Win ter Operation
When operating the system during the winter months,
make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the
wind shield , is free of ice, slush, snow, or other obstru c-
tions.
Summer Operation
Air cond itioned vehicles must be protected with a high
quality antifreeze coolant during summer to provid e
prop er corrosion protection and to raise the boiling point
of the coolant for protection against overheating. A 50 %
concentration is recom mend ed. Refer to Fluids and
Genu ine Parts in Section 7 for the prop er coolant typ e.
Vacation Storage
Anytim e you store you r vehicle, or keep it out of service 4
(i.e. vacation) for two weeks or more, run the air cond i-
tioning system at idle for abou t five minu tes in the fresh
air and high blow er setting. This will insu re adequ ate
system lubrication to minim ize the possibility of com-
pressor damage when the system is started again.
When using the air cond itioner in extrem ely heavy traffic
in hot weather especially when tow ing a trailer, addi-
tional engine cooling may be requ ired . If this situ ation is
encou ntered , operate the transm ission in a lower gear to
increase engine RPM, coolant flow and fan speed . When
stop ped in heavy traffic, it may be necessary to shift into
N (Neutral) and depress the accelerator slightly for fast
idle operation to increase coolant flow and fan speed .
