Climate Control - Acura 2004 TL Owner's Manual

Main Menu Table of Contents
To Cool or Heat Automatically
The automatic climate control
system adjusts the fan speed and
airflow levels to maintain the interior
temperature you select.
On models with Navigation System
In the AUTO mode, the vehicle's
interior temperature is
independently regulated for the
driver and passenger. If the driver's
side of the vehicle is getting too
much sun, the system will adjust to a
lower temperature.
Using Automatic Climate Control
1. Press the AUTO button.
2. Set the desired temperature with
the temperature control buttons.
You will see AUTO in the system's
display.
When the AUTO button on the
driver's side is pressed, the
temperature control buttons on the
passenger's side are disabled, and
the interior temperature is regulated
to the temperature set on the driver's
side. When the AUTO button on the
passenger's side is pressed,
temperature can be set on the driver's
side and passenger's side separately.
The system automatically selects the
proper mix of conditioned and/or
heated air that will, as quickly as
possible, raise or lower the interior
temperature to your preference.
When you set the temperature to its
lower or its upper limit, the system
runs at full cooling or heating only. It
does not regulate the interior
temperature.

Climate Control

When you press a fan control button,
the fan is taken out of AUTO mode
and starts to run at its lowest speed.
Press the button to make
the fan run faster.
Semi-automatic Operation
You can manually select various
functions of the climate control
system when it is in fully automatic
mode. All other feature remain
automatically controlled. Making any
manual selection causes the word
AUTO in the display to go out.
To Turn Everything Off
Press the OFF button. However, a
lack of air flow can cause the
windows to fog up. It is
recommended that you keep the fan
on at all times so stale air and
moisture do not build up in the
interior and cause fogging.
