Section 3 Comfort Controls and Audio Systems
In this section you’ll find out how to operate the comfort
control systems and audio systems offered with your
Pontiac. Be sure to read about the particular system
supplied with your vehicle.
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.
3f FAN: The left control knob sets the Fan speed.
To select the force of air you want, turn the knob. The
fan
is always running unless the mode control is moved
to OFF.
Temperature Control: The center control knob
regulates the temperature of the air coming through the
system.
Mode Control: The right control knob changes the
functions
of your system.
BI-LEVEL: Use on cool, but sunny 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.
