The AUTO/ECON button automatically controls the
direction of air delivery for air conditioning and non-air
conditioning modes.
Automatic Operation
When the system is set for AUTO, sensors will control
the air delivery mode. Air will come from the floor,
middle or windshield outlets. The i'an 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 75°F (24°C)
setting, allow about 20 minutes for the system to
regulate. Press the red or blue temperature buttons to
adjust the temperature if necessary. If you choose 60°F
(lb"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.
With this setting, the air conditioning compressor
automatically cycles when needed to cool the air. In
cold weather, when the system senses the need for
heat, the airflow will be directed out the floor outlets.
As the interior temperature approaches a desired setting,
the blower speed will decrease. To maintain interior
comfort. the airflow may move to the instrument panel
air outlets and floor outlets (BI-LEVEL mode). On
bright, sunny days in cold weather, the airflow may
come out of the A/C outlets (A/C mode) to maintain
comfort and prevent stuffiness.
