[IP03800(ALL)10/93]
To heat the inside of your vehicle:
[IP03850(ALL)08/91]
1. Turn the function selector control to FLOOR.
[IP03900(ALL)08/91]
When FLOOR is selected, air is directed
through the floor registers, and a little air is
also directed at the windshield and side
windows to help prevent fogging.
[IP03975(ALL)08/91]
2. Turn the temperature control all the way to
the right in the red area, or to the desired
temperature.
[IP04000(ALL)08/91]

Sometimes you may notice slight engine surging
if you have the air conditioner on. This is
normal, as the system is designed to cycle the
compressor on and off to maintain desired
cooling. The reduced compressor operation
should benefit fuel economy.
*
[IP07000(ALL)01/95]
On some vehicles with air conditioning,
wide-open throttle acceleration will temporarily
cut off the air conditioning.
*
[IP07050(ALL)01/95]
Since the air conditioner removes a lot of
moisture from the air during operation, it is
normal for water to drip on the pavement under
the air conditioner drain after you have stopped
the vehicle.
[IP07150(ALL)08/91]
Action for heating and windshield defrosting are
identical for cars equipped with either the
Heating Only Systemor theHeating and Air
Conditioning System. For instructions about these
functions, see the previous section,Heating Only
System. For instructions about using the air
conditioning, see the following sections.
[IP07350(ALL)01/95]
MAX A/C
[IP07360(ALL)01/95]
When MAX A/C is selected, cooled interior air
is recirculated through the system. This position
is more efficient than NORM A/C.
*
[IP07375(ALL)09/93]
To cool your vehicle quickly in warm weather:
[IP07400(ALL)08/91]
1. Turn the function selector control to MAX
A/C.
[IP07450(ALL)08/91]
2. Turn the temperature control to the blue
(cool) area.
[IP07475(ALL)08/91]
3. Set the fan at the desired speed.
*
[IP07500(ALL)09/93]
If the inside of your vehicle is very warm,
drive for a few minutes with the windows
down. This forces most of the hot, stale air
out of the vehicle and helps the air
conditioning cool the vehicle faster.

usually more efficient than NORM A/C. You
can switch to outside air (NORM A/C) at any
time, especially after the vehicle has cooled
down.
[IP07560(ALL)11/91]
You will notice a slight odor when using the
MAX A/C position. This is normal. If the odor
becomes annoying, switch the function selector
to NORM A/C.
[IP07575(ALL)08/91]
To provide the most quiet operation when using
MAX A/C, reduce the fan speed after a
comfortable temperature has been reached.
[IP07800(ALL)04/95]
NORM A/C
[IP08025(ALL)01/94]
When maximum air conditioning is not needed,
you can use the NORM A/C position to cool
your vehicle with outside air. Cooling your
vehicle this way brings in outside air and is
quieter, but it is less efficient.
[IP08050(ALL)05/95]
To cool your vehicle using outside air:
[IP08075(ALL)08/91]
1. Turn the function selector control to NORM
A/C.
[IP08150(ALL)08/91]
2. Turn the temperature control all the way to
left to the blue (cool) area.
*
[IP08175(ALL)10/93]
3. Set the fan at the desired speed.
[IP08400(ALL)01/95]
In mild weather, setting the function selector
control in the VENT position will add cool air to
your vehicle without using the air conditioning.
You will get better fuel economy without using
the air conditioning.
