control and audio systems offered with your vehicle. Be
sure to read about the particular systems supplied with
your vehicle.

and ventilation
in your vehicle.

Fan Control
The switch with the fan symbol changes the fan speed.
To increase the fan speed, move the switch upward
toward
HI. To decrease the fan speed, move the switch
downward toward
LO.
Temperature Knob
The upper knob regulates the temperature of the air
coming through the system. Turn the knob clockwise for warmer air. Turn the knob counterclockwise for cooler air.
Mode Knob
The lower knob allows you to choose the direction of
air delivery.
OFF: This setting turns the system off. Some outside air
will still enter the vehicle whenever the vehicle is
moving forward.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine MAX A/C: This setting provides maximum cooling
with the
least amount of work. MAX A/C recirculates
much
of the air inside your vehicle so it cools quickly.
A/C: This setting cools the air entering your vehicle and
directs it through the instrument panel outlets.
+' BI-LEVEL A/C: Air is delivered through the
heater floor outlets as well as the instrument panel
outlets.
/J VENT: This setting directs airflow through the
instrument panel outlets. The air conditioning
compressor is
not working when VENT is selected.
+' HEATER: This setting directs warmed air through
the heater floor outlets and windshield defroster outlets.
+, BLEND: Airflow is divided equally between the
heater floor outlet and
the windshield defroster outlets.
'sw DEFROST This setting directs most air through
the windshield defroster outlets and some through the
heater outlets.

Air Conditioning
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.
For quick cool-down
on very hot days, use MAX A/C
with the temperature knob turned counterclockwise.
This setting should be used
to keep odors and/or dust
from entering the vehicle. For normal cooling on
hot
days, use A/C with the temperature knob turned
counterclockwise.
On cool but sunny days, use BI-LEVEL
A/C to deliver
warm air to the floor and cooler air to the instrument
panel outlets.
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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Heating
The heater works best if you keep your windows closed
while using it. On cold days, use
HEATER with the
temperature knob turned clockwise.
BLEND is useful in
cool weather when
you have fog or ice on the
windshield or side windows.
If
you use the optional engine coolant heater before
starting your engine, your heating system will produce
warmer air faster to heat the passenger compartment in
cold weather. See “Engine Coolant Heater” in the Index.

Ventilation System
For mild outside temperatures when little heating or
cooling
is needed, use VENT to direct outside air
through your vehicle. Airflow is through the instrument
panel outlets.
Your vehicle’s ventilation system supplies outside air to
the inside
of your vehicle when it is moving. When the
vehicle is not moving, you can get outside air to
flow
through by selecting any mode and any fan speed. You
will find air outlets in the center and on the sides
of
your instrument panel.
You can move the outlets to direct the flow of air, or
close the outlets altogether. When you close an outlet, it
will increase the flow
of air coming out of any outlets
that are open.

Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or
any
other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater
and defroster will work far better, reducing the
chance
of fogging the inside of your windows.
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.
Defogging and Defrosting
On cool, humid days, use BLEND to keep the
windshield and side windows clear.
Use DEFROST to remove fog or ice from the
windshield quickly in extremely humid or cold
conditions. Turn the temperature knob clockwise and move
the fan control toward HI.
Rear Window Defogger (Option)
1
If your vehicle has this option, the rear window will
have lines that warm the glass. For best results, clear the
window of
as much snow or ice as possible before using
the rear window defogger.
To turn on the rear window defogger, find
the switch
marked REAR
DEFOG on your instrument panel below
the headlamp switch. Press ON
until the light in the
switch conles on, then release
it. It will only work if the
ignition switch
is turned to RUN.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The rear window defogger will stay on for five to seven
minutes, then turn off. If you need additional warming
time, turn
it on again. You can turn the defogger off at
any time by pressing OFF.
Do not attach a temporary vehicle license, tape or decals
across the defogger grid
on the rear window.
NOTICE:
Don’t use a razor blade or something else sharp
on the inside
of the rear window. If you do, you
could cut or damage the warming grid, and the
repairs wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.
Audio Systems
Your Deb@ audio system has been designed to operate
easily and give years
of listening pleasure. You will get
the most enjoyment out of it
if you acquaint yourself
with
it first. Find out what your Delco system can do
