NOTE
The temperature setting remains even after the ignition switch is
turned to the "OFF". However, if the battery cables are discon-
nected, the temperature will be set to 77 F (25 C) automatically.
Set desired temperature by turning the temperature control dial; turn
the dial clockwise to raise the temperature setting and turn it counter-
clockwise to lower it.
The temperature can be set in increments of 1 F within a range of 65
– 85 F for US models and in increments of 0.5 C within a range of 18
– 32 C for Canadian models.
Even when quick cooling or warming is necessary, you do not have to
change the temperature setting. The Automatic Climate Control sys-
tem operates at maximum performance until the air in the passenger
compartment reaches to the specified temperature.
B Temperature sensors
This Automatic Climate Control system employs the several sensors.
These are very delicate parts. Therefore, if these sensors are dam-
aged, it is possible that the Automatic Climate Control system will not
properly control the air temperature in the passenger compartment.
To prevent possible damage to the sensors, please observe the fol-
lowing:
– Do not allow anything to impact the sensors.
– Be careful not to let water contact the sensors.
– Do not cover the sensors.
The sensors are found at the following locations:
– Sun-load sensor (beside the windshield defroster grille)
– In-vehicle temperature sensor (beside the temperature control
dial.)
– Ambient sensor (at the under side of the bumper)
