Heater and Air Conditioning Control
System (If Equipped)
Fan Knob
The knob on the le.ft side of the heating system control
panel controls the fan speed. The knob has four speed
positions. To increase airflow, move the knob toward
HI. To decrease airflow, move it toward LO. To turn the
fan off, move the knob to OFF. If you have the air
conditioner on, moving the fan knob to OFF also turns
off the A/C compressor.
In OFF, while driving, ram airflow will vent to the floor
outlets. The mode knob will not redirect ram airflow to
other selected outlet positions. This is normal operation
for the OFF position.
Temperature Knob
The middle knob on the control panel lets you select the
relative temperature of the air flowing into the passenger
area of your vehicle. This knob will allow you to adjust
the relative air temperature independently of the function
knob setting. Move the knob clockwise toward the red
area for warmer air. Move the knob counterclockwise
toward the blue area for cooler air.
Mode Knob
The right knob on the control panel allows you to
choose the direction of air delivery. The control knob
can be placed in any position between two mode settings
to blend the flow of air.
