3-3
(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. Half of the air is directed through
the vent outlets. Most of the remaining air is directed
through the floor ducts and a small amount to the defrost
and side window vents.
(Floor): This setting sends most of the air through
the ducts near the floor. The remaining airflow comes
out of the defroster and side window vents.
(Defogger): This setting allows half of the air to
go to the floor ducts and half to the defroster and side
window vents.
FRONT (Defroster): This setting directs most of
the air through the defroster. Some of the air goes to the
floor ducts and the side window vent. The air conditioning
compressor will run automatically in this setting unless the
outside temperature is below 38F (3.3C).
Air Conditioning Compressor Button
Press the A/C button to operate the air conditioning
compressor. The indicator light above the button will
glow when the button is pressed. You don't have topress the button to run the compressor in MAX
or defrost because it will already be running in
these modes.
Air Conditioning
On very hot days, open the windows long enough to let
hot, inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for
the vehicle to cool down.
For quick cool down on very hot days, turn the fan on
and use MAX with the temperature levers all the way in
the blue area. If this setting is used for long periods of
time, the air in your vehicle may become too dry.
For normal cooling on hot days, turn the fan on and use
vent with the temperature levers in the blue area and the
A/C button pressed in. The system will bring in outside
air and cool it.
On cool, but sunny days, the sun may warm your upper
body, but your lower body may not be warm enough. To
remedy this, you can use bi
-level with the temperature
levers in the middle and the A/C button pushed in. The
system will bring in outside air and direct it to your
upper body, while sending slightly warmed air to your
lower body.
