require heat, air will be sent to the floor. But, a
feature is included in your EATC to prevent
blowing cold air to the floor if the engine
coolant is not warm enough to allow heating.

minutes or less, the fan speed will start to
increase and the airflow will change to the floor
area.

Your EATC has six buttons which allow you to
make special selections. The buttons are located
along the bottom edge of the EATC control and
allow you to determine where the air will be
discharged. Pressing any override button
changes the air discharge location only. It does
not affect the ability of the system to control
temperature or the fan speed. Return to fully

MAX A/C button
[IP19201( GV)05/94]
The MAX A/C feature allows for faster cooling
because air is drawn from inside the car. Using
inside air causes the fan to sound louder which
is normal for this selection. The Display window
will indicate MAX A/C under the selected
temperature. The airflow will be from the
instrument panel registers.
