Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If your vehicle is sitting out on a hot day and you have it
set on AUTO, the air will first flow out the floor air
outlets for a few seconds. That is normal. This
is to
expel hot air from the air outlets. As the air
is cooled,
the airflow will move through
the air conditioning
outlets. If you start your vehicle with the fan setting
on
HI, it will skip the air conditioning purge.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system
will delay turning on the fan until warm air is available.
The length
of delay depends on the outside air
temperature, engine coolant temperature
or the time
since the engine was last started.
As the coolant warms
up,
the blower fan speed will gradually increase and air
will flow from the heater outlets, with some aifflow
to the windshield to prevent fogging under most
normal conditions.
If you leave your vehicle, the system will remember the
control setting the next time
you start your engine,
except for recirculation and defrost. Each ignition cycle
cancels recirculation, whereas,
DEFROST will change
to automatic operation when the ignition is
shut off and
then turned back on.
Manual Operation
You may manually adjust the air delivery mode or
fan speed.
/J AC: This setting directs airflow through the
A0
middle instrument panel outlets.
l# BI-LEVEL: This setting directs air into your
vehicle in two ways.
Cool air is directed to the upper
portion
of your body through the four instrument panel
outlets while warmed air is directed to the floor.
'fl HEATER/DEFROST: This setting directs air to
the floor outlets and toward the windshield.
I# HEATER: This'setting directs warmed air
through the
floor outlets. Some warm air is diverted to
the windshield to minimize fogging.

of the airflow to the windshield with only a small
amount
