Climate Controls The display will show to indicate manual fan operation. To return to automatic fan operation, press AUTOMATIC. Manual override controls HI ˚F AUTO OFF A/C MAX TEMP AUTOMATIC OFF REAR 1 A/C 2 3 4 LO The override controls allow you to: • manually control where the airflow is directed • manually control the air conditioning operation • manually select between outside or recirculated air during air conditioning operation The air conditioning can operate in all modes except OFF. It will also operate only when required when AUTOMATIC has been selected. However, the air conditioning will only function if the outside temperature is about 4°C (40°F) or higher. Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the air during operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you have stopped the vehicle. • OFF-Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate. For short periods of time only, use this mode to reduce undesirable odors from entering the vehicle. • (Floor and defrost) - Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster ducts and the front and rear floor ducts. Heating and air conditioning capabilities are provided in this mode. For added customer comfort, when the temperature control knob is anywhere in between the full hot and full cold positions, the air distributed through the front and rear floor ducts will be slightly warmer than the air sent to the windshield defroster ducts. 66
