The following settings can be selected as
needed: AUTO, , ECON and BI-LEV.
AUTO – All Season Setting
In cold weather, heated air will flow from
outlets 1, 2 and 5. In warm weather
cooled air will flow from outlets 3 and 4.
See illustration on page 66.
Defrosting and defogging
windshield and side
windows
Use this setting to defrost or defog
windows. Maximum air volume is
directed towards the windshield.
ECON – This setting is recommended
only when fuel economy is desired and it
is not necessary to cool the interior of the
vehicle. The air conditioner compressor
is switched off. Only outside air or heated
air will flow into the vehicle by the blower.
BI-LEV – Heated or cold air flows from
outlets 3, 4 and 5. A small amount of air
will flow from outlets 1 and 2.
LO/HI – At all settings, the blower speed
can be decreased by pushing the "LO"
button, or increased by pushing the "HI"
button. The additional function "LO/HI"
will be canceled when the selected
setting button is pressed again or when a
different button is pressed.
OUTSIDE TEMP – The outside air
temperature is displayed when the
OUTSIDE TEMP button is pushed. The
indicator lamp just to the left of the button
will be lit. Since the engine can become
very warm when the vehicle is at a
standstill or when driving at low speeds,
the outside temperature display may be
too high.
WARNING
The outside temperature display is no
indicator for possible ice on the road.
Ice can form or remain even at
temperatures above freezing.
OFF – when the OFF button is pushed,
the entire system is switched off, inclu-
ding outside fresh air circulation. This
feature prevents dust, exhaust fumes,
odors etc. from entering the vehicle. Turn
the system OFF briefly and only as
necessary.
