4-8 Climate control
Automatic climate control
system (if equipped)
Although this climate control system can
be used as a full-automatic climate control
system, it can also, if desired, be used as
a semi-automatic climate control system.
When it is used as a full-automatic climate
control system, the outlet air temperature,
fan speed, air flow distribution, air inlet
control, and air conditioner compressor
operation are all automatically controlled
to maintain a constant, comfortable tem-
perature inside the vehicle.
NOTE
. Operate the automatic climate con-
trol system when the engine is running.
. When the engine coolant is cold, the
blower does not run.
. In the “AUTO” mode, when the air
temperature in the passenger compart-
ment is sufficiently cool, the air condi-
tioner compressor does not operate.
For efficient defogging or dehumidify-
ing in cold weather, press the “A/C”
button to operate the air conditioner
compressor.
. Even when cooling is not necessary,
setting the temperature mu ch lower
than the current outlet air temperature
turns on the air conditioner compres-
sor automatically and the “A/C” indi-
cator light on the control panel comes
on.

to AUTO mode can be manually adjusted
as desired.

of 65 to 858F (20 to 308C).
