The ATC maintains the temperature you select and
automatically controls the airflow for your comfort. It also
allows you to override the automatic operation of airflow and
fan speed with manual function selector buttons and the fan
speed dial.
[IP10335(ALL)06/95]
When you select the AUTOMATIC button, the system
determines airflow location and fan speed automatically. It also
automatically determines whether you will be receiving fresh
outside airflow, recirculated interior airflow, or a combination of
both. You can manually override the airflow source (outside or
recirculated air) and airflow location by selecting one of the
function selector buttons. You can also manually override the
fan speed by rotating the fan speed dial.
[IP10340(ALL)06/95]
Whether you operate in the AUTOMATIC mode or manually
override the AUTOMATIC mode settings, the ATC will continue
to maintain the air temperature you have selected. However, if
you choose to manually override the airflow location by
selecting one of the function selector buttons, you will also need
to select the A/C button if you desire cool air-conditioned air.
(Your ATC automatically operates the air conditioning [if
required] when you are in the AUTOMATIC mode without
illuminating the A/C button, but the system requires you to
manually select the A/C button if you desire A/C operation
when you manually override airflow location.)
[IP10350(ALL)06/95]
If you want continuous maximum cooling, push theNside of
the TEMP button until60ÊF (16ÊC)shows in the display
window. The ATC will cool at its maximum level and disregard
the 60ÊF (16ÊC)setting until a warmer temperature is selected. If
you want continuous maximum heating, push theMside of the
TEMP button until90ÊF (32ÊC)shows in the display window.
The ATC will provide maximum heat regardless of the90ÊF
(32ÊC) setting until a cooler temperature is selected.

Instrument Panel Controls
105
[IP10360(ALL)06/95]
The display window and the function selector buttons indicate
how the system is operating. The display window shows the
selected temperature and displays AUTO if you are operating in
the AUTOMATIC mode. If you override the automatic mode by
selecting any of the function selector buttons, AUTO no longer
appears in the display window and the appropriate function
selector button(s) illuminate. The display window also indicates
manual (thumbwheel) control of the fan speed when a
His
shown.
[IP10370(ALL)06/95]
Automatic Operation
[IP10380(ALL)06/95]
Push the AUTOMATIC button and select the desired
temperature. The selected temperature and AUTO appear in the
display window. The ATC heats or cools to achieve the set
temperature. It is important to note that if the ATC engages
your vehicle's air-conditioning, it will do so automatically
without illuminating the A/C button.
[IP10390(ALL)06/95]
When in AUTOMATIC and weather conditions require heat, air
is sent to the floor. However, a feature is included in the ATC
to prevent blowing cold air to the floor if the engine coolant is
not warm enough to provide heating. Within three or four
minutes (of determining the engine coolant is not warm enough)
the fan speed gradually increases and airflow changes to the
floor.
[IP10400(ALL)06/95]
If specific conditions exist (such as window fogging) the five
override buttons allow specific airflow selection. The
thumbwheel allows you to adjust the fan speed to suit your
needs.

Temperature Selection
[IP10420(ALL)06/95]
TheNTEMPMbutton on the left side of the control panel is
for temperature selection. TheNside lowers the set
temperature, and theMside raises the set temperature. Press
and hold either side of the button to rapidly change the
temperature setting in one degree increments to either65ÊF
(18ÊC) or 85ÊF (29ÊC).Then, the set temperature jumps 5ÊF and
stops at either60ÊF (16ÊC),which is maximum cooling, or90ÊF
(32ÊC),which is maximum heating.
[IP10423(ALL)05/96]
Changing the Display Mode (English/Metric)
[IP10425(ALL)05/96]
To switch between the English and Metric display mode, press
the DEFROST and A/C buttons simultaneously while rotating
the fan speed dial upward until it stops moving. After one
second, the display will begin to toggle between English and
Metric.
[IP10430(ALL)06/95]
Fan Speed and Thumbwheel
[IP10440(ALL)06/95]
The ATC automatically adjusts the fan speed to the existing
conditions. To control the fan speed yourself, use the
thumbwheel located at the extreme right side of the ATC
control panel. Using the thumbwheel cancels the automatic fan
speed control, and causes a
Hto appear in the display window.
Rotate the thumbwheel up for HI speeds and down for LO
speeds.
[IP10450(ALL)06/95]
To return to auto fan control, press the AUTOMATIC button.
[IP10460(ALL)06/95]
Airflow Function Selector Buttons
[IP10470(ALL)06/95]
Your ATC has five buttons which allow you to make special
selections for airflow. The buttons are grouped in the middle of
the ATC panel and allow you to determine airflow location.
Pressing any of the function selector buttons illuminates the
button pushed and directs airflow to the appropriate location.
The temperature of the airflow will still be automatically
controlled. Return to fully automatic operation by pushing the
AUTOMATIC button.

commercially available cleaners or antistatic spray intended
for analog records.
*
[AS32260(ALL)04/95]
n
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources
such as defroster and floor heating ducts. Do not leave any
discs in a parked car in direct sunlight where there may be a
considerable rise in temperature or damage may result.
*
[AS32270(ALL)04/95]
n
After playing, store the disc in its case.
[AS32280(ALL)06/95]
n
If a disc has already been inserted, do not try to insert

[SV18550(ALL)08/95]
NOTE: Be sure to read and understandPrecautions When
Servicing Your Vehicleat the beginning of this chapter.
[SV18600(ALL)01/93]
Your vehicle's engine coolant protects the engine from
overheating in the summer and from freezing in the winter.
Check the level of the engine coolant at least once a month, but
preferably each time you stop for fuel. Simply check the coolant
reservoir, located in the engine compartment. The coolant
should stay between the MIN and MAX marks. It will be closer
to MAX when the engine is warm and closer to MIN when the
engine is cold. To locate the coolant reservoir, see the diagram
of your vehicle's engine underEngine Compartmentin this
chapter.
