+’ HEATER: This setting directs warmed air through
the heater floor outlets and windshield defroster outlets.
‘H BLEND: Airflow is divided equally between the
heater floor outlet and the windshield defroster outlets.
DEFROST This setting directs most air through
w.
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.
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.
