Automatic operation
Cooling and/or dehumidified heating (AUTO)
This mode may be used all year round as the system automatically works to keep a constant temperature. Air flow distribution and fan speed are also controlled automatically.
1. Push the AUTO button on. (The indicator on the button will illuminate and AUTO will be displayed.) 2. Turn the temperature control dial to the left or right to set the desired temperature.
- Adjust the temperature display to about 75°F (24°C) for normal operation.
- The temperature of the passenger compartment will be maintained automatically. Air flow distribution and fan speed are also controlled automatically.
- A visible mist may be seen coming from the vents in hot, humid conditions as the air is cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a malfunction.
3. You can individually set drivers and front passengers side temperature using each temperature control dial. When the DUAL button or passengers side temperature dial is turned, the DUAL indicator will come on.
To turn off the passengers side temperature control, push the DUAL button.
Heating (A/C OFF)
The air conditioner does not activate. When you need to heat only, use this mode.
1. Push the A/C button. (A/C OFF will be displayed and A/C indicator will turn off.) 2. Turn the temperature control dial to set the desired temperature.
- The temperature of the passenger compartment will be maintained automatically. Air flow distribution and fan speed are also controlled automatically.
- Do not set the temperature lower than the outside air temperature. Otherwise the system may not work properly.
- Not recommended if windows fog up.
Dehumidified defrosting or defogging
1. Push the
front defroster
button on.
(The indicator light on the button will come on.) 2. Turn the temperature control dial to set the desired temperature.
- To quickly remove ice from the outside of the windows, use the fan speed control dial to set the fan speed to maximum.
- As soon as possible after the windshield is clean, push the AUTO button to return to the automatic mode.
- When the
front defroster
button is
pushed, the air conditioner will automatically
be turned on at outside temperatures above
36°F (2°C). The air recirculate mode automatically
turns off, allowing outside air to be
drawn into the passenger compartment to
further improve the defogging performance.
