Comfort Controls
With this system you can control the heating, air
conditioning and ventilation in your vehicle.
Your vehicle also has the flow
-through ventilation
system described later in this section.
Fan Control Knob
: Turn this knob to select the force of air
you want.
Temperature Control Knob
Turn the knob to change the temperature of the air
flowing from the system. Turn it toward the red area
(clockwise) for warmer air and toward the blue area
(counterclockwise) for cooler air.
Air Control Knob
OFF: The system is off.
MAX: Provides maximum cooling for quick cool
-down
on very hot days. This setting recirculates most of the air
inside your vehicle. If it is used for long periods of time,
the air may become dry. This setting directs air through
the upper air vents.
A/C: Use for normal cooling on hot days. This setting
cools outside air and directs it through the upper
air vents.
The air conditioner compressor operates in MAX, A/C,
Bi
-Level, Blend and Defrost when the outside
temperature is above freezing. When the air conditioner
is on, you may sometimes notice slight changes in your
vehicle's engine speed and power due to the operation of
the compressor.

3-5 Ventilation System
Adjust the direction of airflow by moving the vents.
Your vehicle's flow
-through ventilation system supplies
outside air into the vehicle when it is moving. Outside
air will also enter the vehicle when the blower
fan is running.
For mild outside temperatures when little heating or
cooling is needed, you can still direct outside air through
your vehicle.
1. Turn the air control knob to VENT.
2. Turn the temperature control knob to a
comfortable setting.
3. Turn the fan control knob to the desired speed.Ventilation Tips

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
fan control knob clockwise 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.Audio Systems
Your Delco Electronics 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
Electronics system can do and how to operate all its
controls, to be sure you're getting the most out of the
advanced engineering that went into it.
If you have power door locks, your vehicle has a feature
called Retained Accessory Power (RAP). With RAP,
you can play your audio system even after the ignition is
off. See ªRetained Accessory Powerº in the Index.

stations. C/W will appear on the display when you first

and counterclockwise for the rear speakers. The middle
position balances the sound between the speakers.
Push these knobs back into their stored positions when
you're not using them.Playing a Cassette Tape
Your tape player is built to work best with tapes that are
up to 30 to 45 minutes long on each side. Tapes longer
than that are so thin they may not work well in this
player. If a tape is inserted when the ignition is on but
the radio is off, the tape will begin playing. A tape
symbol is shown in the center of the graphic display
whenever a tape is inserted. When a tape is active, the
tape symbol will be accompanied by a direction arrow.
While the tape is playing, use the VOL, AUTO TONE,
BAL, FADE, BASS and TREB controls just as you do
for the radio. Other controls may have different
functions when a tape is inserted. The display will show
the tape symbol and an arrow to show which side of the
tape is playing.
If you hear nothing or hear just a garbled sound, it may
not be in squarely. Press EJECT to remove the tape and
start over.
The player is able to detect a tight or broken tape, and
will eject the tape. The radio will go back to playing the
last station selected.
The player automatically senses the cassette for metal or
CrO
2 and sets the pre-emphasis. Anytime a tape is
inserted, the top side is selected to play first.
