the radio frequency is being displayed, time keeping is
accurately maintained.

Outside air comes from the outlets in the instrument
panel. Each of these outlets can be individually
adjusted to direct the flow of air. Also, a slight amount of
airflow may be noticed at the defrost outlet located at the
base of the windshield.
