Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To-find your comfort zone, start with the 75°F (24°C)
setting and allow about 20 minutes for the system to
regulate. Turn the
TEMP/AUTO knob to adjust the
temperature if necessary.
If you choose 60°F ( 1 6"C),
the system will remain at that maximum cooling setting
and will
not regulate fan speed. If you choose the
temperature of
90°F (32'C), the system will remain at
that maximum heating setting and will not regulate fan
speed. Choosing either maximum setting will not cause
the system
to heat or cool any faster.
With
the: automatic setting, the air conditioning
compressor automatically cycles
when needed to cool
the air. In cold weather, when the system senses the need
for heat, the airflow will be directed out the floor
outlets.
As the interior temperature approaches a desired
setting, the blower speed will decrease.
To maintain
interior comfort, the airflow may move
to the instrument
panel air outlets and floor outlets (bi-level mode). On
bright
sunny days in cold weather. the airflow may come
out
of the air conditioning outlets (AC mode) to
maintain comfort and prevent stuffiness.
If your vehicle is sitting out on a hot day and you have it
set on AUTO, the air will first flow out the floor air
outlets for
a few seconds. That is normal. This is to
expel hot air from the air outlets. As the air
is cooled,
the airflow will move through the air conditioning
outlets. If you start your vehicle with the fan setting on
HI, it will skip the air conditioning purge.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system
will delay turning on the fan
until warm air is available.
The length
of delay depends on the outside air
temperature, engine coolant temperature or the time
since the engine was last started.
As the coolant warms
up, the blower fan speed will gradually increase and
air will flow from the heater outlets, with some airflow
to the windshield to prevent fogging under most
normal conditions.
If you leave your vehicle, the system will remember the
control setting the next time
you start your engine,
except for recirculation and defrost. Each ignition cycle
cancels recirculation, whereas,
DEFROST will change
to automatic operation when the ignition is shut off and
then turned back
on.
Page 165 of 370
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine AC: Press this button to turn the air conditioning on and
off. The system will cool and dehumidify the air inside
the vehicle. In the AUTO mode, the display will show
that AC is active,
but the air conditioning compressor
only operates when the system determines it is needed.
RECIRCULATION: Press this button to limit the
amount of fresh air entering your vehicle. This is helpful
when
you are trying to cool the air quickly or limit odors
entering your vehicle. In the AUTO mode, the system
will use recirculation
as necessary to cool the air.
Pressing the recirculation button will change the
operation to a manual mode and the air will recirculate
non-stop. Press this button again to
turn off the
recirculation feature.
If you notice the windows fogging, press the
recirculation button to exit the recirculation mode. The sensor monitors
the sun’s solar radiation and is
located on top
of the instrument panel near the
windshield. The
ECC system uses this information
automatically make the necessary temperature and
airflow adjustments to maintain your comfort. to

On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed
for
the air conditioner to work its best.
Press the
AC button or the TEMP/AUTO knob to turn
the system
on and then select the proper MODE to direct
airflow.
The system will cool and dehumidify the air
inside the vehicle.
Also while in the AUTO mode, the
system will use recirculation as necessary to cool the air.
You may also need to adjust the interior temperature and
the fan speed as needed.
When the
air conditioner is on, you may sometimes notice
slight changes in your vehicle's engine speed and power.
This is normal because the system is designed to cycle the
compressor
on and off to keep the desired temperature.
I3 e 8 i: i f'i g,
Press the MODE button to select heater. Adjust the
interior temperature to a comfortable level and if the
fan speed needs adjusting, press the
up or down arrow.
With each system, outside air will be brought
in and
sent through the floor, air conditioning or bi-level
outlets (depending
on the condition). The heater works
best if you keep your windows closed while using
it.
Your Cadillac's flow-through ventilation system
supplies outside air into the vehicle when it is moving.
Outside air will also enter the vehicle when the heater or
the air conditioning fan is running.
The front outlets are located in the center and at each
side
of the instrument panel. You can adjust the
direction
of airflow by moving the center control levers
or
you can stop the airflow by moving the lever located
on each side
of the outlets downward.
