The outside temperature sensor is located near the front
grille. The sensor can be affected
by
road or engine heat
dnring idling, slow driving or when the engine is first
started after a short trip. In order to ensure proper
automatic climate control operation, the outside air
temperature display may not update as quickly as
expected. This is to allow the air surrounding the outside
temperature sensor to be as close to the actual outside
conditions as possible. This is determined by how much
time has elapsed since the vehicle has been turned off
and by vehicle speed.

When the system is set for automatic operation, sensors
will control the a i r delivery mode. Air will come from
the floor, middle or windshield outlets. The fan speed
will vary as the system maintains the selected
temperature setting.
Be careful not to put anything over the solar sensor
located in the middle of the instrument panel near the
windshield. This sensor is used by the automatic system
to regulate temperature.
To find your comfort zone, start with the 75°F (24°C)
setting and allow about 20 minutes for the system to
regulate. Turn the TEMP/AUTO knob to adjust the
temperature if necessary. If you' choose 60
O F

C),
the system will remain at that maximum cooling setting
and will not regulate fan speed. If you choose the
temperature of 90°F (32"C), the system will remain at
that maximum heating setting and will not regulate fan
speed. Choosing either maximum setting will not cause
the system to heat or cool any faster.
