318 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL Mode Control


The mode control allows you to choose from several pat- terns of air distribution as identified by the symbols.


Panel


Air is directed through the outlets in the instrument panel. These outlets can be adjusted to direct airflow.


Bi-Level


Air is directed through the panel and floor outlets.


NOTE: There is a difference in temperature between the upper and lower outlets for added comfort. The warmer air goes to the floor outlets. This feature gives improved comfort during sunny but cool conditions. Floor


Air is directed through the floor outlets and side window demist outlets with a small amount


through the defrost outlet. Mix


Air is directed through the floor, defrost and side window demist outlets. This setting works best in cold or snowy conditions that require extra heat at the windshield. This setting is good for maintaining comfort while reducing moisture on the windshield.


Defrost


Air is directed through the windshield and side window demist outlets. Use this mode with maxi- mum fan and temperature settings for best windshield and side window defrosting. Blower Control Use this control (center rotary knob) to regulate the amount of air forced through the system in any mode you select. The fan speed increases as you move the control to the right from the OFF position. NOTE: For vehicles equipped with Remote Start, the climate controls will not function during Remote Start operation if the blower control is left in the “O” (Off) position. Temperature Control Use this control (right rotary knob) to regulate the temperature of the air inside the passenger compartment. The blue area of the scale indicates cooler temperatures while the red area indicates warmer temperatures.

322 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL If your air conditioning performance seems NOTE: lower than expected, check the front of the A/C con- denser: located in front of the radiator, for an accumula- tion of dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle water spray from behind the radiator and through the condenser. Fabric front fascia protectors may reduce air flow to the condenser, reducing air conditioning performance. Recirculation Control


NOTE: Continuous use of the “Recirculation” mode may make the inside air stuffy and window fogging may occur. Extended use of this mode is not recommended. In cold or damp weather, the use of the “Recirculation” mode will cause windows to fog on the inside because of moisture buildup inside the vehicle. For maximum de- fogging, select the Outside Air position. NOTE: The “Recirculation” mode will not operate in the floor, mix or defrost modes.


Press this button to choose be- tween outside air intake or recir- culation of the air inside the ve- hicle. A light will illuminate when you are in “Recirculation” mode. Only use “Recirculation” mode to temporarily block out any outside odors, smoke, or dust and to cool the interior rapidly

324 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL Operating Tips


Window Fogging Windows will fog on the inside when the humidity inside the vehicle is high. This often occurs in mild or cool temperatures when it’s rainy or humid. In most cases turning on the air-conditioning (pressing the snowflake button) will clear the fog. Adjust the temperature control, air direction and blower speed to maintain comfort. As the temperature gets colder it may be necessary to direct air onto the windshield. Adjust the temperature control and blower speed to maintain comfort. Higher blower speeds will reduce fogging. Interior fogging on the windshield can be quickly removed by selecting the defrost mode.


Regular cleaning of the inside of the windows with a non-filming cleaning solution (vinegar and water works very well) will help prevent contaminates (cigarette smoke, perfumes, etc.) from sticking to the windows. Contaminates increase the rate of window fogging. Summer Operation Air conditioned vehicles must be protected with a high quality antifreeze coolant during summer to provide proper corrosion protection and to raise the boiling point of the coolant for protection against overheating. A 50 % concentration is recommended. Refer to Fluids and Genuine Parts in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for the proper coolant type.


When using the air conditioner in extremely heavy traffic in hot weather especially when towing a trailer, addi- tional engine cooling may be required. If this situation is encountered, operate the transmission in a lower gear to increase engine RPM, coolant flow and fan speed. When stopped in heavy traffic, it may be necessary to shift into NEUTRAL (N) and press the accelerator slightly for fast idle operation to increase coolant flow and fan speed. Winter Operation When operating the system during the winter months, make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the windshield, snow, or other obstructions.

Vacation Storage Anytime you store your vehicle or keep it out of service (i.e., vacation) for two weeks or more, run the air conditioning system at idle for about five minutes in the fresh air and high blower setting. This will ensure adequate system lubrication to minimize the possibility of compressor damage when the system is started again.
