Control Operation

Control Operation - Manual A/C:

FAN CONTROL LEVER
This lever turns the fan ON and OFF, and controls fan speed.

MODE SWITCHES
These switches allow you to select the outlet air flow.
When the MODE switch is moved to "DEF" or "F/D", the push control amplifier sets the intake door to "FRE". The compressor turns on when the MODE switch is moved to "DEF".

TEMPERATURE CONTROL LEVER
This lever allows you to adjust the temperature of the outlet air.

RECIRC SWITCH
- OFF position: Outside air is drawn into the passenger compartment when this switch is OFF.
- ON position: Interior air is recirculated inside the vehicle.
- RECIRC is canceled when DEF or F/D are selected. RECIRC resumes when another mode is chosen.

AIR CONDITIONER SWITCH
Start the engine, move the fan control lever to the desired (1 to 4) position and push the air conditioner switch to turn ON the air conditioner. The indicator light will come on when the air conditioner is ON. To stop the air conditioner, push the switch again to return it to the original position.

The air conditioner cooling function operates only when the engine is running.

FRESH VENT
When the fresh vent lever is in the "ON" position, a small amount of air flows directly from the evaporator outlet to the vent (face) duct, bypassing the heater unit. This provides a small amount of cool air in the occupant head/face area even though warm air may be discharging through the foot or defroster outlets.
