Air Speed
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Cadillac CTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The blower motor forces air to circulate within the vehicles interior. The vehicle operator determines the blower motors speed by placing the blower knob dial in a desired speed position or by selecting automatic operation. In manual operation, the blower has 6 speed selections. The HVAC control module may alter the blower motor speed due to compensating factors. In automatic operation, the HVAC control module will determine what blower speed is necessary in order to achieve or maintain a desired temperature. In manual and automatic operation, the blower speed temporarily reduces speed during transition between outlet modes.
