickly by blowing fresh, dehumified air from the defroster vents at the base of the windshield.
While in Defog mode, the A/C stays on and can't be turned off. After you switch from Defog mode to another mode, the A/C stays on until you turn it off.
