Comfort Controls
With this system, you can control the heating, cooling
and ventilation in your vehicle.
Standard Climate Control System
Fan Knob
The knob on the left side of the climate control system
control panel regulates the fan speed. To increase
airflow, move the knob clockwise. To decrease airflow,
move it counterclockwise.Temperature Knob
The middle knob on the control panel lets you select the
relative temperature of the air flowing into the passenger
area of your vehicle. Move the knob clockwise toward
the red area for warmer air. Move the knob
counterclockwise toward the blue area for cooler air.
Mode Knob
The right knob on the control panel allows you to
choose the direction of air delivery.
OFF: This mode turns the system off. Some outside air
will still enter the vehicle whenever the vehicle is
moving forward.
MAX A/C (Maximum Air Conditioning): This mode
provides maximum cooling with the least amount of
work. MAX A/C recirculates much of the air inside your
vehicle so it cools quickly. This setting directs most of
the air through the instrument panel vents and a small
amount through the floor ducts.

3-3
A/C (Air Conditioning): This setting cools and
dehumidifies the air entering your vehicle and directs
most of the air through the instrument panel vents
and a small amount through the floor ducts.
(Bi-Level Air Conditioning): This setting cools
and dehumidifies the air entering your vehicle and
directs it through the floor ducts as well as the
instrument panel outlets.
(Vent): This setting directs most of the air through
the instrument panel outlets and a small amount through
the floor outlets.
(Floor): This setting directs most of the air
through the floor ducts and some air through the
windshield defroster outlets.
(Blend): Airflow is divided equally between the
floor ducts and the windshield defroster outlets.
(Defrost): This setting directs most air through
the windshield defroster outlets and some through the
floor ducts.
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 to the left. 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 to the left.
On cool but sunny days, use Bi
-Level A/C to deliver
warmer 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.

Part C: Periodic Maintenance
Inspections
Listed in this part are inspections and services which
should be performed at least twice a year (for instance,
each spring and fall). You should let your dealer's
service department or other qualified service center
do these jobs. Make sure any necessary repairs are
completed at once.
Proper procedures to perform these services may be
found in a service manual. See ªService and Owner
Publicationsº in the Index.
Steering, Suspension and Front Drive Axle
Boot and Seal Inspection
Inspect the front and rear suspension and steering
system for damaged, loose or missing parts, signs of
wear or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering
lines and hoses for proper hook
-up, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Clean and then inspect the drive
axle boot seals for damage, tears or leakage. Replace
seals if necessary.
Exhaust System Inspection
Inspect the complete exhaust system. Inspect the body
near the exhaust system. Look for broken, damaged,
missing or out
-of-position parts as well as open seams,
holes, loose connections or other conditions which could
cause a heat build
-up in the floor pan or could let
exhaust fumes into the vehicle. See ªEngine Exhaustº in
the Index.
Fuel System Inspection
Inspect the complete fuel system for damage or leaks.
Engine Cooling System Inspection
Inspect the hoses and have them replaced if they are
cracked, swollen or deteriorated. Inspect all pipes,
fittings and clamps; replace as needed. Clean the outside
of the radiator and air conditioning condenser. To help
ensure proper operation, a pressure test of the cooling
system and pressure cap is recommended at least once
a year.
