The 110 (and 90), as far as I know, right from the start to current, are
like most if not all current cars - continuous flow through the heater
core, and rely on air flaps to divert air around the matrix when you want
cold - which is part of the reason why it is never really cold. (Another
part of the reason is that it is right over/behind the exhaust manifold on
almost all engines ever fitted to this vehicle.)
