registers. However, the air cannot be cooled below the outside

will remain unchanged and air will be cooled based on the selected
temperature. To exit, press AUTOMATIC or any other override
controls. MAX A/C is noisier than normal A/C but more economical
and will cool the inside of the vehicle faster. Airflow is from the

undesirable odors from entering the vehicle.

periods of time only, use this mode to reduce undesirable odors from
entering the vehicle.

the outside air temperature. It will
be displayed until OUTSIDE TEMP

seconds.
The outside temperature reading is most accurate when the vehicle is
moving. Higher readings may be obtained when the vehicle is not
moving. The readings that you get may not agree with temperatures
given on the radio due to differences in vehicle and station locations.
