Turning on the air conditioner
To cool your vehicle quickly in warm weather:
1. Press one of the function selector buttons (typically Panel, but
Panel/Floor, Floor or Mix can be selected).
2. Turn the temperature control knob to COOL.
3. Press the A/C button. The indicator light on the A/C button
will illuminate.
4. The air intake selector button may be in the outside air mode
or the recirculated air mode. The outside air mode is
recommended for best A/C performance when the vehicle
interior is very warm. As interior air comfort is reached, you
may decide to switch to the recirculated air mode.
5. Turn the fan speed knob to the position of your choice.
6. If your vehicle is equipped with the rear passenger compartment
air conditioning unit, it will be on when the front A/C is on
and the rear climate control lever is set to REAR, 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Refer to the previous section for an explanation of the
heating system.
7. Adjust your instrument panel registers.
8. If the inside of your vehicle is very warm, you may want to
drive for a few minutes with the windows down and the air
conditioner on. This forces most of the hot, stale air out of the
vehicle and allows the air conditioner to cool down the
interior more quickly.
The air conditioner may be used to cool the outside air being
drawn into your vehicle, but using recirculated air is more
economical and cools your vehicle more quickly.
