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 selects the force of air you want. 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

airflow. For each setting, set the temperature to a
comfortable setting. Each button has an indicator which
will glow when the button is pressed.

FLOOR: This setting sends most of the air

the defroster and side window vents.
DEFOG: This setting allows half of the air to go
to the floor ducts and half to the defrost and side
window vents. The air conditioning compressor will run
