To use the heating and cooling
system in automatic mode, set the
system as follows.

Set the fan control dial to AUTO.

Set the mode control dial to AUTO.

Turn the temperature control dial
to the desired temperature.

Select fresh air mode by pressing
the recirculation button. The
indicator in the switch should be
off.

Turn on the A/C by pressing the
button.

Pressing the A/C button turns the
air conditioning ON and OFF. The
indicator in the button comes on
when the A/C is ON.

When you turn the A/C off, the
system cannot regulate the inside
temperature if you set the dial below
the outside air temperature.
With A/C on, use the temperature
control dial to adjust the temperature
of the air flow to a comfortable
setting.

Air conditioning also removes mois-
ture from the air as it operates. You
can use it to defog the windows
quickly in cool or damp weather.
Used in combination with the heater,
it also makes the interior warm and
dry.

To heat or cool the interior faster,
select recirculation mode, and set
the temperature control dial to the
upper or lower limit. The system
runs on full cooling or heating only.
It does not regulate the interior

temperature. When the temperature
is set between the lower and upper
limits, the system regulates the
interior temperature to the set value.

Turning the fan control dial to OFF
shuts the heating and cooling system
completely off. Keep the system
completely off only for short periods.
To keep stale air and mustiness from
collecting, you should have the fan
running at all times.

You can manually set the system
controls for ventilation, air
conditioning, heating, airflow
direction, and fan speed in various
combinations.
