NOTE: There are step s that you can take to slow down

is on, turn it off. The air cond itioning system adds heat to
the engine cooling system and turning off the A/ C
rem oves this heat. You can also turn the Temperatu re
control to maxim um heat, the Mod e control to floor, and
the fan control to High. This allow s the heater core to act
as a supplement to the rad iator and aid s in rem oving heat
from the engine cooling system .
