the  fan  off,  turn  the  knob  to  OFF.  The fan  must  be  on  to 
run  the air  conditioning  compressor.

coming  through  the  system.  Turn  this  knob  toward  red  (clockwise)  for warmer  air.  Turn  it toward  blue 
(counterclockwise)  for cooler  air.

direction  of airflow.  For each  setting,  set  the  temperature 
to  a  comfortable  setting.

system 
is not  in AUTO.  The display  will  show  the

lit,  the  knob  sets  the  temperature  for the  driver.  Turn  the 
knob  toward  red  (clockwise)  to raise  the temperature.

temperature.

the  air temperature 
on 
the passenger's  side so 
it is  warmer  or colder 
than  the temperature  set.

so the light 
on  it is lit.  Turn the knob  on the door  toward  red 
(clockwise) to raise the temperature.  Turn it toward  blue 
(counterclockwise) to lower the temperature. 
Mode  Buttons 
The  center  panel  has  several  settings  to  control  the  direction \
of  airflow  when  the  system  is  not  in  AUTO.  The  indicator 
light  on  the  button  will  glow  when  the  button  is  pressed. 
RECIRC: This setting can recirculate  either the air 
inside  of your  vehicle  or outside air  and  send  it  through 
the  instrument panel outlets. Press  this button once  and 
it will recirculate outside  air.  Press it again  and  it will 
recirculate  the air inside 
of your  vehicle. This setting  is 
available  in  LOWER,  DEFOG,  UPPER  and  BI-LEV. 
UPPER: This setting brings  in outside  air and  directs it 
through  the instrument panel outlets. 
BI-LEV: This setting  brings in the outside air  and 
directs it  two  ways.  Half  of  the air is directed  through 
the  instrument  panel outlets.  Most of the remaining  air is 
directed  through the floor  ducts  and 
a little to the defrost 
and  side  window  vents. 
LOWER: This setting sends  most of the air through  the 
ducts  near  the floor.  The rest comes out  of the defrost 
and  side  window  vents. 
DEFOG: This setting  allows  half  of  the air to  go  to  the 
floor  ducts  and  half  to  the  defrost  and  side  window  vents. 
DEF: This setting directs  most of the air through  the 
defrost  and side  window  vents.  Some of the air goes  to 
the floor ducts.  The air conditioning  compressor  will  run 
automatically  in this setting  unless the outside 
temperature is  below 40°F (4.5"C). 
Automatic Control 
For  the  most  efficient  operation,  you  should  press  the knob 
and  set  the  system  temperature.  The  system  will  select  the 
best  fan  speed  and  airflow  settings  to  keep  you  comfortable. 
The 
air conditioning  compressor  will  run if the  outside 
temperature  is  above  40°F 
(4.5 "C). You  may  notice  a delay 
of  three  to  four  minutes  before  the  fan  comes  on.

’ 30 to 45 minutes  long on each  side.  Tapes  longer  than 
that 
are so thin  they  may  not  work  well  in  this  player. 
The  longer  side  with 
the tape  visible  should  face to  the 
right.

open  end  down  and  try  to  turn  the  right  hub 
counterclockwise  with  a  pencil.  Turn  the  tape  over 
and  repeat.  If the  hubs  do  not  turn  easily,  your  tape 
may  be  damaged  and  should  not  be  used  in  the 
player.

working  properly.
