Order of Priority for Controls
• The airlflow mode control operates according to the following order of priority.
-
1. Warm-up correction
2. Airflow mode manual control
3. MAX HOT and MAX COLD Correction
4. Airflow mode automatic control
Airflow Mode Automatic Control
• The A/C amplifier calculates the mode actuator stop position (airflow mode) based on the target temperature operating the actuator.
• If the target temperature is high, the actuator stop position is set to HEAT, if the temperature is low, it is set to VENT.
Correction
Warm-up correction
• Switches the airflow mode after the engine is started in accordance with the increase in engine coolant temperature to prevent discomfort caused by cold air blown around the front passenger feet area.
MAX HOT and MAX COLD correction
• When the set temperature is at MAX HOT*1, the airflow mode is set to HEAT, when it is at MAX COLD*2, it is set to vent.
*1 : 29.0 (European (L.H.D. U.K.) specs.), 32.0 (Australian specs.)
*2 : 15.0 (European (L.H.D. U.K.) specs.), 18.0 (Australian specs.)
Airflow Mode Manual Control
• The airflow mode can be switched by operating the airflow mode selector switch and the defroster switch.
