the major modes. These intermediate positions are iden-
tified by the small dots and give an even blend of both
modes.

Panel

Outside air flows through the outlets located in the
instrument panel. These outlets can be adjusted to
direct the airflow.

Bi-Level

Air flows through the outlets located in the instru-
ment panel and those located on the floor.

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.

Heat

Outside air flows primarily through the floor out-
lets located under the instrument panel.

Mix

Outside air flows in equal proportions through the
floor and defroster outlets.

Defrost

Outside air is primarily directed to the windshield
through the defroster outlets located at the base of
the windshield and side window demist outlets.

NOTE:

The air conditioning compressor operates in

both Mix and Defrost or a blend of these modes, even if
the A/C button has not been pressed. This dehumidifies
the air to help dry the windshield.

Blower Control

The rotary knob on the left of the con-
trol panel is the blower control. Turn the
knob clockwise to one of the four posi-
tions to obtain the blower speed you
desire. To turn the blower off, turn the
knob to the far left position.
