Automatic climate control
system
NOTE
. Operate the automatic climate con-
trol system when the engine is running.
. The blower fan rotates at a low
speed when the engine coolant tem-
perature is low.
For efficient defogging or dehumidify-
ing in cold weather, press the “A/C”
button.
. Even when cooling is not necessary,
setting the te mperature much 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.
. Seven-seater models each have a
rear air conditioner. The fan speed of
the rear ai r conditioner can be ad-
justed, but other adjustments (outlet
air temperature, air distribution, etc.)
are not possible for the rear air condi-
tioner. For details, refer to “Rear air
conditioner” in this section.
The automatic climate c ontr ol sys tem
automatically controls outlet air tempera-
ture, fan speed, air flow distribution air-
inlet control, and air conditioner compres-
sor operation. It activates when the
“AUTO” button is pressed, and is used to
maintain a constant, comfortable climate
within the passenger compartment.
The temperature can be set within a range
of 65 to 858F (18 to 328C).
