Air Conditioning
#
(Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn the air
conditioning (A/C) compressor on and off. The
snowflake symbol will appear on the display when the
A/C is on.
Pressing this button when the outside temperature is
too cool for air conditioning to be effective will make the
snowflake symbol flash three times and then turn off
to let you know that the air conditioning mode is
not available. If the air conditioning is on and the outside
temperature drops below a temperature which is too
cool for air conditioning to be effective, the snowflake
symbol will turn off to let you know that the air
conditioning mode has been canceled.
^ (Air Conditioning Off): On some vehicles, when
you turn the air conditioning off, this symbol will appear
on the display. If your vehicle does not have this
symbol, the snowflake symbol will turn off to let you
know the air conditioning is off.
When air conditioning is selected or in AUTO mode, the
system will run the air conditioning automatically to cool
and dehumidify the air entering the vehicle. If you select
A/C off while in front defrost, defog or recirculation, the
A/C snowflake symbol will turn off, but the A/C
compressor will still run to help prevent fogging.
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for
your vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows
closed for the air conditioner to work its best.
On cool, but sunny days while using manual operation
of the automatic system, use bi-level to deliver warm
air to the floor and cooler air to the instrument
panel outlets. To warm or cool the air delivered, turn the
temperature knob to the desired setting.
In AUTO mode the system will cool and dehumidify the
air inside the vehicle. Also while in AUTO mode, the
system will maximize its performance by using
recirculation as necessary.
Heating
On cold days when using manual operation of the
automatic system, choose floor mode to deliver air to
the floor outlets. To warm or cool the air delivered, turn
the temperature knob to the desired setting.
If you want to use the automatic mode, press AUTO and
adjust the temperature by turning the temperature knob.
The heater works best if you keep the windows closed
while using it.
