system
NOTE
y Operate the automatic climate con-
trol system when the engine is run-
ning.
y
The blower fan rotates at a low speed
when the engine coolant temperature
is low.
For efficient defogging or dehumidify-
ing in cold weather, press the “A/C”
button.
y
Even when cooling is not necessary,
setting the temperature much lower
than the current outlet air temperature
turns on the air conditioner compres-
sor automatically and the “A/C” indica-
tor light on the control panel comes on.
y
Seven-seater models each have a
rear air conditioner. The fan speed of
the rear air conditioner can be adjust-
ed, but other adjustments (outlet air
temperature, air distribution, etc.) are
not possible for the rear air condition-
er. For details, refer to “Rear air condi-
tioner (if equipped)” in this section.
The automatic climate control system au-
tomatically controls outlet air temperature,
fan speed, air flow distribution air-inlet
control, and air conditioner compressor
operation. It activates when the “AUTO”
button is pressed, and is used to maintain
a constant, comfortable climate within the
passenger compartment.
The temperature can be set within a range
of 65 to 85 °F (18 to 32°C).
