Climate Control Functions
A/C (Air Conditioning)
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the
operator to manually activate or deactivate the
air conditioning system. When the air condi-
tioning system is turned on, cool dehumidified
air will flow through the outlets into the cabin.
For improved fuel economy, press the A/C
button to turn off the air conditioning and manu-
ally adjust the blower and airflow mode settings.
Also, make sure to select only Panel, Bi-Level, or
Floor modes.
NOTE:
For Manual Climate Controls, if the system is
in Mix, Floor or Defrost Mode, the A/C can be
turned off, but the A/C system shall remain
active to prevent fogging of the windows.
If fog or mist appears on the windshield or
side glass, select Defrost mode, and increase
blower speed if needed.
If your air conditioning performance seems
lower than expected, check the front of the
A/C condenser (located in front of the radi-
ator), for an accumulation of dirt or insects.
Clean with a gentle water spray from the front
of the radiator and through the condenser.
Rear Blower Control Knob
The rear blower control can be manually set to off, or any fixed blower speed by rotating the Blower Control Knob in the rear
of the vehicle. This allows the rear seat occupants to control the volume of air circulated in the rear of the vehicle.
When rear controls are locked by the front system, the Rear Lock symbol on the temperature knob is illuminated and any
rear overhead adjustments are ignored.
Rear AUTO Setting
Turn the blower knob to the AUTO setting. The rear AUTO setting is displayed in the control head when REAR AUTO is on. This
feature automatically controls the rear interior cabin temperature by adjusting airflow distribution and amount. Changing the
blower knob to any other blower setting will cause the rear system to switch to manual mode. Refer to "Automatic Operation"
within this section for more information.
Rear Climate Control/Blower Off
To turn the Rear Climate Controls off, turn the Blower Control knob to the O (off) position.
