system, this light will
come on when you start
your engine and it will
stay on for three seconds.
That's normal.
If the light stays on, turn the ignition to OFF. Or, if

possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the engine
again to reset the system. If the light still stays on, or
comes on again while you're driving, your vehicle needs
service. If the regular brake system warning light isn't
on, you still have brakes, but you don't have anti
-lock
brakes. If the regular brake system warning light is
also on, you don't have anti
-lock brakes and there's a
problem with your regular brakes. See ªBrake System
Warning Lightº earlier in this section.
The anti
-lock brake system warning light should come
on briefly when you turn the ignition key to ON. If the
light doesn't come on then, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there is a problem.

Comfort Controls
This section tells you how to make your air system
work for you. With these systems, you can control the
ventilation and heating in your vehicle. Your vehicle
also has the flow
-through ventilation system described
later in this section.
Standard Climate Control System
Fan Knob
The left knob selects the force of air you want. Turn the
knob clockwise to increase fan speed and counterclockwise
to decrease fan speed. To turn the fan off, turn the mode
knob all the way counterclockwise to off. In any other
setting, the fan will run continuously.Temperature Knob
The center knob changes the temperature of the air coming
through the system. Turn this knob toward red (clockwise)
for warmer air. Turn it toward blue (counterclockwise) for
cooler air.
Mode Knob
The right knob has several settings to control the
direction of airflow. For each setting, set the temperature
to a comfortable setting.
VENT: This setting brings in outside air and
directs it through the instrument panel outlets.
BI-LEVEL: This setting brings in outside air
and directs it two ways. Some air is directed through
the instrument panel outlets. Most of the air is directed
through the floor ducts and a little to the defrost and
side window vents.
FLOOR: This setting sends most of the air
through the ducts near the floor. The rest comes out
of the defroster and side window vents.
DEFOG: This setting allows half of the air to
go to the floor ducts and half to the defroster and side
window vents.
