Be careful not to cover the interior tem-
perature sensor (10) located between the
steering wheel and the climate control
panel, or the solar sensor (11) located at
the top of the central part of the dash-
board. These sensors are used by the
automatic system to regulate temperature.
You can manually control the climate con-
trol system. Set the selectors to the
desired positions.
NOTE:
If you need maximum defrosting:
• push the defrost switch (5) to turn on the
defroster (the air conditioning system will

come on and the fresh air position (b)
will be selected automatically),
• set the blower speed selector to HIGH,
• adjust the temperature selector to the
"HI" indication on the display, and
• adjust the side outlets so the air blows
on the side windows.
If you do not use the air conditioner for a
long period, such as during winter, it may
not give the best performance when you
start using it again. To help maintain opti-
mum performance and durability of your air
conditioner, it needs to be run periodically.
Operate the air conditioner at least once a
month for one minute with the engine
idling. This circulates the refrigerant and oil
and helps protect the internal components.
If your air conditioner is equipped with air
filters, clean or replace them as specified
in the "Maintenance Schedule" in the
64MS091
section.
NOTE:
Your vehicle uses the air conditioning
refrigerant HFC-134a, commonly called
"R-134a". R-134a replaced R-12 around
1993 for automotive applications. Other
refrigerants are available, including recy-
cled R-12, but only R-134a should be used
in your vehicle.
