DEFROST
When DEFROST is selected:

- the blower motor is ON.

SYSTEM AIRFLOW DESCRIPTION - EATC

AUTO
When AUTO is selected:
- the temperature control setting is manually set to the desired setting.
- the air inlet door actuator is automatically controlled by the EATC module, based on the temperature setting.
- the mode door actuators are automatically controlled by the EATC module based on the temperature setting.
- the A/C compressor is automatically controlled by the EATC module based on the temperature setting. The A/C compressor will not operate if the outside temperature is below approximately 6°C (43°F).
- the A/C request button or the RECIRC request button, if pressed, will transfer the system to semi-auto operation.
- the blower motor is ON. The blower motor speed is automatically controlled by the EATC module based on the temperature setting, but can be manually overridden.

OFF
When OFF is selected:
