CLIMATE CONTROLS
Manual Air Conditioning/Heater Operation
The Air Conditioning System allows you to balance the
temperature, amount, and direction of the air circulating
throughout the vehicle.
The controls are as follows:
Fan Control
Use this control to regulate the amount of air forced
through the system in any mode you select. Turn the
control clockwise to increase fan speed. Turn the controlto the O (Off) position to shut off the fan and to prevent
any outside air from entering the vehicle. This also turns
off the A/C compressor.
Temperature Control
Use this control to regulate the temperature of the air
inside the passenger compartment. The blue area of the
control indicates cooler temperatures while the red area
indicates warmer temperatures.
Mode Control
Use this control to direct the flow of air as follows:
NOTE:The dot between the mode control icons is a mix
position between the two modes.
Recirculate
Air is recirculated inside the vehicle. You may
choose between Bi-Level and Panel air outlets
while in this mode. Use this mode to temporarily
block out any outside odors, smoke, or dust and to
cool the interior rapidly upon initial start up in very
hot or humid weather.

near the windshield glass. The In-Car Temperature Sen-
sor is mounted behind the ATC control panel. These
sensors transmit data on sun strength and vehicle interior
temperatures to enhance system performance.
CAUTION!
Do not cover either sensor with any foreign material
as improper operation of the system will result.
Level Of Automatic Control
72°F (22°C) is the recommended setting for maximum
comfort for the average person, however, this may vary.
NOTE:The temperature setting can be adjusted at any
time without affecting automatic control operation.
The control also will show what Mode the system is in by
the figure shown in the display.
NOTE:The Mode can change when the system is in the
Auto Mode. This will be indicated in changes in the
display window. This shows automatic changes in air
direction.
Fan Control
Use this control to regulate the amount of air forced
through the system in any mode you select. Turn the
control clockwise to increase fan speed.
In ambient temperatures below 70°F (21°C), fan opera-
tion is delayed when the engine is first started. The fan
will automatically start when the engine coolant is warm
enough to heat the air. This feature can be defeated by
turning the fan control.
AUTO Control
Press the top of the button to turn the ATC system On.
Press the lower portion of the button to turn the entire
system Off.
Comfort Control
Use this control to regulate the comfort inside the pas-
senger compartment. Press the top of the switch to raise
the temperature selection and the bottom of the switch to
lower it. The comfort setting range is from Lo, 60, 61,....to
89,90, Hi, for automatic temperature control. You can
select a very hot or cold comfort setting by holding the
comfort control until it reaches its highest or lowest
levels.
