Default "no Snowflake" Button

OK - I give..... what does the 'no snowflake' button on the Climate Control do?

I have searched every page of the owner's manual, and cannot find any reference to it.

Turns off the A/C....if you want heat or just air circulation.

I believe that has to do with the blend air system. On the other hand, it may be that if one is caught in a snow storm and pushes the button, the snow melts ...............................

Well, more precisely, it turns off the air compressor.

Aside from not being able to cool down for A/C....it would also make it harder (if not impossible) to defrost/defog your front windows if the compressor is turned off.

It's in the 2005 owner's manual, page 3-27. You just missed it.

^(Air Conditioning Off): Press this button to turn the
air conditioning compressor off. Press AUTO to return to
automatic operation. When in AUTO, the air conditioning
compressor will come on automatically, as needed
