in through the grilles just ahead of the wind-
shield. Care should be taken that these are
not blocked by leaves, snow, ice or other
obstructions.

the air intake control to the fresh air ( )
position and fan speed to the desired posi-
tion.
o When the A/C is operated continuously on
the floor-defrost level ( ) or defrost level
( ), it may cause fog to form on the exterior
windshield by the temperature differencial.
At this time set the air flow control to the face
level position ( ) and fan speed control to
the low position.
