WTF??RPMS go up and down with the heater.....

Hey everybody, I am trying to get some information about whats going on with my car, its 98 se 5speed 95K miles. Ok, so the car works and idles perfect but as soon as I turn the heat on the RPM go up to 800 and some times stay there, some times go back to normal(650), and when I turn th heat off the RPM go to about 300-400 and then back to 650...?!?!Thanks in advance

yeah man dont worry about it, its normal
it should usualy stay up if youve got it turned on, untill you turn it off or put it on manual.
with mine, set to auto, it will raise to 8-900 or something, but if you hit up or down on the fan speed to turn it on, instead of hitting auto, it wont raise the RPMs. ..somehting like that ^^ someone correct me
you can try it out and see how it works for you
