where the fuel cap is located.

the fuel gauge pointer initially moves to E, for your

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

buttons on the radio.

Blower Switch
The blower switch is the rotary knob to the left of the
controls. The blower speed will increase as the knob
is turned clockwise. There are four blower speeds.

control knob is turned to the “Off” (“O”) position or the

mode, there may be some slight air flow from the
floor outlets, side window outlets, and defrost outlet
located at the base of the windshield.

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.
