Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
*
[IS06600(ALL)02/96]
This gauge indicates the temperature of the
engine coolant, not the coolant level. If the
coolant is not at its proper level or mixture, the
gauge indication will not be accurate.
[IS06650(ALL)04/96]
The pointer usually moves from C (cold) into
the NORMAL band as your vehicle warms up.
Under most driving conditions, the pointer
should stay in the NORMAL band. If you are
driving in heavy traffic or on an extended grade
in hot weather, the pointer may reach to the top
of the NORMAL band.
*
[IS06700(ALL)04/96]
If, under any circumstances, the pointer moves
above the NORMAL band, the engine is
overheating and continued operation may cause
engine damage.
*
[IS06800(ALL)03/96]
If your engine overheats:
*
[IS06900(ALL)03/96]

Air Conditioning System (If equipped)
[CF06800(ALL)01/96]

controls on the center of the instrument panel.

Air conditioning controls
*
[CF06950(ALL)01/96]
Sometimes you may notice slight engine surging
if you have the air conditioner on. This is
normal, as the system is designed to cycle the
compressor on and off to maintain desired
cooling. The reduced compressor operation
should benefit fuel economy.
*
[CF07000(ALL)01/96]
On some vehicles with air conditioning,
wide-open throttle acceleration will temporarily
cut off the air conditioning.
*
[CF07050(ALL)01/96]
Since the air conditioner removes a lot of
moisture from the air during operation, it is
normal for water to drip on the pavement under
the air conditioner drain after you have stopped
the vehicle.
[CF07150(ALL)01/96]
Action for heating and windshield defrosting are
identical for cars equipped with either the
Heating Only Systemor theHeating and Air
Conditioning System. For instructions about these
