Move the lever to change the temperature of the air
flowing from the system. Move it to the right for
warmer air and to the left for cooler air.
Air Control Buttons
OFF: The system is off.
RECIRCULATE: Provides maximum cooling or
quick cool-down
on very hot days. This setting
recirculates most of the air inside your vehicle. If it is
used for long periods of time, the air may become dry.
This setting directs air through the upper air vents. It
will work when the outside temperatures are above
freezing.
'''9 NORMAL A/C: Use for normal cooling on hot
days. This setting cools outside air and directs it through
the instrument panel vents.
The air conditioner compressor also operates in
DEFROST. It only works when the outside temperature is
above freezing. When the air conditioner compressor is on,
you may sometimes notice slight changes in your vehicle's
engine speed and power. This is normal because the
system
is designed to cycle the compressor on and off to
keep the desired cooling and help fuel economy.

A.
*P@ BI-LEVEL: This setting cools or heats outside air
and directs it through the instrument panel vents and the
floor ducts.
do
9 VENT: Air flows through the instrument panel
vents. The air conditioning compressor does not work in
VENT mode.
wj HEATER: This setting directs most of the air
through the floor ducts and some of the air through the
defroster vents. The air conditioning compressor does
not work in HEATER mode.
DEFROST This setting directs most of the air
through the windshield defroster and side window
defogger vents and some of the air through the floor
ducts.
Heating
The heater works best if you keep your windows closed
while using it.
Press HEATER and FAN UP, then slide the temperature
control lever to a comfortable setting.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If your vehicle has an engine coolant heater and you use
it in cold weather,
0 “F (- 18 “C) or lower, your heating
system can provide heat more quickly because the
engine coolant is already warmed. See “Engine Coolant
Heater” in the Index.
Bi-Level
You may want to use BI-LEVEL on cool, but sunny
days. This setting directs outside air through the
instrument panel vents and the floor ducts.
Press BI-LEVEL and FAN UP, then slide the
temperature control lever to a comfortable setting.
Ventilation
For mild outside temperatures, when little heating or
cooling is needed, you can still direct outside air through
your vehicle.
Press VENT and FAN UP, then slide the temperature
control lever to a comfortable setting.
Defogging and Defrosting Windows
Your vehicle has several settings for clearing your
windows. The air conditioner compressor will run to
help remove moisture from the air.
To defrost the windshield quickly, press
DEFROST and
FAN UP, then slide the temperature control lever all the
way to the right or to the FULL
HOT position.
To defrost the side windows quickly, press BI-LEVEL
and FAN UP. Then slide the temperature control lever
all the way to the right. Direct airflow through the air
conditioning outlets closest to the side windows.

I
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog from the rear window. The power mirrors
are also warmed when the rear window defogger is on.
Press the button with the defog symbol on it to turn on
the defogger. (The button is on the lower right on the
manual system and on the upper right on the automatic
system.) An indicator light will come on to remind you
that the defogger is
on. The defogger will turn off
automatically after about ten minutes of use. You can also
turn the defogger off by pressing the switch again
or by turning off the ignition.
Do not attach anything like a tempbrary vehicle license
or a decal across the defogger grid
on the rear window.
I NOTICE:
Don’t use a razor blade or something else sharp
on the inside
of the rear window. If you do, you
could cut or damage the warming grid, and the repairs wouldn’t be covered
by your warranty.
Specially Treated Windshield (ZR-1)
Your ZR- 1 windshield is treated to reduce the amount of
solar heat entering your vehicle. It makes it easier for
your air conditioning system to keep you comfortable.
The windshield treatment reduces the effectiveness of
some carry-on electrical equipment. Therefore, there’s
an opening in the windshield treatment at the bottom
center of the windshield
so that carry-on electrical
equipment may be used.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Flow-Through Ventilation System
Your Corvette's flow-through ventilation system
supplies outside air into the vehicle when it is moving.
Outside air will also enter the vehicle when the heater or
the air conditioning fan is running.
Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or
any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater
and defroster will work far better, reducing the
chance of fogging the inside of your windows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, adjust the
fan to the highest speed for a few moments before
driving off. This helps clear the intake ducts
of snow
and moisture, and reduces the chance of fogging the
inside
of your windows.
Audio Systems
Your Delco@ audio system has been designed to operate
easily and give years
of listening pleasure. But you will
get the most enjoyment out of it
if you acquaint yourself
with
it first. Find out what your Delco system can do
and how to operate all its controls, to be sure you're
getting the most out of the advanced engineering that
went into it.
Setting the Clock
Press SET. Within five seconds, press and hold TUNE
until the correct hour appears. Press and hold TUNE
A
until the correct minute appears.
Noise Reduction
Your audio system has automatic Dolby@ B Noise
Reduction.

Laboratories Licensing Corporation.
