Heating and Cooling
If the interior is very warm from
being parked in the sun, you can cool
it down more rapidly by setting up
the controls this way:
1. Start the engine.
2. Turn on the A/C by pressing the
button. Make sure the tempera-
ture control lever is all the way to
the left.
3. Set the fan to maximum speed.
4. Open the windows partially. Select
and Fresh Air mode.
When the interior has cooled down
to a more comfortable temperature,
close the windows and set the
controls as described for normal
cooling.
Air conditioning places an extra load
on the engine. Watch the engine
coolant temperature gauge (see page
59 ) when driving in stop-and-go
traffic or climbing a long, steep hill.
If it moves near the red zone, turn
off the A / C until the gauge reads
normally.
To Heat
To warm the interior:

moisture from the air. When used in

2. Turn on the air conditioning.
3. Select and Fresh Air mode.
4. Adjust the temperature control
lever so the mixture of heated and
cooled air feels comfortable.

conditions whenever the outside
temperature is above 32° F (0°C).
