During operation of the air conditioner,
you may notice slight changes in engine
speed. These changes are normal, the sys-
tem is designed so that the compressor
turns on or off to maintain the desired
temperature.
Less operation of the compressor results
in better fuel economy.
SYSTEM OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Natural ventilation
Select “VENTILATION” and “FRESH
AIR”, the temperature selector to the de-
sired temperature position, and the blow-
er speed selector to “OFF”. Fresh air will
flow through the vehicle during driving.
Forced ventilation
The control settings are the same as for
natural ventilation except you set the
blower speed selector to a position oth-
er than “OFF”.Normal heating (using outside air)
Select “HEAT” and “FRESH AIR”, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position and the blower speed
selector to the desired blower speed po-
sition. Setting the blower speed selector
to a higher blower speed position in-
creases heating efficiency.
Quick heating
(using recirculated air)
The control settings are the same as for
normal heating except you select “RE-
CIRCULATED AIR”. If you use this heat-
ing method for an extended period of
time, the air in the vehicle can become
contaminated and the windows can be-
come misty. Therefore, use this method
only for quick heating and change to the
normal heating method as soon as possi-
ble. Recirculated Air (g)
When this mode is selected, the indicator
light will come on, outside air is shut out
and inside air is recirculated. This mode is
suitable when driving through dusty or
polluted air such as in a tunnel, or when
attempting to quickly cool down the in-
terior.
“FRESH AIR” and “RECIRCULATED AIR”
are switched alternately each time the air
intake selector is pushed.
NOTE If you select “RECIRCULATED
AIR” for an extended period of time, the
air in the vehicle can become contami-
nated. Therefore, you should occasional-
ly select “FRESH AIR”.
Air conditioning switch (5)
To turn on the air conditioning system,
push in the “A/C” switch and set the blow-
er speed selector to a position other than
“OFF”. With this “A/ C” switch operation,
a indicator light will come on when the air
conditioning system is on. To turn off the
air conditioning system, push the “A/C”
switch again.

103
Quick cooling
(using recirculated air)
The control settings are the same as for
normal cooling except you select “RE-
CIRCULATED AIR” and the highest blow-
er speed.
NOTE
❒If you select “RECIRCULATED AIR”
for an extended period of time, the air
in the vehicle can become contaminat-
ed. Therefore, you should occasional-
ly select “FRESH AIR”.
❒If your vehicle has been left in the sun
with the windows closed, it will cool
faster if you open the windows briefly
while you operate the air conditioner
with the air intake selector at “FRESH
AIR” and the blower at high speed.
Dehumidifying
Turn on the “A/C” switch, set the air flow
selector to a desired air flow selector po-
sition, and select “FRESH AIR”, the tem-
perature selector to the desired temper-
ature position, and the blower speed se-
lector to the desired blower speed posi-
tion.NOTE Because the air conditioner dehu-
midifies the air, turning it on will help keep
the windows clear, even when blowing
heated air using the “DEFROST” or
“HEAT & DEFROST” functions.
NOTE If you need maximum defrosting:
❒select “DEFROST” and “FRESH AIR”,
❒turn on the “A/C” switch,
❒set the blower speed selector to HIGH,
❒adjust the temperature selector to the
HOT end, and
❒adjust the side outlets so the air blows
on the side windows. Head cooled/ Feet warmed heating
Select “BI-LEVEL” and “FRESH AIR”, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position, and the blower speed se-
lector to the desired blower speed posi-
tion. Unless the temperature selector is in
the fully COLD position or fully HOT po-
sition, the air that comes out of the cen-
ter and side outlets will be cooler than the
air that comes out of the floor outlets.
Normal cooling
Turn on the “A/C” switch, set the air flow
selector to “VENTILATION”, the tem-
perature selector to the desired temper-
ature position and the blower speed se-
lector to the desired blower speed posi-
tion. Setting the blower speed selector to
a higher blower speed position increases
cooling efficiency.
You can switch the air intake selector to
either “FRESH AIR” or “RECIRCULAT-
ED AIR” as you desire. Choosing “RE-
CIRCULATED AIR” increases cooling ef-
ficiency.
