climate settings PONTIAC BONNEVILLE 1998 Owners Manual

Comfort Controls Temperature Knob
This section tells you how to make your air system work
for
you. Your comfort control system uses
ozone-friendly
R- 134a refrigerant.
With these systems, you can control the heating, cooling
and ventilation
in your vehicle. Your vehicle also has a
flow-through ventilation system described later
in
this section.
Standard Climate Control System
Fan Knob
The left knob is the fan knob and selects the force of air
you want. Turn the knob to the right to increase fan
speed and to the left to decrease fan speed. The fan will
always run unless the right control
knob is turned to
OFF. The fan must be on to run the air
conditioning compressor. The center control regulates the temperature
of the air
coming through the system.
Turn it toward the blue area
for cooler
air. Turn it toward the red area for wanner air.
Mode Knob
The right control has settings for air conditioning and
non-air conditioning modes. The mode control allows
you to choose the direction of
air delivery.
MAX: This setting provides maximum cooling with the
least amount
of work. MAX recirculates much of the air
inside your vehicle so it cools quickly. The air is
directed through the instrument panel outlets.
NC: This setting cools the air entering your vehicle
and directs it through the instrument panel outlets. The
air conditioning compressor operates in all air
conditioner positions.
1fl BI-LEVEL: This setting directs air into your
vehicle in two
ways. Cool air is directed to the upper
portion
of your body through the middle instrument
panel outlets
while warmed air is directed to the floor.
@ VENT: This setting directs airflow through the
middle instrument panel outlets. The air conditioning
compressor
is not working when VENT is selected.
