MAX A/C Button
[IP07300( X)03/95]
MAX A/C allows for faster cooling because air is drawn from

louder which is normal for this selection. The display window
will change to indicate60ÊF (16ÊC) and MAXA/C. The fan will
run at high speed and the air flow will be from the instrument
panel registers. To exit and return to the previous temperature,
push AUTOMATIC or any of the other 5 override buttons.
