Solar Sensor: Description and Operation

PHOTO SENSOR

1. The photo sensor located in the center of main crash pad assembly. 
2. The photo sensor contains a photovoltaic (sensitive to sunlight) diode. The solar radiation received by its light receiving portion, generated an

electromotive force in proportion to the amount of radiation received which is transferred to the automatic temperature control module so that the
solar radiation compensation will be performed.
