Air Conditioning - Cadillac 1996 Eldorado Owner's Manual

Air Conditioning
Heating
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed
for the air conditioner to work its best.
With the ECC system, press the AUTOECON button
to assist in cooling air and in maintaining proper airflow.
Adjust the temperature to a comfortable setting by
pressing the blue button to cool your vehicle and
pressing the red button to warm your vehicle. Press the
fan button arrows up or down to adjust the fan speed.
If you have the dual-zone system, press the AC button
to turn the system on and then select the proper MODE
to direct airflow. The system will cool and dehumidify
the air inside the vehicle. Also while in the AUTO
mode, the system will use recirculation as necessary to
cool the air. You may also need to adjust the interior
temperature. Turn the TEMP knob clockwise to increase
the temperature and counterclockwise to decrease
temperature. Adjust the fan speed as needed.
When the air conditioner is on, you may sometimes
notice slight changes in your vehicle's engine speed
and power. This is normal because. the system is
designed to cycle the compressor on and off to keep the
desired temperature.
With the ECC system, press the AUTOECON button
to direct airflow out of the floor outlets and to help save
fuel. Adjust the temperature, if necessary, by pressing
the blue button to decrease temperature and pressing the
red button to increase temperature. Also remember to
adjust the fan speed by pressing the up or down arrow.
If you have the dual-zone system, press the MODE
button to select heater. This will direct airflow out of the
floor outlets. Adjust the interior temperature to your
comfort level by turning the TEMP knob clockwise to
increase temperature and counterclockwise to decrease
temperature. If the fan speed needs adjusting, press the
up or down arrow.
With each system, outside air will be brought in and
sent through the floor outlets. The heater works best
if you keep your windows closed while using it.
