NOTE: When switching air flow outlets, the
A/C system remains activated unless the
A/C button is pressed to the OFF position.
The indicator light on the A/C button re-
mains illuminated unless the button is
pressed to the OFF position, or the OFF air
control position is selected.
Cooling
This mode is used to cool and dehumidify.
1. Move the air control dial to the
po-
sition.
2. Turn the fan control dial to select speed.
3. Push the air conditioner button. The indi-
cator light comes on.
4. Move the temperature control dial to the
desired position.
cFor quick cooling when the outside tem-
perature is high, move the air control dial
to the MAX A/C position. Be sure to
return the air control dial to the
po-
sition for normal cooling.
cOpening the windows helps to vent heat
buildup when parked in the sun.
Dehumidified heating
This mode is used to heat and dehumidify.
1. Move the air control dial to the
po-
sition.
2. Turn the fan control dial to select speed.
3. Push the air conditioner button. The indi-
cator light comes on.
4. Move the temperature control dial to the
desired position.
Dehumidified defogging
This mode is used to defog the windows
and dehumidify.
1. Move the air control dial to the
po-
sition.
2. Turn the fan control dial to the desired
speed.
3. Move the temperature control dial to the
desired position.
When the
position is selected, the
air conditioner automatically turns on
(however, the indicator light will not illu-
minate) if the outside temperature is
more than 45ÉF (7ÉC). This dehumidifies
the air which helps defog the windshield.The air recirculation mode automatically
turns off, allowing outside air to be drawn
into the passenger compartment which
helps defog the windshield.
Operating tips
cKeep windows and sun roof closed while
the air conditioner is in operation.
cAfter parking in the sun, drive for two or
three minutes with the windows open to
vent hot air from the passenger compart-
ment. Then, close the windows. This
allows the air conditioner to cool the
interior more quickly.
cThe air conditioning system should be
operated for about ten minutes at
least once a month. This helps pre-
vent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
cIf the engine coolant temperature gauge
exceeds the H (hot) position, turn the air
conditioner off. See ``If your vehicle over-
heats'' in the ``In case of emergency''
section for additional information.
