light FORD PROBE 1996 2.G Owner's Manual

70 [IP07550(ALL)01/95]Because MAX A/C uses recirculated air, MAX is
usually more efficient than NORM A/C. You
can switch to outside air (NORM A/C) at any
time, especially after the vehicle has cooled
down.
[IP07560(ALL)11/91]
You will notice a slight odor when using the
MAX A/C position. This is normal. If the odor
becomes annoying, switch the function selector
to NORM A/C.
[IP07575(ALL)08/91]
To provide the most quiet operation when using
MAX A/C, reduce the fan speed after a
comfortable temperature has been reached.
[IP07800(ALL)04/95]
NORM A/C
[IP08025(ALL)01/94]
When maximum air conditioning is not needed,
you can use the NORM A/C position to cool
your vehicle with outside air. Cooling your
vehicle this way brings in outside air and is
quieter, but it is less efficient.
[IP08050(ALL)05/95]
To cool your vehicle using outside air:
[IP08075(ALL)08/91]
1. Turn the function selector control to NORM
A/C.
[IP08150(ALL)08/91]
2. Turn the temperature control all the way to
left to the blue (cool) area.
*
[IP08175(ALL)10/93]
3. Set the fan at the desired speed.
[IP08400(ALL)01/95]
In mild weather, setting the function selector
control in the VENT position will add cool air to
your vehicle without using the air conditioning.
You will get better fuel economy without using
the air conditioning.
