Climate Control System
With this system, you can control the
ventilation and heating in your vehicle.
Your vehicle
also has the flow-through
ventilation system described later in this
section.
Lever Controls: The upper lever
changes the functions of your system.
The lower lever changes the temperature
of the air coming through the system.
Slide the upper control lever to
OFF to
turn
off the system.
3f : Sets the fan speed. To select the
force of air you want,'turn the knob.
I06
VENT Use when outside temperatures
are mild and little heating or cooling is
needed. Air flow is through the
instrument panel outlets. Set the lower
lever to the temperature desired.
B/L (Bi-Level): Use on cool, but SUMY
days. This setting brings in the outside
air, but directs it in
two ways. The cool
air is directed to the upper portion of your
body through the instrument panel outlets,
but slightly warmer air is directed through
the heater ducts and defroster vents. At
times, this temperature difference may
be more apparent than others.
HTR (Heater): This setting brings
heated air through the heater ducts, and
some through the windshield defroster
vents.
If you have the optional engine block
heater and use it during cold weather,
0°F (-18°C) or lower, your heating
system will more quickly provide heat
because the engine coolant is already
warmed. See the
Index under Engine
Block Heater.
BLEND: This setting divides the air
flow equally between the heater ducts
and the windshield defroster vents.
DEF (Defrost): This setting directs
most air through the windshield
defroster vents, and some through the
heater ducts.
Defogging Windows
Slide the lower lever to HOT. To defog
the windows, set the upper lever to
DEF
and turn the fan control to HI.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative
rating based on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under controlled conditions
on a specified government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would
wear one and a half
(1%) times as well
on the government course as a tire
graded
100. The relative performance of
tires depends upon the actual conditions
of their use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to
variations in driving habits, service
practices and differences in road
characteristics and climate.
Traction-A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest are:
A, B, and C. They represent
the tire’s ability
to stop on wet pavement
as measured under controlled conditions
on specified government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete.
A tire marked C
may have poor traction performance.
Warning: The traction grade assigned
to this tire
is based on braking (straight-
ahead) traction tests and does
not
include cornering (turning) traction.
Temperature-A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the
highest),
B, and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of heat
and its ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled conditions on a
specified indoor laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause
the material of the tire to degenerate and
reduce tire life, and excessive
temperature can lead
to sudden tire
failure. The grade
C corresponds to a
level of performance which all
passenger car tires must meet under the
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
No. 109. Grades B and A represent
higher levels of performance
on the
laboratory test wheel than the minimum
required
by law.
