Air conditioning places an extra load
on the engine. Watch the engine
coolant temperature gauge (see page

). If it moves near the red mark,

turn off the A/C until the gauge
reads normally.

The flow-through ventilation system
draws in outside air, circulates it
through the interior, then exhausts it
through vents near the rear side
panels.

The heater uses engine coolant to
warm the air. If the engine is cold, it
will be several minutes before you
feel warm air coming from the
system.
