Automatic heating and air conditioning
The automatic climate control system is controlled by simply setting the desired temperature.
The Full Automatic Temperature Control (FATC) system automatically controls the heating and cooling system as follows;
1. Push the AUTO button. The modes, fan speeds, air intake and air-conditioning will be controlled automatically by temperature setting.
2. Turn the temperature knob to set the desired temperature.
If the temperature is set to the lowest setting, the air conditioning system will operate continuously.
3. To turn the automatic operation off, press any button except the temperature control knob. If you press the mode selection button, air conditioning button, defrost button or air intake control button, or the fan speed button, the selected function will be controlled manually while other functions operate automatically.
For your convenience and to improve the effectiveness of the climate control, use the AUTO button and set the temperature to 73°F (23°C).
NOTICE
Never place anything over the sensor located on the instrument panel to ensure better control of the heating and cooling system.
Manual heating and air conditioning
The heating and cooling system can be controlled manually by pressing buttons or turning knob(s) other than the AUTO button. In this case, the system works sequentially according to the order of buttons or knob(s) selected.
1. Start the engine.
2. Set the mode to the desired position. For improving the effectiveness of heating
and cooling;
- Heating:
- Cooling:
3. Set the temperature control to the desired position.
4. Set the air intake control to the outside (fresh) air position.
5. Set the fan speed control to the desired speed.
6. If air conditioning is desired, turn the air conditioning system on.
Press the AUTO button in order to convert to full automatic control of the system.
Mode selection
The mode selection button controls the direction of the air flow through the ventilation system.
The air flow outlet port is converted as follows:
Refer to the illustration in the “Manual climate control system”.
Air flow is directed toward the upper body and face. Additionally, each outlet can be controlled to direct the air discharged from the outlet.
Air flow is directed towards the face and the floor.
Most of the air flow is directed to the floor, with a small amount of the air being directed to the windshield and side window defrosters.
Most of the air flow is directed to the floor and the windshield with a small amount directed to the side window defrosters.
Defrost-Level
Most of the air flow is directed to the windshield with a small amount of air directed to the side window defrosters.
Instrument panel vents
The outlet vents can be opened or closed separately using the horizontal thumbwheel.
To close the vent, rotate it left to the maximum position. To open the vent, rotate it right to the desired position.
Also, you can adjust the direction of air delivery from these vents using the vent control lever as shown.
Temperature control
The temperature will increase to the maximum by turning the knob to the extreme right.
The temperature will decrease to the minimum by turning the knob to the extreme left.
When turning the knob, the temperature will increase or decrease by 2°F.
Adjusting the driver and passenger side temperature individually
1. Press the DUAL button to operate the driver and passenger side temperature individually. Turning the right temperature control knob will automatically switch to the DUAL mode as well.
2. Turn the left temperature control knob to adjust the driver side temperature.
Turn the right temperature control knob to adjust the passenger side temperature.
When the driver side temperature is set to the highest or lowest temperature setting, the DUAL mode is deactivated for maximum heating or cooling.
Adjusting the driver and passenger side temperature equally
1. Press the DUAL button again to deactivate DUAL mode. The passenger side temperature will be set to the same temperature as the driver side temperature.
2. Turn the left temperature control knob. The driver and passenger side temperature will be adjusted equally.
Air intake control
This is used to select the outside (fresh) air position or recirculated air position. To change the air intake control position, push the control button.
Recirculated air position
With the recirculated air position selected, air from the passenger compartment will be drawn through the heating system and heated or cooled according to the function selected.
Outside (fresh) air position
With the outside (fresh) air position selected, air enters the vehicle from outside and is heated or cooled according to the function selected.
NOTICE
Prolonged operation of the heater in the recirculated air position (without air conditioning selected) may cause fogging of the windshield and side windows and the air within the passenger compartment may become stale.
In addition, prolonged use of the air conditioning with the recirculated air position selected will result in excessively dry air in the passenger compartment.
WARNING
• Continued use of the climate control system operation in the recirculated air position may allow humidity to increase inside the vehicle which may fog the glass and obscure visibility.
• Do not sleep in a vehicle with the air conditioning or heating system on. It may cause serious harm or death due to a drop in the oxygen level and/or body temperature.
• Continued use of the climate control system operation in the recirculated air position can cause drowsiness or sleepiness, and loss of vehicle control. Set the air intake control to the outside (fresh) air position as much as possible while driving.
Fan speed control
The fan speed can be set to the desired speed by pushing the fan speed control button.
The higher the fan speed is, the more air is delivered.
Air conditioning
Push the A/C button to turn the air conditioning system on (indicator light will illuminate).
Push the button again to turn the air conditioning system off.
OFF mode
Push the OFF button to turn off the air climate control system. However, you can still operate the mode and air intake buttons as long as the ignition switch is in the ON position.
