iescribed later in this section.

vi11 still come from the outlets at the
loor. Press any function button to turn
.he system on.
remperature Control Lever: This lever
:hanges the temperature of the air
:oming through the system. The higher
.he lever setting, the warmer the air.
8: Selects the force of air you want.
Press
LO to lower the fan speed, HI to
raise it.
Air Conditioning
On very hot days, open the windows
long enough to let hot inside air escape.
This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down, which should help
fuel economy.
There are three
air conditioning settings:
MAX: Provides maximum cooling or
quick cool-down on very hot days. This
setting also helps prevent outside odors
from entering your vehicle.
This setting recirculates much of the air
inside your vehicle, and it should not be
used for long periods because the air
may become too cold and dry. This
setting is not recommended if an
occupant is smoking.
NORM: Use for normal cooling on hot
days. This setting brings in outside air, cools
it and directs it through the
instrument panel outlets.
BI-LEV (Bi-Level): Use on cool, but
sunny days. This setting brings in
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 most
warmed air is directed through the
heater ducts and a little to the defrost
and side window vents. At times this
temperature difference may be more
apparent than others.
Heating and Ventilation
When you don’t need to cool the
outside air, use these next settings. You
can leave the air as it is or heat it.
The air conditioner compressor doesn’t
run in these settings. This reduces the
engine load, resulting in improved fuel
economy (gas mileage).
VENT: For mild outside temperatures,
when little heating or cooling is needed,
push
VENT. Air flow is through the
instrument panel outlets. Slide the
temperature control lever to a
comfortable level.
