according to the function selected.
With the "Recirculation" mode selected, air from
within the passenger compartment will be drawn
through the heating system and heated or
cooled according to the function selected.NOTE:It should be noted that prolonged opera-
tion of the heating in "Recirculation" mode

) may result in fogging of the wind-
shield and side windows and the air within
the passenger compartment will become
stale. In addition, prolonged use of the air
conditioning with the "Recirculation" mode
( ) selected may result in the air within
the passenger compartment becoming ex-
cessively dry.

B740D01A-AATOperation Tipso 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 compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air conditioning off
to avoid the possibility of the engine over-
heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the
air conditioning is not used regularly, run the
air conditioning once every month for a few
minutes. This will help circulate the lubri-
cants and keep your system in peak oper-
ating condition.
