REMARK B: Progressive blower speed increase must occur between LO, M1, M2 and HI | |||||||||
REMARK C: Listen for the reduction of air noise. | |||||||||
REMARK D: Inspect the temperature level for full travel (Hot or Cold). | |||||||||
REMARK E: Inspect for air flow at the side window defogger outlets | |||||||||
REMARK F: At room temperature the air from the center A/C outlets should feel cold with the blower speed on HIGH. | |||||||||
REMARK G: The temperature from the vent outlets should be the same as the temperature outside of the vehicle. | |||||||||
REMARK H: Temperature from the defroster outlets should be above the temperature outside the vehicle. | |||||||||
