Head cooled/Feet warmed heating
Select "BI-LEVEL" and "FRESH AIR", the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position, and the blower speed
selector to the desired blower speed posi-
tion. Unless the temperature selector is in
the fully COLD position or fully HOT posi-
tion, the air that comes out of the center
and side outlets will be cooler than the air
that comes out of the floor outlets.
Normal cooling
Set the air flow selector to "VENTILA-
TION", the temperature selector to the
desired temperature position and the
blower speed selector to the desired
blower speed position, and turn on the "A/
C" switch. Setting the blower speed selec-
tor to a higher blower speed position
increases cooling efficiency.
You can switch the air intake selector to
either "FRESH AIR" or "RECIRCULATED
AIR" as you desire. Choosing "RECIRCU-
LATED AIR" increases cooling efficiency.
Quick cooling (using recirculated air)
The control settings are the same as for
normal cooling except you select "RECIR-
CULATED AIR" and the highest blower
speed.
NOTE:
• To turn on the air conditioning system,
push in the "A/C" switch and set the
blower speed selector to a position other
than "OFF". With this "A/C" switch opera-
tion, an indicator light will come on when
the air conditioning system is on. To turn
off the air conditioning system, push the
"A/C" switch again.
• During operation of the air conditioner,
you may notice slight changes in engine
speed. These changes are normal, the
system is designed so that the compres-
sor turns on or off to maintain the
desired temperature. Less operation of
the compressor results in better fuel
economy.
NOTE:
• If you select "RECIRCULATED AIR" for
an extended period of time, the air in the
vehicle can become
Therefore, you should
select "FRESH AIR".
• If your vehicle has been left in the sun
with the windows closed, it will cool
faster if you open the windows briefly
while you operate the air conditioner with
the air intake selector at "FRESH AIR"
and the blower at high speed.
Dehumidifying
Set the air flow selector to a desired air
flow selector position, the temperature
selector to the desired temperature posi-
tion and the blower speed selector to the
desired blower speed position. Also select
"FRESH AIR" and turn on the "A/C" switch.
NOTE:
Because the air conditioner dehumidifies
the air, turning it on will help keep the win-
dows clear, even when blowing heated air

NOTE:
If you need maximum defrosting:
• set the air flow selector to "DEFROST",
• set the blower speed selector to HIGH,
• adjust the temperature selector to the
HOT end,
• turn on the "A/C" switch, and
• adjust the side outlets so the air blows
on the side windows.
Maintenance
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
