is now calibrated.
5. Further calibration may be necessary
should outside. Influences cause the
mirror to read inaccurately. You will know
that this has occurred if your compass
begins to read in only limited directions.
Should you encounter this situation, return
to step one of the above procedure and
recalibrate the mirror. !
Compass zone adjustment

fan speeds. ! Air flow control dial
This dial has the following five positions:
: Air flows through the instrument panel
outlets.
: Air flows through the instrument panel
outlets and the foot outlets.
: Air flows through the foot outlets and
some through the windshield defroster outlets.
: Air flows through the windshield
defroster outlets and foot outlets.
: Air flows through the windshield
defroster outlets. NOTE . You will find the notation “USE WITH
” on the air flow control dial plate.
This is intended to remind you to set
the air inlet selection lever in the “
”
position when defogging the wind- shield.
Defogging with the air inlet selection
lever set in the “
”position provides better defogging performance than in the
“
”position.
. When the dial is placed in the “”
or “”position, the air conditioner
compressor operates automatically re-
gardless of the position of the air
conditioner button to defog the wind-
shield quickly.

mends using the AUTO position.
Other positions: The fan speed can be
adjusted in 25 steps. NOTE
With the fan speed control dial in the
AUTO position and the air flow control
dial in the
“
”, “”,or “”position,
the fan does not operate during engine
warm-up until the engine coolant tem-
perature exceeds approx. 122 8F (50 8C).
& Temperature control dial
This dial is used to set the desired interior
temperature. With the dial set to your
desired temperature, the system automa-
tically adjusts the temperature of air
supplied from the outlets such that the
desired temperature is achieved andmaintained.
If the dial is turned fully counterclockwise,
the system gives maximum cooling per- formance. If the dial is turned fully clock-
wise, the system gives maximum heatingperformance. &
Air flow control dial
This dial has the following six positions.
The outlets from which air is supplied in
each position are as follows: AUTO: The air flow control is adjusted
