Operating tips (for automatic air conditioner)

When the engine coolant temperature and outside air temperature are low, the air flow from the foot outlets may not operate for a maximum of 150 seconds. However, this is not a malfunction. After the coolant temperature warms up, the air flow from the foot outlets will operate normally.

The sensors 1 and 2 , located on the instrument panel, help maintain a constant temperature. Do not put anything on or around the sensors.
