NOTE:
It is not necessary to move thetemperature settings for cold or
hot vehicles. The system auto-
matically adjusts the tempera-
ture, mode and fan speed to pro-
vide comfort as quickly as
possible.
The temperature can be dis- played in English or Metric units
by selecting the “Display Units
of Measure in” customer-
programmable feature. Refer to
the “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC) — Customer-
Programmable Features” in this
Section.
To provide you with maximum com-
fort in the automatic mode, during
cold start-ups, the blower fan will re-
main on low until the engine warms
up. The fan will engage immediately
if the Defrost mode is selected, or by
changing the front blower knob set-
ting Rear Mode Control
Headliner Mode
Air comes from the outlets in
the headliner. Each of these
outlets can be individually adjusted to
direct the flow of air. Moving the air
vanes of the outlets to one side will
shut off the airflow.
Bi-Level Mode
Air comes from both the head-
liner outlets and the floor
outlets.
NOTE: In many temperature po-
sitions, the Bi-Level mode is de-
signed to provide cooler air out of
the headliner outlets and warmer
air from the floor outlets.
Floor Mode Air comes from the floor out-
lets.
Manual Operation
This system offers a full complement
of manual override features. The AUTO symbol in the front ATC dis-
play will be turned off when the sys-
tem is being used in the manual mode.
NOTE: Each of these features op-
erate independently from each
other. If any one feature is con-
trolled manually, the temperature
doors will continue to operate au-
tomatically.
Blower Control
There are seven
fixed blower
speeds. Use the
outer dial control
to regulate the
amount of air
forced through the
system in any mode you select. The
blower speed increases as you move
the control clockwise and decreases
when you move the control
counter-clockwise.
The blower fan speed can be set to any
fixed speed by adjusting the blower
control outer dial. The fan will now218
Floor ModeAir comes from the floor out-
lets.
SUMMER OPERATION
The engine cooling system in air con-
ditioned vehicles must be protected
with a high-quality antifreeze coolant
to provide proper corrosion protection
and to protect against engine over-
heating. A solution of 50% ethylene
glycol antifreeze coolant and 50%
water is recommended. Refer to
“Maintenance Procedures” in “Main-
taining Your Vehicle” for proper cool-
ant selection.
WINTER OPERATION
To ensure the best possible heater and
defroster performance, make sure the
engine cooling system is functioning
properly and the proper amount,
type, and concentration of coolant is
used. Refer to “Maintenance Proce-
dures” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle”
for proper coolant selection. Use of
the air Recirculation mode during
Winter months is not recommended,
because it may cause window fogging. VACATION/STORAGE
Before you store your vehicle, or keep
it out of service (i.e., vacation) for two
weeks or more, run the air condition-
ing system at idle for about five min-
utes, in fresh air with the blower set-
ting on high. This will ensure
adequate system lubrication to mini-
mize the possibility of compressor
damage when the system is started
again.
WINDOW FOGGING
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the
inside in mild, rainy and/or humid
weather. To clear the windows, select
Defrost or Mix mode and increase the
front blower speed. Do not use the
Recirculation mode without A/C for
long periods, as fogging may occur.
OUTSIDE AIR INTAKE
Make sure the air intake, located di-
rectly in front of the windshield, is
free of obstructions such as leaves.
Leaves collected in the air intake may
reduce airflow, and if they enter the
plenum they could plug the water
drains. In Winter months make sure
the air intake is clear of ice, slush and
snow.
OPERATING TIPS
A/C AIR FILTER
On vehicles equipped with Automatic
Temperature Control (ATC), the cli-
mate control system filters out dust
and pollen from the air. Refer to “Air
Conditioning” in “Maintaining Your
Vehicle” for filter replacement
instructions.222
