conditioning system
[IP01435(M )08/93]
The heating system in the optional heating and
air conditioning system operates the same as the
heater only system. SeeThe Heater Only System.
[IP01440(M )05/95]
To cool your vehicle quickly in warm weather,
turn the SELECT knob to MAX A/C, turn the
TEMP knob all the way to the end of the blue
range (full left) and turn the FAN knob to HI.
MAX A/C uses recirculated air and is the most
fuel efficient way to cool your vehicle and can
also be used in heavy traffic to prevent exhaust
fumes from entering the vehicle. MAX A/C can
also be used in high humidity areas for more
efficient operation.
[IP01445(M )08/93]
If the interior of your vehicle is very warm,
drive for the first few minutes with the windows
open. This forces most of the hot, stale air out of
the vehicle and allows the air conditioning to
work faster.
% [IP01450(M )05/95]
To cool your vehicle using outside air, turn the
SELECT knob to NORM A/C, turn the TEMP
knob all the way to the end of the blue range
(full left) and turn the FAN knob to the desired
speed between LO and HI. NORM A/C
provides quieter system operation than MAX
A/C.
