Driving in stop-and-go traffic may reduce
the effectiveness of the air conditioning
system.
Using the air conditioning system when
driving up long hills or in heavy traffic
can cause engine overheating. If engine
coolant temperature warning c ontrol
indicator W illuminates in instrument
cluster, turn off air conditioning and allow
engine to idle for a few minutes
(see page 23).
When the air cond itioning is on, fuel
consumption increases. Switch off the
system whenever it is not required.
