Automatic operation (AUTO)
The AUTO mode may be used year-round as the system automatically controls constant temperature, air flow distribution and fan speed after the desired temperature is set manually.
To turn off the heater and air conditioner, push the “OFF” button.
Cooling and dehumidified heating:
1. Push the “AUTO” button.
(The AUTO indicator light will illuminate and “AUTO” will appear on the
display.)
2. If the A/C indicator light does not illuminate, push the “A/C” button. (The
A/C indicator light will illuminate.)
3. Turn the temperature control dial (driver’s side) to set the desired
temperature.
• The temperature can be set within the following range.
— For U.S.: 60 to 90°F (16 to 32°C)
— For Canada: 64 to 90°F (18 to 32°C)
• When the DUAL indicator light is turned off:
— Pushing the driver’s side “AUTO” button changes both the driver’s and front passenger’s side temperature.
— Pushing the passenger’s side “DUAL” button changes only the front passenger’s side temperature.
(The DUAL indicator light will illuminate and “DUAL” will appear on the display.)
• To set separate desired temperatures for the driver and front passenger, push the “DUAL” button, the indicator light illuminates, and then turn the corresponding temperature control dial.
• To cancel the separate temperature setting, push the “DUAL” button, the indicator light turns off, and the driver’s side temperature setting will be applied to both the driver’s and front passenger’s sides.
A visible mist may be seen coming from the ventilators in hot, humid conditions as the air is cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a malfunction.
Heating (A/C off):
1. Push the “AUTO” button.
(The AUTO indicator light will illuminate and “AUTO” will appear on the display.).
2. If the A/C indicator light illuminates, push the “A/C” button.
(The A/C indicator light will turn off.).
3. Turn the temperature control dial to set the desired temperature.
• When the DUAL indicator light is turned off: — Pushing the driver’s side “AUTO” button changes both the driver’s and front passenger’s side temperature.
— Pushing the passenger’s side “DUAL” button changes only the front passenger’s side temperature.
(The DUAL indicator light will illuminate and “DUAL” will appear on the display.).
• To set separate desired temperatures for the driver and front passenger, push the “DUAL” button, the indicator light illuminates, and then turn the corresponding temperature control dial.
• To cancel the separate temperature setting, push the “DUAL” button, the indicator light turns off, and the driver’s side temperature setting will be applied to both the driver’s and front passenger’s sides.
• Do not set the temperature lower than the outside air temperature.
Doing so may cause the temperature not to be controlled properly.
• If the windows fog up, use dehumidified heating instead of the A/C off heating.
Dehumidified defrosting/defogging:
1. Push the “” button. (The
indicator light will illuminate.) 2. Turn the temperature control dial to set the desired temperature.
• To remove frost from the outside surface of the windshield quickly, set the temperature control and fan speed control to their maximum position.
• After the windshield is cleared, push the “AUTO” button to set to the automatic mode.
• When the “” button is pushed, the air conditioner will automatically turn on when the outside air temperature is above 23°F (−5°C)
to defog the windshield. The air recirculation mode will automatically turn off. The outside air circulation mode will be selected to improve the defogging performance.
