override controls. MAX A/C is noisier than normal A/C but more

and the floor ducts. Heating and air conditioning capabilities are
provided in this mode. The air will be heated or cooled based on the

10°C (50°F) or higher, the air conditioner will automatically
dehumidify the air to prevent fogging.
