Comfort Controls
Air Conditioning with Electronic Controls
With this system, you can control the heating, cooling
and ventilation in your vehicle. The system works best if
you keep your windows closed while using it.
Fan Knob
The left knob regulates the amount of air coming
into the vehicle. To turn the fan off, turn the knob
to OFF. The fan must be on to run the air
conditioning compressor.
If the airflow seems very low when the fan knob is turned
to the highest setting, regardless of the mode setting, your
passenger compartment air filter (if equipped) may need to
be replaced. See “Maintenance Schedule” and “Passenger
Compartment Air Filter” in the Index.
Temperature Knob
The right knob changes the temperature of the air
coming through the system. Turn this knob clockwise
(toward red) for warmer air. Turn it counterclockwise
(toward blue) for cooler air.
Mode Push Buttons
The upper row of push buttons control the direction of
airflow. Each button has an indicator which will glow
when the button is pressed.
UPPER: This setting directs air through the
instrument panel outlets.
BI

LEVEL: This setting directs air two ways. Half
of the air is directed through the instrument panel outlets.
Most of the remaining air is directed through the floor
ducts and a little to the defrost and side window vents.
