8-6 Climate Controls
Sensors
The automatic climate control uses
sensors to maintain temperatures:
The sunlight sensor is located
on top of the dashboard. See
Instrument Panel Overview on
page 5-3.
It monitors solar radiation when
operating in AUTO mode,
adjusting temperature, fan speed
and air delivery mode.
Cooler air may be supplied to
the side of the vehicle facing
the sun.
Recirculation mode will be
activated as necessary.
Do not cover the sensor as the
system may not work properly.
The outside temperature sensor
is located in front of the radiator
and relies on air moving
across it.
It can be affected by radiant heat
when the vehicle is stationary.
To prevent false temperature
readings, the displayed
temperature will not update at
low vehicle speeds.
If the vehicle has been switched
off for less than 4 hours, the
temperature at start up will be
recalled from previous operation.
Switching climate control off
If climate control is switched off:
Background noises may still be
heard.
Recirculation and the rear
window demister can still be
used .
Cigarette smoke
Do not use recirculation if occupants
are smoking.
