With the "Recirculation" mode selected, and air from within the passenger compartment will bedrawn through the heating system and heated orcooled according to the function selected. NOTE:
o It should be noted that prolonged opera- tion of the heating system in "recircula-tion" mode will give rise to fogging of thewindscreen and side windows and the airwithin the passenger compartment willbecome stale. In addition, prolonged useof the air conditioning with the "Recircu-lation" mode selected may result in the airwithin the passenger compartment be-coming excessively dry.
o When the ignition switch is turned "ON" the air intake control will change to "
"
mode (regardless of switch position). It is normal operation. The air intake control isoperated in "AUTO" mode when turningthe ignition to the ON position if the"AUTO" mode was used before shuttingoff the engine. Exhaust gas cutoff mode :
Air enters the vehicle from the outside. But if exhaust gas enters the vehicle from the outside, the exhaust gas cutoff mode ( ) is automa tically converted to the mode, to
prevent exhaust gas from entering the vehicle. NOTE:
o It should be noted that prolonged opera- tion of the heating system in recirculationmode ( ) will give rise to mis-ting ofthe windscreen and side windows and theair within the passenger compartment willbecome stale. In addition, prolonged useof the air conditioning with the recircula- tion mode ( ) selected may result in the air within the passenger compartmentbecoming excessively dry.
o When the ignition switch is turned "ON" the air intake control will change to "Fresh" mode (regardless of switch position). It isnormal operation. The air intake control isoperated in "AUTO" mode when turningthe ignition to the ON position if the"AUTO" mode was used before shuttingoff the engine.
CAUTION:If the windows fog up with the Recirculationor A.Q.S mode selected, set the air intakecontrol to the Fresh air position or A.Q.Scontrol to "OFF".This is used to select fresh outside air or recircu- late inside air automatically. : OFF

When selecting the "Face" mode, the indicator light will come on, causing air to be dischargedthrough the face level vents.
Bi-Level
When selecting the "Bi-Level" mode, the indica-tor light will come on and the air will be dischargedthrough the face vents and the floor vents. Thismakes it possible to have cooler air from thedashboard vents and warmer air from the flooroutlets at the same time.
Floor-Level
When selecting the "Floor-Level" mode, the indi-cator light will come on and the air will be dis-charged through the floor vents, windscreendefroster nozzle, side defroster nozzle, side ven-tilator.

The air conditioner filter is located in front of the blower uniit behind the glove box.It operates to decrease pollutants from enteringthe car and to filter the air. CAUTION:
o Replace the filter every 20,000 km (12,000 miles) or once a year. If the car is beingdriven in severe conditions such as dusty,rough roads, more frequent air filter in-spections and changes are required.
o When the air flow rate is decreased, it must be checked at an authorized dealer.

B740D01A-AAT Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot when you first get in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning sys- tem, keep all windows closed to keep hot airout.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic, shift to a lower gear. This increases engine speed,which in turn increases the speed of the airconditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air conditioner off to avoid the possibility of the engine over-heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioner is not used regularly, run theair conditioner once every month for a fewminutes. This will help circulate the lubricantsand keep your system in peak operatingcondition.

AM receptionB750A02A-AAT STEREO SOUND SYSTEM How Car Audio Works
FM reception
SSAR010A
AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from transmitter towers located around your city. Theyare intercepted by the radio antenna on your car.This signal is then received by the radio and sentto your car speakers.When a strong radio signal has reached yourvehicle, the precise engineering of your audiosystem ensures the best possible quality repro-duction. However, in some cases the signalcoming to your vehicle may not be strong andclear. This can be dueto factors such as the distance from the radiostation, closeness of other strong radio stationsor the presence of buildings, bridges or otherlarge obstructions in the area. AM broadcasts can be received at greater dis-tances than FM broadcasts. This is because AMradio waves are transmitted at low frequencies.These long, low frequency radio waves canfollow the curvature of the earth rather thantravelling straight out into the atmosphere. Inaddition, they curve around obstructions so thatthey can provide better signal coverage.
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequen-cies and do not bend to follow the earth's surface.Because of this, FM broadcasts generally beginto fade at short distances from the station. Also,FM signals are easily affected by buildings, moun-tains, or other obstructions. These can result incertain listening conditions which might lead youto believe a problem exists with your radio. Thefollowing conditions are normal and do not indi-cate radio trouble:

SSAR014A B750B02Y-AAT Using a cellular phone or a two-way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle, noise may be produced from the audio equip-ment. This does not mean that something iswrong with the audio equipment. In such a case,use the cellular phone at a place as far aspossible from the audio equipment. CAUTION: When using a communication system such acellular phone or a radio set inside the vehi-cle, a separate external antenna must befitted. When a cellular phone or a radio set isused with an internal antenna alone, it mayinterfere with the vehicle's electrical systemand adversely affect safe operation of thevehicle. WARNING: Don't use a cellular phone when you aredriving. Stop at a safe place to use a cellularphone.SSAR013A
o Station Swapping - As an FM signal weak-ens, another more powerful signal near the same frequency may begin to play. This isbecause your radio is designed to lock ontothe clearest signal. If this occurs, selectanother station with a stronger signal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from several directions can causedistortion or fluttering. This can be caused bya direct and reflected signal from the samestation, or by signals from two stations withclose frequencies. If this occurs, select an-other station until the condition has passed.
o Fading - As your car moves away from the
radio station, the signal will weaken and soundwill begin to fade. When this occurs, wesuggest that you select another stronger sta-tion.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the transmitter and yourradio can disturb the signal causing static orfluttering noises to occur. Reducing the treblelevel may lessen this effect until the distur-bance clears.
