select heating or ventilation and determine
where the air will be directed. The Temperature
knob setting determines the temperature of the
air that flows into the vehicle.
To turn your Heater system on, select any
position except OFF. This will turn the fan ON
and allow air flow into the vehicle. Select OFF to
turn your Heater off. This will turn the fan off
and stop outside air from coming into the
vehicle.
