LCD symbols
RH temperature switch. Rocker switch that sets air
temperature target for the RH side of the vehicle
interior. Operates the same as the LH temperature
switch.
Blower switch. Rotary switch with no positive stop for
manual control of blower speeds. Rotation through
180 degrees covers complete speed range:
•
Clockwise rotation increases speed of
blowers.
•
Anti-clockwise rotation decreases speed of
blowers.
RH front seat heater switch. Push switch that operates
the RH front seat heater. Operation is independent
from the air conditioning system. The heater remains
active until the switch is pressed again. The switch
LED is illuminated while the heater is active.
Automatic mode (AUTO) switch. Push switch that
controls the on/ off selection of the automatic mode.
With the switch depressed the refrigerant system, inlet
air source, blower speed, air temperature and air
distribution are automatically controlled. When AUTO
is on:
•
The AUTO symbol is displayed.
•
The exterior air temperature is displayed.
•
The display of the blower speed and the
distribution mode ceases.
•
The ATC ECU selects fresh air and
engages the compressor. If the system
automatically switches to recirculated air or
disengages the compressor, the related
LED will not illuminate.
•
The selected air distribution LED will not
illuminate.
If an alternative distribution mode is manually
selected, the system operates in a semi-automatic
mode and:
•
The AUTO symbol extinguishes.
•
The appropriate distribution LED
illuminates.
•
The ATC ECU varies the remaining
functions to attempt to achieve/ maintain
the target air temperatures.
•
A second press of the illuminated
distribution switch returns the distribution to
automatic control.
