Do not to cover the sensor located on the top of the
instrument panel near the windshield. This sensor
regulates air temperature based on the intensity of
the sun.
Also do not cover the sensor grille on the lower right
side of the climate control faceplate, as this regulates
the inside temperature.
To avoid blowing cold air at engine start-up in cold
weather, the system delays turning on the fan until
warm air is available. The length of delay depends
on the engine coolant temperature. Turning the fan
knob overrides this delay and changes the fan to
the selected speed.
Manual Operation
9 (Off): Select this position on the fan knob to turn off
the entire climate control system. Outside air still
enters the vehicle. The airflow direction and temperature
can be adjusted.
x / w Temperature Control: Press the arrows to
increase or decrease the temperature inside the vehicle.
9 (Fan Control): Turn clockwise or counterclockwise
to increase or decrease the fan speed.
Air Delivery Mode Control: Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to change the direction of the airflow
in the vehicle.
Select from the following:
H (Vent): Air is directed to the instrument panel
outlets.
) (Bi-Level): Air is divided between the instrument
panel outlets and the floor outlets.
6 (Floor): Air is directed to the floor outlets with some
air directed to the side window outlets.
- (Defog): This mode clears the windows of fog or
moisture. Air is directed to the floor and windshield
outlets.
0 (Defrost): This mode clears the windows of fog or
frost more quickly. The system automatically controls
the fan speed if defrost is selected from the AUTO mode.
If the outside temperature is 40°F (4°C) or warmer, the
air conditioning compressor automatically runs to help
dehumidify the air and dry the windshield. The air
conditioning indicator light blinks three times if the
compressor is turned off while in this mode.
# (Air Conditioning): Press turn the air conditioning
on and off. An indicator light turns on to show the air
conditioning is on.
When air conditioning is selected or is in AUTO mode, the
system runs the air conditioning automatically to cool and
dehumidify the air entering the vehicle.
