selected before the defroster was acti-
vated.
4-6. Operating Tips for Heaterand Air Conditioner■
Cleaning Ventilator Grille1) Front ventilator inlet grille
2) CondenserAlways keep the front ventilator inlet grille
free of snow, leaves, or other obstructions
to ensure efficient heating and defrosting.
Since the condenser is located in front of
the radiator, this area should be kept
clean because cooling performance is
impaired by any accumulation of insects and leaves on the condenser.
■
Efficient Cooling after
Parking in Direct Sunlight
After parking in direct sunlight, drive with
the windows open for a few minutes to
allow outside air to circulate into the
heated interior. This results in quicker
cooling by the air conditioner. Keep the
windows closed during the operation of
the air conditioner for maximum cooling
efficiency.■
Lubrication Oil Circulation in
the Refrigerant Circuit
Operate the air conditioner compressor at
a low engine speed (at idle or low driving
speeds) a few minutes each month during
the off-season to circulate its oil.■
Checking Air Conditioning
System before Summer
Seaso n
Check the air conditioner unit for refrig-
erant leaks, hose conditions, and proper
operation each spring. Have the air condi-
tioning system checked by your SUBARU
dealer.
