The ATC maintains the temperature you select and
automatically controls the airflow for your comfort. It also
allows you to override the automatic operation of airflow and
fan speed with manual function selector buttons and the fan
speed dial.
[IP10335(ALL)06/95]
When you select the AUTOMATIC button, the system
determines airflow location and fan speed automatically. It also
automatically determines whether you will be receiving fresh
outside airflow, recirculated interior airflow, or a combination of
both. You can manually override the airflow source (outside or
recirculated air) and airflow location by selecting one of the
function selector buttons. You can also manually override the
fan speed by rotating the fan speed dial.
[IP10340(ALL)06/95]
Whether you operate in the AUTOMATIC mode or manually
override the AUTOMATIC mode settings, the ATC will continue
to maintain the air temperature you have selected. However, if
you choose to manually override the airflow location by
selecting one of the function selector buttons, you will also need
to select the A/C button if you desire cool air-conditioned air.
(Your ATC automatically operates the air conditioning [if
required] when you are in the AUTOMATIC mode without
illuminating the A/C button, but the system requires you to
manually select the A/C button if you desire A/C operation
when you manually override airflow location.)
[IP10350(ALL)06/95]
If you want continuous maximum cooling, push theNside of
the TEMP button until60ÊF (16ÊC)shows in the display
window. The ATC will cool at its maximum level and disregard
the 60ÊF (16ÊC)setting until a warmer temperature is selected. If
you want continuous maximum heating, push theMside of the
TEMP button until90ÊF (32ÊC)shows in the display window.
The ATC will provide maximum heat regardless of the90ÊF
(32ÊC) setting until a cooler temperature is selected.

[IP10360(ALL)06/95]
The display window and the function selector buttons indicate
how the system is operating. The display window shows the
selected temperature and displays AUTO if you are operating in

selector button(s) illuminate. The display window also indicates

Automatic Operation
[IP10380(ALL)06/95]
Push the AUTOMATIC button and select the desired
temperature. The selected temperature and AUTO appear in the
display window. The ATC heats or cools to achieve the set
temperature. It is important to note that if the ATC engages
your vehicle's air-conditioning, it will do so automatically
without illuminating the A/C button.
[IP10390(ALL)06/95]
When in AUTOMATIC and weather conditions require heat, air
is sent to the floor. However, a feature is included in the ATC
to prevent blowing cold air to the floor if the engine coolant is
not warm enough to provide heating. Within three or four
minutes (of determining the engine coolant is not warm enough)
the fan speed gradually increases and airflow changes to the
floor.
[IP10400(ALL)06/95]
If specific conditions exist (such as window fogging) the five
override buttons allow specific airflow selection. The
thumbwheel allows you to adjust the fan speed to suit your
needs.

(18ÊC) or 85ÊF (29ÊC).Then, the set temperature jumps 5ÊF and
stops at either60ÊF (16ÊC),which is maximum cooling, or90ÊF
(32ÊC),which is maximum heating.

[IP10430(ALL)06/95]
Fan Speed and Thumbwheel
[IP10440(ALL)06/95]
The ATC automatically adjusts the fan speed to the existing
conditions. To control the fan speed yourself, use the
thumbwheel located at the extreme right side of the ATC
control panel. Using the thumbwheel cancels the automatic fan
speed control, and causes a
Hto appear in the display window.
Rotate the thumbwheel up for HI speeds and down for LO
speeds.

To return to auto fan control, press the AUTOMATIC button.
[IP10460(ALL)06/95]
Airflow Function Selector Buttons
[IP10470(ALL)06/95]
Your ATC has five buttons which allow you to make special
selections for airflow. The buttons are grouped in the middle of
the ATC panel and allow you to determine airflow location.
Pressing any of the function selector buttons illuminates the
button pushed and directs airflow to the appropriate location.
The temperature of the airflow will still be automatically
controlled. Return to fully automatic operation by pushing the
