automatically relock.

The interior light has a three­
position switch. In the
0 FF position,
the light does not come on. In the
center position, the interior light
comes on when you open either door.
In the
ON position, the interior light
stays on continuously. In
addition, when the three position
switch is in the center position with
both doors closed, the two bulbs
in
the interior light can be turned on
separately by the pushbutton
switches next to them.
Push the
switch to turn the light on or off.
If the three-position switch is in the
center position,
the interior light will
come on when you remove the key
from the ignition switch.
Interior Lights
Instruments and Controls 83

Heating and Cooling
Proper use of the Heating and
Cooling system can make the
interior dry and comfortable, and
keep the windows clear for best
visibility.
What Each Control Does
Fan Control Lever
Pushing this lever up and down
increases and decreases
the fan
speed.
The indicators next to the
lever show you the speed selected.
Temperature Control Dial
Turning this dial clockwise increases
the temperature of the air
flow.
Air Conditioning (A/C) Button
This button turns the air condi­
tioning
ON and OFF. The indicator
in the button lights when theA/Cis
on.
86 Comfort and Convenience Features
Recirculation Button
This button controls the source of
the air going into the system. When
the indicator
in this button is lit, air
from the car's interior is sent
through the system again (Recircula­
tion mode). When the indicator is off,
air
is brought in from outside the car
(Fresh Air mode).

These settings direct all the air flow
to the defroster vents at the base of
the windshield and the side window
defroster vents.
The air flow will get
warmer and clear the windows faster
as the engine warms up. You can
close the side vents with the dial
beside each vent.
This will send
more warm air to the windshield
defroster vents.
For safety, make sure you have a
clear view through all the windows
before driving away.
To Tum Everything Off
To shut off the system temporarily,
turn off the fan (no lights
illuminated).
You should shut the system
completely off only for the first few
minutes of driving in cold weather,
until the engine coolant warms up
enough to operate the heater. Keep
the fan on at
all other times so stale
air does not build up
in the interior.
