The operator can override the AUTO mode setting to

change airflow distribution by rotating the Mode Control

knob (on the right) to one of the following positions.
• Panel

Air is directed through the outlets in the instru-

ment panel. These outlets can be adjusted to direct

airflow.
NOTE:

The center instrument panel outlets can be aimed

so that they are directed toward the rear seat passengers

for maximum airflow to the rear.
• Bi-Level

Air is directed through the panel and floor outlets.
NOTE:

For all settings, except full cold or full hot,

there is a difference in temperature between the upper

and lower outlets. The warmer air flows to the floor

outlets. This feature gives improved comfort during

sunny but cool conditions.

• Floor

Air is directed through the floor outlets with a

small amount flowing through the defrost and

side window demist outlets.
• 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 to 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 blower and temperature settings for best wind-

shield and side window defrosting.
