will automatically determine the fan speed, airflow location and whether
outside or recirculated air is required.
When in AUTO and weather conditions require heat, the DATC directs
the majority of the airflow to the floor area. The system will allow some
airflow out the defroster and demister outlets and outer instrument
panel registers in order to reduce window fogging. Additionally, if the
engine is not warm enough to provide heat, the fan will operate at a low
speed and the airflow will be directed to the windshield or to the floor.

minutes or less, the fan speed will start to increase and the airflow
location will change to the floor area.
When in AUTO mode, the DATC system automatically controls the air
conditioning operation, the fan speed, the airflow direction and
determines whether outside or recirculated air is required. Manual
control of the A/C, air recirculation and fan speed are available in auto
mode.
If unusual conditions exist (i.e.-window fogging, etc.), the manual
override controls allow you to select airflow locations as necessary. To
return to full automatic control, press the AUTO control.
