you want. To turn the fan off, turn the knob to OFF.
Ten1perat.w-e Control
If your system does not have the auxiliary temperature
control option, the right knob changes the temperature
of the air coming through the system. Turn this knob
toward red (clockwise) for warmer air. Turn
it toward
blue (counterclockwise) for cooler air.
If your system does have the auxiliary temperature control
option, the center levers change the temperature of the air
coming through the system. The
DRIV lever sets the
temperature for the driver
and rear seat passengers, and
the
PASS lever sets the temperature for the front seat
passenger. For maximum defroster performance, set the
DRIV and PASS levers at full warm.
Mode Knob
The left knob has several settings to control the direction
of airflow. For each setting, set the temperature to
a
comfortable setting.
MAX: This setting recirculates much of the air inside
your vehicle and sends it through the instrument
panel outlets.
A/C: This setting brings in outside air and directs it
through the instrument panel outlets.
+fl BI-LEVEL: This setting brings in the outside
air and directs
it two ways. Half of the air is directed
through the instrument panel outlets. Most of the
remaining air
is directed through the floor ducts and a
little to
the defrost and side window vents.

On very hot days, open the windows long enough to let
hot, inside air escape. This reduces
the time the
compressor has to
run, which should help fuel economy.
For quick cool-down on very hot days, use
MAX with
the temperature control all
the way in the blue area. If
this setting is used for long periods of time, the air in
your vehicle may become too dry.
For normal cooling on hot days, use A/C with
the
temperature control in the blue area. The system will
bring in outside air and cool
it.
On cool but sunny days, the sun may warm your upper
body, but your lower body may
not be warm enough.
You can use BI-LEVEL with the temperature control in
the middle. The system will bring in outside air and
direct
it to your upper body, while sending slightly
warmed air to your lower body.
You may notice this
temperature difference more at some times than others.
Heating
On cold days use FLOOR with the temperature control
all the way in the red area. The system will bring in
outside air, heat it and send it to the floor ducts. cold
outside
(0°F (-18°C) or lower). An engine coolant
heater warms the coolant your engine and heating
system use to provide heat. See “Engine Coolant
Heater”
in the Index.
Ventilation System
Adjust the direction of airflow by moving the
louvered vents.
Your vehicle’s flow-through ventilation system supplies
outside air into the vehicle when
it is moving. Outside
air
will also enter the vehicle when the air conditioning
fan is running.
If your vehicle has an engine coolant heater, you can use
it to help your system provide warm air faster when it’s
