selected. This allows the front occupants to control the
volume of air circulated in the vehicle and cancel the
Auto mode.

The operator can also select the direction of the airflow
by selecting one of the following positions.

Panel Mode

Air comes from the outlets in the instrument panel.
Each of these outlets can be individually adjusted to

direct the flow of air. The air vanes of the center outlets
and outboard outlets can be rotated to regulate or shut off
the airflow from these outlets.

Bi-Level Mode

Air comes from the instrument panel outlets, floor
outlets and defrost outlets.

NOTE:

In many temperature positions, the BI-LEVEL

mode is designed to provide cooler air out of the panel
outlets and warmer air from the floor outlets.

Floor Mode

Air comes from the floor outlets. A slight amount of
air is directed through the defrost and side window

demister outlets.

Mix Mode

Air comes from the floor, defrost and side window
demist outlets. This mode works best in cold or
snowy conditions. It allows you to stay comfortable

while keeping the windshield clear.

Defrost Mode

Air comes from the windshield and side window
demist outlets. Use Defrost mode with maximum

blower and temperature settings for best windshield and
side window defrosting.

NOTE:

While operating in the other modes, the system

will not automatically sense the presence of fog, mist or
ice on the windshield. Defrost mode must be manually
selected to clear the windshield and side glass.
