Air Flow Control
This is used to direct the flow of air. Air can be
directed to the floor, dashboard outlets, or
windshield. Four symbols are used to repre-
sent Face, Bi-Level, Floor and Floor-Defrost
position.
Face-Level
When selecting the "Face" mode, the indica-
tor light will come on, causing air to be dis-
charged through the face level vents.
Bi-Level
When selecting the "Bi-Level" mode, the indi-
cator light will come on and the air will be
discharged through the face vents and the
floor vents. This makes it possible to have
cooler air from the dashboard vents and
warmer air from the floor outlets at the same
time.
Floor-Level
When selecting the "Floor-Level" mode, the
indicator light will come on and the air will be
discharged through the floor vents.
Floor-Defrost Level
When selecting the "Floor-Defrost" mode, the
indicator light will come on and the air will be
discharged through the windshield defrost
vents and the floor vents.

When the "Defrost" button is pressed, the
"Fresh" mode will be automatically selected
and the air will be discharged through the
windshield defrost vents. To assist in defrost-
ing, the air conditioning will operate if ambient
temperature is higher than 38.3°F(3.5°C) and
automatically turns off if the ambient tempera-
ture drops below 38.3°F(3.5°C).

Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot when you first
get in, open the windows for a few minutes
to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning
system, keep all windows closed to keep
hot air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic,
shift to a lower gear. This increases engine
speed, which in turn increases the speed
of the air conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air conditioning
off to avoid the possibility of the engine

overheating.
o During winter months or in periods when
the air conditioning is not used regularly,
run the air conditioning once every month
for a few minutes. This will help circulate
the lubricants and keep your system in
peak operating condition.
