Fan Button
The button below the display is used to manually
select the force of air you want. The display will show
the fan speed. Fan control is no longer automatic, but
the system remains in auto temperature control.
If the airflow seems very low when the fan knob is
turned to the highest setting regardless of the mode
setting, your passenger compartment air filter (if
equipped) may need to be replaced. See “Maintenance
Schedule” in the Index.
A/C Button
Press the A/C button to turn compressor on/off. AUTO
will be extinguished, but system will maintain auto air
delivery and auto blower.
Mode Button
The MODE button is used to control the direction of
airflow when the system is not in AUTO. The first press
will display the current airflow direction. Repeated
pressing will cycle through the following air flow
directions shown in the display.
UPPER: This setting directs air through the
instrument panel outlets.
BI - LEV: This directs air two ways. Half of the air
is directed through the instrument panel outlets. Most of
the remaining air is directed through the floor ducts and
a little to the defrost and side window vents.
DEFOG: This setting allows half of the air to go
to the floor ducts and half to the defrost and side
window vents. The air conditioning compressor will run
automatically in this setting unless the outside
temperature is below 40
_F (4.5_C).
LOWER: This setting sends most of the air
through the ducts near the floor. The rest comes out of
the defrost and side window vents.
FRONT DEFROST BUTTON: This setting
directs most of the air through the defrost and side
window vents. Some of the air goes to the floor ducts.
The air conditioning compressor will run automatically
in this setting unless the outside temperature is below

RECIRC BUTTON: This setting recirculates the
air inside of your vehicle. This setting is not available in
defog or defrost mode.
