Flow-Through Ventilatr'on System
I
KO502
Your vehicle's flow-through ventilation system supplies outside air to\
the inside
of your vehicle when it
is moving. With the side windows closed, air will flow
into the front air inlet grilles, through the vehicle, and out\
the rear air exhaust
valves. Outside air will also enter the vehicle when the heate\
r or the air
conditioning fan is running.
Ventilation Tips
e
e Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow, or any other
obstruction (such as leaves). The heater and defroster will w\
ork far better, reducing the chance of fogging the inside of your wind\
ows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, turn the blower fan
to HI for
a few moments before driving off. This helps clear the intake ducts of
snow and moisture, and reduces the chance of fogging the inside of
your windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats clear of objects. This helps air
to circulate throughout your vehicle.

Air Vents
You will find air vents in the center and on the sides of your instrument
panel. You can move the vents to direct the flow of air, or close the vents
altogether. When
you close a vent, it will increase the flow of air coming out
of any vents that are open.
If your vehicle does not have air conditioning, there are air vents in each kick
panel below the instrument panel. Each vent has
a handle to open and close
it.

The lever at the top of the system has four positions. To increase the air
flow, move the lever toward
HI. To decrease the air flow, move it toward OFF.
Temperature Lever
The lever on the left of the system lets you select the temperature of the air
flowing into your vehicle. Move the lever up for warmer air. Move the leve\
r
down for cooler air.
Function Lever
The lever on the right of the system can be moved to three different heating
functions.
DEFROST: This setting operates the defroster. Most of the air comes out
near the windshield, with some going to the floor vents and side window
defrost vents. Use this when you get fog or ice on the windshield.
HTR (Heater): Most of the air comes out near the floor. The rest comes out
from the defroster vents under the windshield and at the front\
side windows.
This is best for cold weather.
VENT: The air comes out at the vents on your instrument panel and \
at your
front side windows.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine VENT: The air comes out at the vents on your instrument panel and \
at your
front side windows.
BI-LEV NC: With this, outside air comes in through the heater floor vent and
the instrument panel vents. This setting is useful in cool weather with bright
sunlight.
NORM
NC: This setting cools the outside air. If you first used MAX, use
NORM as soon as the vehicle has cooled down,
so outside air will be going
through your vehicle.
MAX NC: This cools the air the fastest. Move the other lever all the \
way to
Cold. MAX lets in only a little air from the outside. You can use MAX at first
when it’s really hot outside and you need to cool
off quickly.
OFF: The blower is off, but air still will come from outlets at the front of your
vehicle. The system will try
to keep the air at the chosen temperature.
Engine Block Heater
If you use the optional engine block heater before starting your \
engine, your
heating system will produce warmer air faster, to heat the pas\
senger
compartment in cold weather. See “Engine Block Heater” in the Index.

FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound. But FM signals will \
reach only about
10
to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). And, tall buildings or hills can interfere with
FM signals, causing the sound
to come and go.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM, especi\
ally at night.
The longer range, however, can cause stations to interfere with\
each other.
AM can pick up noise from things like storms and power lines.\
Try reducing
the treble to reduce this noise
if you ever get it.
AM Stereo
C-QUA@
This means the Delco@ system can receive C-QUAM@ stereo broadca\
sts. Many AM stations around the country use C-QUAM@ to produce stereo,
though some
do not. (C-QUAM@ is a registered trademark of Motorola, Inc.)
If your Delco@ system can get C-QUAM? your “STEREO” light will come on
when you’re receiving it.
