AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL (ATC)
Automatic temperature control consists of a
computer controlled heating and air
conditioning system. It is programmed to
reach and then maintain optimum levels of
comfort within the vehicle, irrespective of
climatic conditions.
FULLY AUTOMATIC OPERATION
With the engine running, press the Auto
button(3)(Auto appears in the display) and
then press the rocker switches(1)either side
of the display(2)to adjust the temperature for
the corresponding side of the vehicle, until an
agreeable comfort level (about 21°Cis
recommended) is reached. HI or LO will
appear in the display when the
maximum/minimum temperatures are
selected, in which case the system will not
function automatically.
To change the temperature scale to either
Centigrade or Fahrenheit press the two
outermost air distribution buttons(4)
simultaneously for approximately 4 seconds.NOTE:The automatic temperature control
system will not achieve temperatures on the
passenger side of the vehicle that are more
than 11
°F greater or less than the
temperature set for the drivers side.
For optimum comfort, ensure all the vents,
including those in the rear, are open and that
the slider in the centre of each vent is in its
central position.
NOTE:For ATC to function correctly, all
windows should be closed and the air intake
at the base of the windscreen must be free
from ice, snow, leaves or other debris.
