90 [IP12600( GV)03/94]Fan speed can be reduced, after a comfortable
temperature has been reached, to provide quieter
system operation.
[IP12800( GV)05/94]
To cool your vehicle using outside air, move the
SELECT knob to NORM A/C, move the TEMP
knob to the end of the blue range (full
counterclockwise) and set the fan to the desired
speed. Cooling your vehicle in this way provides
quieter operation, but it is not as economical as
MAX A/C.
[IP13000( GV)03/92]
The instrument panel registers may be adjusted
to control the quantity and direction of air being
discharged. The thumbwheel controls the volume
of air and the knob in the center of the register
directs the air up and down or side to side.
[IP13200( GV)05/94]
When the SELECT knob is moved to OFF, the
system is off and the fan will not operate.

[IP17300( GV)02/95]
When in AUTOMATIC and weather conditions
require heat, air will be sent to the floor. But, a
feature is included in your EATC to prevent
blowing cold air to the floor if the engine
coolant is not warm enough to allow heating.
For a short time the fan will be at low speed
and air directed to the windshield. In 3-1/2
minutes or less, the fan speed will start to
increase and the airflow will change to the floor
area.

[IP17400( GV)02/95]
If unusual conditions exist (i.e., window fogging,
etc.), the six manual override buttons allow you
to select special air discharge locations. A

The RED and BLUE buttons at the upper left of
the Control are for temperature selection. The
RED button will increase the set temperature
and the BLUE button will lower the set

will change the set temperature one degree.
Holding either button in will rapidly change the
temperature setting in one degree increments to
either65ÊF (18ÊC)(BLUE) or85ÊF(29ÊC)(RED).
Then, the set temperature will jump 5Ê and stop
at either60ÊF (16ÊC)which is maximum cooling
or 90ÊF (32ÊC)which is maximum heating.

The selected temperature displayed in the
window can be set for either 0ÊF or0ÊC.Your
car may have an English/Metric (E/M) Button
to change your speedometer from miles to
kilometers. When pressed, this button also
changes the temperature display. With or
without an E/M Button, the temperature display
can also be changed to 0ÊF or 0ÊC using the
MAX A/C and DEFrost override buttons.

You can override the fan speed at any time. If
you use the thumbwheel to override the fan
speed, the EATC will continue to control the
temperature but you control the fan speed. To
return to auto fan control, press the
AUTOMATIC button. If you are operating in
one of the override functions (FLOOR, MAX
A/C, etc.), automatic fan control will continue
unless you rotate the fan thumbwheel. To return
to automatic fan control, press the AUTOMATIC
button. The EATC will return to Automatic
operation. If you want to return to any override
function, press the button for that function. The
fan speed will continue to be automatically
controlled.

Manual override buttons
*
[IP19001( GV)02/95]
Your EATC has six buttons which allow you to
make special selections. The buttons are located
along the bottom edge of the EATC control and
allow you to determine where the air will be
discharged. Pressing any override button
changes the air discharge location only. It does
not affect the ability of the system to control
temperature or the fan speed. Return to fully
Automatic operation by pushing the
AUTOMATIC button.

[IP19101( GV)01/95]
MAX A/C button
[IP19201( GV)05/94]
The MAX A/C feature allows for faster cooling
because air is drawn from inside the car. Using
inside air causes the fan to sound louder which
is normal for this selection. The Display window
will indicate MAX A/C under the selected
temperature. The airflow will be from the
instrument panel registers.
