entering the car through the ventilation
system, temporarily set the air intake
control to (
).
Be sure to return the control to (
)
when the irritation has passed to keep
fresh air in the vehicle. This will help
keep the driver alert and comfortable.
o Air for the heating/cooling system is
drawn in through the grilles just ahead
of the windshield. Care should be taken
that these are not blocked by leaves,
snow, ice or other obstructions.
o To prevent interior fog on the wind-
shield, set the air intake control to the
fresh air (
) position, fan speed to the
desired position, turn on the air condi-
tioning system, and adjust temperature
control to desired temperature.
OCM051040A B710A01A-AAT
To operate the ventilation system:
o Set the air intake control switch to the
fresh air (
) position.
o To direct all intake air to the dashboard
vents, set the airflow control to the face
(
) position.
o Adjust the fan speed control to the de-
sired speed.
o Set the temperature control between
"Cool" and "Warm".
VENTILATION
o If the interior of the car is hot when you
first get in, open the windows for a few
minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning
system, keep all windows closed to
keep hot air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic,
shift to a lower gear. This increases
engine speed, which in turn increases
the speed of the air conditioning com-
pressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air condition-
ing off to avoid the possibility of the
engine over-heating.
o During winter months or in periods when
the air conditioning is not used regu-
larly, run the air conditioning once ev-
ery month for a few minutes. This will
help circulate the lubricants and keep
your system in peak operating condi-
tion.
