Instrument Panel Controls
The display window and the function selector buttons indicate
how the system is operating. The display window shows the
selected temperature and displays AUTO if you are operating in
the AUTOMATIC mode. If you override the automatic mode by
selecting any of the function selector buttons, AUTO no longer
appears in the display window and the appropriate function
selector button(s) illuminate. The display window also indicates
manual (thumbwheel) control of the fan speed when a H is
shown.
Automatic Operation
Push the AUTOMATIC button and select the desired
temperature. The selected temperature and AUTO appear in the
display window. The ATC heats or cools to achieve the set
temperature. It is important to note that if the ATC engages
your vehicle's air-conditioning, it will do so automatically
without illuminating the A/C button.
When in AUTOMATIC and weather conditions require heat, air
is sent to the floor. However, a feature is included in the ATC
to prevent blowing cold air to the floor if the engine coolant is
not warm enough to provide heating. Within three or four
minutes (of determining the engine coolant is not warm enough)
the fan speed gradually increases and airflow changes to the
floor.
If specific conditions exist (such as window fogging) the five
override buttons allow specific airflow selection. The
thumbwheel allows you to adjust the fan speed to suit your
needs.
